I don't care what soap they have in the bathrooms, but in the shower, a body wash gel would be preferable to the hand soap. I take my own, I don't care for the stuff in the sleeper showers. (though, I have no idea if it is the same stuff or not) Me personally, I like a Mint soap/body wash. Holiday Inn's used a mint soap and shampoo for a while, and I loved it. (not the stuff in the Holiday Inn Express, that stuff is horid, but actual Holiday Inn's) They modified it a bit to be less minty, but that felt great, and smelled good without being overpowering or flowery, like so many hotel soaps tend to be. Just felt fresh using it. Thank goodness for Dr. Bronners Mint Soap which is good for hair, body, hands, toothpaste, dishes, and clothes in a pinch! (hikers and kayakers love the stuff-One bottle, lots of uses)
