Both excellent ones. It’s like playing Russian roulette with showers that suffer from a knob overdose (maybe not the best word to use in this context).

My two…
1) The shiny chrome ‘designer’ shower controls that are way too cool to have any cluttering text or symbols. So what does this one do? Spray water from the rainforest above or squirt it from the hand-held spray at the side, or fill the bath? And is it the spray director? Might it be the temp control? And if it is the temp control, which way is hot? In the end it doesn’t matter because you are always going to get sprayed by cold water from an unexpected direction!

2) Small print toiletries. You know the ones you take into the shower, only to have to get out again so you can put on your glasses to check whether you have the conditioner, shampoo, body wash, hand wash or bubble bath! I’ve only ever encountered one hotel – the Melia, Berlin – that had toiletries with large black print.
