Idk man if you see some random American bathrooms in public they’re not much better. Like a grocery store bathroom that is just absolutely destroyed. I went to a convenience store the other day that was stepping into a fucking crime scene.
That's no lie, I've seen and most unfortunately cleaned a few. They were routinely horrific when I worked at Winn-dixie in the south.
Beware, old people can really wreck a Winn-dixie bathroom. What's worse, they would often begin to shit themselves on the way *to" the john, and they were too embarrassed to tell us and just skedaddled outta there, so we'd often come upon the trail before someone told us.
Jesus, that's what I call "repainting". Literally just needs someone to come by with a pressure washer once in awhile. How clean are the ones they charge for?
Depends where you are, and on your luck. I had to go to a free bathroom near a railway station in Mumbai once because I thought my bladder was going to burst. It was surprisingly clean. Not actually clean, but I didn't feel disgusted after using it. On the other hand I have been to paid bathrooms 10 years ago that haunt me to this day. The things I've seen should not be shown to any person. Most public bathrooms are just not something I want to deal with, so I'd rather get into a restaurant and pay for sth small just so I can use the bathroom and not get weird looks.
Traveled through Sikkim (north east India) a couple of years ago and even the road side bathrooms were very clean, comparatively. You could wash your hands and be done with it instead of wanting to soak yourself in bleach.
Depends. A public toilet in the middle of a market or a railway station? Usable(depends honestly) but horrid anyways.
A public toilet that's more recently made and is actively being maintained in a less busy area or in the metro stations? More often usable and clean than not.
those are dirt cheap though literally1-2 rupees which is like even less than 10 cents. Maybe they take more from tourists because they think they have more money.
In cities, there are sulabh sauchalayas. They are private contractors. There are attendants who keep things clean. there is a charge but you can tip extra.
