From the reviews
STUDENTS OF UTSA: We are charged around $250 a semester to utilize this rec and it's worth it. They offer kickboxing, yoga and other group classes as well as a pool/wet area. The Rec holds many different types of machines in the downstairs area as well as free weights.
Best gym in town in my opinion. You can pay on a monthly basis and there's no contract. The closure and reduced hours dates can be somewhat inconvenient but it can't be helped since the majority of the staff are students.
Great facility. They have an indoor track, various treadmills, group exercise classes, at least two free weight stations that I know of, a bunch of weight training machines, basketball court, volley ball, and I'm sure a ton of other things I don't even know about. The building is very large.
Fantastic recreation center for students. They just opened the pool back up as well, so that's a bonus. The gym has plenty of space for basketball, weightlifting, running, and they offer a variety of classes. My personal favorite are the free outdoor recreation equipment rentals.
