Bedroom with it's own bathroom.
Even better is a den/office and separate bedroom with it's own bathroom.

A bedroom can be used as a den.
A den can't be used as a bedroom unless it has a closet.

Most definitely bedroom. As folks age stairs become an issue and that's when a downstairs bedroom comes in handy.

Just to provide a counter stance:
Go for the den, make it a kick ass library/piano room/kids room/2nd TV/man den/getaway spot
I assume it's either den or bedroom right? Majority of new homes in Irvine, you enter and there's a boring grandma bedroom to the left or right. Then you walk straight to get your great room/kitchen combo. Differentiate yourself with a well decorated secondary space. Add a French door to the den if possible (Maricopa plan 2?).
When the time comes to sell you'll agent will advertise it as a 4th bedroom down regardless if it's a den or a room with a closet

Ps9 - you hit the ball out of the park regarding the false advertising of the den and advertising it is a bedroom. I also have seen agents advertise that there is ac when their isn't. Then the agent will tell me it's like only $1 grand for a central air unit with installation. (Which is false, maybe in the 1970s)
I have also seen adding sq ft that is not permitted.
