    Clean pool and all the staff are very friendly. The cost to lap swim is very reasonable.

    Lots of kids during free swim- but it's great for going to water aerobics and they also have a good hot tub.

    This review is from August 2021…read more I've gone to this pool before COVID and it was so. crowded. Even though the pool is gigantic it felt like someone was swimming over and on me on every moment. Enter COVID. Now they have limited entry - with people able to go in for hour long sessions. It's great. I went for the noon session on a Tuesday. It takes about ten minutes to walk from the parking lot to the pool as a single adult - probably way longer if you have kids and a bunch of stuff. I got there at 11:30 and there were about ten people in front of me in an organized well marked line. Masks were required for entry until you got on the pool deck. The pool is split up into lap lanes and recreational swimming. The recreational swimming area is huge and spacious with the new people limitations. There are pool noodles, plus it is a salt water pool so a lot of buoyancy. It was extremely relaxing and one hour with not many people is actually quite a bit of time to be in a pool. It's right on the water - but note you can't see the water from in the pool but you can from the deck. And the stroll back is lovely too. All in all - a lovely time if you plan ahead and have the time!

    West Seattle Health club is great! My wife and I both have memberships and we enjoy this gym!…read more The staff are all very nice and friendly, including the personal trainers and instructors. I attend Monday evening water aerobics class and I always enjoy it! My personal trainer is Jason. He is phenomenal and really cares about his clients. I highly recommend either him or Zac S. if you are looking for a good personal trainer. The facilities are a mix of older equipment and newer equipment, but they do keep the areas clean. The building is a bit older, but it doesn't bother me. They also offer cryotherapy and massage. I will say that parking is a real pain. It can be so challenging finding parking, especially on weekday evenings. A massive headache! I wish they would address this and find solutions. It is a bit more expensive than some other gyms in the area, but you get a large selection of classes and services that you may not get at other area gyms. Otherwise, I highly recommend WSHC for your fitness needs. It's a great gym! Chauna and the entire management team are great and very responsive.

Can say without a doubt that West Seattle Health Club made the time in Seattle bearable. This is a family gym - and has the vibes to match. From the children learning to swim in the large pool area to the childcare and classes, this place really supports health for the entire family. The sauna is hot, and large enough to make sense, and the towel service provides a nice experience for individuals wishing to have a spa like beginning or end to their workout sessions. I will always be grateful to this club for its cheery vibes during the dark, Seattle winter days.

When I joined I was simply told what my ten passes got me access to and what it didn't and handed the schedule. My PT has required me to use both a hot tub and do laps and stretching to help heal my lower back and hip problems and prevent surgery. Rainier Beach was closest to my home that had both, and 6 passes in, I've always been waved through and been given two wristbands--one for hot tub, one for laps because PT orders--on Tuesday and Thursday evenings, only time I can come. Tonight they let me randomly know that they would be charging me two passes at a time if I needed this therapy routine--I would be double-charged from here on to treat my injury. I told them then since this was the only pool with the facilities I needed for healing, and couldn't use other Seattle centers, I would need a refund. The supervisor seemed very proud to let me know that I could talk to their management about it, but they probably won't give me one. No apologies, nothing that sounded like sorry for the miscommunication that was going to take more of your money than you signed up for and were informed of. Just the appearance of: yeah that's not gonna happen, like they were better than me. This was the final straw though, where, refund or not, I cannot go back. The first issue I had was my second time there ever, where a male swimmer I was sharing lanes with kept tapping me, getting too close and came up fast behind me and ran into my feet. It scared me, so I asked the lifeguard to reinforce rules. She made an excuse for him when he wouldn't listen. This was not a teen swimming; he was about 6'5. So instead of doing her job by reinforcing the rule, the lifeguard said "there are lanes over there," for me to move instead of him. I didn't let it slide though, but then it just got worse while I was trying to stand up for myself. I went to other staff members and a supervisor. Next thing I knew they were all standing around in a circle, excluding me, in silence, like they hoped it would fizzle out. They just stood there, together, quietly, and the issue of my not feeling safe suddenly didn't seem to exist to them. I couldn't believe what this looked like from the staff, overall (maybe misogyny and group stonewalling...?). I confronted them again, this time saying I couldn't believe they were not tending to this. They seemed to finally realize this wasn't going to go away. So what did they do?: One of them went to the man and had HIM take care of it. They didn't enforce the rules, they went to him shrugging and forced me to talk to the man face to face, instead of enforcing personal boundaries I was asking for. He luckily was extremely apologetic, but he also didn't know what to do because-you guessed it- IT WASNT HIS JOB. It was THEIRS. His apology helped, but obviously I was so freaked out I needed to speak to the person in charge to let them know their staff didn't know how to handle these situations and how unsafe this was. And... it just got EVEN worse. This person in charge literally asked me to show him the rules posted by the pool like he had never seen them before. I READ THEM TO HIM. Folks, I was in so much shock, I think my IQ dropped that moment. I knew right then that as a single woman, maybe a woman in general, I was not safe there. And if I came back I would have to constantly be on edge. He kept gaslighting me and his argument was that the man had apologized and that a brush or an "accidental touch" was not a big deal. He also avoided any professional apologies himself. They had the swimmer do all the work for them. I've already been persevering every time I go back after that instance, always watching over my shoulder in case, but after tonight now they want extra money I don't have that was never explained nor before implemented- because of a routine I need for preventing surgery.. It's not a choice--I CANNOT go back. For dignity and a sense of safety. And offering another location is no excuse for this disrespect for folks who are just trying to take care of themselves. I'll miss it; it's beautiful~only reason not 1 star.
