I really don't understand why it is weird. I wouldn't want to share for an extended vacation because I like my space, but for a night or two it's no problem. Maybe it's regional? lol
I mean I prefer my own space under pretty much every circumstance, but I don't think doing it is weird provided you all get along You're still ok in my book

By regional do you mean like...the region of the hotel room you are sharing with your ILs?
I would share a room with my IL's if there was a natural disaster and space was very limited or something. Or the zombie apocalypse, or an asteroid or something.
Hell no. Especially in a zombie apocalypse. The only thing worse than sharing a room for the night is being alone with them for the rest of our lives.
The only thing I can think of is mommy daddy attachment issues if you find this okay. Maybe I'm projecting my feelings based on my SIL who has serious mommy issues.
Neither DH nor I have attachment issues with our parents, and we would be okay with this in certain circumstances. A relaxing vacation with no private space? No. But I can foresee non-apocalyptic scenarios where we would be willing to share.

I have mommy attachment issues because I don't hate my in-laws and don't mind sharing a room occasionally?
Maybe it's because I don't have kids so I don't need to go to a hotel for wild sex with my husband, or I am able to vacation alone often enough with my husband so giving up a night of hotel sex isn't a big deal. I don't see how it is creepy to share a bed with my husband while his parents are a few feet away. It's not a matter of cost, it just isn't a big deal.

Vegas is not the apocalypse.
I know; it was tongue-in-cheek reference to other people saying only in extreme scenarios. My response was based on the initial poll question: would you be willing to share a room with your ILs. So I and many people are saying, "yes, in certain situations."
For a more specific question of, "Would you share with your ILs in a Vegas vacation," my answer would be no.
Nope. Nope. Nope. NOpe. Nope. It would have to be DIRE circumstances to make this happen. Ever. Even sharing a condo with them is pushing it.
We're adults. We get our own hotel room, period.
I will amend that last statement - we do have friends from college with whom we'll still share a hotel room with. There is something about our college buddies, who we all REALLY saw in every stage of dress and circumstances in college, that makes it no big deal.
But parents and newer friends? Separate. Always separate.
Here's a room sharing horror story for you just in case you are actually thinking about it. We drove to Canada last summer with my in laws and thought sharing a room in Montana on the way there would be fine. We would get there late and leave early so no biggie, right?! Except I had some super gastrointestinal distress in the middle of the night. Didn't lock the door. Someone opened it, the light was in my eyes, but thinking it was my H I just frowned and gave the thumbs down. When I was done, everyone seemed to be sleeping. I think you can guess where this story is going. In the morning, I asked and it was NOT my H that saw me pooping furiously in the middle of the night. I will never ask which one of them it was, but I have my suspicions it was his dad. I am dying all over thinking about it. Don't share rooms unless you get vacation constipation!!!
Hi, new member!
Love that your name is tunasalad, and this is the first post I will remember from you.

Isn't jenny1980 doing this in NYC with her in-laws?
I don't find it super weird. Obviously not preferable, but not omg you must be such a freak with psychological problems to even think about sharing a room with your ILs or parents.

Oh, LOL.

NeXT she will feel sorry for our husbands who seemingly only get it on in hotel rooms.
I wouldn't for a long vacation, but for a short, we are here for a wedding, sure, why not. Funny thing is, I went to Vegas with my in-laws (we did not share a room) but it would have been my FIL and MIL out painting the town red, where I would have crashed with a book/slept. Vegas was not my thing.

We don't have kids.
There's still no amount of money that would make it worth for me to find out if my dad snores, or my mom talks in her sleep, or what either of them look like waking up. Also, I probably have to wear a bra to bed, because god forbid I have a headlights situation with my parents.
