So, massive first world problem but...

We have a family that we're good friends with who unfortunately live on the other side of the UK. We meet up 2 or 3 times a year, usually staying at each others houses to keep the cost down. For context, we both live in decent sized houses with 4 double bedrooms, and each have 2 children aged between 5 and 9.

When they stay with us we put our 2 kids in together so their 2 can have a bedroom, with their parents sleeping in the spare room.

When we stay with them, they put us all in the spare room and their kids each stay in their own rooms. Their spare room is only just big enough for this meaning we don't have much space for our stuff and we don't sleep well as our kids are excited to be away and wake up early.

Aibu to be a bit irritated by this and wish they would put their (nt, same sex, easy going, good sleeping) kids in together when we visit so we can have a more relaxing visit? And if not aibu to put them all in our spare room together when they visit next month?

Disclaimer - of course I'm not going to put them in together when they visit. I'm also not going to say anything as it's not a friendship dealbreaker or anything. I'm just interested in whether others would be irritated by this.

If you were in a bnb you would be in the same room I'm sure. It's short term so I would just deal with it tbh. Surely you'll only be sleeping in there anyway not spending loads of time in there
