Facility Reviews
Rating: 7.5 on a scale of 10. Usually set as 25 yards but weekend afternoons (1 - 5 PM) are 50 meter time. Lightly used for lane swimming. Primitive change rooms. Lap lanes always available. Basic surroundings, but swimming conditions are perfect. For the hour I was there, there were a total of five people in the six 50m lanes set up, never more than two at a time, meanwhile, the other third of the pool was crammed with kids. It's in a neighborhood where gangs run free at night.
