Is it weird to share a hotel room with only a double bed with a small child

Was hoping to book a stay in one of the center parks hotels with my son who is seven. All the twin rooms have gone but there are still some with only a double bed left. Would it be weird for us to get that one?

If the room has capacity for three they will provide a bed

or are you planning on sneaking him in?!

No it’s fine. I’ve done it with one of my dds when she was about 6. She fell asleep while I read a book for a while. It was nice x

Of course not he’s 7 not 17 does at that age most kids will still come in and share if they are ill, have a nightmare or just cos they want to.

Of course not! Any time I go away for a night with DD we share a double bed. She’s 5 but I imagine we’ll still do it when she’s 7. We went on a cruise last year and all 4 of us shared a bed!

I do with mine all the times. No issue

Not at all. Go ahead and have a lovely time.

Not at that age, no. I’d have shared a double with either of my sons at 7. In fact, DS2 was still sneaking into ours occasionally at that age …

Of course it’s not weird!
