swimming
the gym is good , The pool is terribly organized. People come to swim, and the staff closes off half the pool. No one exercises in that half, and in the other half, there are five people per lane. And for a leisurely swim, there are nine people per lane. Reservations don't work. The website says 20 spots are available, but when you show up, they're all taken. The pool is very poorly organized.

We have passed your feedback to the Team at the Woolwich Waves Centre for review.
Warm Regards,

Nice and clean with a wide range of facilities and good knowledgeable fitness instructors. Greeted by concierge as I was standing in the queue. Only improvement needed is concierge needs to be booking guests in so they don't get charged non attendance fees when they attended their pre booked sessions.
