Parent Room at Castle Plaza, Edwardstown

Today's featured Parent room is at Castle Plaza at Edwardstown.
This parent room definately has the most daring colour scheme I've seen so far.
The room itself is quite small. Only really big enough for one parent with a pram at a time.
One comfy chair for feeding but it seems too big for the room and squished really close  to the changing bench and sink. No real privacy if anyone else enters the room.
Due to the small space, there is no room for older children to play or even sit.
There are 3 sinks. One near the changing area, one near the microwave and bottle prep area and one in the bathroom.

The changing area was very clean but there is only enough room for one child to be changed at a time. 
There is a sink close by, nappy disposal bins, soap dispenser and hand dryer.
The bottle prep area has a microwave, sink and hand dryer. The button to open the sliding doors of the parent room is located here however, it seems a little too low. Could perhaps be frustrating if older children can reach it while your back is turned changing an infant. 
The toilet area is great! Normal sized loo for adults and a child sized one too! 
Plenty of room to take in pram if needed.
Another sink in the toilet area and it's low enough for children to wash their hands with ease. 

I found this parent room to be very bright and modern and very clean.
Lots of hand washing facilities with additional child sized toilets and sinks. 
The toilet area is large but the parent room itself is very small and really only big enough for one family at a time. Lacks private feeding areas and anywhere for older children to sit or play. 
Castle plaza isn't the biggest shopping centre in Adelaide but while I was there I noticed that there was a large number of mums with prams. I think the shopping centre should either look at expanding the current parent room or put in another one.
