Do rooms have private bathrooms?

Do rooms have private bathrooms?

Yes. All of our dormitory rooms—both on-campus and off-campus—are equipped with private bathrooms. This means you’ll have your own toilet and shower inside your room, without needing to share these facilities with students from other rooms or floors.

We believe that privacy and comfort are essential to a positive study abroad experience, and having a private bathroom is one of the key features that makes 3D ACADEMY’s dormitories stand out from other schools.

This FAQ provides more details about the bathroom facilities, what’s included, cleaning schedules, and other common concerns.

What does “private bathroom” mean?

A “private bathroom” means that the toilet and shower are located inside your own dormitory room and used only by you and your roommates. You do not share your bathroom with students from other rooms or public areas.

Whether you are staying in:

• a single room (1 person),

• a double room (2 people),

• a shared room (3–6 people),
  you will always have a dedicated, in-room bathroom available to you.

Each private bathroom is directly accessible from within your room, ensuring ease of use at any time—day or night.

What amenities are included in the private bathroom?

Every bathroom includes the following:

• Western-style toilet with flush

• Enclosed shower area

• Hot and cold water

• Sink with mirror

• Towel rack or hook

• Floor drain

• Basic ventilation or exhaust fan

Some rooms may have slightly different layouts, depending on the dormitory building, but all bathrooms follow the same general standard of cleanliness and privacy.

Soap, shampoo, and toilet paper are not provided regularly—students should prepare their own personal hygiene products.

How often are bathrooms cleaned?

All dormitory bathrooms are cleaned twice a week as part of our regular room cleaning service. Our housekeeping staff will:

• Scrub and sanitize the toilet and shower

• Clean the sink and mirror

• Empty the bathroom trash bin

• Mop the bathroom floor

Cleaning days are scheduled by dormitory zone. You don’t need to request this—it is automatic and included in your dormitory fee.

To help maintain a clean environment between cleanings, we kindly ask students to:

• Keep personal items organized and off the floor

• Avoid flushing anything other than toilet paper

• Report any plumbing issues promptly

What should I bring?

While the bathroom is fully functional, we recommend that you bring or purchase the following:

• Towels (quick-dry is ideal)

• Toiletries (toothbrush, shampoo, soap, etc.)

• Slippers for the bathroom (to keep feet dry)

• Small caddy or basket to organize your items

• Toilet paper (available at local convenience stores)

What about hotel dormitories?

Students staying in off-campus hotel dormitories—such as Prestigio or YELLO—also enjoy private bathrooms in every room. These are hotel-grade bathrooms with:

• Full-size shower areas

• Large mirrors and bright lighting

• Daily or weekly cleaning (depending on the hotel’s service)

• Towels and basic amenities often provided at check-in

These off-campus residences offer slightly more luxurious facilities compared to the on-campus dorms, though both options include full private bathrooms.

Shared vs. Private: What makes our system different?

Many English language schools in the Philippines—especially budget schools—still use shared bathroom systems, where students on the same floor or in multiple rooms use one communal bathroom.

At 3D ACADEMY, we believe in personal space and comfort, which is why we have installed private bathrooms in every room, regardless of size or price point.

Benefits include:

• No waiting in line during peak hours

• More privacy when showering or using the toilet

• Easier hygiene management

• Reduced risk of cross-contamination or shared messes

• 24/7 convenience without needing to walk to a common area

⚠️ Are there any rules or restrictions?

Yes, to keep the bathrooms functioning well for everyone, please observe the following:

• Do not flush tissues, sanitary items, or food down the toilet—use the trash bin provided

• Avoid long showers that may cause the floor to flood

• Use only approved cleaning agents (if you do personal cleaning) to avoid damaging surfaces

• Report any leaks or plumbing issues to the dorm supervisor or front desk immediately

• Do not allow guests to use your bathroom without permission

Final Thoughts

We understand that bathroom privacy is a major concern for students living abroad. That’s why we made it a core policy to provide private bathrooms in every room, across all dormitory types.
