bathroom

Where you shower

A bathroom is a room containing a toilet and usually a sink, often with a bathtub or shower.

In American usage, bathroom serves as the polite term for any room with a toilet, even in public spaces: Where's the bathroom?

British English more often uses toilet or loo for such rooms, reserving bathroom for rooms with bathing facilities.
