Facility Notes
The pool is part of a larger sports club; the daily visitor rate gives access to the entire facility, which is open from 7 AM to 10:40 PM. The lockers now work using an electronic chip. [July, 2015]
When the Santagadea Sport organization took over this municipal facility in 2018, they added an offer to try one day for free by completing a form on their website at Prueba un Día Gratis. If you've taken a year or two of high school Spanish, it shouldn't be too much of a challenge for you, just remember that Nombre is first name, Apellidos is last or family name, and Escoge tu centro means "select your center" (from the drop-down list of centers managed by Santagadea Sport).
Facility Reviews
A swimming test is required at the pool, which is clean. OK circle swimming. The center is within walking distance of the cathedral and the old city, about the same distance from the old city as is Sato Sport. There are two three-star hotels within secven minutes walking distance on Alameda de Hercules, between the pool and the old city.
This is a fine pool and gym within walking distance to centro ciudad, the old city. The locker rooms are great. As noted, the lockers work with your electronic wrist band: Just hold the band to the lock when you push it in to lock; hold it to the lock again and it will unlock automatically. The pool is clean, maybe a tad warm, but very swimmable. We had two or three swimmers per lane, but everyone was good about waiting at the ends for faster swimmers to pass. The receptionist told us that the least crowded times are very early, like 7;30 AM, and mid-day, from 1 to 4, or so. Remember, swim caps for all, and shower shoes.
