I stayed in a hotel in Newcastle NSW that was meant for long-ish-term stays. It had a normal master room with, for an additional fee, the option to unlock the interconnecting doors to a living room and kitchen. The shower. had a full length frosted glass panel. I stayed there with my entire family. For 3 weeks.

This harrowing experience came only a week after a 3 week long road trip in Europe through multiple hotels, where apparently frosted glass bathroom doors are also common.

In my opinion though, nothing will beat the Sydney Airport Rydges shower door....which is just a curtain.

My worst version of this was a hotel in Kingscliff Australia that had an actual room for the bathroom, but with only saloon doors between the bedroom area. The doors covered about 15% of the actual door opening. Brand new boyfriend, essentially a second date. Horrifying

Yes and that’s on me, he was not worth the saloon door embarrassment or the next 7 years
