About Columbus Aquatics Center
That Columbus Aquatics Center keeps really long hours during the week, I've noticed. Most public pools don't open until 5 AM on weekdays, so that's pretty good if you're an early bird. You can swim right up until 9 PM, too. Weekends are shorter, 8 AM to 4 PM on Saturday and just a couple hours Sunday morning. It's a public pool in Columbus, Ohio, and it seems to be well-regarded, holding a 4.4 rating from 276 reviews. That's a solid score for a city pool, in my experience. Columbus is a big city, almost a million people, so having a reliable public option like this is a real plus for residents looking for a swim.
