Writing exercise

When I arrived in China, specifically in Shanghai, I had a cultural shock. I had never been in a city like this, too big with too tall buildings and too many people. Shanghai is a city that has almost the same population as Spain.
The hotel where we stayed was a five stars, it was amazing, its lobby had high celling with extravagant decoration, that made it more interesting. The room was big like my house in Madrid, and two things than surprised me more than others there, was the bathroom, it had a toilet that could kept warm and get water and wash your private parts from inside the toilet. By the way, I never used that.
Other thing that I really liked a lot was the mirror into bathroom, when you were there you could see in it, like always but also you could watch television.
These things were the first ones that really surprised me on that moment.
