    6 lane pool
    Hanh N.

    Friendly staff. Clean pools. Clean shower/locker rooms. $2 for residents. $3 for nonresidents. Been here several times for laps.

    First time swimming in well over a year what a great time!

    I come here now for lap swimming. They have a multi-use card (10 visits) which is $20 - I get the senior discount which makes it even more reasonable. They follow COVID guidelines strictly. The staff is always fully masked. They spray all the surfaces (Hand rails, ladders, bleachers) in between sessions. The Lap Swimming/ water walking days are M/W/F starting at noon and going to like 7p, and Saturday from 7a - like noon. They let you in on the hour, and you need to get out of the pool at 45/50 so they can sanitize and get ready for the next group. The changing rooms and showers are not currently available due to COVID - but the restrooms are open. You have to make reservations and space is very limited as they maintain 6-ft distance - so they only use every other lane at this time. It's a full size pool. The staff is very nice. Your reservation is for a specific lane and the welcome you into the pool area in lane assignment order with the larger numbers first. So you line up at your lane assignment pylon and are let in - one person at a time. They take your temperature and punch your card and you're in!

    Warm up pool. I was trying to get a picture with no people in it. There are two full-size pools as well.

    Nice place for an event, easy access from the 105 or 91 freeway. There is both an outdoor and indoor pool. The downside to the venue is there is no scoreboard or visual timing mechanism to see from the stands. There is also no a lot of available parking. Otherwise a nice place to go to a swim meet.

    Swimming lessons, great place friendly staff.

    Yelp moved stuff around on me. They removed this review which ended up on the Downey High School…read more.. This review is for the "Mommy/Daddy and Me Session #1" which was held at the Downey High School Aquatics Center. The class was Monday - Friday, July 6 - July 17, 2015 from 6:00 - 6:30 p.m. for a total of 10 sessions. Fees for residents were $55 per child and $59 for non-residents. That's basically $5.50 per class. Children were required to be older than 6-months-old but younger than 4-years-old to get in the class. To sign up, I had to enroll both of our daughters in person because their birth certificates had to be presented. This was fine since I didn't care to pay the convenience fee that applies to all online registrations. Class summary: "This class is designed to orient children to the water where they will begin to learn basic safety skills, breath control, floating, kicking and paddling. Parent or guardian must participate in the water with the child. Up to two adults per child permitted in the water." Additionally, the kiddos used life jackets, paddle boards, and squirting toys in the pool. We gathered in a circle and sang songs every once in a while. Let the kiddos sit on the wall above the pool and let them jump in "Humpty Dumpty-style." We also submerged our children's heads which I didn't think our own children would like, but they saw the older kids going (quickly) under water and did just fine. Our class started out with 15 babies/toddlers in the pool with as many or more parents. On the final day, not even half that many showed up. I think this was a bit disheartening for our instructor. Speaking of our instructor, Marissa, was great! She deserves 5 stars in her own right. She was attentive to our needs. Very courteous. Flexible - like when our youngest didn't like the life jacket she said it was fine to take it off and try something else. Nice young lady. What I liked most about Marissa, though, was she was aware of everyone in the pool around us - meaning the other classes and the kids who decided to run on the concrete just beyond the pool. Oh, and she was the only instructor who said anything to this kid who was climbing up the pole right where the canopies were. She gave a certificate of merit & a lollipop to each child after our final class. Stuff like that means all the world even to a 2-year-old. My family of four enjoyed the class. Any longer and our babies would not have handled it well. The half hour session was perfect. It was fairly chilly in the water on days that were a high of about 75 degrees Fahrenheit with a breeze. Otherwise when the temperature reached at least 90 it was nice. I'm not too privy on pool maintenance, but I don't believe it was heated. Also, I'm almost certain it is cleaned with a salt system. The reason for 3 stars is simple: The bathrooms and locker area were pretty disgusting most of the time. It's an outdoor facility, so I expected it to be mildly dirty with footprints and water splashed about. But most days the toilets were gross and the sinks and countertops were scattered with hair. Toilet paper was strung out & the bathroom stall trash cans were overflowing. Puddles of water were in various places and all along the tile where the walls met the floor. My husband said it was gross in the men's area too. I support my community no matter what, but I also know that City of Downey and Downey High Aquatics Center can do better than this. I've seen it done countless times at other places - much lesser towns than Downey. Parking can be a B to the i-t-c-h, but there's no need to drive like an ass over it - especially since high school students may be driving there too. This all being said, I would still recommend this class to parents and their children. Review #375 Yelp challenge 2015 56/100

    Nice outdoor swim facility part of the Downey High School proper. Across the street from City Hall…read moreand the police station, the location is freeway convenient for the casual amateur weekend swim meet family. Parking is a bit of a hike-- on weekends, there is free public parking behind the city hall and library area. Posted times are not in force on weekends and holidays. The swim meet tent city sets up in the lawn outside the swim stadium area, but it is fine. Salt water pool? Well isn't that nice.
