You want to read in a quiet place ? Don't come here. Most people use it as a park. Parent don't play their role and they barely speak English. Children's scream all over and run everywhere. I haven't seen a single human reading a book in that library. The good old days are gone..
Love the library, work spaces, cafe and the gym. The people are absolutely lovely and it is a great place to get things done.
The swimming pool is an absolute nightmare. I’ve never been to such a dirty swimming pool. It’s overcrowded with women just standing and not swimming, you cannot do laps in this pool as a lot of people just mess around. Everytime I swam I could see chunks of brown substance floating around, hair everywhere as most of the women in the session did not wear a swim cap, and other unusual substances in the pool, it looks like it’s not cleaned enough. I’ve been here two times and both times the pool has been dirty despite me telling staff as such, it looks like it isn’t cleaned often. You also feel out of place and uninvited if your not a part of the community who attend often. The changing rooms are filthy, not a single cubicle is clean, I didn’t even go near the showers so can’t comment on that. I will not be going here again I hope the team can encourage regularly cleaning of the pool and for users to wear swim caps and respect pool clothing rules.
Unfortunately, me and my girlfriend had an uncomfortable experience at Zest's swimming pool today. It doesn't feel like a welcoming place if you're not part of a certain religious group. We were stared at the whole time by the other customers. We experienced homophobic comments from other women in the pool for simply being two women with short hair. We left our swim session early as a result, wasting our money. This feels harsh as it's not necessarily the fault of Zest themselves how their customers behave. But I advise that you should avoid if you're LGBT. The pool was also extremely busy and unsuitable for actual swimming. It was full of people socialising or just splashing about, blocking room those who were trying to swim. This was a 16+ only session, so it wasn't even kids playing. The changing room is also very cramped and difficult to navigate when busy. The whole place doesn't feel clean either. It's a shame that my local pool doesn't feel welcoming to me.
Fantastic place to be in! Looks small on the outside but perfect planning/space management on the inside. Maybe an extractor is needed in the cafeteria area as it can be too smell clustered sometimes but other than that? Fantastic. I also love that it has women only gym, and the equipment in there are fab! Specifically targets areas we ladies might need help toning.
