Restrooms
We are working toward restroom accessibility for people of all genders and abilities.

All restrooms have wheelchair-accessible stalls.
You can also find two Everyone, or single-occupancy, restrooms, on Level G below Sharf 澳门六合彩开奖现场直播or Center. The spaces are equipped with changing tables and are fully accessible for people who use wheelchairs, require assistance, or privacy.
