فِي الحَمَّامِ يُوجَدُ حَوْضٌ.فِي الحَمَّامِ تُوجَدُ مِرْآةٌ.The room is only the location phrase.
Useful simpler alternative

فِي غُرْفَتِي سَرِيرٌ وَخِزَانَةٌ.

You may omit the verb in a simple location sentence. The meaning remains “In my room there is a bed and a wardrobe.”

Non-human plurals · Develop

فِي الغُرْفَةِ تُوجَدُ كَرَاسِي كَثِيرَةٌ.

Non-human plurals commonly behave as feminine singular for agreement, so تُوجَدُ and a feminine singular adjective are used.

أَهْلًا! أَنَا مَرْيَمُ، وَسَأَصِفُ ثَلَاثَ غُرَفٍ فِي بَيْتِنَا. فِي غُرْفَةِ نَوْمِي يُوجَدُ سَرِيرٌ أَبْيَضُ وَمَكْتَبٌ بُنِّيٌّ، وَتُوجَدُ خِزَانَةٌ كَبِيرَةٌ وَمِرْآةٌ صَغِيرَةٌ. عَلَى المَكْتَبِ يُوجَدُ حَاسُوبٌ وَمِصْبَاحٌ.

فِي المَطْبَخِ تُوجَدُ ثَلَّاجَةٌ بَيْضَاءُ وَغَسَّالَةٌ، وَيُوجَدُ مَوْقِدٌ وَحَوْضٌ. هُنَاكَ أَيْضًا طَاوِلَةٌ وَأَرْبَعَةُ كَرَاسِي.

أَمَّا غُرْفَةُ الجُلُوسِ فَفِيهَا أَرِيكَةٌ زَرْقَاءُ وَتِلْفَازٌ كَبِيرٌ وَسَجَّادَةٌ جَمِيلَةٌ. أُحِبُّ غُرْفَةَ الجُلُوسِ لِأَنَّهَا وَاسِعَةٌ وَمُرِيحَةٌ.
