    You need to take your own bed sheets, pillow cases, towels and tea towels. There will be pillows, blankets and doonas provided.
    A lot of these places can provide linen packs at extra cost if you ask.

    • Does that mean you have to make the bed too?

        Yep and worst of all, you have to strip the bed and take the soiled sheets home with you on the bus.

        • No, the worst is the places that don't provide linen typically don't provide consumables like toilet paper … so you're literally shit-out-of-luck if you turn up without toilet paper and need to take a dump.

            @salmon123: Or those that provide 1 roll for a family of 4.

            I recall my review "$200 a night and they provided 1 scratchy roll of toilet paper for the weekend. Avoid!"

    Somebody still uses Stayz???

    • Mate, a customer asked me a few weeks ago at work if we accepted Bartercard. I honestly haven't seen one of them in 20 years.

      • I had a customer ask for our fax number the other day… I guess some technologies last longer than we think!

        • I would be surprised, but only in the last couple of years has our security provider swapped from fax to scanning and emailing timesheets to them.

  • No Linen or towels provided.

    Doesn't this defeat the purpose of getting accommodation? Or does "accommodation" now just mean a roof over your head?

    I know this is OzBargain but at least get something you can actually sleep in without too much hassle.

      It used to be "a thing". Not as common now (not where I've been staying)

  • If no blankets then crank the heater up to turn it into tropic nights sleeping under just a sheet. Sorted.
