Echo Park Pool 1419 Colton Street, Los Angeles, CA 90026

"Friendly staff, clean warm pool and staffed security for your belongings."

"Great pool for swimming laps year-round, and staff is always nice and helpful. I only wish it was open for more hours of the morning, not just 6am - 8am on weekdays."

"Very crowded and kids were intent on splashing and jumping in the pool everywhere even when asked to move away! Had an ok time. The changing room attendant on the women’s side was staring at me while I was changing my clothes and trying to get my kid together, then she had nerve to tell me to cover up, I had a towel on but I guess it was opened a little at the bottom, no one else was around and I told her to stop cuz she’s the only one looking! Stop watching when you shouldn’t be staring it’s rude and it makes people uncomfortable!"

"I really like coming to this pool for my kids lessons. They offer free and low cost classes and are open year round. Staff is nice and the pool is large and open year round. Unfortunately, the parking is small and there are a lot of homeless coming in to shower. There are signs stating no nudity, meaning you have to shower in your swim suit. People don't follow this rule, specifically on the men's side. My boys have told me that there are naked old men walking around. My husband confirmed this and has even confronted these men and pointed at the signs. Staff has been made aware but they don't enforce their no nudity rule. Also you have to walk through the locker rooms in order to get in. Wish there was an option to go around."

"Affordable, well lit lanes for lap swimming and separate areas for recreational swim. Attentive lifeguards. Fairly empty in the evening (fall and winter, haven’t tried during summer). Classes for swimming and surfing. - Free, limited parking - Shower available for $1 for non swimmers"
