Strange hotel description
 
Looking for a hotel in Amsterdam, I found this: "The bathrooms all have shower, bad and toilet"

What is "BAD"?? Can it be a misspelled or not translated "bidet"?

It's in the Tulip Inn, guest rooms, overview.

My guess would be that it has a tub as well as a shower. Some hotels only have shower stalls.

It is probably "bath" misspelled...

Bad means either bathroom or tub.

Bath (english) = Bad (Dutch)

Oh, thank you all!

Now, if only somebody would make a hotel reservation for me :)) Unfortunately I hate to make choices!

I took a picture of my husband walking into a door labeled "Bad Toilet" in Denmark. I was inspired.

Faina, in France, I've seen: No farts allowed or farts allowed.
It means PETS!!!
