Why this phrase
Japan Decoded. The large toilet with a wheelchair on the door is 「多目的トイレ」, built for wheelchairs, strollers, and people who need help. Tourists with luggage duck in because it looks roomy. The person waiting actually needs it. Warm, not a scold: use the regular stall, park the bag outside. Solo. One takeaway: 多目的トイレ.
