A lot of German Hbf bogs are run by a firm trading as "McClean", and
they have a two-tier pricing system: EUR 0.60 for the stand-ups but a
whopping 1.10 for the cubicles! Not only expensive, but awkward 2-coin
(at least)  amounts as well.

Mind you, that's not the most I've paid; Oslo S is NOK 10; 98.5p
according to xe.com.  ISTR paying 2 Euros somewhere recently
(Grenoble, I think it was) which is extortionate.

Praha hl.n. is better two-tier value at CZK 5 (17p) for the "pissoar"
and  CZK 7 (25p) for the "kabina".
