Compared to, say, a Hampton Inn room with 2 DBLs, a top end Italy hotel with 2 DBLs is often much smaller than what we're used to and -- call me crazy --- but, to me, the beds are not doubles, but true twins. Thus, getting four people in to one room could get nutty real fast.

I'd hate for you to attempt check in only to realize that what you'd planned was insufficient.
And in order to avoid a family's being miserable all piled-up on each other, the hotel will not allow quad occupancy. Period. That's just not the type client they are looking to attract.
