UTS Toilet Reviews

Sadly, toilet fans, the page has to come to an end. I am approaching graduation and have spent my last day on campus so I am signing off.
Sorry for the lack of content in the last few months, personal troubles mean the page has fallen even further back in my mind. If any budding toilet fans at UTS wish to carry on the pages legacy, message the page and I will gladly pass on the torch.
Goodbye dear reader, always flush, wash your hands and double wipe (in that order).

Building 7, level 2, male toilets.

+ Dyson airblade dB
+ Mostly clean facilities
+ Good taps

+/- Grease arrestor room? What did grease do? What are they being charged with? Why does the room make a really loud gurgle thump noise? Why is the door so small? The mind of a mortal shudders at the possibilities of the contents of such a room.

- Very poorly lit. Originally I believed the lights were out but there are lights but theyre very weak. Unless you enjoy sh****ng in the dark, I suggest, dear readers, you limit your use of this room to standing activities only.
- Splatters on the floor under the urinals.
- Large foot prints leading from the grease arrestor room. It has escaped.

5/10
Although not immediately disgusting, this room is unnerving and its peculiar atmosphere creates the strangest experience I have had relieving myself on campus.

Hello toilet fans. Apologies for the lack of posts recently, StuVac and the flu have kept me from campus!

The Loft, Ambulant Unisex Toilet.

Does this count as a UTS toilet? Im not sure, but I am counting it as one because I make the rules.
Judge. Judy. Executioner.

+ Plenty of space.
+ Music from The Loft is loud enough to provide some nice ambience to your experience and the orange lights from the courtyard give a nice atmosphere.
+ Full body mirror!
+ Well kempt.
+ Hygienic bin for the period havers.
+ Handrails for the people who are actually supposed to use ambulant toilets.
+ Handrails for the people who have had too many schooners.

+/- If you find yourself here on a clear night when people are out in the courtyard you can hear them, and they can probably hear you too. This may present a challenge to the nervous p**pers among you, or not, if you're in to that, no judgement.

-No hand dryers, only paper towel, which honestly I prefer to traditional hand dryers, but its still not as good as the Dyson Airblade V or Airblade dB.
- Froster glass door. While not egregious in its own right, a frosted glass door just seems an odd design choice. Perhaps this was 9nce a storage room refitted into a toilet? One can only guess.

8/10. A comfortable toilet for the pi**ed and ambulant. While I'm yet to use the other toilets available at The Loft, the ambulant toilet is right in front of the door, so it presents an accessible option for patrons of The Loft.

Building 4, Level 3, Study area, mens toilet.

Very little to say about this, one finds themselves moved very little by this unadventurous toilet.

+ Air freshener.
+ An ambulant toilet.
+ High windows provide natural light, giving the toilet a more spacious feel.
+ Motion sensor taps

- Traditional hand dryers.
- Cramped urinals that one imagines as quite uncomfortable on busy days.
- Dark grey tiles throughout do little to excite visitors, making it blend in to most other toilets on campus.

5/10

I long for the days I was excited by the process of finding, using and presenting these toilets to you dear reader, and this toilet does very little to inspire anything but indifference.

Building 2, Level 8, Library mens bathroom

A pristine water closet for the hard working studying student. Excellent facilities to use while on a study break

+ Clean, well maintained urinals and stalls.
+ Air freshners provide a fresh experience.
+ Good water pressure and working soap dispensers.
+ Mistubishi Jet Towel hand driers (its no Dyson airblade dB, but to the layman it beats wiping your hands on your pants).

-Relatively high traffic means any turds will not be taken in peace. (The photos for this review are rushed due in part to my fear of being sprung taking photos of a bathroom).
-The design is a bit of a let down considering the library is the campuses newest building and this one of its newest toilets.

7.5/10 I expected much much more from one of the University's newest toilets, however I left satisfied with the cleanliness and general polish on my experience.

Second week back on campus and a return to our regularly scheduled "poo-gramming" dear reader.

Building one, level 3, "303" mens bathroom.
What this bathroom lacks in creativity, it makes up for in well nothing really. An unproblematic camode for a simpler man from a simpler time.

+Dyson hand dryer.
+Sharps container.
+Inoffensive smell.

= Odd shelf in front of the urinals. What esoteric purposes did the designer intend for such a strange construct? We may never know.

-Some lights did not work, lending the space a dungeon-esque atmosphere.
-Very early design does not hold up to the braver designs of newer buildings.
-Finger prints on the roof???
-Soap dispenser was empty.

6.5/10 a truly neutral experience.

Well well well toilet fans. Lockdowns been alot longer than any one could've expected. But worry not. I have been double vaxxed and I have been saving a lot (i mean a lot a lot) of p**p for next session. See you all then.

Sorry for the radio silence toilet fans. Due to uni break I haven't been on campus, let alone been p**pin there. Some classes will be returning face to face in the next session so expect more reviews in August.

Building 11, Level 4, Male Toilets.

I present to you dear reader, a toilet. Nothing less, nothing more.

+ Adventurous brown and orange colour scheme
+ An ambulant toilet
+ Drains for the aggressive urinators
+ Spacious and well lit
+ No suspicious splatter marks on the floor
+/- Very noticeable echo
- No privacy walls for the urinals
- Only a pair of dinky hand dryers
- One of them didn't work.

5.5/10
Doesnt disappoint, but doesnt exactly wow either.

Male toilets, Building 4, Level 2.
Dear reader, I present to you the best bathroom I have found thus far.
+ Blindingly well lit
+ High ceilings
+ Impeccably clean everything
+ Dyson Airblade hand drier
+ A view
+ Generous number of stalls and urinals
+/- The honeycomb windows mean the determined pedestrian could cop a cheeky peek at your gear if your using the urinals (could be good if your into that, I'm not here to judge friend.)

9/10. Well worth a visit.

Male foodcourt toilets, Building 2.

A rather poor choice of toilet to present to christen the page, but here we are.
+ Toilets are well lit
+ Clear attempt to make the experience nice, with black and white tile walls and a curving corridor leading you to the urinals and stalls
+ A considetate sharps container
+ No s**t on anything
+ Serviceable hand drier
-The smell
- Not a dyson hand drier
-THE SMELL
- Floor around the sinks covered in what one hopes is water
- THE SMEEELLLLLLLLLLL
- Well soaked toilets
-Floor around the urinals covered in what one knows is definitely not water

3.5/10
