Plan your next step
1 Decide in this order
Choose private scrub versus communal use before looking at venue hours or seller actions.
- Is the main intent a private scrub or communal facility visit?
- Which location fits the itinerary?
- Does current operating information support the planned arrival?
- Are communal changing and facility expectations acceptable?
- Are privacy, sleeping or overnight assumptions being avoided?
- If private scrub is required, has the Seshin decision been used instead?
