From the reviews

Besf facility ! Best condition to work out! O love swimming and squash!! They have good place to exercise and very clean! Opening time and closing time is very nice for exercise. Climbing, running, and health programs are amazing. I usually go for Body Pump class, and it is awesome!! I love to shower in rec center!

★★★★★ — Lena, Mar 2022

Excellent facility. The rate now for non student is $15 and you have access to top of the line gym, pool, and indoor track. There also a rock wall and racket ball courts. Sometimes it can vibe very crowded with students and can be hard to find staff.

★★★★☆ — Jonathan, Sep 2021

One of the best features of the University from the two floors of weights and machines, 25 yard pool, hot tub, walk-in pool, whirlpool, rock climbing wall, equipment rental, basketball, squash, racketball courts, and childcare! I would strongly suggest getting a guest pass a few times to see if it’s right for you.
