Our take on this place:
Great and convenient. Self-contained.
Awesome wading pool with cool water features: sprinklers, slides, a large tub of water that fills up and spills down onto the pool.
Two lap pools (indoor and outdoor), and one pool dedicated for taller slides (for thrill seekers).
There are chairs and benches at the poolside, for folks who don't wish to swim, to sit and watch.
It has a mom and pop store that sells very affordable food (fried rice, fish balls, fish nuggets, etc), swimming floats/boards (if you forget to bring yours), water toys (e.g. water guns).
There is also a Mc Donald's and a 7-Eleven convenience store in the swim complex. For these, you'd have to exit the swimming premises (ask the staff who are stationed near the entrance for a 5-10 minute grace period for you to slip out and back in, so you won't have to pay another entrance fee).
Clean shower amenities. Kids have their own special shower area (separate from the adult shower rooms), equipped with individual kid-sized showers (no hot water though) with attached "dry" area to dress up. Low kid-sized doors too, so mom and dad can easily check on the kids (to make sure they're really cleaning up, instead of playing in the shower).
