Normally this is my favourite place to enjoy with kids or do sports myself (especially swimming in the "a bit" cool water of the big pool, perfect temperature in my opinion!).

There are often groups (especially young boys, but could ...

Overall it's a good gym, but there are some attention points. It's quite expensive for the amount of issues. The public wellness is overcrowded and if the guys are not talking incredibly loud in the saunas, they are staring like there ain't no tomorrow. It's very uncomfortable for a woman to relax here and all the talking is making it even worse. The classes in the gym are not very well divided....
