Where did people go to the washroom in castles in the medieval times?

There were no wash rooms in medieval castles. People washed in their bed chambers, if they washed at all, from containers of water brought by their servants. Castles were never intended for anyone to live their comfortably or for long periods, which is why knights mainly lived at their manors. Perhaps you meant to ask about latrines, which were usually built into the thickness of a wall, with access from the bed chamber or from the main hall. These had a narrow window without glass and a wooden plank with a hole in the centre - this was built to project out from the wall below so that body waste dropped down to land in a cesspit at the base of the wall (as at Dover castle) or into the moat (which eventually became a disgusting sewer).

Facts about round keep castles?

Round Keep Castles were a type of castle during the medieval times. They were not built on a motte, unlike shell keeps. They were an adaptation of the square keep castles except they had round or polygonal walls. Medieval builders couldn't make the round keep castles as big as the square keep castles, so they were often cramped for space.
