That makes me wonder how laundry will work, cause a shared laundry room would be perfect. But would they wash the clothes of all tenants when only one party is washing? Would it work at all?

Well, it's the hampers that actually cause dirty clothes to generate. So my hope is that if you have a hamper in a specific apartment, then that sim (or their maid or butler) will use the laundry room to wash the laundry generated in that apartment (either autonomously or when directed, but hopefully both). Whereas if another apartment does not have a hamper, they will not have dirty laundry, and will not use the machines in the common area laundry room. Although I suppose if the sim with the laundry drops it in a pile in the laundry room, someone else still might pick it up, toss it in the washer, and start it up.
