As part of Liverpool Council's Lifestyles range of sports centres and gyms, you can see the money…read moreand effort that has been put into this place to bring it into the 21st Century and make it an integral part of the community. The centre has been here for nearly 30 years and was greatly underused except for the many football parties I went to as a kid! Now the gyms are kitted out with state of the art gear, there are regular fitness classes for all levels in the sports hall, two decent sized astro-turfs can be found at the front - and if they are not being used by the local kids they seem to attract a lot of 5-a-side - and a good size pool with sauna and steam room. I can't really knock the place because it is well cheap and is obviously doing a very good job at placing itself at the heart of the Garston community, however, this also measn that the place can be very busy at peak times and it is often very hard to judge when it will not be full of kids! The pool always seems to have school groups or out of hours swimming clubs. While this commendable they also seem to find their way into the gym and will often hang around - or off - much of the equipment! But there is a waterslide!

Wrexham Waterworld has a lot of facilities packed into a relatively small building…read more It has one main pool, a 'baby' pool, and a toddler/younger pool. The swimming area also consists of a viewers seating area, a slide, and a 'rapids' area. Swimming lessons are also available, as well as options such as 'ladies only' night. Waterworld also has a fully-equipped gym with changing rooms and showering facilities. The gym currently uses the TechnoGym products, and all are in great condition. The gym isn't huge, but caters for everybody, and all staff are helpful and friendly. There is also a studio where exercise classes take place. Classes are very varied, from yoga to dance, and all instructors are friendly and helpful. Something to suit all tastes. When not exercising, Waterworld also have a cafe just inside at the reception area. This is a great local facility, and if the changing rooms were a little more loved, updated, cleaner, and tidier, I would have no hesitation to give Waterworld 5 out of 5.

Good to have - but not for me…read more I used to go swimming here on a regular basis. I went to the early bird sessions. I used to go to the sauna on Tuesday nights, too. Mmmmh - how can I say..mmmh, how can I put it!? The changing rooms are a bit dirty to what my standard is concerned - but to get the exercise I turned a blind eye towards it. The young staff was always very busy and hard-working. They need the job / they need the money. For the hairdryer you had to pay extra which I did not like. The lockers were often broken. Mmmh! Sometimes I was in my bathing costume - all I wanted was locking my clothes when I found the door would not lock. mmmh! The showers were okay. In winter sometimes a bit too hot - difficult to regulate the heat, I think. Mmmmh! The sauna - mmh. It was a bit too dry - the heat. The wood was black because people would not sit on their towels like they do elsewhere. Also, I do not like to go to a sauna dressed. No cold water basin or cold pool after the sauna really. Mmmh. I do not like it there. No Aufguss either. The fitness studio - gym - too dark; the equipment is not the latest; tried to get an induction course a couple of time. It never took place. One time a roof had collapsed or a whole because of all the rain. Mmmmmmh! I love fitness, exercising, the gym and I think it is important to keep fit - but the offer is not great here. So I use the Thera band, pezzi ball, bicycle at home. Much better for me.

Its nice that there is so much shallow water that allows her to continue her belief that 'I can swim by myself' There is an abundance of floats and toys (watering cans etc) both in and around the pool. Great slides for all ages but safe if you have a 2 year old that thinks they can rule the world. I wouldn't recommend this pool if you are keeping fit because it was inundated with kids and no lap lane. The changing rooms are pretty poor though, no individual showers and the family areas weren't clean. If you can look past this and have a good wash at home it's a great place. I wasn't aware that the swimming is in sessions which I guess may only be during peak periods but the timing was just right for us and made it easier to persuade little one to get out.

I was doing some amazing backstrokes down the middle of the pool when I bumped into something hard and sticky. It was a turd, floating along the surface of the water. I screamed, 'help! I'm being attacked by a turd!' I tried to swim away but it kept following me. In shock and panic, I began to lose balance and started to drown. I pleaded for someone to help me but I caught sight of the lifeguards, smoking and playing cards on their highchairs while laughing. I passed out. When I woke up I found myself naked in the carpark outside in the middle of the night alone. I'm giving one star for the turd in the pool. Hygiene has gone out of the window with this place.
