KLM has been known to transfer passengers to Mercure when their hot water runs out...
GottaluvNW: Are you positive 25--the Schengen Lounge near Terminal D is closed for renovations? 25 was just renovated last year with new shower rooms, etc. Someone else checked on the KLM forum (and I've asked for confirmation), but thought there is you might be thinking of 41 because both 25 and 52 were renovated last year. Like others here, I'm trying to confirm whether to use 52 before transiting to Schengen area on Wed. I prefer 25 if it's open because I'm already through security and passport control for my onward flight that way.
If I get confirmation from our friends at the KLM thread first, I'll follow up here so everyone will know.
EDIT: Just received confirmation that 25 (Schengen--near Pier D) is open and shower rooms still available (although there are only 4 showers in 25 vs. 10 in 52--near Pier F/G) so our KLM friends recommend 52 for showering. Personally, I have never had to wait more than 20 minutes for a shower in Lounge 25
