I had a friend who lived there for years. When he got his place the bathroom was pretty groddy, but believe it or not with a bottle of CLR, rubber gloves and a mask the place became 1930 again. It looked brand new. Todd had a "Reclaim my bath and kitchen" pizza party. We did it in a saturday and the charm of the original tiles was still there. So unless they are broken up, just use some elbow grease, your own and a few friends , play Cole Porter and you'll be pleasantly surprised.
