From the reviews
Really nice gym with all the cardio and weight equipment one would need. Also has a large dance studio, indoor track and basketball area. Convenient showers and towels are available and the staff are always friendly, knowledgeable, and wiping down equipment for ensured sanitation.
Was greeted by a super hot and muscular guy named Tanner. Awesome experience. Would totally return.
Pretty good equipment here. Best time to practice basketball in its gym is in the afternoon around 1-4. Full court games on all courts typically occur right after 4.
