Re: Bring bathroom doors back to hotels
#53When I stayed in the Dubai airport hotel not only was it $550 a night for a basic tiny room and there were there no bathroom doors but there was a GIANT painting of the king of dubai both in the bathroom and the bedroom! The one in the bedroom was almost floor to ceiling size. I hung a towel over him. It was super creepy and felt like his eyes were watching you as you walked around the room.
> I hung a towel over him. Be careful, that's probably a felony.

I don't think there are any couples who prefer the bedroom to smell like the toilet.
If you flush the toilet at precisely the moment after you take a shit, the vacuum force of the toilet venting down the waste line will pretty much keep that from happening. That's basically prison rules.

#55Huh.. I've stayed in over 1,000 hotels and Airbnbs over the last 15 years and not once saw a bathroom with no door. Lots of bathroom windows, but always some kind of door.
A lot of them are becoming barn style sliding doors, with large gaps. So if you’re making some noise, everyone will hear you.

Impossible to sex near that painting as the speaker will begin talking at you half way through!

I can assure you not even single people nor couples want doorless bathrooms.
Why? I'd prefer a doorless bathroom. One of my bedrooms at home opens into an open concept bathroom. No doors, vaulted ceilings, open. I really don't get this. I don't want to feel claustrophobic. Edit: Like these - https://34stjohn.com/blogs/inspiration/how-to-pull-off-an-op...

#60A toilet door is a basic no brainer. Unless you want any others to watch or - if travelling alone - you want your bedroom area to smell the same as your freshly shat-in toilet... But then hotel do dumb things like fully enclose a barfridge in a cupboard too.
