Belarus was awesome in this respect. There were quite a lot of public loos, they cost practically nothing. Some were quite old but stilll reasonably clean. Some were new and spotless. No queues like in London or insane prices like in Stockholm. Stockholm has the disgusing habit of just mixing men and women inside the facilities, instead of having a separate section for each gender. That should be illegal IMHO. I don't massively mind no-sitting toilets as long as they are clean. That was the standard in Belarus. In Belarus, I forgot my handbag with quite a lot of money in a public loo. I did not realise it until 15 minutes later. Can you imagine, I got it back!

Ukraine gets a thumbs-down from me in this respect. The public toilets were dirty and smelled. People using them were complaining that they were disgusting. In some places there were plastic one-unit toilets of the type that are used on carnivals etc.
I noticed that there were old ladies sitting outside asking for money. Not sure if they were maintenance staff or just begging. They did not appear to clean it at any rate.
