Notes, Grade, Recommendation, Comments:
"Shower Review Pilot Maryland Perryville"
| Was there anything else
noteworthy about your shower experience?: |
This
shower room has seen some hard usage. Of particular note was the
toilet's refusal to completely flush. I had to get a plunger from the
shower attendant's cart to "help" it. When I returned the plunger, the
attendant had returned and I remarked about the problems I had
encountered. He said that they had been having problems with that
toilet for awhile. |
| Based on your personal
expectations, what grade would you give to this
shower facility and your shower experience today (A+ is best; F- is
worst)?: |
C- |
| Based on your experience
today, would you recommend this shower
facility to other professional drivers?: |
No way |
| Additional comments: |
On a positive note, my wife
liked the knob on the
shower, which could control the water temperature and pressure
independently. She also liked the shower head, which delivered a spray
like one you'd find in a home.
On a negative note, the water that condensed on the vent almost
directly over the built-in seat dripped on my wife who was with me and
dripped twice more on the floor while we were there.
