I've been here on several different occasions…read more I came here about 5 years ago to take my first swimming lesson over be summer. The price of the classes was reasonable & the instructor was great! Recently, I brought my 7 month old son for a group swim class (parent and child). The cost, again, reasonable ($45 for the week with 5 half hour classes included). The instructor was amazing! Happy and interactive. We did songs and free one playing with toys as well as skills such as getting in and out of the pool ("jumping in" and holding the side of pool and gettin out). The facilities themselves are amazing--Olympic sized pool, hot tub, small pool for kids where you can wade in to get them acclimated, etc. I dock a star because I still am upset about he cost of parking here. It's too much! $3 if you pay at machine and if you pay on app $3.35. Sure, you can buy a permit or drive around aimlessly trying to find a street spot, but it's kinda crazy (especially during college session!) But overall, the place is great and I will be back!

No street parking in all neighborhood on weekdays, permit required unless you go on weekends (no permit required on Saturdays and Sundays). I like that they have a tiny little spin drier for swimsuits in locker room, also SiriusXM music playing in all facility and vending machines available at the pool... I'd easily put 5 stars if they offer free parking for their visitors. The pay parking is actually going to limit my visits to them to weekends.

AZTEC RECREATION CENTER @ SDSU…read more This gym is available for all San Diego State University students and those who are interested in purchasing the membership. I definitely have enjoyed coming to this gym for the past 3 years as a student. I really like how big the gym is, it has two floors, and they also have areas where you can lift and also join to do classes. The one thing I dislike and lost a star was that it can get VERY overpacked, and that they don't have enough machines for this. There is way too much people waiting on the one machine they have, valley enough treadmills for the amount of students that attend this school. They always run out of paper towels especially when it gets done to the evening crowd. I'd definitely recommend attending an evening time for the gym

The facility upgrades are fantastic, but it's sad that the facilities are no long open 24 hours! I assume it's to allow staff to deep clean the place? There are two main gripes I have about the ARC: 1. The students need to learn how to rerack their dang weights. 2. On weekend nights sometimes the walkways are cluttered with hot dog stands -- including in the bike path near the arena and the ramp to the gym. I don't remember that being an issue pre-COVID. I bike to the ARC to avoid parking, but having to navigate my bike around hot dog carts in a thoroughfare is annoying.

After check-in we made a b-line to the basketball court. There was only one more person there when we arrived, which was nice. There are a total of 6 hoops. We took one. It was clean. Fans/AC was going, which was helpful when we broke a sweat. About 30 minutes in, I needed to refill my water bottle and use the restroom. It was nice there was a water faucet at the water fountain to refill my water bottle. Bathroom need attending as there were no more toilet seat covers in the ladies room. Once I returned, the court was getting packed. We had to share our hoop, so it was time to go. At a glance there are a vast variety of equipment. They were all being utilized.

Sophia has been at the front desk for years and she is smiles and kind. My complaint would be that the bathrooms on the weekends are unacceptable. Apparently there is no female housekeeper on the weekend is what a staff member told me. Hair in the showers and dirty. Some of the bathrooms had no toilet paper and paper on floor. Paper towels on ground and dirty paper towels on counters. There was no females on staff on the particular Saturday I went and so no employee could go in there and take care of bathrooms and showers. It is so important to have at least one female to take care of shower and restroom Issues.

Here is why you hire Pool Scrubs:…read more I got a call from my tenant on Tuesday letting me know that a hose was left in the pool while she was at work and it flooded the street below and the neighbors had to come over to shut off the main water valve. Whoops? The instant thought was that the pool company came over, cleaned the pool, filled the pool, and forgot to turn off the water... a rational thought, right? Well, yes, it is. The fact of the matter is that while rational, it's the furthest thing from the truth and Pool Scrubs has receipts! Yes, I do like to see the "we cleaned your pool today" email that comes with a picture attached but never did I think that it would be used to solve a mystery. You see, that picture that was timestamped showed exactly when Pool Scrubs (Justin) was there and that they were not the culprit that caused the great flood of 2024. It showed when they were there, that there was no hose in the pool, and that it was certainly someone else deserving of the blame. Thanks to you Justin and Christine for helping me to piece this all together... you do awesome biz for your customers!

