Should three adults book two hotel rooms in Sharm El Sheikh, or is a standard room with an extra bed enough?

TL;DR
Hotels in Sharm El Sheikh commonly accommodate three guests in a standard room by adding one extra bed, so a second room is not always necessary. However, the allocated room category or view may differ—for example, Garden View instead of Sea View.
The new large standard rooms comfortably fit 3 adults — based on staying in them twice, even a 4th bed can fit, plenty of space.
For three adults, a standard room is commonly assigned with one extra sleeping space. Ask the hotel in advance to confirm the bed configuration and room size.
A party of two adults and a 14-year-old, 165 cm tall, received a regular room even though Standard Sea View had been booked; the hotel assigned a larger Standard Garden View room instead.
If separate rooms are essential, do not rely on upgrading at reception: in the reported case, a two-room unit was unavailable even for an extra payment. Book that room type in advance.
