I go here every week for lane swimming and Body Pump classes. The pool is always clean and well-maintained, though it can get quite busy at times. Overall, it's a great facility with a pleasant atmosphere and excellent amenities

The reception team does not seem to take members' feedback or concerns seriously. Classes are scheduled back-to-back, leaving no time to cool down, stretch, or even pack away equipment before the next group enters the studio. It can be very disruptive when people arrive late and walk in during classes, especially cycling sessions, where the door should remain closed once the class has started. Some equipment is also missing or insufficient, and despite repeated feedback, no action appears to be taken. Overall, the facilities are good, but member concerns are not being addressed properl
