Bathtub

In the hotels we asked for a shower, at home we have a bathtub in one bathroom and a shower in the other. During winter I love to heat up and relax inside my bathtub.

Most homes have a tub/shower combo in the US but, sometimes a house will have a shower in one bathroom and a tub/shower combo in another or a jacuzzi... I will not use a tub in a hotel... You never know if it has been cleaned between guests. We take flipflops with us to wear in the shower at hotels. I saw pictures of a bucket and mug combo at my friend's house in the Philippines. When I took them on a virtual tour of our house, they asked me to stop and go slowly over everything in our bathroom.

I would never sit down in a bathtub in a hotel or motel either. I actually can’t think of the last time I used my own tub. I prefer a shower.

I have a large bathtub but never use it. I like a shower. I would never sit in a bathtub in a hotel/motel or anywhere that isn't my own.

You have a good point never to use a bathtub after someone else has used before.

I clean our bath tub after every use. It sparkles, its like new. I must admit that I see no issue with using a clean sparkling bath tub even if 100 people have used it previously. But your culture is different from our culture. We have a shower as well.

Bathtubs are very handy to have with children around. I would never use a bathtub in a hotel though with so many users. My dad’s bathtub has jets so it’s like a hot tub. He put a brand new one in when they first moved there, and made sure it had jets so my mom could get the effects of a hot tub for her arthritic body. It really helped her.

Likewise, I don't use them, no matter how clean they appear. Here in the country we also use mugs and buckets, and sometimes, showers.

I love my bathtub

I enjoy baths, I had a tub in my master bedroom and converted it into a jacuzzi. I use is at least once a week to relax
