I believe the bowls are for washing-related purposes but I did not ask. I don't recall how many rooms are on the floor, but I would expect many are sharing a single common bathroom, which happens to be just across the hall from this particular room. FWIW, the window in the door is covered with what appears to be white paper.Brian Glucrofthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02144046195231802682noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3263613130427456647.post-12368046054213728762012-10-25T20:46:13.411+08:002012-10-25T20:46:13.411+08:00Looks like very uncomfortable stools.

With four people in a room, how many people share the bathroom? <br /><br />Mosquito netting? That's not something you see in American dorms.<br /><br />The door doesn't look like the sort of door I'd expect for a dorm room, with that window in it. More like a classroom door.Dirkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02887572289745717834noreply@blogger.com
