Two years ago while cruising on the Shannon, we stopped off in Banagher to sample the delight of J.J. Houghs. I have the pictures of the toilets but Guinness got the better of me and rating these toilets proved to be an issue. Anyone care to fill in the blanks??

These ratings are for the Men’s toilets.
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.
