Bathroom type added to listing description!

This is a good sign. Just noticed a new setting on the Listing>Basics screen where you can set Private or Shared Bathroom.  I still don't see where guests can filter their searches based on the value of the field, but this is progress.

@Dee33 This is, apparently, something they're rolling out to a limited number of listings. I don't yet see it on ours.

But its appaearance might depend on the type of listing in the first place -- whole place vs room, etc, etc. (Our listing is an entirely private space, so the privacy of the bathroom might not even be in contention.)

Oh and @Dede0, have you noticed the other change which I believe is a glitch but "private entrance" has been added but it is crossed out.  Not sure why private entrance for a whole house listing.  It also had "Private livingroom"  was there for awhile but it looks like they might have fixed that one..

@Dave-and-Deb0 Yeah, I'd noticed the "private entrance" and "private living room" things, just today. Given that our totally private apartment (attached to, but upstairs from, a large house where Dede lives) has a private entrance, that new, floaty-boaty checkbox was a no-brainer. But the "private living room" required a bit of a pause... Not checking the box could be assumed to imply that we'd all be sitting around together in a common living room watching Dancing with the Stars or some such, while checking the box would imply that there actually *was* an entire private living room in our (totally private and self-contained, super-large and multi-room) "studio" apartment. In the end, I chose to claim that, because of the size and layout of our place, we *did* have a "private living room". Do we? Don't we? I'll leave it to our guests and so far, 96.5% of our guests just love the crap out of us...
