COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. – On Thursday, Nov. 19, Cintas Corporation named the TikTok-famous restroom in Bancroft Park the winner of its 2020 America's Best Restroom® contest. As the winner, the City of Colorado Springs received a Cintas UltraClean® restroom cleaning service and $2,500 in Cintas products and services for restroom cleaning or facility management, as well as a spot in the America's Best Restroom Hall of Fame.
"As Olympic City USA, Colorado Springs is committed to the Olympic Values of excellence, friendship and respect, but make no mistake about it, we want to win any competition we find ourselves in," said Mayor John Suthers at the award ceremony. "With that competitive spirit in mind, as Mayor of Colorado Springs, and on behalf of the residents of our great city, I humbly accept the acclaim for being home to the best restroom in America for 2020. It is only fitting and proper that the city ranked by U.S. News and World Report as the most desirable place in America to live should be home to the most desirable restroom in America."

The self-cleaning restroom in Bancroft Park is a welcome amenity for residents and visitors who are seeking a clean park facility. It offers three restrooms, including an ADA-compliant option, and each comes with green, red and yellow lights to show availability. Soap, water, toilet paper and a dryer are all activated with the wave of a hand. The restrooms self-clean after every 30 uses, and a park maintenance supervisor is alerted via an app when toilet paper or other supplies are running low. The exterior is wrapped with historic photos and facts about the historic Old Colorado City neighborhood where it's located.
