Lucky for him, the Prefect's bathroom is ridiculously ornate:
softly lit [...] candle-filled chandelier [...] white marble [...] a hundred golden taps [...] diving board [...] linen curtains [...] pink and blue bubbles the size of footballs [...] heavily perfumed purple clouds hovering over the surface of the water [...] so deep that his feet barely touched the bottom (399-400)
When you quote it like that, it aches to be renamed the "MarySue Bathroom". Although, a bath that size reminds me of the Roman baths and scads of men bathing together.
