Travel arrangements can get so messy, and people often times decide to share accommodations in order to save money.

When you get a lot of personalities and a lot of preferences in one room, though, things can go sideways fast.

Just try and follow this story.

WIBTAH if I got my own hotel room?

I (36f) am going on a small weekend trip with my good friends A (45f), R (45m), their daughter B(21f).

We live on an island so have to catch a ferry to get to our event, so we have to stay the night.

So things commenced normally enough at first:

I booked a suite last month, 1 king-size bed I planned on sharing with B, 1 queen size bed for A and R, the room also has a pullout couch.

R’s son C(21m) and his gf D(18f) have decided to end their week long trip with us and stay the night, I assumed they’d stay on the pullout.

The room I booked was a 5 min walk from our venue, but also almost $500/night.

We were all going to split the room (just 4 of us) but they’ve found a cheaper place a and only a 10 min walk from the venue, but half the cost $260/night, so I cancelled my room for theirs, 2 queen sized beds, and a pullout.

But now the dance begins:

But now the room is on R’s credit card and he told me the sleeping arrangements, B gets her own bed bc she doesn’t like sharing a bed, C and D get the other bed, A and R will sleep on the floor with the couch cushions and pillows, and said I can sleep on the pullout.

And he said only us 4 who are going to the event are going to pay (not C and D), so it’s going to be 60/person.

Nobody likes those terrible pull-outs.

I’ve told them I stayed at that hotel with family before and slept on that pullout and it’s a mattress that’s 3 inches thick and you feel all the bars and it’s just so uncomfortable.

I said uhhh I’m just going to get my own room then.

R said he knew I’d be a brat about it.

Is any of this fair?

Why are they letting two ppl, who aren’t even paying, to sleep on the bed and not the pullout?

And B not on the floor?

Like the younger ones can bounce back far easier from a crappy mattress and the floor.

It’s enough to make you just wanna shut everybody else out.

If I got my own room it will be $235 at the same hotel.

I’m going to pay 175 more just so I can get to sleep on a bed.

Let’s see what the comments make of this:

Everybody was on her side:

The best laid plans, yanno?

Seriously, those pull-outs are the absolute worst.

Have yourself a relaxing trip, it’s worth the extra money.

For real.
