I hate wet rooms!

We are on a weekend break at an air B and B. It's very pretty, very modern but urgh I missed the bit in the description about the wet room. Now everyone is taking turns trying to do morning smelly poos and have showers in one giant cubicle. The toilet is wet, the floor is wet, there's long hair everywhere even after the DDs have squeegeed the floor. It's all just gross.

Whose idea was that?!? Yes let's just remove the screen and let them hose down the whole room!

And to top it all of youngest DS did a poo that clung, the only time I've been grateful for a toilet brush, and the top fell off into the toilet.

Bleurgh.

Love mine. I have a glass screen between the shower area and toilet, and it means that a tiny shower room has a spacious showering area, rather than a tiny cubicle that's an arse to clean.

Thought they were a good idea until I tried one. The clue is in the name. Should be everything is wet room

Need to be well designed. I have a disability but bad memory of wet room. It didn’t drain properly and nowhere was dry. Had to leave slippers outside (can’t use flip flops). Fell and broke my leg.

That really is my pet hate. A beautiful bedroom in a hotel with a bloody bath ploned in the corner of it. How is that meant to be sexy?

I suppose your partner can watch you luxuriate in the bath, while keeping an eye on BBC News on the hotel telly. Or you can share the bath, but I wouldn’t fancy that since DH is a terrible bath overfiller and I’d be scared of the water running over and ruining the carpet.

I once encountered an even more hideous version of this where the entire bathroom, bog and all, was just a glass enclosure. You got privacy because the glass would kind of darken when you turned the bathroom lights on, BUT the glass offered no soundproofing and… well you can imagine how unromantic things got.
