Southwest Pool

I’ve gone with my family almost every Sunday before the COVID-19 pandemic started, and it’s the best pool I’ve been to. Staff are very helpful, the facility is clean, and everyone in the pool plays fair.

The staff at the reception area are soooo rood, especially one new women there, hates to ask the questions, has no patience at all and can’t wait when you’ll done. They have 4-5 great swimming trainers, but you have to be very lucky to have them, because they also have the trainers, they don’t know how to teach swim and the manager doesn’t care about. Also 8-9 kids in one class. So, don’t waist your time and money there.

For a city-run pool I think it serves the purpose. All sorts of programs for kids and adults. It's always very busy. Admission fees are reasonable. Seattle City employees seem to relish displaying a dour, snarky attitude when dealing with the public. This pool's employees seem no different in that regard. That said, the swimming instructors are super. Really great.

Very good for laps. Although it is an indoor pool, the air is not bad smelling. Women's locker room is clean, with some private changing areas. Pool is heated. The workout room is small but it seems to have the basic equipment. I needed a n elliptical machine and they had one. Everything seemed to work well.
