SSR - Moving Table and Chairs

[sarahothomas]

I am looking into staying at SSR for our next trip, but I would only book there if I could shift the furniture around to fit in a twin sized blow up mattress. Would it be possible to move the table and chairs from the back of the room to the front of the room near the door? When I look at pictures and layouts, it looks like there is a little extra room near the front of the door. If I could move at least the table and one chair over there, it looks like I could squeeze the blow up mattress in front of the pull out couch (the couch will be pulled out and used as a bed, too).

What kind of room?

People really don’t recommend moving things around in rooms though, even IF it’s possible (and it generally isn’t ).

What size room?

Oops, just realized I left that piece of information out. This would be a Studio.

From what I can see in pictures there won't be room. Not unless you plan on blocking the door

I've never stayed at SSR, so I can't answer the OP's question. However, we had to move pretty much everything to open the pull out sofa and murphy bed at Boardwalk villas. There was a coffee table, two chairs, and a large sitting chair that were in the way of the pull out beds. I don't see any issue with moving something that is moveable in order to accommodate a bed.

All that said, for safety, the room exits shouldn't be blocked.

I am trying to get BWV through DVC rental, but no luck so far. The murphy bed + pull out sofa would be perfect for us.

The problem at SSR is less "if they move" and more "if they move with space for an airbed and the ability to walk to the bathroom or out the door."

Definitely not enough room. The studios are really tight without trying to use an air mattress.

DVC has asked members (and if you are renting points, you are considered a guest of the member and expected to follow the rules) not to move furniture around because of the damage it tends to cause. Plan on leaving the furniture where it is and put your air bed at the entrance to the studio. If you are putting four adults in a studio and one using an air bed, you will be extremely crowded. Go with a one bedroom where you have more room to put an air bed.

Thanks everyone. All 1 bedrooms are out of our budget. My brother in law is autistic and I recently found out he is very uncomfortable sleeping in the bed with other people, even his mom, so that is why we need the additional sleeping space. I think I'll hold out for BWV Studio where one of us could utilize the murphy bed.

I hope one of you is small because the murphy bed is less than twin sized. They call it bunk sized. This is from the DVC website.

1 queen-size bed, 1 full-size sleeper sofa, 1 single pull-down bed (29" x 67")

Yes, my mother-in-law is 5'2" and 98 lbs. I've slept on one before too, and it wasn't too bad.

We recently stayed there for a night and had no problem with a twin air mattress. There was no need to move anything around.

Where did you put the mattress?

 

[Lynne M]

I think a twin mattress would fit in front of the vanity/sink area. You'd be stepping over the person if you had to use the bathroom during the night, but I'm pretty sure it would fit.
