From the reviews
This is a pretty good climbing gym! My standards are pretty high because I come from the touchstone climbing gym family. I was a member of Cliffs of ID in Los Angeles, and the amenities there were quite a bit better than average. That being said my standards are really high.
I love going to Hangar 18 and climbing the walls. Been coming here for over 15 years and I never have a bad thing to say. The instructional classes for beginners are really fun and informative without being overwhelming. I feel safe with the autobelay and have made some good friends while climbing here.
It's a fairly small gym which gets very hot in the summer, but the staff are friendly and there is a nice diversity of routes available for the size of the place. The gym upstairs has a power rack, which is useful. The kilter board makes one question their choices. The membership is nice.
Scheduled for an auto-belay intro class with my partner as total beginners. Such an enjoyable experience! Definitely because we were the only ones in the gym (middle of the day on a monday) and had an enthusiastic and knowledgeable instructor, Irene. She made it a more comfortable and fun time!
