During the summer it is filled with kid, but they do have times for lap swimming, just look at their website site. It is always clean, the lifeguards are super nice.

First off, private interest can hire out lanes at any time and they deduct those lanes from paying customers. Second, if your a tax paying resident and a student you get the cheapest rate, but some of the staff (Dave) take it upon themselves to dictate rules and limit you on how many you can buy (like a Nazi). Lockers and locker rooms are near disgusting. Amazing how a city that has 1-bedroom apartments that rent for $6,000 can't make a nicer facility.

My husband and I were calling to him that our son was, um, drowning, and he did not react. When I realized he wasn't going to do anything, I ran over and pulled my son's face out of the water. Gio then picked him up and set him on his feet and moved away. He did absolutely nothing to console or comfort our crying child. He, instead, said "if you're not ready for this class, you shouldn't be here." If you are unable to ensure the safety of children or even show them empathy, you should not be working with them in any capacity, Gio.

Large lap pool with flag markers on both ends. I was using goggles and was able to see that the pool was very clean. Lifeguards and other employees walking around watching what is going on. Some people were getting swim lessons. The lap swimmers I talked with were for the most part nice and into swimming. All the many lanes were were busy this Sunday and you shared them with 2 or 3 other swimmers. Shallow lanes are 3.5 feet and deep water lanes are 11 feet and have a diving board. Parking is free and easy a few steps from the entrance. It costs $1.00 for over 60 and $4.00 for under 60. Cash only. Negatives: The men's locker room and showers are acceptable, clean, but not nice. I brought my own lock and locked up my stuff in the locker. The shower was a bit too hot and you can't change the temps--it's set. I was told that some homeless come here just to take showers but they have to pay to get in like everyone--they just don't swim. There was one homeless guy with a couple of carry-on suitcases in the locker room getting dressed after his shower--didn't really bother anyone. I stopped in here a couple of weeks ago during the week just to look at the pool first in business attire. The woman at the front desk was very "snippy" and would not let me in to just look at the facilities for 5 minutes--kept asserting that "no tours" of the pool facility are allowed! She said, "Just look at pictures of the pool on the wall in the lobby!" So I then just suggested how about I pay to use to pool and I tour myself about for a few minutes. She grabbed my money, didn't give me a ticket and called a guy over to keep a watch on me while I walked into the locker room and pool area. The guy was very nice and answered a lot of my questions. There were only 3 people in the pool--very empty. She did leave a "bad taste" in my mouth. I can see having an "attitude" if I came in looking grubby, but I was dressed up with a white shirt and dress pants and shoes.

The locker room is what you'd expect in a facility open to the public, but the pool itself, water quality, staff attitude and lifeguards are all first class. The pool water temperature and chlorine levels are nearly always right where they should be. At times when I've forgotten my goggles, I have completed my workout without great eye discomfort. Currently, October 2022, the pool is not open as many hours as it was prior to the pandemic. On Saturday and Sunday afternoons, the pool is divided in half with four lanes for laps swimmers ; the balance of the pool is reserved for recreational swimmers. There is a diving board for those that pass the swim test. Be sure to check the schedule before heading to the pool as swim lessons can intrude on lap swimming lanes. Children's and adult swim lessons are offered for a modest price, and the classes tend to be small. Most all of the staff wear face masks at all times. As of now, masks are not required for entry. The entry fee has varied over the years, but it has always been very affordable. Right now, 2022, seniors get in for one dollar.

I write this review with trepidation because I do not want this pool to become crowded, but I've…read morebeen searching for a good local pool and hope that this review can help others who are doing the same. This pool is located on the campus of Venice High School, and is open to the public during various hours (see website for details). Also, it is the only indoor pool in that area that I know of beside the one at the Santa Monica 24 hour fitness. The locker rooms, like any public pool, leave much to be desired, and are built like concrete bunkers. The walls and floor are all concrete, thus cold pools of water cover the entire floor and it is freezing in there, especially when you're wet. However one thing I liked was that rather than having actual lockers, there is an attendent behind a cage window that you hand your items to kind of like a coat check. They also have these mesh bags that you can use which hang on these metal poles they set up so that you don't have to put your stuff onto the wet bench or floor. Once you put everything in the bag you simply hand it to the attendant for you to get later. This way you don't have to cram everything into a little locker or worry about bringing your own lock. There are also lifeguards on duty and they have kickboards and poolbuoys available for use. The structure itself is also very well ventilated so though it gets colder than a smaller building, there is less of that strong chlorine smell. All of the attendants and lifeguards on duty are friendly and helpful. The crowd is mixed, though I would say it skews toward the older side. All in all, this is a great place if you're looking for a no frills swim. While you do have to suck it up while you're undressing/dressing before and after swimming if you're going during the colder months (and wet floors and benches are annoying), the pool is spacious and well kept. I also love that it's less than 2 miles from my apt.

I am currently taking a swimming class here in the evenings and the instructors are great! One thing to note: the class right before ours is little kids (6-7 yrs old), get there at the right time (10 minutes before your class) or the locker room will be filled with about 20 girls screaming and laughing and occupying your space. :) Walking in to the pool and walk straight into the locker room. There's a lifeguard at the desk, they can issue you a towel; I bring my own. The locker room: It's small, mostly assigned lockers, there are a few empty ones. I mainly just bring my bag out with me where I can keep an eye on it during class. There are about 3 bathroom stall, 3 shower stalls (no curtain) and no hair dryer nor large mirrors. If you come here before work, be prepared. There is a bathing suit dryer that's somewhat helpful. Theses are just things you find at a gym. Overall I really like this pool!

Tucked on the side of Kaufman (at one point, the "Women's Gym") on North Campus right by the Sunset/Westwood Plaza turnaround and Lot 4, North Pool is the older, smaller pool versus SAC or the other swim pools available to those with a UCLA Recreation membership, but it has it's own charm and group of regulars. Lots of sunshine, even in the winter months, and a lot more mellow than other open rec spots. Bring a towel; towel service is phasing out/almost gone at this point.
