I wonder how long it took them to find a bath that unpleasant.
I see they have what looks like “live love laugh” on the walls which is such a bad taste cliche but then they have “wash” under the bathroom basin. I’m wondering if they have similar instructions elsewhere, like the toilet.

It’s baffling isn’t it?! It looks like a decent sized space but it would be so depressing to sit in!
What I am absolutely offended by is the state of that garden. The interior of the house has so much personality and yet the garden is so depressing and grey?
It’s functional aimed at zero maintenance. What I find weird is that the back “garden” has signs of life and it looks like they entertain there quite a bit, but the front is just a great void - completely wasted space. There’s quite a lot of gravelled gardens around here but people usually do something with it - large upright stones, dwarf conifers, railway sleepers, water features, etc I’ve seen one go for a Zen/Buddhist look. All low maintenance but at least something to break up the pebbly vista.
At least there’s water-permeable gravel over just slabs of concrete I suppose…
It’s almost always over a permeable membrane to keep the weeds out.
I’ve seen worse. My coworker and I had been booked into an AirBnB once, as hotels were all full. We’ve been told “One bed and one couch” - not good, but works in a pinch. Wrong. It was one double bed in the flat of an absolute, over the top gay males couple. Not only was the double bed a thing we would not accept, but the worst was that the room was all over decorated with pictures of naked men. NOPE. Not our style.
So we went bed-hunting, and were extremely lucky to find two hotel rooms that had been cancelled by someone else that day. When we sent in the invoices to the accouting department, they were not happy - Why would we book hotel rooms if there was a booked and paid AirBnB? I sent them two photos I had taken of the AirBnB room, and they paid the hotel bill without any more questions.
The OTT decor makes it sound like the whole purpose of AirBnB’ing is to see if any guys who stay there might be down to fuck.
Cool if that’s your personal space but not so cool when it’s an AirBnB anyone could be staying in.
I don’t think I’d feel comfortable with that, and I say that as someone who is pretty gay.
The chairs and table are pushed up to the wall. Yeah, you can pull it to the center of the room when using it, but it feels impractical and emphasizes that it’s boxed in. The greatest crime, however, is words. Laugh, Love, WASH?! I was gonna grant a pass until I saw the last one. Stop it.
Oh dear, that’s 27 minutes from me. Must. Resist. Going.
You can’t hold out on us like this. We need you to go & return with a full report.
I’m scared to, what if it draws me in and I start thinking “this is actually OK” when it really isn’t.
Hey now, that pastely plush thing could be very comforting & then you can keep us abreast of your own decor journey.
Because if it seduces you you’ll have no choice but to reel all of us in as well.
It’s like someone with no taste had to fit out the house, and had a £3000 gift card for The Range.
I agree how can you possibly love and laugh without live?
Love, laugh, WASH.
When every fool knows, it’s “laugh, love, wash”. It’s the only hygienic order.
Ah, what did I came here to do again?

Oh yeah…
This looks like a player house in final fantasy 14
Oh my god this is what happens if grandma smokes too much crack
Is this person related to Liberace by chance?
I do like the bathtubs texture actually.
I’m intrigued by that towel around the bath
Damn, had mistaken that for some bizarre moulded effect, inspired by seashells.
But it is just a peach beach towel with a ridged weave.
So disappointed.
The lighting makes this look like an underground bunker. The deco make it all the better
immediately calls to mind
This is far too small and standard British working class to be a McMansion. I do love that sub though. There’s one on lemmy too: !mcmansionhell@sh.itjust.works
