[quote=Anonymous]We have 3 kids - now ages 6, 11, and 15.  When our third child was little, we ALWAYS just had her in a crib.  Worked fine. She was happy to sleep in a pack and play until she was pretty old and didn't fit in it anymore.  She loved having her own little bed.

Even now, we generally sleep in one room with two queens and a rollaway if we can get one.  If no rollaway is availabe, 15 year old and mom sleep in one bed, dad with the two younger kids in the other.   Sometimes one kid will sleep on a sofa.  I usually call the hotel when reserving and ask if it's okay to have 5 in a room, since many websites won't let me book 5.   Once we happened to have a sleeping bag in the car and DH slept on the floor.

I guess we are frugal when it comes to hotel rooms.  We generally stay in nicer hotels - like $200 - 300 and up per night -- and so reserving a second room each night on a vacation would add a few thousand dollars to the trip expense.   Our view is that we're asleep most of the time anyway, so it's not the biggest burden to be in one room at night.  We'd rather spend the money on fabulous meals. [/quote]
