Hmm, you must have been super, super unlucky.

I can't say that I have ever seen a disgusting looking lotion bottle in the toilets and neither were they dirty or very bad smelling on SQ (unless you just happen to go immediately after someone who you know ... stunk up the place ).

Actually, in my experience the toilets on SQ flights are some of the best maintained and well kept ones on most international carriers. I commend the SQ crews for that as some passengers are really plain "gross" in what they do in there .

Service overall I'm also fine with. Yes maybe not as special and stellar as 7-10 years ago, but usually consistently good. Other carriers have caught up though and of course for the (often) premium prices SQ charges expectations do increase vastly.

YMMV.
