Certain areas need looking at!

Although good facilities I'm shocked at the lack respect certain areas are given!
kids running riot in the gym! Teen-agers using the gym as a social/posing gathering area, unsupervised, sitting on equipment they're not using!
People walking in dirty shoes to the poolside!
Prams/pushchairs leaving the floor filthy in changing area which is never mopped up.
Having to queue for a shower!
