At First Glance: Chrystal-clear siding gave view to a sparkling-clean white shower. The entrance is guarded by two curved doors on a track and pulled apart to allow the showerer entry. It’s odd, but neat, and reminds us in a way of our own home’s sliding glass door leading to the backyard.

Shower Power: Wonderful! Reminded us of home, which of course was my favorite shower. A steady stream of serenity.

Hot or Not?: Plenty hot, although we take military showers (turn on when under, turn off when not) to best use the limited hot water in our tiny water heater.

What Made it Nice: The cleanliness factor. Though it’s not decorated much, the common theme of white and other bright, light colors highlights the pure, hygienic, sanitary spotlessness of it all. Also, our host and hostess provided us with six sets of three bath linens each. These big, thick, fluffy towels are a welcome change from the tiny thin towels we received in our Venetian villa. Also, five large wooden hooks on the back wall of the bathroom, as well as a free-standing three-rod towel hanger.

What Made it Not-So-Nice: Having to take a military shower is not pleasant, and the towels don’t dry very quickly.
