Self cleaning toilets work pretty well for this. Odor doesn't just sit in the air if the room is ventilated at all. Usually it's a result of micro-organisms on surfaces covered in biological material and water. Most toilet odors are a result of a film of feces remaining on the bowl and seat after flushing. This is why, if you clean a toilet after using it, the odor will dissipate in less than a minute.

Regular cleaning, de-humidification, filling drain traps with water, and self cleaning toilets is more than enough to keep a restroom odor free.

That all sounds good on paper but are you going to pay the cost of all that maintenance or you will just use a air freshner which is cheap.

Air freshener would be great if it worked. But it doesn't. The stuff I mentioned is the minimum except the self cleaning toilets. Even then, just leaving a toilet brush and some cleaner isn't a bad idea. I pay all those costs at home and it ain't breaking the bank I tell you.
