TP should always be over the top of the roll. Easier to grasp as you don't have to scrap your knuckles against the wall. If it has a decorative pattern, the pattern is usually only on one side, and you can only see it if it's rolled over the top--otherwise you don't get your money's worth of visual enjoyment looking at the pretty pink flowers or whatever's is printed on the sheets.
I always turn the roll around if it isn't in "over the top" mode.

Well I thought that I would update and advise that all hotels in New Zealand in 2012 provide face-cloths/wash cloths/flannels. I call them flannels or face-cloths not wash cloths and yes we still use them!!!!!!

sumcr - my DH shaves after his shower. Day old stubble is then suitable for application of shaving foam and razor.
He gets no complaints from me as to the closeness of his shave .
Here in the Netherlands they have washandschoenen - washinggloves. Blinking useless pieces of kit but very popular still.

Still puzzled about the shaving issue.
What else but shaving gel or foam would be needed after a shower to soften the stubble?
And we do talk about beards, don't we? With this thread, nothing would surprise me.
People who use wash cloths cannot be trusted.
Next thing you ubercleanly folks tell that you use a Kärcher each morning to anniliate those germs and the inches-thick layer of dirt....

Yes, agree with hetismij, in the Netherlands and in Germany you can get a washcloth sewed into a little pocket (when I was growing up we called this a 'washandje' (NL)). I guess hotels don't provide these because they are such an intimate part of washing that to use someone else's would be a bit icky ...

*sigh*
I hate reading a huge long thread only to find out it is years old. Ok, I don't really hate, I just feel dumb!
But for the record, I use a washcloth/facecloth/flannel on my face, but rarely on my body. For that I use a nylon scrubbie with body gel, never ever soap!
I like the TP to roll from the top, not the bottom and will change it if someone put it on wrong. And I too am boggled how sometimes the sheets don't match up.

We just spent a week in Holland, and both hotels provided washcloths with the towels.
I'm saying washcloths, as unlike the humble british flannel, they were sewn into pockets/mitts that you could put your hand into.

Our washcloths are just terry fabric squares - no pockets or mitts.
