    I was able to get a better sleep last night, but this bed situation is annoying me. I have a “double” bed, but it’s one of those fake double beds where it’s just 2 singles pushed together. Both bases are on wheels as well, and the wheels don’t have locks on them, so I have to keep pushing them back together as they get separated

        The bed is a lie!!!

        I don’t hate them as much when they’re sturdy bases put on the floor without wheels, but this wheely system is hell. The beds are literally only held together by a sheet

      can you pin them together? Put one up against a wall and use a desk/bed side table to ensure they dont roll apart?

        Unfortunately there’s about a 1-1.5m gap between the bed and the wall, and the bedside tables are too flimsy and light to hold the bed in place if I move or roll in bed (tried that last night, it fell over)

          damn. Maybe a hardwood bedside table from a hard rubbish rile or gumtree then?

            Probably my only option, but I’m only here for 4 or 4 more nights, so I don’t really want to spend money on making the beds less uncomfortable

      Could double bed sheets keep them together, or those coaster things for furniture you can get from bunnings?

        The double sheets are what they’ve used to hold them together. It worked for the first night when the housekeepers did it, but I don’t think I’m physically capable of making the sheets as tight as they did)

      Can you complain to the hotel or your support people? Separate them and just sleep on one?
