✕Common Mistakes
Son baños en cada planta.
‘Son’ is the verb ser and cannot be used to express existence; use hay instead.
Hay los baños en cada planta.
When talking about the existence of bathrooms in general, omit the article; ‘Hay baños…’ is correct.
Hay baños en cada piso.
‘Piso’ is acceptable in Latin America but can sound odd in Spain; match the regional variant you’re using.

Cultural Tip
In Spain people say planta for a building level, while in most of Latin America the word piso is preferred. Both are understood, but using the local term can make you sound more natural. Also, note that public restrooms in Spain are often gender‑specific, so you might hear “baños de hombres” and “baños de mujeres”.
