Perhaps they're doing this whole exercise (leaving lights on at night) as a way of seeing how things like this look. I don't know how they could fix this (maybe frosting the windows?) but it does indeed seem not great.

I suspect you will soon have many views of unsuspecting hotel guests taking an evening bathroom break.. That's pretty terrible design, I have to admit.

About 10 years ago when I was looking to buy a condo, I checked out a unit in a building on King, just east of Spadina. I think it’s next to the Bulk Barn. The 1 BR had 1 bathroom, not ensuite (understandable for a 1 BR, as you don’t want your guest to go through your bedroom to use the bathroom). What makes it terrible is there’s a huge glass partition between the bathroom and bedroom, with no blinds. So a guest using the bathroom can see your bedroom, and conversely if a guest is taking a leak or dump in the bathroom, you can see it from the bedroom! I guess the idea behind the design was for you to soak in the bathtub while enjoying views of the city through your bedroom window. At the time, there was no high rise across the street, so it could work (without addressing the problem of having a guest using the bathroom). But now if you do so (with your bedroom window blinds up), people living in the condo across the street would be treated to a view of you in the buff.

I think the condo was built around 2002-2007, but even back then they must have known there would be taller buildings across the street. Maybe they were targeting exhibitionists?
 
Someone sitting on a crapper is a normal function. People do weirder stuff in the main areas of condos.
