Sure, but the OP wants to do something themselves, which I can absolutely understand. And where else, if not in the small guest WC, should one try it out for the first time? Otherwise, I would never be able to do anything myself. Maybe it takes 10 times as long, so what, it can also be fun.
On my second attempt many years ago, it was also the guest bathroom in the basement. When I turned the corner with the tiles, 15cm were missing in height :eek: :eek::eek:.... hmm, so I glued a tile frame and put a mosaic made from leftovers inside. There was also a mishap on the floor, but we found a solution there too, even if it was individual. I wouldn’t have wanted it like that in the main bathroom on the ground floor.
I think you can be a bit bolder there.

If I get a tile cutter, then it's not much with such a small area. And 60 + 20 I can't imagine. That would look asymmetrical. Maybe it would be best if I get a fast-set adhesive for the angle grinder and then tile two rows from the front first, let them dry, and then continue towards the back. That way I can step on the laid tiles after a short time and don't have to wait a whole day for the adhesive to cure. I couldn't use a leveling system then, but I do have a spirit level.

It is indeed time-consuming, but you can do it that way :cool:

In the basement, where no one can see!

I laid my first tiles where the oil tanks were placed anyway. That was better anyway :cool:
