Shower/tub suggestions - Philadelphia - Loft District

Hello, my BP family. I'm having trouble with deciding if I should install a tub w tiles or simply a shower kit. The space for the tub or Shower is 52 inches so a standard 60 inch tub won't fit. I was wondering what others were doing for their rentals in Philadelphia? The one I'm working on is a 2br 1ba near Temple and the lofts areas off of American St. I'm looking to ultimately receive at least 975 in rent and maybe more if I charge for a pet. Any suggestions?

Sounds like young people are the likely occupants as opposed to senior citizens. Young people can step over the front of a bath tub, where the senior citizens might not want to step over the front.


I’d say get a 48 inch long tub; the young party hosts can ice their beer bottles and cans in the tub ;)
