Accessible Toilet
There are two accessible toilets on the ground floor. When entering via door 1 turn left and you will find it on the left side. The toilet is equipped with two foldable support handles each furnished with toilet paper holders and flush buttons. The mirror is regrettably a bit high but the room offers enough space to maneuver.
The second accessible toilet is between entrances 1 and 2. When entering through door 1 turn right, go through the first door into the locker room. The toilet is on the left hand side after the lockers en route to door 2. This toilet has one fixed support handle and one foldable one. The mirror can be adjusted but the space in front of the toilet is narrow.
