Would you think it’s ok to share hotel room with married male friend/acquaintance???

Not sure if this is the right place to post this, will try to keep it short but have just had a row with a friend and don't know who is right.

We both volunteer for an organisation and went out on an unofficial ‘team bonding’ meal and drinks thing last night. We live in the sticks and the night out was in a city 45 minutes away, friend offered me a lift but then ended up going off with her boyfriend in the early hours and saying she’d give me a lift home in the morning so I was stuck there. One of the guys we were with (from same organisation but different branch) said that he was staying in a hotel and had a family room so offered me the spare bed but I said no and ended up having to spend £80 on a taxi home.

Now i’ve spoken to my friend and she doesn’t get why i’m annoyed with her, said I had the offer of somewhere to stay and was stupid not to accept it. I said I didn’t think most people would have accepted, this guy has always seemed nice and it seemed an innocent invitation but we’d been drinking and I don’t know him well enough to be sure and didn’t want to put myself in that situation. I’m single but he is married so didn’t think he should really be offering anyway.

Friend says i’m being stupid and that it would have been fine. What would you think? Would you be ok with it if it was your husband?

No. I wouldn't do it.

You are absolutely right to say no. I would have done the same.

I wonder if she would be suggesting the same thing if her partner was offering a work colleague of his a bed for the night!
