AITA for moving to a hotel because my wife’s family insisted I sleep on the couch?

ALL IN ALL!
The author and his wife got married last summer and were invited to stay with their family for a few days. They had a nice dinner with her family, but things went south when they insisted they sleep separately. The author had a bad back and the couch was uncomfortable, so they decided to leave and book a hotel.
The next morning, the author’s wife asked him to apologize for leaving, and he agreed to keep the peace. However, she later told him that they will not apologize and insist he stay on the couch for the rest of their visit. He is now livid and no longer willing to offer any apology.
The author’s wife’s sisters are now bothering him, saying this is just the way their parents are, and he needs to give in and stay on the couch for the rest of the trip before it turns into a family feud. From his perspective, he is willing to treat the rest of the trip as a solo vacation, go sightseeing, and meet his wife at the airport at the end of the week.
The author took advice from one of the posters to ask his wife and her sisters to meet him for dinner apart from their parents. They agreed that it was okay for their parents to act the way they did, and that it was best to let things like this go. The author decided to push back a bit and moved to a hotel by the beach in San Diego for the rest of the week. The wife and her sisters are coming down in a separate car after their parents leave for work, and the author is not concerned about their dad throwing a conniption fit when they leave without telling him.
