Notes, Grade, Recommendation, Comments: Shower Review Flying J North Carolina Kenly
[su_table responsive=”yes” alternate=”yes” fixed=”no” class=””]
| Was there anything else noteworthy about your shower experience?: | I wonder why the towel hooks were on the wall next to the sink instead of outside the shower stall.
The fan was mounted very close to the ceiling, the closest I’ve ever seen in a major chain truck stop shower. There was some mold/mildew between the tiles on the floor of the shower stall. See photo. The counter space was gracious. The built-in seat was well-designed, with the exposed corner slanted to avoid problems with being crowded on the toilet. |
