  Comments:
I think a 浴室 pretty much has to have a bath and/or shower. "Washroom" is often just used for a toilet and hand-washing facility, and probably doesn't work well here.

It would be good to have a succinct way of telling Americans 
it's a room with a bath in it, and not the usual euphemism.

  Comments:
This doesn't mean "bath" as in "bathtub".
I think some of the JEs have it because "bath" can mean "bathroom" in American English.
We don't need it here.
