Good morning and thanks to @PrincessGidget for the reminder!

Lots of people on here love 1 bedrooms. I don’t get them. I don’t think I’ve ever stayed in one. Done lots of studios, 2 bed and GVs but never a 1 br. It’s not really that many more points to go up to a 2 br. Or you could do 2 studios for the price of a 1 bedroom, and sleep twice as many. Of course you’re sacrificing kitchen and w/d, but still. Maybe it’s just me, but I just don’t get it.

We never thought we'd do 1BR for just DH and I, but we've found the kitchen, w/d, and dedicated living room/lounge area make it much more enjoyable for us. We like being able to make a quick, lighter meal of eggs or grilled cheese in the room if we want. I like being able to easily do laundry right in the room if we get caught in a downpour or sweat through a couple changes of clothes, and it's nice if one person wants to stay up later, get up earlier, or take a nap if the other doesn't. They can go in the bedroom and the other can watch TV or whatever in the living room. DH or I still often have to do a few hours of work while we're gone, and we can have separate spaces to do that.

I've actually never done a studio and have 0 plans to do so. I'm way past the age of sleeping in the same room as my kids, especially for a week+ long trip. I will gladly shell-out the points for a 1bd or maybe even a 2bd, even knowing that the points value is worse.

I have never stayed in a one bedroom since owning my membership. I plan to stay in one for one night (cabin) on my next trip. It doesn’t really count though because we will all be sleeping together and NO laundry.

Some day I’ll try a 1 bedroom- just not during Food and Wine!!

It’s just DH and me but depending on the trip, we go with 1 beds instead of studios sometimes. We like them for runDisney weekends for the king bed, W/D and kitchen. Also love them for summer trips when we’ll be spending more time at the resort mid day. More room to relax and again the W/D. The rest of the time we’ll book a studio if available!
