I've walked thru there before(gift shops too). Nice place but yes the lockers looked basic. They did have snuba cycles there at one point. Helmet snuba in shallow water for rookies. It was pricier than Scuba club Cozumel but has nice pools and volleyball etc. so more amentities. Can get other island excurisons from their lobby too which is handy.
