1. Also, the shower would get scalding hot for a few seconds at a time, then go back to normal.

3. (1) don't flush while still sitting down, and (2) when someone else in the building flushes the shower partially looses cold water press and you can get momentarily scalded if you have the water set for very hot.

"Very acceptable and a great bargain. " Read full review on TripAdvisor 5/5/2011 Vote
