Selecting bathroom privacy info
When it comes to bathrooms, guests expect the privacy of an interior lock or latch. But it is helpful if your Room listing is clear about if the bathroom is shared, dedicated or private and attached. Guests can filter for private bathrooms and en suites when searching for a Room.
How bathroom privacy is defined
Private and attached: The bathroom is for exclusive use by the guest. It is accessed directly via the bedroom (e.g. an ensuite bathroom).
Dedicated: The bathroom is for exclusive use by the guest, but it is accessed via a shared space, like a hallway or living room.
Shared: The bathroom may be shared with other occupants of the house, for example, the Host or other guests.
