Hi! I was writing an essay and just wondered which expression is correct;
1) Smoking is permitted in room A or room B only.
2) Smoking is permitted in room A and room B only.
----------and, even more confusing pattern....
3) Smoking is permitted only in room A or room B.
4) Smoking is permitted only in room A and room B.

Could anyone tell me which sounds better? Thank you!
