Cons: Shower Review Pilot Indiana Hebron
- Showerhead in shower stall was
positioned too high to be adjusted by shorter drivers
- Showerhead was very unlike one
used in a home; spray from it was too hard (what we would call a "sand
blaster" type).
- Water pressure in shower was
not consistent throughout Mike's shower
- Showerhead was not positioned
so as to let the water temperature be set without getting wet
- Showerhead was not positioned
in the stall so as to minimize splattering on floor outside stall
- The built-in seat was not quite
big enough for an oversized shower bag
- Unless the fan was used, the
mirror would fog when someone showered
- Small tiles on the shower
stall floor not laid flat made standing on them for any length
of time uncomfortable
- The height of the step going
into the shower stall was unusually high, which could lead to drivers
stumbling or tripping over it, especially those who wear glasses and
cannot see it clearly
- The room showed significant
signs of usage
Note: The water at this facility is quite soft, which
could lead to
customers' difficulty determining when they have rinsed off all soap.
