# 1058 Dress Up & Bless Up
Question
In many hotels everywhere the balconies face the beach or a swimming pool. Early in the morning, when no one is out yet, is there a problem davening or saying brochos facing an area where usually people are improperly dressed?
Answer
Horav Shlomo Miller’s Shlit’a opinion is that a beach or a swimming pool area that is empty does not qualify as a bathhouse. Therefore, when no improperly clothed individuals are present, one is allowed to recite brochos, daven or learn Torah in them or facing them.
