I don't have any official method of measure, but judging by the lime scale on our faucets and the fishtank filters, I think our water's probably pretty hard.

Sorry, that was the other idea that I neglected to mention: uniform color grout throughout the bathroom. All grey? Or all white? Grey looks better for the sharp contrast with the wall subway tile (and it's what we're going to do in the kitchen), but does it get lost on a black tile floor in a small shower stall? White looks better for contrast on black floor, but may have issues keeping it clean, plus it'll get lost on the white tile walls.

Again, this question of ease-of-grout-maintenance is only for the shower stall. For the main flooring of the bathroom, we're going with a darker grey 12"x24" close-set tile (so very thin grout lines).
