Summary of reviews related to the 'Indoor Pool' categoryThe indoor pool at Vila Gale Lagos has received a mixed reception from guests. On the positive side, several reviews highlight the pool as being beautiful, great and even fantastic with ample space and a nice overall pool area. Free access to the indoor pool is an appreciated amenity and some guests find it to be a nice option, particularly when the outdoor swimming pools are not usable.
However, there are notable issues consistently mentioned in the reviews. The pool was often described as cold with many guests finding the water too chilly and not heated to a comfortable temperature. Additionally, some visitors found the indoor pool area noisy and a few reviews pointed out that it was necessary to book access in advance and purchase or use swimming caps, which some guests found inconvenient.
The heated pool, while highlighted as beautiful, was also mentioned as being somewhat small and not effectively heated for some guests' preferences. Despite these concerns, the indoor pool remains a valued feature of the hotel, enjoyed by many for its aesthetics and the comfort it provides during cooler days or when the outdoor pool isn't an option.
