Pink Bathroom in Rented Apartment. What to Do?

You will need to add sound deadening insulation to this wall before installing the shower or the noise will be very evident in the other bedroom. As for the moisture problem, there shouldn't be any if you only use screws on the shower flange because these will be covered up by your trim.
We ALWAYS use a cement board as a backing to any shower install. When water makes its way back to the sub (and someday it will), you have protection.
