Learned how to swim here. Must have been 1969. I'm still a strong swimmer.

Came here for lap swimming while visiting in Berkeley. It's OK. Front desk person was pleasant and helpful. Locker room is a little cramped and showers were uncomfortable. There are small lockers to secure your valuables outside by the pool. It was kind of crowded when I was there, but people were considerate about sharing lanes and circling if necessary.

The pool facilities reminds me of being in a third world country- where the sanitation is lacking. It is in desperate need of a remodel. It has an unclean smell that doesn't go away and just a gross sense of surroundings. The pool is very small for laps. It's outside environment is pleasant. I prefer other locations to swim.

I usually play tennis next door. But this pool is very clean and a great outdoor pool to take your family. Be aware the courts known locally as Hopkins courts are closed for renovations at this time.

New management is terrible. She is frightened the kids and doesn't give any space to them to enjoy after practice. She has no idea how to deal with kids and doesn't know anything about swim team. Kids are afraid of her. This is community pool and management is terrible. City of berkeley should do something about it. Parents are not happy.
