Ratings (marks out of 10)
Area Cleanliness: 9
Smell/Odour: 5 (No smell either way)
Running Water: 8
Hand wash/Soap: 8 (Both soaps were full but hard to press)
Hand dryer/towels: 8 (Two dryers – one over each sink)
Toilet paper: 5 (Very light paper – easily breakable when using)
State of the floor: 8
State of the toilet: 10
Toilet checklist: 0 (Didn’t see a checklist – not very visible)

Other: While its great that there are two sinks for one cubicle and two urinals, there is little space when you walk in if people are at the sinks. One almost blocks the door coming in and the other blocks the door to the cubicle. Maybe just a bit small for two sinks but great to see good facilities none the less. Bonus points: -2 (For lack of space)

Total Score: 59

Overall comments: Overall these toilets are nice and great to see well kept toilets. A bit small for two sinks but good overall. Just to note that there is a disabled toilet but didn’t get a chance to look at it.

Ratings (marks out of 10)
Area Cleanliness: 6
Smell/Odour: 5 (No smell either way)
Running Water: 4 (Not much hot water)
Hand wash/Soap: 2 (Soap dispenser nearly empty even though recently checked)
Hand dryer/towels: 7

State of the floor: 6 (Floor was a bit dirty)
State of the toilet: 3 (Inside rim of the toilet was filthy and obviously not cleaned recently)
Toilet checklist: 7 (Checklist there and updated but obviously means little)

Other: Toilet has baby changing facilities and is well set up for a wheelchair bound person to use. Bonus points: 5 for those facilities.

Total Score: 59

Overall comments: Overall toilets are ok. Its bad form that the checklist showed the toilet is checked regularly but no care given. Why wasn’t toilet paper in the holder, why was the soap almost empty and why is the toilet so dirty despite all being checked each hour for the previous 6 hours? Dirty toilets don’t really make you want to have a food from a place or stop again unless desperate.

Total Score: 63

Overall comments: The toilets are obviously checked regularly and are always clean whenever I’ve been there. I find the doors in quite cramped as you have to enter two doors to get in and one opens in on top of the other and so you could easily get a smack. Overall in a good usable state.
