to be the most direct: the `{ get; set;}` part is not relevant for you. The `Extra_Bed_Configurations[][]` means, that this field is an Array of objects of type `Extra_Bed_Configurations[]`, which is just an Array of `Extra_Bed_Configurations`. (Also use google and the MSDN documentation for this stuff in the future) — TheHowlingHoaschd, Oct 12 '16 at 13:27

That's a public property of type jagged array (array of arrays) Extra_Bed_Configurations

Note:

multidimenstional: Extra_Bed_Configurations[,] extra_bed_configurations

jagged: Extra_Bed_Configurations[][] extra_bed_configurations

sample declaration of a 2x2

extra_bed_configurations = new Extra_Bed_Configurations[][]{ 
        new Extra_Bed_Configurations[] {
            new Extra_Bed_Configurations() { type = "foo"}, 
            new Extra_Bed_Configurations() { type = "foo"}
        },
        new Extra_Bed_Configurations[] { 
            new Extra_Bed_Configurations() { type = "foo"}, 
            new Extra_Bed_Configurations() { type = "foo"}}
    };

public is access modifier, which doesn't restrict any access to property;
Extra_Bed_Configurations[][] is jagged array;
extra_bed_configurations is name of your property respectively;
{ get; set; } means that this property is auto-implemented.

{get;set} after a member creates getters and setters for those types. Here's the duplicate c#: getter/setter
