rest rooms
Building's public toilets
Rest rooms are public toilets, typically in commercial buildings, restaurants, or other shared spaces.
The term is primarily American and slightly formal—signs may read "restrooms" while people ask for the bathroom or simply where's the toilet?
The euphemism suggests a place for rest, though actual resting rarely occurs there.
