Sherwood recreation center women's overnight shelter is the worst shelter in Washington DC the security guards they steal from you and the staff throw away your clothes you're not allowed 2 ride the elevator unless you're disabled they force you 2 walk up the steps 2 get your dinner and your breakfast they have no showers or a laundry room It's a nightmare I hope it gets shutdown permanently
Hypothermia, open cot shelter till April of this year. Meals, two am and pm, and shower facilities and open sleeping...many cots in gymnasium in use by others. Shuttle pick up am and pm...early rise, late checkin.
Just left the Sherwood recreation center. We just wanted to check it out to see the facilities since it’s a location for DPR summer camp. The lady at the front desk was rude and so unwelcoming. We did not feel welcome and left quickly after.
Filthy odor, they use it as a shelter during hypothermia, I sleep there sometimes; Trust me I have seen worst. The staff is pretty decent: Quite professional to residents on days, They offer housing services and secure check-in( those are the staff members{The Shelter Security}that are pretty rude upon check-in)} They feed Mediterranean style foods and cot style gymnasium bedding. The normal Usage which is a recreation center, is equipped with a medium sized gymnasium, an indoor exercise room, a party room with a full kitchen and 4 public restroom stalls.
This playground is great. Only reason for the 1 star is because the rec center itself had no toilet paper or paper towels in any stall when we took our 6 year old in to use the restroom. Very tense situation
I was staying in the Women's Shelter there (or at least I tried to) and had to leave in an ambulance twice on two consecutive nights because of the gas fumes coming thru the vents from Ben Nielsen's Automotive #nextdoor. I was having #seizures in there and #IT was an overall negative experience for me. Ion know what the center is like for activities. They really need to shut down that shelter operation there. The staff is ghetto, rude, and abusive, and the homeless people aren't being helped anyway.
This park is SOOOO COOL! Especially for kids of different ages. There’s multiple swings (although the baby swing is broken right now - if that doesn’t get fixed I’ll update this review accordingly), multiple play areas, outdoor musical instruments, and SO MANY SPOTS FOR CLIMBING especially for bigger kids. There’s a bug field with a walking path. We will definitely be visiting this park more often!
Nice facility with plenty of off street parking. Spacious and good programs for children practicing different sports. The children's park is well built and has a nice circular path for children to run or ride bicycles. Fun place and very convenient for those in the neighborhood.
