well, i would be sad to put the crate in a separate room unless your puppy is ok with it, because dogs are pack animals, and they would be so sad to be by themselves.
as far as sleeping in your bedroom. well, just make sure you DON"T let the puppy sleep in your bed!...milu started sleeping in our bed, and she won't sleep in her own bed anymore. so there is no "alone time" anymore...we are trying to fix this, but it's VERY HARD!!! milu crys and breaks our hearts, and how can we choose alone time over cute furball of love? lol
