She wrote, "I'm a woman. I don't wash my hair every day. Please give me a way to turn on the shower without having to get in and be blasted by cold water that gets my head wet."
She also said, "I miss shower curtains, and now we have glass walls that don't move."
She closed her post with, "Signed, A Traveler with Loyalty Status."
In an edit, she later added, "Wow, the number of times I have been called bleeping feminist (or worse) on this post is kinda s-----. I have no problem being a feminist, thank you."

Wrote another person, "I want a shower that is fully enclosed so that I'm not cold and there isn't water all over the floor after the shower! I also want counter space to set [up] my toiletries! Is that so hard?"
Said another commenter, "Expensive hotel doesn't mean great shower design."
Another person wrote, "I want a door on my shower."
She added, "In the long run, I am certain the money they saved [by] not putting a door on the shower is wasted in energy costs as I have to turn up the hot water during the shower."
Said another person, "Do not make me climb into the shower to turn the water on. Have the faucet on the same side as entry so we can reach in."
