smaller roomshower setup

I was a bit disappointed. The room looked smaller than what the photos suggested! The shower setup was also odd. It was a handheld shower in a bathtub mounted low near the faucet! A simple wall mount could vastly improve it. That seemed like an oversight. I missed small amenities other hotels usually have such as tissues or an iron.
