			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Your Review: Recently I had the chance to visit Portland, and of course I was interested in visiting Powell&#8217;s Books.I was browsing the shelves when I found that I had to pee. So I ran frantically trying to find the little boys room. I was relieved when I finally came across it. I ran into the first stall. As I sat there I found myself reading the etchings in the wall. Written there was a review of the bathroom. (I have to paraphrase here). &#8221;I think it is a nice bathroom but I am　afraid the guy peeing into the urinal beside me might be spying on me　5/10.&#8221; I think the score was quite fair. But the bathroom could be　kept in a better condition.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This ample sized restroom has been one of my favorites since the first time I walked in, when, surprise! There sits a mannequin in the corner. Yikes. A good commentary on fear/privacy/public clotheslines. Flowers, painted walls. A treat. </p>

		<description><![CDATA[Short on space but long on festive Cuban flavor.]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>As if straight out of Havana, this small Cuban restaurant in Portland featured a bright pink concrete facade and a warm tropical feel throughout. Clumsily located near the entrance to the busy kitchen, the restroom was small and rather hard to reach. It was modestly tidy, however, and featured the same warm yellow paint and decorative artwork seen throughout the building. The sanitary seat covers were a nice feature, but the restroom&#8217;s high-profile location may keep many from spending too much time &quot;dropping a yucca root&quot;.</p>

		<description><![CDATA[Smells like steam donkeys...]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I happened upon this rest stop while on a scenic drive from Portland to the Pacific. Located at the trailhead of the Steam Donkey Trail (Steam Donkeys were the name given to locomotives once used for hauling timber out of the forest), the facility was perched among beautiful landscape and large mossy trees.</p>
<p>The interior, however, was of the standard highway rest stop quality; broken, dirty and stinky. The polished metal mirrors were not so polished. And when I say MIRRORS, I actually mean MIRROR because one of them had apparently been torn off the wall. The peculiarly sour stench was tolerable only for a short period.</p>
<p>Also worth noting was the unprecedented decision to give the user a choice between stainless steel AND porcelin sinks.</p>

		<description><![CDATA[Nice one-holer]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Tucked away in the stockroom of the Trader Joes at 21st &#038; Glisan, this is a true gem. Clean, quiet, and private; it just doesn&#8217;t get any better than this. Add a few copies of National Geographic and I could easily spend the better part of a day sitting on this wondrous commode.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>There are a few people who tend to make this bathroom a less pleasant place to be, but overall it isn&#8217;t a bad place to stop in and visit. Sometimes there is a very lovely lemony scent that wafts through the air, as long as the big woman who never wears shoes hasn&#8217;t recently used the facilities. The new paper towel dispenser is pretty good at conserving towels, and rarely jams. Also, there is a bench where a weary woman could sit and wait for a free stall.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>After quaffing a few high quality brews in this German Brauhouse, the inevitible urge to purge the bladder makes the hunt for the toilet urgent. However, after being directed to walk past the open food preparation area, you encounter the dreaded stairway.  Yes, you must head into the bowels of the brewery to find respite.</p>
<p>After negotiating the narrow, loosely carpeted steps, you enter the tiny cubical that doubles as its own stall.  Smaller than most roadside gas station loos, this unisex facility virtually requires all to sit as there simply is not enough room to stand in front of the bowl and hit the target without contortions. Using bar soap is probably not the most satisfying method of lathering up afterwards, particularly if the cooks and waitstaff are using this same sink, but at least the hand dryer air is fed directly from the oven, nice and toasty.  The return trip up the stairs is just as risky, but at least you can follow the light at the top of the stairs and see your eventual goal.</p>
<p>Overall, make sure that you depart this restaurant shortly after &quot;tapping the keg&quot; as return trips following a few more pints of Hefe may be hazardous. Unfortunately, this restroom did not match the &quot;upper crust&quot; atmosphere of the restaurant and bar.</p>

		<description><![CDATA[Home away from...?]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Nestled on the McKenzie river in Springfield Oregon is a rather nice park. Lots of open fields, winding sidewalks flow through the hills,  tall trees, a shallow wide river that attracts lots of ducks, and lots of BUMS and WINOS.</p>
<p>As a result children enjoying an afternoon at the nearby play ground are not able to utilize the facilities most of the time because they are locked. On the few occasions, when one finds the door open the stench and smell are overwhelming. Unflushed toilets full of feces, Urine soaked concrete, empty 40oz. bottles scattered around and if your lucky you may actually meet one of the many &quot;bathroom attendants&quot; that call the stall &quot;home&quot;. After being asked for spare change (apparently  the attendant wants a tip) or extra smokes you may find yourself taking your child behind a tree for relief and wishing this was a day the bathroom was locked.</p>
