The soft play area is not too bad BUT pretty small and unfortunately not open space like other Better centres. Although it’s pretty clean I have to say that lots of small balls are broken. Would be great if area for not walking children …

Good morning, the comment about this gym is bad, starting with the lack of organization, every Saturday I went with my children to the pools where they did a test and received a wristband to use the entire pool, however the last Saturday …

Used better gym facility, good equipment not too busy at 10 am. Changing facilities fine, but showers could use some improvement water not draining water properly sometimes. Make sure to get qr code before leaving parking area. Parking is located next to tesco car park look for the signs.

Desperately in need of 1. Better training for the front desk staffs. To think outside the box, you can deal with your sticky issues and unsatisfied customer which mainly due to your incompetence, while you multitask as a gate keeper to let …

Great place with lots to offer but awful front desk staffs. Words to the staffs: if you hate your job, quit. Don’t stay and give bad customer service. Ever since Better taken over by Lambeth Active, the services has gone down hill.

Courts finally resurfaced. To be honest they are definitely repolished, they claimed to have laid a new floor, but I’ve played there for years to know it’s the same. The polish that they’ve done will only probably last a couple weeks and …

Painful SOP for children to attend every lesson, lining up at busy counters that’s dealing with all sort of matters, while those who had signed up for lessons waiting forever to just get in. Inefficiency at it’s worst, when we are on-going …

It was good center before but now it is getting worse and worse. Today (15/01/23), the water was cold in the swimming pool in the morning class. Teachers were arguing amongst themselves who will take the class. Kids were shivering and they turned off the showers. This is outrageous as kids could get severely ill.

I would leave 0 stars if I can. Paid for a student membership and uploaded my ID, then suspended my account saying no ID uploaded. No way for me to upload another ID, multiple email unanswered, phone unanswered, now still charge me for my membership!

They need to create a separate website for ice skating because the system they’ve got in place now isn’t working. Can’t get a booking or find any of the info I need. It just keeps prompting me to join and start a membership. They don’t …

Really enjoy the venue. Two minor niggles: I) front desk really slow to let you in, and ii) crack down by new management on wearing earphones.

An employee near closing time tried to direct me off of the ice, but didn’t realise I was a beginner so didn’t know how to brake quickly, so they knocked me over and I broke my nose.

I used the swimming pool yesterday for the first time, and was rather disappointed with it. It is underground, with no natural lighting, the changing cubicles have very narrow benches, almost impossible to sit on, and in the pool itself, Lane discipline is neither enforced nor observed. I find I prefer Clapham!

I played ice hockey there. Its really good, but the rental skates are not good and uncomfortable. I now have my own skates but i would recommend buying your own unless its a one time thing… Good rink, really nice.

Over crowded for lane swimming and lane direction etc is not enforced so they turn into a free for all or people stood chatting in the middle of the slow lane. Good facility poorly managed pool

It was ok I arrived 10 minutes and only had 40 mins as we had to pay for the skates at the desk, usually you could pay online. Prices are a bit more expensive.

Went and played ice hockey there on a Saturday evening. Parking was extortionate and wasn’t reduced even though it wasnt in the non peak time like described on the hourly rate. Just over 3 hours = £9.

Too pricey, I used to pay £18 for a whole family ice skating experience. Now I end up paying £35 for the only 3 of us. Overall, the experience was fun and I enjoyed it.

A great facility which has become run down. Filthy toilets, many staff disengaged, no enthusiasm to go above and beyond. Wouldn’t take much to bring it back up to the facility it once was.

Trying to find out basic details about ice skating sessions (e.g., what is an “ice patch” session?) is impossible on the website, and if you phone, nobody picks up. What a waste of time.

Outrageous price increases since the take over. They claim it is in line with inflation but some activities are 25% more expensive. This is a rip-off!

Streatham Leisure Centre which reopened in 2013 has an amazing 60 by 30 metre ice rink, 25 metre pool, gym and studios and offer all sorts of fitness classes. I really like it there. It is true that it can get a bit busy late afternoon at reception but I guess once you are signed up and have your card that won’t bother you.
