How can I know in advance if a private bathroom is not en suite?
A friend and I are going to visit Edinburgh. Since we are travelling from different locations and my stay is shorter, we booked different hotels. While booking her room, we searched together. I always use the "private bathroom" filter on booking.com and we did the same.
She booked the room and surprisingly received the below information. I don't know if that information was available anywhere before the process was completed.
Please note that the room is not en suite, but there is a private bathroom just across the corridor.
Although the reservation was non-refundable, the hotel accepted our cancellation request without charging anything. We are all good now, but I'm concerned about future bookings.
AFAIK there is no "en suite" filter on booking.com. How can we avoid that situation?

What is the non ensuite bathroom called?
There are often bathrooms that don't open to a hallway but are shared between two rooms. These are called "Jack-and-Jill" bathrooms. A guest bathroom, opening to a hallway, could be a "powder room" or a "half-bath" -- no shower or bathtub, just a toilet and sink.Does private bathroom mean ensuite?
Ensuite \u2013 Your own toilet and shower/bath accessed from WITHIN your room. Private \u2013 Your own toilet and shower/bath accessed from OUTSIDE your room.What is a non ensuite?
A private non-ensuite bathroom is one that can be accessed from the communal area but has been designated for use only by a specific person. For instance, if there is a three-bedroom apartment with three bathrooms, it makes sense for all three students to choose to have their own bathroom.What makes a bathroom a suite?
A bath suite is nothing more than a room with a fixed set of objects like a sink, a bath and/or shower and a toilet. It's the foundation upon which your new bathroom will be built, so it's worth beginning your project with an understanding of the kind of use your new bathroom suite is likely to get.5 ensuite room with private bathroom.
