Facility Reviews
This is a fine pool with many idiosyncratic details. The pool is glazed tile with high ends offering no handholds, but a series of eyebolts are in place with a rope running through, so one can more or less hang on. Backstroke flags were in place. A swim cap ("gorra") is required. The pool self-reports a water temperature of 30ºC, but it was a lot closer to 28ºC, when I was there, and, although I accepted the turbidity of the water, others might object.
There are lockers, tiny cubes, some of which have no locks, and only a subset of these will accept your lock. Some locked lockers have old, rusty locks on them that have not been used for a very long time indeed. Bring your own soap and towel.
There is a much smaller pool there, whose use(s) I did not learn, as I never saw anyone in it. There are also a snack bar, coffee bar, and liquor bar in the waiting area.
People were friendly: a woman changed lanes, so I would have a lane to myself, when the lifeguard was explaining mandatory circle-swimming in shared lanes to me.
