What people say

"Rude people and the hour of squash is only 45 minutes… we were kickes out very rudely by the staff in the middle of a point. When i asked the staff why, they said it lasts only 45 minutes. I saw other people complained about the same and answered from the social media team that is an hour. I used to come here because it was close to my house but now i will make the trip to the 15°arrondissement to play. Unacceptable."
