I sometimes question the utility of guest rooms.

I've often seen people layout their house so the guest room is in some prime area of the house and the workroom they use all the time is in a horrible dungeon.

I've always thought that the rooms should be allocated based on their utility.

I personally agree with you, but I guess it all comes down to how much utility you put in hospitality and being a good host. My girlfriend feels really bad about only being able to offer guests a sofa bed in the living room to sleep on, so do her being able to offer guests a private room with a comfortable bed has a huge utility.
