Go to the Travelogue Blurb for these pictures
The apartments that I stay in are actually rather nice. Most things you could want are here. They don't have running hot water, as this is typically not necessary here. The water is already pretty warm. But for showers where you would like it to be potentially warmer, like in the morning, there is a heater that you manually start (switch) that gets you hot water in about 5 minutes. Very economical system.
