[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Often I see on here posters mentioning that they "need" a suite or a separate room for their baby in their hotel.   There is no way they can share a room with their child while on vacation for a few days.   I have to admit, it makes me roll my eyes a bit.   We are a family of 6 and have no problem sharing rooms with our kids (sometimes even all 6 of us in one room, if it has 2 Queen beds plus a pull out sofa!)   Our travel budget is pretty limited and I just can't see spending tons of money for separate sleeping accommodations when it's only a few nights.

It was like that for me growing up too--I grew up with 2 brothers and 2 parents and EVERY time we went to a hotel, we got a room with 2 double beds and a rollaway cot.

So my question for those of you who consider it very important to have a separate room to sleep in from your child--was it like that for you growing up?   On family vacations, did each family member have separate hotel rooms/large suites with multiple bedrooms?    If not, and you vacationed more like me (whole family stuffing in one room)--is it just that you have a much larger vacation budget than your parents did?   Are you more "high maintenance" than your parents were?[/quote]

Curious, OP, how do you manage early toddler bedtimes? Does everyone go to sleep at 8 pm?[/quote]

My kids are older now (youngest is 8) but when they were younger they would usually fall asleep on the drive home from whatever we did that day.    We'd carry them in asleep and they were pretty sound sleepers so Dh and I could still quietly watch tv or whatever and they wouldn't wake up.[/quote]
