What is better, Studio room or standard (DH, DD, DS and me) ?I am worried about space. Anyone done both?
We have done both room types and we far preferred the regular hotel room. We are two adults and one child under age 10. We stayed in the hotel room for 7 nights and studio 12 nights. I really wished I had the hotel room about half way through our studio stay.
We preferred having two real beds rather than one bed and one sofa bed. We found the sofa bed was hard to walk around when it was put out given the irregular configuration of the room. We felt like the regular room felt much larger even though it is only about 26 square feet larger (or about that).
We didn't find the microwave that useful for us, but if you plan to use it then I would consider that in the choice.
If you plan to watch movies in your room or spend any time watching TV (some nights we just wanted to eat pizza and rent a movie from the community room)... then the hotel room is better since both beds face the TV (the couch/sofa bed faces the other way so hard to watch TV from both the bed and sofa).
That was our experience and certainly may be unique to us, but sharing in case it is helpful for you.
I think the real advantage to a DVC Studio over a standard room is the kitchen facilities. Nice to be able to fix something in the morning, or an afternoon snack.
We have 2 adults two children 12,9 going.Depends on your requirement too. Do specify them for a precise answer.
