From the reviews
The best recreation facility; Great environment, one of the best indoor air quality systems and a bunch of exercise machines and free weights which let you have the best experience of training in the gym.
besides having great sports facilities, IM building also offers various programs and student run clubs. they even provide a wide range of well equipped outdoor gear that you can rent. the staff are friendly and welcoming too, which makes the whole experience even better.
Walking into the IM Building is like hitting the "university life unlocked" level. Carpets? Nah, we're talking turf, climbing walls, basketball courts, racquetball, indoor track - this place is a full-on recreational playground. You feel that "I could stay here all day" energy. The IM Building isn't just a gym.
You can not get any better than IM when it comes to fitness! I don't want to take too much of your time listing all the amenities and options IM provides for your fitness needs but let's just say the sky is the limit.
