Shower #5
Pros: Shower Review Pilot Alabama Lincoln
- Shower was clean upon arrival,
to the point of being almost pristine
- Plenty of counter space at sink
- Fan worked well
- There was
good ventilation in the room, as evidenced when Vicki turned off the
fan while Mike was in the shower to see if the mirror would fog up; it
did not.
- Mirror was well positioned on
wall behind sink for
both short and tall drivers
- Water pressure from sink was
good
- Electrical outlets worked well
- Water pressure in shower was
good
- Showerhead could be positioned
where needed
- Showerhead was positioned in
stall to minimize
splattering on floor outside stall
- Water could be turned on and
temperature adjusted in shower without having to get wet
- Door restrictor worked well
- Towels were thick and thirsty,
like beach towels
- Washcloths were sufficiently
thick
- Toilet flushed well
- Two
folded towels were available on the cart in the hall leading to the
showers; because of our need for two more towels, we did not even have
to see an attendant for more.
- There was a light directly over
the mirror, which can help male shower customers keep from getting
nicked while shaving.
- Besides the standard towel and
wash cloth, there were both a small package of soap and three paper
bath mats waiting for us
- There was a mint waiting for
us, which is a nice touch
Cons: Shower Review Pilot Alabama Lincoln
- Showerhead could have been
better; this kind usually
delivers the "sand blaster" type of spray; the spray from this one
wasn't that bad.
- Shower water temperature got
slightly warmer whenever someone flushed a toilet
- Shower water pressure lowered
slightly whenever someone flushed a toilet
- Built-in seat was too
small for an
oversized shower bag to rest on
- There was one tiny little bit
of graffiti on the hinge side of the door frame.
Note: This was the cleanest, brightest, nicest shower
facility we've
been in to date. Mike hopes that this facility stays this nice for a
long time.
