Little things

[pen_grunt]

This resort is a lot of very nice things, executed not so wonderfully.

For instance, there is an in-room keurig coffee maker...and they only gave me decaf coffee.

Oddly, none of the devices in my room were plugged in--no lamps, no clocks, no phones. The clock has no cord to plug it in. It just sits there, inert, on the bedside table.

There is a rain-shower.

Let me tell you. There is a reason why we don't all march out and stand in the rain to bathe ourselves. If I wanted water trickling feebly over my body I'd bathe in the tears of those crying over the lack of water pressure.

They are the first-worldiest of first world problems. It's true.

Maybe it's an Earth-saving solar powered alarm clock.
Which means you'll have to leave a light on all night to charge it.

Can you call them up and let the front desk know that they accidentally only gave you decaf?

I got to use a rain-shower-like shower about ten years ago at a hotel in Salzburg and I loved it! Granted, it was also one of the weirdest showers I've been in since there was no tub enclosed space; just some elevated (comfortable) stone/bricks. It was wonderful!

Fun fact: I got to use a keurig for the first time last year! It didn't come with any instructions, so I thought that you had to peel the lid of the pod before putting it into the machine. Oops!
