I would be going on the Roads Scholar Painting week alone and wonder about the conveniences in the single room - like is there a private bath as part of the room? I see no photos of the sleeping accomodations. Could you describe please? Thank you.

Rooms are clean and simple, two beds a night stand with lamp in between and 2 bookshelves. If you do a single you have extra bed. Toilet is shared but it's never too crowded in my experience.
