Living in Auckland, we've discovered these hot pools with a voucher from the supermarket. It's not the size we are used to in Europe, but you start to appreciate the warmth from the hot pools from the first minute you sit down in them.

Could do with a revamp. Looks a bit tired and some areas look a little grimy. The area where the hanging lockers were was a death trap as the floor was extremely slippery.
