You will get few that meet all of these criteria on a worldwide basis.
The proposal looks like it is a requirement to meet all 4 of these 
criteria.

In some climates wet weather is a lesser concern, so wet clothing 
facilities are less frequently used and as such stored out of the way - 
thus less obvious.
'Extensive' is a subjective term.
The word 'including' means that all these things are required to meet 
the criteria.
The words 'for example' could replace 'including' to allow a few of 
these things or other things to be used to meet the criteria.

I would take a broader view. I would take 'no' to mean 'discourages' as 
well as the meaning 'rejects'.

The meaning of 'customary' is 'usual practice' ... what your proposal 
takes as 'customary' is a lesser friendliness that the 'yes' case. This 
is not the meaning of the word 'customary'! And it is confusing to a 
native English speaker.
Do not use this word this way.

A better word might be 'partial', meaning 'not total, but a bit'.

Discussion can also take place here, and you should observe these too.
