Facility Notes
Facility Reviews
An excellent pool and mostly not so busy. Although the listing says the pool is only 25m long, I believe it is longer than that - it may be 30-33m long based on a very crude method of measurement.I don't know how bad the pool is during summer but in November and December it’s really easy to get a lane.
The pool is definitely 25 metres. The lane swimming did not appear to be managed (i.e., fast, medium, slow, etc.), but when I visited, there were more lanes than swimmers, so that was no problem. There was a separate area for learners. Check out the timetable on the web link to find when lap swimming is available (I got lucky). The pool facility is quite old, but has been refurbished and is in good repair, and the water quality appeared excellent. Showers were good (and hot). You should bring a small padlock if you want to lock up your possessions in the changing room. Alternatively, there are pegs at poolside that you can hang your valuables on to keep an eye on them. The staff were very welcoming - definitely a good find if swimming is your exercise and you're visiting Houston.
