Joining the sink and toilet together looks sleek, but it also creates a perfect slide right into the toilet bowl.

Yeah. Another reason to keep it closed when not used.
- Right? Just close the toilet before you flush, that's what the lid is there for.
  Otherwise the aerosolised germs are getting on your toothbrush anyway.
  
  Poo particles, if you will.
- I still wouldn't like the toothbrush touching the lid
  
  just the tip

That is disgusting. I know that’s not how it actually works but having the toilet physically connected to the sink looks afwul from a hygiene perspective
- In japan they put the handwashing sink on the back of the toilet. It's smaller, smarter, and doesn't look weird and gross like this.
  Then they brush their teeth in a different room so their toothbrush isn't two feet from their shit.
  
  Funny enough that's how most jail/prison toilets are in the US too.
- Using the water from handwashing to fill the cistern just makes sense.

pArKoUr!

Combined toilet-sinks are a thing. It saves water by reusing the water you used to wash your hands to flush the toilet.

Classic crappy design... Guaranteed phone and toothbrush in the toilet?
- phone, toothbrush, pretty much anything really
  
  It's for when you want to poop in the sink

Is no one going to talk about how small of a target that is? Cause I feel like my kids would piss everywhere except the bowl.
- That's part of the challenge--like Poop Plinko. Can you roll 'em down the slide and land them in the small bowl?
  
  I get the design now. You sit with our feet in the sink and let 'em plink.
- Have them sit down
  
  For some reason, my kids daycare trained my boys to pee standing up. Why?

Can't wait to accidentally knock my phone into the toilet! At least it will be a fun ride

I recognize this bathroom! This was just one of many form-over-function design features in the hotel room!
- where was it if you don't mind me asking?
  
  I'm sorry I didn't see the notification for this. I saw this exact bathroom at an airport hotel - Heathrow I think?
