Do it the old-fashioned way - have everybody bed down in the Great Hall.
8) Only the nobles and important people get "quarters". You might want
to lay in a supply of dogs to keep the 'figs warm though.
If you insist on beds, make them much smaller than "modern" beds. Beds
were *tiny* back then.
The soldiers might not *need* a chest each (I'm assuming you're using the
treasure chests?) to hold their personal possessions. They've probably
only got one or two changes of clothes, and they probably keep a lot of
their personal possessions (knife, money, etc) with them. It's not like
they had a lot of stuff...think of all the things you might have in a
chest but then remove all the stuff that didn't exist in the middle
ages and you'll see that there's a very tiny amount of stuff left.
