What are people saying (AI review summary)? This swimming facility is highly valued by the community, often described as a friendly and accessible option with great staff. Many appreciate the warm water temperature. However, significant complaints include the air temperature being excessively hot with poor ventilation, and staff sometimes restricting the opening of doors to alleviate this. Lap swim hours are limited, leading to overcrowding. Suggestions include transitioning to a part-saline system and improving ventilation. It's noted to be a meter pool, and users are advised to call in advance for pricing information.

We are so lucky to have this pulling Portsmouth and I'm so glad that they voted to keep it. It's a great option especially in the winter.
A friendly, accessible facility. I’ve been swimming here for 45 years! Would love to see a transition to part saline, as I have experienced in ymca pools.
I love this pool in particular because they keep the water and air at a nice, warm temp. I hate jumping into a freezing cold pool. One criticism is that they have very limited lap swim hours. They are probably understaffed because they pay so little. Therefore it's super crowded during the few hours they open for lap.
Great pool and great people. Staff was very friendly. The biggest complaint I have about this pool is the Heat. They need a better ventilation system. Staff won't let you open the doors so it makes it even more unbearable.
Great pool great staff. My big problem with this pool is the air temperature is way too hot. Even the kids in their swimsuits we're complaining how hot it was we actually had to open the doors. Not sure what they charge to actually swim there? I would call in advance. By the way it is a meter pool not a yard pool.
