TD Tower: 5th Floor (Western Forests Products)

** (out of *****)

The 5th floor is intimidating. It’s covered entirely in austere beige wallpaper and on either side of the elevator lobby area are massive floor-to-ceiling hardwood double doors, sealed shut with a high-tech, probably voice activated electronic locking mechanism. What goes on behind these doors I can only imagine. If WFP were planning on taking over the world this is where they’d be doing it.

Anyways, the bathroom on this floor is a strange amalgam of all the other facilities we’ve visited in the TD Tower so far. One of the walls is black like our own, another is white and the entrance is more of the beige wallpaper. Its lay-out is also similar to ours, except the paper towel dispenser is beside the door and to the left of the sink is the ubiquitous Acura advertisement.

The toilets are nice, except instead of a handle-bar flusher you have to press a small, hard to find button on the toilet’s left side.

My overall experience was enhanced by a fellow visitor to the bathroom who was probably the greatest whistler I’ve ever heard. He was belting out some Disney song at full volume, and it was like I was doing my business to the theme of Beauty and the Beast. If this guy were a permanent bathroom fixture it would’ve pumped up this facility’s rating to at least a three and a half.

Overall, if you’re looking for a unique TD Tower bathroom experience, I’d say give this one a shot. The facilities aren’t spectacular though.
