 Now works with Moonpath to Elsweyr and Ravenrock Expanded, no patched file necessary! check change log for complete list of changes and fixes. Fully adapted to Skyrim Special Edition!

I do not plan to update a patched version for Old Hrolden compatibility, sorry.

This is a new release of my old mod Friendlier Taverns with bathing rooms added to each Tavern.

Each Tavern in Skyrim has been individually remodeled to make the sitting arrangements more welcoming and diverse in furnishings. No more cookie cutter look no matter what Tavern you walk into. A number of custom models have been added to serve as safe containers and or decorations. Most taverns now have bread ovens.

In this version now every Tavern in Skyrim also has a walk in bathing room, fully navmeshed so followers can go in with you. The bathing rooms are attached at floor level at the country side Inns as round silo towers, and so are also circular on the inside. These feature circular wooden tubs and followers will use them though not easily come out of them, but always follow behind you when you leave the bathing room.

The bathing rooms in major cities are more individualized and made in the style of that city with the one in Markarth probably being the most elaborate with a pool in the Dwemer style.

Every bathing room is a bit different just as the Taverns are individualized  and will have between 1 to 3 tubs and slightly different features like fire places, spouts etc.

I think the doors will be pretty obvious, but they are placed mostly in the right far corner in all country Inns, behind the bar and next to the large room.

Some hints for the Cities:

Markarth Silverblood Inn door is to the right of the fire place; Solitude The Winking Skeever in the open basement no loading door; Riften basement at the foot of the stairs; Whiterun main hall to the left of the bar; Windhelm Candlehearth hall, at the foot of the back stairs; Retching Netch Ravenrock on Solstheim hallway opposite the bar. Cities that have the same house type for an Inn as small villages also have the Silo type round tower attached to them, such as Falkreath, Morthal and Winterhold; Dawnstar has a square hut design attached to the Frozen Hearth.
