Motel Bathroom Fountain

While staying in a hotel, I created a fountain in the bathroom. A hose was clamped onto the pipe where the shower head had been. The trap, an S-shaped pipe under the sink, was removed and the hose now attached to the shower was snaked up through the bottom of the sink. When the shower was turned on, the sink filled up in reverse and overflowed. The water ran down a trough I added to the edge of the sink and emptied into the toilet, which has the ability to maintain a consistent water level.
