Other than the rare times when I grow a beard, I think a hot shave is pretty important to feeling good. My own preference is to shave in the bath, since I find the preponderance of hot water an important component when trying to soften the impact of the razor. That means a mirror is needed and most hotels don't have one situated in or near the bath. I therefore take my own mirror, with an attached sucker which can be stuck to any convenient smooth surface. However, on several occasions I have left the mirror in the hotel bathroom when I have checked out. Rather than abandon it though, I have always gone back for it, thinking I might not be able to source another. I accept that this may be an irrational fear. On one occasion, I returned to a hotel in Quito, Ecuador, two weeks after I'd left the mirror there, and I managed to explain its significance to a maid who only spoke Spanish and it was then retrieved after a search of a store room.
