Fallout 3 Hints

Where all can I rent beds?

  • Unfortunately, there aren't very many places, and each one charges you 120 caps, which can really add up over time. You'll want to return to your house and sleep there as often as possible.

    * Megaton (Zone 8/3): Nova in Moriarty's Saloon at south end of town
    * Rivet City (Zone 9/64): Vera Weatherly or "Mister Buckingham" robot in Upper Deck area
    * Museum of History (Zone 9/44): Carol in Carol's Place in ghoul Underworld area

    NOTE: The bed in Rivet City may stay usable forever after you pay for it the first time.

    NOTE: After you install the Broken Steel add-on game, you can get a new level 22 perk called Deep Sleep that will allow you to get the Well Rested XP bonus by sleeping in any bed.