In answer to Pool Scrubs review response- Eucalyptus…read more"Grove"? Running the pump only 2-3 hours daily? Constant complaints about the new vacuum not cleaning the steps that you did not recommend? Air B&B hosting? Only 8 years of service, and Jeff last serviced our pool in 2017, eight years ago? Discontinued my service professionally? You must be thinking of another customer, because NONE of that applies to me. There's a SINGLE eucalyptus tree beyond my back fence owned by the neighbor, that's been there since long before I even bought the house, or hired Jeff - and has been majorly trimmed by its owner, most recently in October. The last time I only ran the pump 3 hours a day was shortly after Jeff started servicing the pool many years ago (during whose tenure it was always beautiful). Granted he asked me to increase it to 4 in the winter and 6 in the summer, which I did, but it was always beautiful the whole time. I assumed the length of time changes had to do with the chemical test results. I've been running the pump 8am-3:45 or 4:00, as my electric bill proves, ever since I was asked to increase it to 8 hours after Jeff stopped coming. Which you've verified many times. I don't understand your failure to believe it runs 7.75 hours daily year-round especially since you've verified it yourself many times. Most recently just a few months ago your tech actually unlocked (using the gates code), opened, and walked into my garage without my permission to check it (and while I was home! Why wouldnt he knock on my door?! What if my pets had been loose in there??!!! What if I had been fumigating? Tons of reasons that was FAR from okay. My caregiver thought he was a burglar.) Every single time you've checked it's been set to 7.75 or 8 hours. The clock time gets out of sync with the actual time due to power outages occasionally (hence 3:45 instead of 4:00-when rates shoot skyward) but it has been set to run at Least 7.75 hours ever since I was first asked to increase it to 8 hours. The new vacuum was literally the exact same model as the old one, which was in fact the one Jeff recommended and installed when he reopened the pool all those years ago and worked well the whole time he did the pool. I wish I had tried to repair it before getting the new one though, would've saved me $$. The repeated steps complaint was because they were always filthy, I really didn't care whether your guy or the vacuum cleaned them I just didn't like how they always had algae on them. Now I'm told that algae is why the plaster is so badly chipped on the stairs, so apparently it was a very valid complaint (that yes, I did make every few weeks, because it never got addressed). It obviously wasn't often enough to get anything done about it though. And I have never been an Air B&B Host. Where on earth would you get that idea? The condition of my pool would've been too embarrassing to rent out the house anyway, lol. You call the way you discontinued my service professional? After all these years with you, an hour after charging my account/leaving my place, (leaving algae on the steps and wall as usual, and refusing to clean my filter as you had previously agreed to during that visit) I got a text that my pool was "too difficult" for you to maintain and you wouldn't be back. Literally no notice at all, no instructions for me how to care for it nor notes about when things had last been done. I paid you timely every month without fail, even when you couldn't get my pool clean for months at a time and even the times you didn't show up, and emailed us pictures of other peoples pools as proof of service. Given that kind of customer loyalty, I think basic professionalism would've warranted giving notice (a month would've been nice, but at least two weeks) and maybe some notes to your [disabled] customer before stopping service. But apparently I have a much more demanding view of professionalism than you do.

If you want a pebble tec product there are only two authorized installers and this company uses Sol Pacific. I liked that Don's quote was fairly priced and he didn't try to push anything I didn't need. The quote I got from Gardner was almost double and included a lot of unnecessary work. The crew mistakenly installed expired mastic around the edge of my pool and Trevor owned it and replaced it without me asking which I really appreciated. Overall I was not blown away with Don's customer service. In the planning process I was referred to one single website to pick the tile. I didn't particularly like any of their options and asked if there was another company they could refer me to and got something like "not really they all went out of business". Within 15 minutes of searching I found another pool tile company. I asked if he had heard of it and he said he could get those tiles as well. I was told all the samples would be brought before I left on vacation, but Don delivered the last sample after I left so I had pick my tile based on texted pictures so as to not hold up the project. Trevor went and purchased tile grout without asking me my color preference which I found very bizarre. They were willing to exchange it. I never got any materials showing the different pebble sheen colors so I picked my color from a brochure provided by another company. Trevor asked for the final payment the morning my finish was going in. I said the works not done yet. They said ok then just mail it. I said "aren't you going to come inspect the final product?" and got back we don't have problems with Sol Pacific. Ok great, but then why hire you if they are checking their own work and how about that mistake with the expired mastic that happened just last week? They did come back after I asked, but I was disappointed I had to ask. If you pay for their start up they would naturally come back, but I prefer my pool man to own the water and felt penalized for that.

Big shoutout and thank you to Matthew at Aquaguard Pool Fences! I shopped around with several pool…read morefence vendors, but I could tell pretty quickly that I'd be moving forward with Matthew. From the start, he was honest, transparent, and never once used high-pressure sales tactics (which I really appreciate). His quote came in fair compared to others I received, and he took the time to really understand our needs. We needed the fence as part of the process to become resource parents for San Diego County foster youth, and Matthew was incredibly thoughtful in helping us make sure everything aligned with CA code requirements. He even encouraged us to confirm details with our social worker and was flexible when we hit a small curveball with elevation changes from a nearby step. Installation day was seamless, about 4 hours for 136 feet of 5-foot fencing, and the finished product looks amazing (pictures don't lie!). He also went above and beyond by cleaning up the area, walking us through how everything works, and making sure we felt comfortable using the gate and removable sections. What really stood out was how easy and genuine he was to work with, it felt more like talking to a friend than a vendor. Plus, the lifetime warranty is a huge bonus and something we didn't see with other companies. I highly recommend Aquaguard and Matthew if you're looking for quality work, professionalism, and someone who truly cares about getting it right.
