COVID safety guidelines still in place limiting crew rest facility to one FA per break. This is not safe; regardless of pandemic.1) Safety guidelines state that when fighting fires; there must be a minimum of X FAs present to fight the fire; gather needed equipment and communicate with the Flight Deck. This cannot be accomplished with only 1 FA allowed in crew rest facility per break period. If a fire were to break out; this could affect the safety of the flight itself. If the lone FA allowed to break in the crew rest facility were to have a sudden health issue; it would also be dangerous as he/she might not be able to alert the rest of the crew in time.2)  Since being forced to take scheduled breaks in the cabin as a temporary change due to the pandemic myself and other FAs have suffered fatigue due to adverse conditions.  In the cabin; we are subject to PA announcements; noise from passengers; foot traffic; and light coming into the cabin from open window shades.This flight had two families with infants and a toddler seated in the X zone; where our current alternative break seats are located. One family seated at row X and Y had technical issues with their video system and moved seats back and forth multiple times then back to original seats-creating noise and disturbance. Toddler constantly talked very loudly (as toddlers do) to her mother; grandmother and television shows throughout the flight.For these reasons; I myself took my scheduled contractual break in the crew rest facility (although I was not the most senior) and also allowed some FAs above the 1 currently allowed if others did not object. However; the FAs entered the crew rest facility one at a time and closed curtains immediately after themselves; kept masks on during their breaks and used alcohol or bleach wipes on areas they touched.
