Airbnb should change description of "number of bathrooms" to "number of toilets"

In many Eastern European countries, there exists one room where the toilet sits, and another room where the shower/bath exists. Because of this, when travellers filters for 2 bathrooms, what you end up with are a lot of apartments with only one toilet - but the host has listed it as 2 bathrooms because there are literally 2 rooms. This makes the # of bathrooms filter pretty useless, as the traveller is probably looking for apartments with 2 toilets.

Airbnb should change the text, and then send an email to all hosts in Eastern Europe and ask them how many toilets do they have, and not how many bathrooms they have.

We are 5 adults making reservations for Paris, Florence, Tuscany, Rome for 18 days. Our challenge is that the listings do not list the number of toilets. It has become obvious to us that this infomation is delibertly hidden by some Host. We have seen many 2.5 & 2 Bathroom listings that do not picture nor show in a floor plan 2 toilets. We are now avoiding any listings that do not list/show the number of toilets.
