Life on the road for this frequent traveler would be so much easier if these five simple things were in every hotel room.
如果每個旅館房間裏都有以下五樣物品的話,那麼每個經常出差人士的生活就要輕鬆很多。
1. Toothpaste
牙膏
In stores, toothpaste is readily available in two sizes - tiny (0.85 oz) and big (4+ oz). Until the companies that manufacture toothpaste figure out there's a market for a 3-ounce size that fits in a quart-sized baggie, it sure would be nice if hotels would provide a small tube of toothpaste as a standard amenity in hotel bathrooms, along with the shampoo. It's something everybody needs. While they're at it, how about some shaving cream?
商店裏麵的牙膏有兩種大小:0.85 oz 小的和4+ oz大的。直到牙膏生產廠家明白,市場上對適合放在小旅行箱中的3盎ang司si大da小xiao的de牙ya膏gao有you需xu求qiu前qian,如ru果guo旅lv館guan將jiang提ti供gong小xiao盒he牙ya膏gao和he沐mu浴yu露lu作zuo為wei一yi種zhong標biao準zhun禮li儀yi的de話hua那na就jiu再zai好hao不bu過guo了le。這zhe些xie是shi每mei個ge人ren都dou需xu要yao的de。既ji然ran如ru此ci的de話hua,再zai提ti供gong一yi些xie剃ti須xu膏gao怎zen麼me樣yang?
2. Electrical Outlet by the Nightstand
床頭安置的插座
Cell phones are a travel necessity nowadays, multitasking as alarm clocks, not to mention free long distance calls. Life on the road would be so much easier with an electrical outlet near the bed, right above the nightstand. In the meantime, I may start packing an extension cord.
如ru今jin,手shou機ji是shi出chu遊you的de必bi備bei品pin,可ke以yi當dang鬧nao鍾zhong用yong,當dang然ran更geng少shao不bu了le免mian費fei的de長chang途tu電dian話hua了le。如ru果guo在zai床chuang頭tou安an置zhi插cha座zuo的de話hua,旅lv行xing者zhe的de生sheng活huo將jiang會hui更geng輕qing鬆song。那na樣yang,我wo或huo許xu會hui開kai始shi打da包bao一yi個ge延yan長chang電dian線xian了le。
3. Shower Gel
沐浴露
A few years ago this was nearly a standard. But now? Out of the three hotels I stayed in last week, only one had shower gel along with the shampoo and conditioner. Bring back the shower gel!
幾年前這是旅館中的必備品。然而現在怎麼樣呢?上個星期我住過的三家賓館,隻有一家提供洗發水和空調。將沐浴露還回來!
4. Bathroom Privacy
浴室隱私
Oddly, here's another hotel room feature that seems to be going the way of the vacuum tube television. Recently I've seen sliding bathroom doors with big gaps below and on either side, windows in showers, and louvered walls that let in light, and along with it sounds. Whatever happened to a big, solid, soundproof door? In the interest of ventilation and lighting, bathrooms are losing all sense of privacy. On a related note, when did hotels do away with bathroom vents?
很(hen)奇(qi)怪(guai),這(zhe)好(hao)像(xiang)是(shi)隨(sui)著(zhe)真(zhen)空(kong)電(dian)視(shi)的(de)發(fa)展(zhan)而(er)消(xiao)失(shi)的(de)另(ling)外(wai)一(yi)個(ge)旅(lv)館(guan)特(te)征(zheng)。最(zui)近(jin)我(wo)看(kan)到(dao)樓(lou)下(xia)或(huo)相(xiang)鄰(lin)的(de)浴(yu)室(shi)之(zhi)間(jian)滑(hua)動(dong)門(men)有(you)很(hen)大(da)的(de)間(jian)隙(xi),或(huo)者(zhe)在(zai)兩(liang)個(ge)浴(yu)室(shi)之(zhi)間(jian)開(kai)著(zhe)有(you)燈(deng)的(de)百(bai)葉(ye)窗(chuang),還(hai)有(you)傳(chuan)過(guo)來(lai)的(de)聲(sheng)音(yin)。那(na)些(xie)大(da)而(er)結(jie)實(shi)的(de)隔(ge)音(yin)門(men)到(dao)哪(na)裏(li)去(qu)了(le)?隨(sui)著(zhe)對(dui)通(tong)風(feng)和(he)燈(deng)光(guang)的(de)追(zhui)求(qiu),浴(yu)室(shi)已(yi)經(jing)全(quan)無(wu)隱(yin)私(si)可(ke)言(yan)。另(ling)外(wai)一(yi)個(ge)相(xiang)關(guan)的(de)疑(yi)問(wen)就(jiu)是(shi),浴(yu)室(shi)的(de)通(tong)風(feng)口(kou)是(shi)什(shen)麼(me)時(shi)候(hou)不(bu)見(jian)的(de)?
5. Slippers
拖鞋
I always appreciate having a robe in the room. Hotels get major bonus points from me if they include slippers as well. Why? Just imagine how many other bare feet have walked across that carpet. This goes double for all those Caribbean resorts with cold, hard stone floors.
房fang間jian裏li麵mian如ru果guo有you浴yu袍pao的de話hua我wo會hui很hen感gan激ji的de。如ru果guo旅lv館guan能neng夠gou準zhun備bei拖tuo鞋xie的de話hua,他ta們men能neng從cong我wo身shen上shang獲huo得de更geng多duo的de利li益yi。為wei什shen麼me?隻zhi要yao想xiang想xiang另ling外wai一yi個ge人ren曾zeng經jing赤chi腳jiao走zou過guo這zhe個ge地di毯tan。在zai加jia熱re比bi海hai度du假jia村cun的de旅lv館guan中zhong,那na些xie冷leng而er硬ying的de地di板ban讓rang這zhe種zhong惡e劣lie的de情qing況kuang更geng加jia明ming顯xian。
