The bathrooms are "semiprivate"--meaning that you don't have to trek down the hall in a towel and shower behind a see-through map-of-the-world curtain while various individuals wander in and out. One of my friends was privileged to have this experience, and has informed me that contrary to popular belief, Asia is not big enough to cover your body from shoulders to knees...
