Unterer Letten Swimming Pool — Attraction in Zurich

I usually love this place! Great for the kids and good food. However, on Sunday, I was very sad to meet a Bademeister, (I didn't get his name but he is of Indian descent I believe, I could be wrong, with a big beard) that destroyed my experience.
