**********************************
In Thailand, most rooms are equipped with one or two queen/kingsize beds. For a booking of 2 adults + 1 or 2 children, there may be only 1 or 2 large beds available in total. Consequently, it may happen that in a room for 2 adults + 1 or 2 children, a child has to sleep in the parents' bed.
