Default On curtains and windows in hotels ...

I spend quite a bit of time in hotels and motels. I like natural light -- to the extent that what light makes it through dark tempered windows can be called natural -- and I think the lights of the big city can be pretty, so I tend to keep the curtains open whenever I can. I close the windows when in direct afternoon sunlight, and I close the curtains at bedtime, if the morning sun will be shining in on me. Other than that, even when I'm not fully dressed, I tend to keep the curtains open, unless I'm less than three floors from the ground or the parking garage, or less than three floors from a nearby building. For this purpose, anything closer than two or three blocks away is nearby. Occasionally I'll forget the curtains are open and a building is nearby, but I usually remember before the good bits come out.

New York was the best...never mind full view of the street...full view of the office building across the street, and the hotel had floor to ceiling windows. It was fairly late at night, but I'm sure some nightowl and a janitor or two got an eyefull.
