Keep toilet and bathroom separate or knock down wall and integrate?

We moved into our house a year ago. We have two toilets - one downstairs toilet and one upstairs - a tiny room with a toilet and then the actual bathroom is in a separate room. We can't decide whether to keep the toilet in its own room (and add a little sink because the walking next door to wash hands is a bit rank) or knock down the wall and incorporate it into the bathroom.

I'm leaning towards keeping it separate on the basis that with four of us and two toilets it means that we can keep the toilet rush in the mornings separate from bath / shower times and keep the bathroom fresher smelling(!) DH thinks it's weird and wants the traditional option of toilet, shower, bath, sink all in one room.

Has anyone faced this choice and what did you decide to do? And did it work for you?

I’m knocking mine through as I want a separate shower cubicle, as opposed to the over bath shower. We have a bathroom up in the loft and a downstairs toilet, so should be fine that regard.
