We were going to stop at Mimoza for lunch the other day but their pides were expensive, so then we asked Seril if they could swap the ayran for cay in their doner meal deal, they refused, so had delicious pancakes and cay opposite Seril instead.
If places get greedy with their charges there's plenty of other places to choose. More people need to vote with their feet.
Thanks for the warning, and you tell em Barb

I am the 1% then. I love it. All our committee was going to go to the Mimoza today. I will call and ask them if they want to go to Guvens instead. Bee??

I am not a fan of Mimosa but as anyone actually been charged for use of the toilets? I have read the opening thread and not sure if
they are saying they were charged or were told about the charge. Has anyone been charged before everyone boycotts the place?

Sounds like they were charged to me:

"Hence we visited once and a shame but never went back throughout our stay"

And does it matter if they were charged or if the owner said they charged - I don't see the difference really?

In Portimao on the Algarve they charge something like 20cents for the women's public loo and a little old lady stands outside and gives out ONE square sheet of toilet paper to each entrant.

In Turkey some of the toilets would have to pay me to enter  :)

Not only in the Algarve Stoop   -  the same thing happened to us last summer in Saklikent.....lady outside rationing paper and a small entrance fee (can't remember how much).  But then we did get a splash of cologne afterwards !!!

I think we are turning this slightly off topic to "Stories about foreign toilets". I do hope so :D
