Polynesian - Studio vs Standard Room

[mlayton14]

Price being equal, what would you choose? 2 adults, and 2 kids (9 & 7) and why? I know, such first world problem

I would choose the standard room, because it has two queen beds and a sofa bed that is more easily converted. The studio is a queen, a sofa bed and a Murphy bed.

Regular room. I would much rather have a real bed than a pull out sofa.

Well..... I wouldn't be sleeping on the pull out sofa, the kids would

I am really hoping when we do another trip to rent a studio- a, I prefer the building locations and b, my kids would need the pull-outs. I like everyone having their own spaces and they get excited sleeping on pull-outs.

We are in the same discussion at my house. We stayed in a studio in October with two kids (6&8) and it had good and bad points. The fold-down bed was great, but the pullout was a pain-- so many pillows to move around, and no really good places to put them. We folded the sofa up each morning just so we could move around the room. However, having two bathrooms was great. My biggest complaint about regular Poly rooms was the fact that the vanity was in the bathroom proper (or it was when we stayed there in 2014.) the rooms are super spacious, though, which is nice. I'm still up in the air about which to book for our next trip.

A studio will have a microwave and toaster, a standard room will not. Both have small fridges & a coffee maker.

I have the same dilemma but I still have 2 years before I need to figure it out!

We are a family of 5 so the 2 showers is really what I like. The next time we go my kids will be 17, 14 & 12. (I think).

All of us in one room is not an issue, granted they are 14, 12 & 9 now so I don't need a bigger room.

It's the shower oh and request my beloved Tokelau since that is my favorite longhouse.

In the regular room we requested a microwave and I used it for am oatmeal and making my son Rice Krispie treats since he has a few food allergies.

I am thinking my kids, read my oldest, will complain about the sleeping conditions, aka a pull out but too bad she should be lucky she is going!

Anyways, dh and I have not slept in the same bed for a Disney trip in years. One of us has always had a kid with us, we'll both of us and one slept in the pull out which they all fought for because it was their own bed!

Two showers out weigh the pull out beds, just think how quick that process will go.

See, as far as I'm concerned everyone spends more time in bed than in the shower!

I recently asked this question on here and got a lot of the same answers. I ended up asking my boys because they'd be the ones sleeping on the pull out sofa vs. a bed and they both said they'd prefer the standard room with a real bed. I just booked us a standard room and I know everyone will be happy.
