点评:I’m local to this pool - just across the park. As you arrive you see a very unkempt car park with a very rundown feel. When you walk in to the entrance and look down at the mat it probably hasn’t been vacuumed for 10 years. Everything inside is old and dusty. The vending machine is out of order.
There are two people at reception that somehow manage to avoid engaging with me even though I’m the only one coming in. Eventually they decide to ask me what I need. A ticket. £9.50 per person, other prices are available if you buy more (10,20).
The changing rooms are frankly a disgrace. I’m no whinger and I’ve got normal hygiene standards but this makes the local pub toilets look good. The lockers and dirty, there is mould on the ceiling. The floor is filthy and the whole place smells damp.
I get changed and go to have a shower. Between peeling paint, mould, dirty floor, and awful water pressure it’s like a school rugby changing room on a bad day.
The pool itself is the only redeeming feature. It’s reasonably cool (better for swimming) and there are plenty of lanes. A bit more management would be welcome - there were to lifeguards but I don’t think they did anything other than look at their phone. Some people in the swimming lane were just walking or standing up in the middle of a lap and others were charging up and down with flippers. Chaotic.
With so many staff and such high prices it is to be hoped that they spend a bit of time cleaning.
翻译:我住在这游泳池附近——就在公园对面。一到那儿,你就会看到一个非常破败、杂乱无章的停车场。走进入口,低头一看地垫,估计已经十年没吸过尘了。里面的东西又旧又脏。自动售货机也坏了。
前台有两个人,尽管只有我一个人进来,他们却都刻意回避和我说话。最后,他们终于问我需要什么。一张票。每人9.5英镑,如果买更多,价格会有所不同(10英镑、20英镑)。
更衣室简直糟糕透了。我不是个爱抱怨的人,我的卫生习惯也还不错,但这更让当地酒吧的厕所都显得干净整洁。储物柜很脏,天花板上长了霉。地板脏兮兮的,整个地方都散发着潮湿的气味。
我换好衣服,然后去冲了个澡。油漆剥落、霉菌滋生、地板脏兮兮的,水压又低,简直就像学校橄榄球队更衣室在糟糕的日子里一样。
泳池本身是唯一值得称道的地方。水温还算凉爽(更适合游泳),泳道也很多。如果管理能加强一些就更好了——虽然有两个救生员,但我觉得他们除了看手机什么都没做。有些泳道里的人在游着游着就走来走去,还有些人穿着脚蹼在水里横冲直撞。一片混乱。
员工这么多,价格又这么高,真希望他们能花点时间打扫卫生。
