Curse of Strahd - You're not privy to that information [musings]

Blue Water Inn - Not a privy in sight.

The maps for Curse of Strahd are lovely examples of the work that Mike Schley has done for D&D5e, yet they are generally lacking in one thing. 

Privies. Bathrooms. WCs. Toilets.

The only place I've found one so far has been at the Wizard of Wines Vineyard (W7), and that feels like an addition that's there to support the wild west feel of the scenario at that point where the characters are likely under fire from needle blights.

There is a bath chamber in Castle Ravenloft itself (K43), but again, that serves a certain trope within the genre.

Now, this is unlikely to be Mike's fault - he'll be working from sketches from the scenario writers.

It just seems odd that there's nothing at all.
