Countries like India very badly need something like this. I grew up there, and back then -- and I am told not much has changed since then -- public restrooms were far and few between. Even the ones that existed were so unhygenic and dirty, I would torture myself and try to "hold everything in" till I could get home or to a friend's place.
I would definitely pay for something like this if I were in India and they had it there.
- m52go 11y agoJust took a 2-week trip there--with a 1-week road trip--and I second this a thousand times. Especially for tourists, it's SO worth paying for. It's a matter of staying well on a trip you've already paid thousands of bucks for. Don't hesitate to charge. EDIT: I see you're not hesitating to charge. Excellent!
- pcr0 11y agoI totally sympathize. It's funny because I've seen paid toilets in rural Indian towns since almost a decade ago. But it made no difference to toilet quality because they would just pocket the money and service the toilet as little as they possibly could. Where we stayed it was pretty much a social norm to stray onto someone's farmland, take a dump in a nice spot then do the awkward walk till you find the nearest water source.
