Today I just went in to get some answers and see the place and that's exactly what I got. Friendly staff ready to help, great equipment, all is adapted to social distance and there are disinfection stations available at each studio. Will definitely be going back, but next time I'll be making use of it.

Whilst the facilities are good, communication is AWFUL at best. Emails don't come through when lessons are cancelled and whenever you call phone is hung up!

Nice pool but the problem is with changing room. There is a lot of naked people so I wouldn't recommend this place for parents with kids. This is disgusting that staff don't care about it!

I am concern about the steam room at WV Active Centrel, there is a smell of mould inside the steam room. Yes, I have used it three times, I had to use a bit of vicks to mass the small. But over the pass weeks am thinking, what is that moulding smell doing to my lungs breathing it in???. I have never been to a steam room that smells of mould!!!. Is it healthy to smell mould and in-hale it???

What a disgrace this company is to the Bilston community their lack of basic skills are really shining example of their ability to not be able to cope with basic care needed for such services. Don't pick up the phone for ages unless you continue to call them. Don't send out any type of email to confirm bookings so needed to call up a 2nd time to… confirm booking and time lessons would start
when we got there for the lesson Both names was not down correctly And they failed to give the correct times for my daughter's swimming lessons resulting in two very upset children.
shouldn't of wasted
