[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. We are [b]entitled[/b] to one small bedroom. There are 2 other bedrooms, but they will be occupied by the 2 couples paying for the house. We are not paying - I figured we would end up paying for a grocery run.[/quote]

You wouldn't be "entitled" to anything. You are being graciously [b]offered[/b] something.[/quote]

Bingo.  Op, you sound a little bit like an entitled brat.  Sorry. I hope you aren't...a brat.[/quote]

Op here. The word entitled was in response to a question worded "how many rooms are you entitled to".

I'm actually surprised how this post blew up. It has been the other posters calling MIL selfish or cheap. I have said NO such thing. I am concerned about the logistics. MIL does have a tendency to not think things through fully, especially with regards to the kids. She forgets we have them when she plans things. In regards to this entire situation, I do not think she is rude at all. I think she booked the house and invited us as an after thought. Which is a completely valid thing to do. I asked here for tips on making this work or whether we should back out. We have never taken a trip like this and clearly many of you have, and have opinions on how to or if we should make it work.

I appreciate the feedback, and as I stated previously, we will play it by ear and find a way to make it work. I don't see how that makes me the bad guy. Yes, i would rather larger accommodations. Who wouldn't? [/quote]
