Question 73

A door that remained open

The laundrette was spacious, with enough room for a wheelchair to turn between the rows of machines. It was bright even at the back, where a long window faced a blank wall. I arrived carrying a wet duvet and found the largest washer occupied. Rather than wait beside it, I sat at the folding table. Someone had left a pencil and a crossword there. For half an hour, a job I normally postponed became the only thing I needed to do.

From the passage, select two words or phrases that describe the laundrette's interior.
