What I don't understand is why they insist on labeling the bottles with such miniscule font or lack of contrast colors. Many of us wear glasses (and obviously we don't shower with glasses on) so I am always struggling to find which is shampoo and which one is body wash.
YES!!! Pet peeve of mine. I have to read the labels before I take off my glasses.

This is pretty much what all the US airlines did with meals in Coach. They used to be good a few decades ago. Quality and quantity deteriorated and then the airlines said that they'd (mostly) stop serving meals in Coach because the passengers didn't value them that much.

I like the idea of a basket full of amenity items- I always take the eye shades with me and most of the other stuff gets thrown away.
