After I posted my thread about high-rise living, it got me to think more about the hotel I was in and weird hotel rooms I have been in in the past when sharing a room with friends and such.

What weird hotel rooms situations have you seen/been part of?

I haven't done a whole lot of traveling, but there is one room which I clearly remember:

There were 5 of us sharing a hotel room in Florida. We called it a hotel, but it was sort of like rented condos, but just one large room, so think part-condo-part-hotel room.

Anyway, when we booked it, it said it slept 6. We had 5 people, so no problem. We walk into the place, and the first thing we notice is that there isn't a bathroom....everything is integrated into the room. So, you walk in from the hall and there are three king beds...to sleep 6. But, there is no bathroom. Instead, you had a wall with two sinks, TV, fridge, then next to that stuff is a single shower stall with a completely clear door! Then to the left of that is a toilet with a wood door.

So, how would 5 of us take showers without being seen (we were all prudes at this point in my life). For the first two mornings, people would leave while someone showered, or just the girls would stick around while the other girls showered etc. This got to be really dumb, so some people tried to hang long towels over the door and everyone would turn around while someone undressed to shower, but you could still see well above their knees and that didn't really work, either. So then the last two mornings, no one showered. I offered to just be normal about it and not make people leave or turn around, but then everyone teased me as being the perv, so I felt the dumbest of all. Oh, and people would get changed/dressed in the toilet part since there was a door.

It could have been a fun situation, but it turned out to be stressful and I felt like I was in junior high. No one saw anything that week, though, since people were extremely careful about it by taking extremely/annoying precautions.
