Travelers might like to know the best restrooms in the US are inside The Field Museum in Chicago. So says the Cincinnati-based Cintas Corporation, a provider of restroom products that hosts a yearly contest.
“Host to over 1.3 million visitors each year, the museum strives to give visitors the best service and exhibitions; we also feel this about the amenities and we are pleased to offer our guests these unique restrooms," said Jim Croft, who as vice president oversees the restrooms.
The ceilings of The Field Museum’s two large family-friendly restrooms features artwork of a beautiful night sky, a calming image that also absorbs sound. The women's restroom has a special nursing room with a door, sink and small sofa for mothers. The restrooms also feature a family-friendly "tot area" with smaller toilets for its littlest guests, according to the site.
The restrooms are cleaned every hour to ensure the facilities are in tip-top shape for the 3,500 visitors the museum welcomes each day.
