Pool at the Leppävaara Fressi Gym

So, I'm still out of nearby swimming pools and have looked into gyms with pools and saunas... a few days ago the visit to Forever Töölö was wonderful (link, alt. link). Today I went to the Fressi gym chain's Leppävaara site. They have a pretty extensive gym setup with group exercise rooms, exercise machines, and yes, even a sauna and a small pool. Friendly place and staff!

The pool was maybe 9 or 10 meters long, so not very long. And I didn't realize that the pool closes when the staff leaves, even if the whole facility is open for longer. Oh well, got to swim enough for this evening I think. 

Fressi has various deals for trying out their places and membership. I got a great deal from the friendly staff, got to go for free, got a loaner lock for the locker, guidance, etc. Nice! Thank you.

Entry to the facility above, the inside entry hall in the below picture. The pool is on the left below behind the glass and already covered for the night with :-)

The pool (Fressi's own picture):

The facility is located in south-east Leppävaara, on the Perkkaa area. This part of Leppävaara has a bit of a decaying 1980s empty office building vibes, but definitely easily accessible. Parking is possible for free on the next door parking house, Fressi has QR code to give three hour parking for free.
