Objective

Provide a lockable space to accommodate storage of spa supplies, linens, garments, footwear, and towels. Attendants will stock lockers, fold linens, clean footwear, and maintain the locker facilities from this room.

Space Planning

When possible combine the issue storage areas for the men and women into one space. Include a common passageway to permit sharing resources. This room must be easily accessible to the locker facilities with a discreet entrance. Make certain there is no line of sight into the locker rooms from this area.
