For perspective: I'm a rising junior. My freshman year I lived mostly in a single in the dorms, then sophomore year I moved into the AGD nuthouse and had a different roommate each semester. Our house is set up so that the president is guaranteed a single, and the rest of the rooms are doubles with one triple. Three other doubles can be made into triples and the original triple a quad if necessary.

I'm friends with both sisters I roomed with, but first semester was admittedly difficult since the first sister and I were SO different personality wise and had different schedules/different things that ticked us off. Second semester my roommate was aiming for a single that opened up (which she didn't ultimately get) and I ended up moving in with my best friend (who needed a new roommate since her other best friend/roomie went abroad). It was the best idea ever -- even though she's my best friend, we get along very well as roommates. Similar schedules, same rules about "what goes", and we're living together next year as well.

I've always been more of an introvert and ALWAYS had my own room growing up, but I LOVE living with my roommate. I think it depends on personalities more than anything. Sure, you love all your sisters and have your best friends, but it's definitely easier to live in close quarters with some than others!
