Rick Steves is well into middle age now and his advice, tours, etc. have altered accordingly.
I always figured he didn't mind a room with only a sink in it because he's tall, he's a guy, and so he can easily pee in the sink. Not so easy for those of us with the other kind of equipment! (However, I've managed it many a time. Once I even stayed in a place in Belfast where the nearest toilet was down TWO steep flights of stairs! Boy did that sink come in handy in the morning!
