A dedicated 2 bedroom can only be a 2 bedroom, it cannot be split into a 1 bedroom and studio. There is only 1 entrance (no entrance in the second bedroom like a lockoff). There is also no kitchenette in the 2nd bedroom. There are 2 queen beds in the second bedroom (except some at BCV), not the 1 queen and 1 sofabed like in most studios (except OKW). It's really a matter of preference. Usually a family with children would want a dedicated so that there is not a door in the second bedroom. Groups with adults in both bedrooms may want a lockoff so the second bedroom has it's own entrance, a kitchenette and a separate balcony.
The dedicated units also only have one internet connection, not two like in a lock-off, and they only have one AC thermostat that controls all off the rooms. In the lock-off, the second bedroom has it's own thermostat.

A separate air conditioning unit, a separate door and my own coffee maker/fridge/micro. Hmmmmm, maybe we'll go with a lockoff 2BR when we take the in-laws. And to boot we won't have to look at the mess the kids (and the big kid, BIL) makes.
