I bought a Taro membership 3 months ago and I feel like I'm going to stop very soon. Every time visiting their gym or the pool it's a compromise for me because there are no other leisure centres nearby. Every time I go through the turnstile I'm not sure if the system counts my presence. So, I recently received a £4 fine for not attendance for a booked swimming session. But I showed up, swam and even scanned the QR code at the entrance which let me in. I needed to spend my time and give them a call so they should remove this fee. Finally they did it, but it was a hustle.nWhat's annoying is the open showers with a short timer, rusty equipment in the pool, constantly dirty water in the jacuzzi that whips up into a stable foam. Disgusting. The gym has very low ceilings which is unacceptable for the number of people per square metre. Limited number of weight training machines and they are all old, like from the last century. It would be nice to update the gym equipment. I really miss my beloved Horizon Leisure Centre in Havant, because for the same price everything was perfect there for me. Perhaps I will switch there again soon because Taro is stressful for me.
Where do I begin? The facilities are sadly exceptionally run down/dated which I can accept is a financial issue for the council, however there are other things that really could be improved despite this larger and more tricky issue. I am not a fan of the unisex changing rooms but that is personal preference. The changing rooms are also filthy which I see no excuse for frankly, plenty of staff swanning around doing sweet nothing when they could grab a mop and clean a floor! Sadly no rule on outside shoes either which really exacerbates this problem with the filthy floors in the changing rooms. The lockers are outdated, dirty and have keys that look like they have been there since 1996! On top of this they have a coin/token system to use lockers which is fine but they do not mention that anywhere on the site so annoying when you don't show up with one - thankfully the receptionist kindly lent me a token. The water quality is poor and you can feel it which is really a shame, and worst of all they overbook! Meaning a super off peak lane swim on a Wednesday at 2pm was absolutely slammed and simply put not enjoyable as a result. The water is also really shallow even for the ;lane swimming and I would say it is at best an OK place to splash with a kid if you don't mind the filth and a probable ear infection and god knows what else. The showers are also all open which is not uncommon sadly, again filthy, and with terrible water pressure and very short timers so no way encourage or enable anyone to take a proper shower after swimming. Also no rules on showering before entering the pool, which again is annoyingly common in the UK, but really needs to change in my opinion! A real shame as it is the only indoor public pool for quite some miles around and I think the town deserves better. I hope it will change for the better in coming years with some funding and in the meantime it would not hurt the staff to clean the floors regularly, clean the facilities more in general eg: inside lockers, changing rooms, toilets, etc impose a no outside shoes rule, put a notice up on the website to bring a coin/token for lockers and stop overbooking the lane swims!
The swimming lessons for the children are great. Many different teachers all have been great. Katy, Izzy and Marie are the current favourites all of whom have been very professional and friendly. Well done
Very poor on every level. Dirty , old equipment at the gym. The stuff spends more time gossiping than looking after their clients. And the pool and health suit area is just disgusting.
Visited here today with my husband and step son and was so disappointed so please don’t waste your time!nnPool water was freezing and even after being in there for a while it didn’t get any better.nnAs you walked into the communal areas it smelt of urine and was so unpleasantnnThe vortex was not opened at the start of our session and was very slow, the slide was only opened about 40 mins into our session so my step son couldn’t make the most of it and then when that was opened the vortex was then closed offnnWent into the jacuzzi and the water was not the temp it should be and the jets were not working either.nnOverall very very poor from everyone active and won’t be coming here again as there are far better swimming facilities elsewhere
