The People: private dorms share bathrooms
Double/twin and Family Comfort rooms have private bathrooms. Private dormitories for four, six or eight use shared bathrooms. For four travelers, the family room and a privatized dorm therefore solve different bathroom requirements.
JO&JOE: check the atypical categories
Private en-suite accommodation sits alongside atypical double, triple and six-person rooms with shared bathrooms. Double XL is described for three with an en suite. A private double label alone is insufficient if bathroom privacy is essential.
St Christopher’s and FIAP: start with named private facilities
St Christopher’s lists en-suite single, double and twin rooms, plus a private four-bed en-suite category. FIAP describes a twin with private shower and toilet and a private four-bed category with two shower rooms. Keep those specific categories in view rather than applying their facilities to every room.
Use the difference to narrow the search
For a couple requiring an en suite, exclude shared-bathroom categories first. For a group comfortable sharing facilities, compare a private dorm alongside the other acceptable rooms. Then use the whole-party total and cancellation terms to decide between equivalent offers.

Planning notes
This comparison separates exclusive use of the sleeping room from exclusive use of the bathroom. It covers the named private categories at four shortlisted properties; it is a category guide rather than a count of rooms available to book.
Keep in mind
Room names and categories can differ between offers. Check the bathroom description attached to the exact room for your party and dates.
