shared bathroom

Common toilet area

A shared bathroom is one used by multiple people who aren't part of the same household or immediate group.

Hotels and hostels advertise rooms with shared bathrooms, meaning guests use a common facility in the hallway rather than a private one in the room.

Roommate listings specify shared versus private bathrooms.

The room was cheap because it had a shared bathroom down the hall.
