American Ingenuity



Why is the bathroom door in this Carlsbad hotel room notched in such an interesting manner? Is it from some damage that hasn't yet been fixed? Is it a fancy embellishment to the otherwise boring straight line of the door edge?

No!

Apparently the door is just a smidgen too close to the toilet when it opens in to the bathroom... so the smart folks in the hotel facilities office cut a little section out to allow it to swing fully open.



Now that's ingenuity!
