washrooms


Explanation:
I prefer this to 'sanitary facilities' -- that expression will always be found in government directives and public health ordinances because bureacrats prefer pompous wording. It's also found on construction sites because 'facility' can be anything -- a chemical toilet and a foot-pump operated handwasher in a tiny cubicle qualify as 'sanitary facilities'. 'Bathrooms' are what we have at home; 'washrooms' would be suitable for the floor of a building that has a canteen and administrative spaces next to it. 'Restroom' is the elevated euphemistic variation that's found more often in public spaces like restaurants where diners don't wish to be reminded of the inevitable consequence of eating and drinking.
