English term or phrase: restroom
Recently I visited a hospital near Chicago. I urgently needed the restroom and inquired at the front desk. The receptionist pointed down the hall and explained that the restrooms were in a little alcove off the hallway. I rushed to the alcove and as I rounded the comer, a housekeeper was just backing into the men's room, pulling her cart in with her. I put my hand on her cart and said, "Please hold it just a second. 1 need to use the restroom."

  -> Há imensas opções. "Lavabos" seria uma delas, mas a forma mais comum é "casa de banho"
