I wrote a couple of complains / suggestions on the yellow forms you can pick up at the entry . After you fill them you put them back in to an unlocked black box. Nobody answered my complains . So I will try again here.
First impression, or when you come once- twice a year, is pretty good.
Nice " sunny ways" . You come daily last 5 years, you see things a bit more personal.
Man's showers / change room : apart of a generic poster from City of ottawa, there are no signs/ instructions that you should properly clean yourself before entering the public pool. So not many people bother. Pethaps a couple of seconds just to get wet. Of nothing. Concequently the pool water becomes dirty and requires more chlorine . I woud say that about 1/2 of swimmers do not bother at all. People probably assume that they will clean themselves in the pool somehow . Completely different approach everybody has AFTER the swimming. Everybody spends quite some time to clean himself with soap and shampoo. Not a single person goes to change room without it. Speaking of showers, there is missing soap in the dispensers quite often. One of the 2 fans does not work now for about 1/2 years.
Swimming pool : I assume there are cleaning contractors probably evenings / nights after pool closed to public . They do not do a good job. Pool floor is often dirty, especially at corners. You can find the same piece of " lost" bandage 2 days in a row. There is a greasy/ dirty strip just above the water level daily. People are allowed to walk to pool area with their outdoor boots/ shoes. All this contributes to the main problem, as mentioned above, the water is not clean.
There is no thermometer showing air/ water temperature .
And Yes, I travel a lot and swim where possible .
My conclusion: facility is pretty good , management not that much.
Hope i helped
