Reviews:
|
Not a leisure pool; good water quality, deep (deep water permit not required), but very cool, (25ºC?) - you feel cold once you stop. Can be very crowded (even on weekdays), so go very early or late. When crowded, the water is cloudy and smelly (uncrowded <= 3/ lane). No backstroke flags or time clocks. Swim caps required, paddles not allowed. Refurbished in 2006: Locker/shower area clean and bright. Pool area also much brighter. It felt warmer too. It wasn't crowded.
If you disagree with this review, click HERE. If we can fit your comments into this section, we will - "different strokes for different folks" is particularly applicable to the swimming community.
