Not too long ago another traveller in the US shared an interesting photo of a room online. In a post on Reddit, he revealed he had been staying at Hotel Goodwin in Beloit, Wisconsin, saying "the shower in my hotel is a glass cube in the centre of the room.
" The hotel's website confirmed that some of the rooms include a "three-sided glass shower enclosure" and "rainforest-like shower head". The design feature sparked plenty of comments. "The voyeur suite," one person quipped.
"I wonder how often someone slams into it when heading to the washroom groggy in the middle of the night," another person queried. "Not a room for friends to casually share," was another comment. Watch every moment, every medal of the Olympic Games Paris 2024 live and free on Channel 9 and 9Now .
