VERY POOR HYGIENE
I have been bringing my daughter to swimming lessons at Downham Leisure Centre for 3 years, making myself a regular visitor. However, the showers and changing rooms areas are consistently unclean; the facility emits a strong urine odour, and debris is frequently found on the floor. I have only witnessed staff members cleaning on a single occasion. The hygiene standards are severely lacking. There have been instances where a parent have removed their children after discovering a maggot in the shower area. I believe management must address these issues promptly. Notably, there have been times when the showers were out of service, yet the facility remained open to the public. The only reason I continue to bring my daughter there is for convenience; however, I am now considering withdrawing my children due to the unsanitary conditions.

Misleading "Day Pass" policy and unprofessional service
I am writing this to express my deep dissatisfaction with the service at Bicester Leisure Centre following an incident on March 8th, around 9:30 AM.
I visited the gym as a guest of a member. I was informed that I had to purchase a "day pass" for £12.50, which was processed by a staff member named Paula. At no point during this transaction was I informed of any terms and conditions, specifically regarding re-entry or facility limitations.
The experience was marked by a series of unprofessional interactions:
Misinformation: When asked what the pass included, Paula incorrectly stated it was for the "gym only." She was later corrected by her colleague, Tammy, who confirmed other facilities were included.
Restrictive Re-entry: After an hour, I had to leave for 20 minutes to drop my wife at work. I notified reception that I was returning shortly to finish my session with my friend. I was then told by Tammy that if I stepped out, I would be charged another £12.50 to re-enter.
Deceptive Naming: Calling a product a "day pass" while only allowing a single entry without prior notice is highly misleading.
The attitude of both Paula and Tammy was dismissive and unprofessional. I was forced to cut my workout short and leave my friend behind, feeling completely exploited by the lack of transparency. I strongly advise potential visitors to be wary of the hidden rules and the poor customer service at this facility.

Thank you for sharing your feedback regarding your visit to Bicester Leisure Centre on March 8th. I am very sorry to hear about the negative experience you had with our guest pass policy and the service provided by our team.
It is clear that the information provided regarding the inclusions of the pass and our re-entry policy was inconsistent and frustrating. We aim to be transparent with our pricing and terms, and I apologise that this was not your experience. I will be addressing your comments with Paula, Tammy, and the rest of the site management team to ensure our staff are fully trained on our "day pass" terms and that we are communicating with our guests more professionally.
To compensate for the frustration you experienced and to provide a better customer experience, I would like to offer you a complimentary 3-day pass.Please contact me directly at leisure.escalations@parkwood-leisure.co.uk so that I can arrange this for you.
I look forward to hearing from you. Sara
