SINGAPORE — An expat from the United Kingdom raved over the “quality of public toilets” in Singapore, saying that it was much worse back home and adding that they are her “particular favourite” and are “nicer than the ones” in her own house.
And while there were a lot of people who agreed with her, some locals stressed that the quality of public toilets in Singapore is not the same everywhere, and some even asked if she’s ever tried toilets in coffee shops.
“Shout out to SG public toilets, I ❤️ you #sgexpats,” wrote TikTok user @salshout in a Feb 9 video.

Some commenters on her post pointed out that the toilets at Jewel Changi Airport are particularly good.
“You should go jewel toilets u will love it. especially the handicap toilets the space is so big feel like own room,” wrote one TikTok user.
“I will be at the airport next week and I am particular excited about a trip to the loo pre-flight,” answered @salshout.
It seems that clean bathrooms are important to her, as she said in one comment that she loves “a good loo.”
The toilet for the persons with disabilities at Jewel has strong air-conditioning and a Japanese bidet, some netizens added.
And when one netizen wrote that she was “not impressed with our public toilets,” @salshout answered rather incredulously, “You’re not impressed?! Is your loo at home made from gold at home? If yes, can I come over for a test drive?”
“ION toilet is da bestttt,” another pointed out.
However, some argue that toilets at coffee shops have much to be desired.
@salshout had a reply for them as well, though.
Other commenters said that some MRT toilets aren’t in great shape either.
