Is there room for a single aero bed in a studio?

[Jillpie]

We'll be staying at OKW and BWV studios next April. Just wondering if there is room for this and then just deflate it each morning for space. thanks!

BWV studio--definitely yes. You could fit a twin aero bed either in the area in front of the bathroom sink and closet, or in the alcove of the front entry way.
OKW studio--no way! There is no place I can think of that someone would not have to step over the aero bed to get to something in the room.
BUT let us not forget that ALL DVC villas other than those at OKW are "so tiny they are essentially useless". Yeah, right.

If you put the bed in front of the bathroom sink and closest or in the alcove of the front entry way, will someone not to have step over the bed to get to those areas also.

Either place its going to be inconvenient but yes there is probably room at both places.

In the front entry way, yes you would have to step over the twin aero bed to open the door, but since many families go to bed at the same time, this is usually not a problem.
In front of the bathroom sink/closet...no you would not have to step over the twin aero bed to get into or out of the bathroom. Nor would the aero bed interfere with the usuage of the kitchenette area.
There is a lot more space in the way a studio is set up at BWV, BCV, and VWL for a twin aero bed than an OKW studio. I honestly can not think of where you could put a twin aero bed in an OKW studio other than in the bathtub or out on the balcony!
Just wanted to add that we have never brought an aero bed to any hotel anywhere, however I have been in a BWV villa many, many times and also have been in OKW, etc quite a few times, so I am very familar with the room layout and available floor space that would be required for a twin aero bed.

Is the problem that you need 3 beds? I know sometimes with oposite sex children two beds is not enough. At BWV with the pull out for one person, could the second person have the aero bed crosswise at the foot of the pull out? Not sure there would be enough room there or not, but it would not be in the way if there is. At OKW, you could do the same thing if you push the table and chairs over and toward the beds a bit. If you have smaller children, the extra queen size bed at OKW is doable if you have them sleep across the bed. There might also be room between the beds for night only and the mattress pushed under one of the beds for daytime. This is probably the best solution, since those using the beds can still get out along the walls. We used to have a problem like this when staying in some of the deluxe resorts when our DD and DH were teens. We usually got the bunk bed rooms for that reason.

We stayed in a studio at OKW just this past February. We had a twin aero mattress and had absolutely no problem fitting it either at the foot of the two beds, or between the bed and the french doors to the balcony. We didn't even deflate it during the day....it slid perfectly underneath one of the beds, and we just dragged it out at night. Our issue is that 14-year old DD 12-year DS cannot share a bed.

BWV...I can't help you with this one~

Hope this helps...

We did it last year at both BWV and BCV. Just as Diane is suggesting in her earlier post. At the foot of the pulled out sleep sofa. It fit, but just barely.

We have also used one in the area described by BWVDee, near the sink. It was not a problem at all and fit fine.
