Thank you, Residence Inn Seattle Sea-Tac, for having: (1) a walk-in shower in which the faucet handle is just inside the glass door—on the opposite side from the showerhead—so that you can turn the water on without having to go all the way into the shower to do it, getting doused with cold water before you can leap out of the way, (2) shampoo/conditioner/bath gel bottles that have printing large enough to be deciphered without reading glasses, (3) not one but two capacious shelves in the shower stall to hold whatever you might want to put on them, plus a wire mesh shelf for the soap (4) nice bright lighting, (5) a separate switch for the not-too-loud fan, and (6) plenty of room on the vanity so you can not only put your washbag and toiletries on there, but also not have them get splashed with water from the sink.

It’s the little things!
