GOOD:
Good public restroom at Gros supermarket--downstairs and 
take a right.  The "M" is for men, the "X" with a line through it is for
 women.
Interlink has the best bathroom in KZ!
Interlingua also has a nice bathroom.  Watch out for the tricky lock.
Sakartvelo bathroom is also nice--toilet paper, soap AND paper towels!  Hat trick!
Bathroom
 at Umit (orphanage) is quite nice but no toilet paper or soap.  Also, 
the toilet doesn't flush properly so you have to fill a bucket 
(provided) and pour it into the toilet to 'flush'.
UPDATE--on my 2nd trip we ate at King David, a Jewish restaurant.  Excellent facilities!
SO-SO:
Bathroom
 at Sanprize restaurant has no light so they gave me a candle to use 
when I had to go.  It did have a toilet, soap and paper towel.  Hard to 
tell cleanliness in candlelight.
Surprisingly, the bathroom at one
 of the newest restaurants in town, City Center, is a squatty potty but 
is quite clean (porcelain fixtures but basically a hole in the ground.  
The odd thing here is that the women's part has two porcelain holes with
 no barrier between them.  Who wants to squat next to a friend, much 
less a perfect stranger????).  Still, usable and clean.  Kind of like if
 you were camping and had to go but there was porcelain available.
Bosfor
 also has unisex bathroom with squatty potties.  You go into the 
bathroom and there is a room with a pedestal sink with two doors just 
beyond.  Behind each door is a squatty potty (one per room, unlike City 
Center).
LL Restaurant is similar to Bosfor--unisex, everything in
 its own little room.  I think LL is more like a banquet hall--it is 
where we went for the big 50th birthday party.
UNVERIFIED:
Marmaris has squatty potty, not sure of cleanliness factor.
Cafe Istanbul has squatty potty, not sure of cleanliness factor.
All
 toilet paper is either one ply, brown and smooth or thick, brown and 
crinkled (like thick crepe paper).  So if you're picky, bring some from 
home.
