#SFO airport international terminal A #fail part 2: women’s restroom G9:G12 are only partially available

When you need to board at Gate G9 through G12 at SFO airport inrternational terminal A, then don’t go to the men’s restrooms near G9:G12 at the upper level: the smell of urine is so strong and the floor so filthy that I got back in the hall finding clearner one’s.
