[quote name="Quétinbec"][quote name="Ray of Light"] (according to hospitality trade rags, only 3% of hotel patrons use tubs in tubwise fashion; as a consequence they are taking them away).[/quote] Maybe at the bottom end, but as someone struggling to spend $3500/week on rent in a market where the top levels out at $2500 (eg. a great man), I've seen a shitload of penthouses and presidential suites that run out of more expensive ways of distinguishing themselves and wind up sticking baths in the maid's quarters. A bath is a really cheap way of bumping up the presteige level of a hotel room. The actual use of the bath (like the actual use of the hotel television) is insignicifant. I never use a hotel room's jug but, like the Pyramids in Egypt, it has an <i> existence</i> value, and I feel better by it being there. It's also cheap (like a bath). The baths will stay in hotel rooms.[/quote]
