 | | A washroom is a room for washing one's hands (i.e., a lavatory), but the term also is used to denote a toilet room, also sometimes referred to as a "restroom". |
 | | Usually the term "washroom" is used to denote a public, commercial, or industrial facility designed for high throughput, whereas a similar term "bathroom" is used to denote a smaller, often residential facility for lesser throughput (i.e., often for only one person at a time to use). |
 | | For example, in beach areas, a portion of each washroom is often equipped with benches so that persons can change into or out of their bathing suits. |
