We decided to try a day pass to see if we like it enough to get the monthly membership while we are…read morehere. It was our second time here. The first time we had a tour of the facilities: fitness/gym sauna, pool, etc. Most of the staff we spoke with were able to converse (somewhat) in German. Today we took our 10.5 month old to the kiddie pools and he loved it! (No, well, first he cried...then he loved it! ^^) We went on a Wednesday afternoon after his nap and it was not crowded at all. Plenty of space for people to swim laps, dive, or just play in the water. It's possible to swim outside (pass the vinyl curtains) but we did not try. In the corner, there is a water slide which non-swimmers like me can enjoy! The locker rooms area is co-ed with separate showers and locking stalls to change in. Next time we go we will be starting our monthly membership. This was partly decided after another employee (manager?) took us on a tour of the baby/children area, offered to have us leave our son there for a "test run" while we talked with the fitness people, was quick to translate anytime other employees spoke German to my husband, and was generally very happy to have us there. Glad there's such a nice place nearby. By the way, Americans should find that the water is not overly chlorinated or slimy ;)

If you are in the area and can spare an hour, it's a must-do experience. I do go whenever I can -…read moreso did my fellow photographer David Mecey. And yes, if I'd never been, I drive a 30+ min detour just to go (a must in my rating scheme for five stars).
