The room smells like a locker room.
The shower has mold.
I feel like I need a shower after my shower. Please someone rescue me.

Hotel Capital, San Salvador, El Salvador
Imagine the scene: Your alarm goes off. You spring out of bed, excited to begin a landfill gas workshop, complete with a tour to El Salvador’s largest landfill! You jump into the shower, turn on the water and everything is bien. When suddenly, mid-shampoo…there is no water! ¡Ay dios mio!
Do you want to avoid having to run to your co-worker’s hotel room wearing only a soapy towel at 8am? And then ruin her day by stealing all of her water (Sorry Victoria!!)?
Fortunately for all, the showers were fully functional on our return from the landfill.
The hotel’s shower system is just not equipped to handle simultaneous showering by multiple guests on the same conference schedule. If you can deal with showering at night, the hotel is fine. And, it is located directly across the street from Mister Donut. They may not have shower design down, but what the Salvadorans do with donuts will blow your mind.

Park Plaza Wallstreet, Berlin, Germany
As excerpted from an email from European showering expert Denison.
Typical of modern bathrooms: Looks really awesome, modern, and hip, but suffered from significant functional deficiencies. The bathroom had 2 glass walls, one of which was actually a sliding door with a basketball-sized hole "handle," providing a clear line of sight from anywhere in the room to the toilet, even with the "door" closed.
The shower was nice looking: fancy dark stone on the floor, nice looking large white tile walls going up 14 feet
• No mold. At least yet-the hotel was new
• Good water pressure
• Removable shower head
• Big sized tub you could probably fit 3 people laying down comfortably, etc.
• Tub wall was so high it was like jumping the hurdles trying to get in there
• No curtain or shower doors so as you showered you managed to flood the entire bathroom
• Hazardous exit from shower-- the stone floor was totally wet and you had to jump out of the tub onto the wet floor
