A6. Better hotel bathrooms? Shampoo dispensers to eliminate the plastic bottles. And incorporate more of the bathroom into the room so it takes less space. #TravelSkills @WScottsdale

replying to @travelskills @travelskills A5 Some of the rolling duffel-type bags made by @HighSierraEU have really changed how we pack for trips. The design, roominess, expansion allows you to pack more than anticipated. Really transformed how we pack for skiing #TravelSkills

replying to @cjmcginnis @cjmcginnis @BestWestern We have been using cubes made by @eaglecreekgear. They are lighter than paper, strong, and provide a way to keep your clean clothes separate from dirties. They make a bunch of different products that kept us organized for a month in Europe. #travelskills

A6 1) Every hotel should have Japanese toilets. 2) heated floors 3) Heated Mirror, We recently had a heated mirror that didn't fog up during our shower. #TravelSkills

As for simplicity, one of my favorite hotels is Hotel Villa Rosa in Positano, Italy. Itās a B&B. So simple. So beautiful. Look at that floor! I want that in my next home. I want to copy everything. I feel peaceful just looking at the photo. Check out the view! Capri #TravelSkills

replying to @BestWestern @BestWestern A6 Iād be sure all bathrooms have REAL and powerful exhaust fans. Most donāt, and it can get steamy and smelly in there! #TravelSkills

replying to @BestWestern @BestWestern TIP If your hotel bathroom or your room isnāt to your liking, call the front desk right away to see if they can move you. Donāt wait until after you unpack. #TravelSkills

replying to @JohnnyJet @JohnnyJet A6: Hah! Make sure they're soundproofed as much as possible, not sexy if in for romantic weekend and...Bath towels really big; nothing worse than skimpy towels. Also...counter space?! A v small room still needs a place for toiletries/cosmetics (i.e. a small shelf) #travelskills
