   The gym is small. There is not enough equipment for weight training. Small space. But i am giving it 4 stars cause i live next to it, and it is convenient for me.

   I've witnessed staff making fun of and mocking the customers. It was so bad and obvious, I could not believe it, it made me very upset and I still think about it sometimes. Very disrespectful, those guys should be sacked.

   This place is a little heaven. Really lovley staff who cannot do enough for you & always professional. A superb 33m pool . I lane swim there most days and yes the building is from the 1930s & is showing its age but arent we all but it will be much missed by the many regulars who visit when the Aquatic Centre opens I can't recommend the place enough.

   I gave this place 5 stars and in 2 yrs, I’ve left and now it’s 1 stars. I work hard and pay my way so why pay for a low class service. This centre should join forces with Winson Green prison as the rules, staff behaviour is better suited to inmates using these services. Not everyday working people. Nasty place with poor staff.

   Joined up for adult swimming lessons around two month's ago. Your lessons are 30 minutes long. You have a total of 8 people being taught by a single instructor which I personally feel isn't enough time for instructors to concentrate on an individual. I have had three different instructors in 8 lessons. The instructors are great but having 8 people explain where they're at each time there's a change of instructor in a 30 minute lesson is time consuming and a waste of a lesson. I have had two lessons cancelled in the space of 3 week's. And because I have paid upfront they will not offer me a refund and will add on the missed classes at the end instead. That would be okay but I cannot attend them due to having surgery and that is beyond my control. A refund is possible only for those who have paid by direct debit only. Which is unfair to those who have paid upfront. I am extremely disappointed and feel let down by smethwick swimming centre. They really need to manage thing's better as this is way below a good standard. I hope that management at Smethwick swimming centre will be looking into this. A very unhappy customer.

   Historical building, apparently all sorts of famous people have played music here. It's quite run-down now but the pool is fine for swimming. It's a 33m pool, most of the lane swimming is just two lanes and then the rest of the pool is family swimming. They have a baby pool too which is used for aqua aerobics etc. Lots of options for classes, with dance studios and a gym. Staff are always friendly even if there's often a queue. There's disabled parking at the front of the building and then a larger car park at the back, with on street parking available at the back too.

   Could do with a link of paint here and there but the actual bath is large, probably 30 metres, and deep too. Shower temperature is self- controlled so you choose, lockers quite spacious. Staff very polite and helpful.

   Great little activity for your family. The staff was helpful and polite. Parking was easy.. There is parking at the front and back of the property. Relatively low cost especially for a family on a low budget. My only low point is that you couldn't enjoy the skylight because the roof really needs a good cleaning. A part from this my children had fun here and can't wait to return.
