Express Review on Manchester Aquatics Centre

Adult swimming lessons are very expensive at DOUBLE the price of most other swimming baths.

There is NEVER full use of the pools, there is always at least one pool blocked off. It is blocked off all year round, despite any schedule posted on their website. They may boast having Manchester's only 50m pool, but it's pointless if you can't swim in it!!!

The problems don't end there: the chlorine levels are usually ABOVE the legal amount, so apart from breaking the law, it could be very dangerous, especially for small children. A huge dissapointment and certainly not all it's hyped up to be - in fact, you'd be better off going to ANY OTHER pool! Best to avoid this pool.
