Emma MacDowell, 37, from the Kinmylies area, was shocked to find “three bits of poo” in the sink of the disabled toilet at The Range, at Inverness Retail Park, on March 29.
She told The P&J: “Honestly, it was horrendous – Imagine realising there’s poo on the handwash.
“Luckily, I always carry a wee bottle of hand sanitiser with me.”
Emma revealed this was not the first unpleasant experience she had had in the store’s toilet.
She said: “The disabled loo always has a strong smell of ammonia.
“There were also what looked like rollies on the floor.”
The 37-year-old explained that she flagged the issue to two employees at the customer service desk, who apologised to her.
She added that she went back to the toilet an hour and a half later, but the door was locked and had an out-of-order sign on it.
