2.5/5

Location:

There is only one bathroom shared between the first and second floor of this library. This means if you at all plan to utilize these floors, this is your best shot. Unfortunately, it can be quite a walk if you like to use the space beyond the bookshelves on the wall.
3/5 - 2nd Floor
2/5 - 1st Floor

Traffic:

One would think having to share a bathroom between two floors would make said bathroom quite the happening place, but surprisingly, even with both floors fairly active, the bathroom never housed more than 2 other members at a time (not including me). Yet, you will still not find that oh-so-desirable peace.

 Atmosphere and Cleanliness

The first thing you will undoubtedly notice is the unappealing aquamarine theme (unless you are color blind, which in this case is a positive). That, alongside the slightly dim lights, paints a sullen mood to poop in. It's not all bad to want to stand out from the other restrooms--I encourage it in fact--but you can't just slap an odd color of paint on the walls and expect to be hailed as the next Van Gogh of restrooms.
While not the worst bathroom in the library, I was surprised to find it in slightly worse shape than the main floor (The review of which, can be found here). It’s not often a bathroom breaks the Golden Rule, although not totally unheard of, especially in understandable cases–such as this case, I imagine–in where maintaining the first floor usually takes more priority. Nevertheless, it was on the whole, less clean than the main floor’s bathroom, however only to a small degree.
2.5/5

Summary:

With Hayden's limited choice of bathrooms, this is about the kind of quality you will be forced to settle for. That being said, it was not awful, and it's clear it has had a good amount of upkeep when compared to the amount of usage it undoubtedly has.

2.3/5
