Does this bed need a box spring?

It is a panel bed with side rails, so it is designed to hold a mattress and box spring. Check the slat support before using a mattress alone.

Is the headboard actually padded?

Yes. The headboard is upholstered over padding, so it is softer to lean against than a solid wood panel.

It takes a standard queen mattress, 60 by 80 inches. Standard queen bedding and sheets fit.

It ships flat and needs assembly with the included hardware. Two people help, since the headboard and rails are bulky.

Vacuum it with a soft brush attachment and blot spills with a mild fabric cleaner. Avoid soaking the fabric.

Only if the frame provides solid slat support. Otherwise use a box spring or add a slat kit so the mattress does not sag.
