I smile to myself, get a towel and close the door. I move my eyes to the table next to the cabinet and turn the radio on. The station that is set is one I enjoy. There are guitars, pianos, and drums in the background. In the foreground, there is a group of men, who all sing together beautifully. The lead singer has a slight twang in his voice, and he is singing my favorite song. I set my towel down on the table and go around a small corner to the right. The hot tub is placed in its own little secluded area of this room. As I walk forward a few steps, I immediately climb the steps to get into the hot tub.
Before I do so, I step back and look at it. It is a lovely blue color and is wrapped in an oak paneling of wood. Pushed against a wall, you have to maneuver yourself just so to get the cover off. When the cover is not in use, the cover is placed between the hot tub and one of the walls touching its side. I notice the cover is in the area I just explained and I conclude that someone has forgotten to put the cover back on after using the hot tub. I don't mind though, because it is a little tricky to get off. It's cover is just a plain color of brown, but looks nice with the wood at the base of the hot tub. This hot tub is a 7"x7" square and the label says about 5 people can fit. I know you can fit more, though. There are two seats on the left and right side of the hot tub. The two in the corners have jets that massage your lower back. On the front side, there is a panel on which you set the temperature, jets speed, and amount of bubbles. Below is a step that helps you ease into the water. The hot tub itself is about three feet deep and comes up to my stomach. On the adjacent side is a long "reclining chair. This has jets from head to toe and you can lay down. Either place you sit, it is a rather nice hot tub. .
I look at the panel on the front side of the hot tub, I see the button to turn on the lights that go around the edge of the hot tub and decide to turn off the lights in the room.
