To be honest if you are going for a quicky which I would not be into then you can not expect that the appartment is going to be too plush. I mean you are not going to see much of it and you are going to be in and out in a flash. And on the shower thing, that is the fault of stupid Irish planners on not the girls. I dont know how many appartments that I have been in where the shower is not longer attached to the wall and you have to hold it yourself. Like in the old days:-)
Gisele's reply was very good and said everything that needed o be said! Well done!
