Plenty of upgrades and new additions have come to Warsaw courtesy of the Euro 2012 tournament – check out that shiny new stadium across the river – but one of the most interesting improvements can be found at Warsaw Central Station. The station’s reliably skuzzy communist-era bathrooms have been stunningly replaced with modern toilets and urinals that inexplicably offer walls with images like wrinkly puppies or the White House for the men, and shelves of books or sun-soaked terraces for women. There is also an in-bathroom shop filled with drinks and snacks in case you’ve worked up an appetite in the stall. Dutch company 2theloo created the new restrooms as part of the 48 million złoty overhaul the station recently completed, but fortunately it will only cost you 2,5zł for the pleasure to use them. There are large “2theloo” signs directing you to the five locations one of which is open 24 hours.
