What cheeses me off

Hotels who have showers over bathtub. These should banned and nothing anyone ever has to say in defense of them will ever get me to change my mind

Dubbed "shubs" by some people. They are everywhere, even in some of the nicest hotels (admittedly in the lower tier room types), and sometimes you can't even see if you're going to get one based on the hotel pictures when booking them.

Not a fan but I put up with them, though I carefully note where all the contact points are. WCMO about shubs are inadequate covers from shub to rest of bathroom, i.e. long enough curtain or mystery screens (e.g. glass) that are only long enough for someone to crowd in next to the showerhead.

I thought you would have made sure that you didn't book one of them - name and shame

Usually I investigate and book more wisely but I left trip planning quite late and the original room we booked was not available when we first arrived (early) so accepted this room without asking about the shower.

Did not get one thru the entire campaign. I knew there was a reason I'm not on any social media.

You do not want to be in Brisbane right now looking for a place to rent.

Around a dozen people at the inspection in Auchenflower on Thursday, there were 2 of us inspecting another place in Auchenflower this morning a little early and when we were leaving about a dozen turned up, then another inspection in St Lucia for an average unit and about 30 people queued for inspection. We left after about 10 minutes near back of queue and agent had not yet turned up. There is no way 30 people are going to inspect in the alloted 10 minute inspection time.

The quality of rentals very poor, over inflated rents and as soon as anything half decent turns up its gone quick.

Lucky the agent gave us close to 4 months notice.

P.S. Someone mentioned that Brisbane has overtaken Melbourne in cost of living. I can see why.
