Check Toilet Cleanliness Before Travel

Vilnius, 19 October 2026 – A free website created in Lithuania by active travellers launched publicly on 19 October 2026 to help travellers find toilets and check cleanliness and what to expect before they arrive at cafes, restaurants and other venues.

Why toilet cleanliness matters in travel planning

The creators are active travellers, and the idea developed for more than eight years before its public launch. The service is designed for phones and computers, so a traveller can use it during trip preparation without downloading an app or creating an account merely to search for information about a destination or venue.

Searches can use a city, venue name or address, with results shown on a map or in a list. Directions can then open in the traveller’s map application, while English and Lithuanian language options support use across the service. The ToileRate toilet map can also help with route planning.

What the listings reveal about a venue’s facilities

Filters help narrow the search to locations marked as having a toilet, open now, free to use, or accessible without a purchase. Travellers can also look for wheelchair accessibility and baby-changing facilities. These details are presented as practical information to check alongside the cleanliness assessment, rather than as a judgment of the wider venue.

Ratings apply to the toilet itself, not to the café, restaurant or sight as a whole. Scores come from reviews by registered visitors, and cleanliness is a required assessment criterion. The scores are not imported from Google or Facebook and are not generated by artificial intelligence, keeping the rating basis distinct from general venue reviews.

How to read ratings and contribute useful information

Practical information can be updated by venue representatives, who may also respond publicly to reviews, but they cannot edit or remove visitor ratings. Payments and advertising do not influence scores. Where information has not been established, it is labelled as unknown, giving travellers a clear caveat when comparing locations before a visit.

Travellers can add reviews, photos and suggested locations, helping improve the information available to others. The directory can therefore develop through contributions while its ratings remain tied to visitor assessments of the toilet itself. Before the trip, it is worth checking toilets in London.

Results can be considered before choosing where to stop, especially when a planned venue matters for a longer day out or an unfamiliar destination. The service does not replace checking conditions on arrival: access, opening status and facilities may still require attention, while unknown details should not be treated as confirmed facts.
