I love working out here and using the pool. Well staffed, clean and incredible selection of equipment
College kids mostly. Hot tub. Guys serving off in the showers.
The pool was cold, and the hot tub was the same temperature. When we asked if they could turn it up they said NO because too many kids kept climbing in and out of it. They didn’t want to tell them they couldn’t wrestle in the hot tub! The whirl pool wasn’t turned on and again was told because little kids that couldn’t swim well kept going in without parents so they weren’t turning it on. We payed $12 each for 5 of us for day passes and ended up leaving after half an hour! Waste of time and money!
I love this place. I go here everyday and it’s a great vibe but the one problem I have is not being allowed to squat with just your socks. I have had injuries in the past caused by squatting in shoes. It’s really frustrating for people who come here everyday and know what they’re doing. That’s really the only complaint.
Nice pool temperature and sauna. *Update (20 Dec 2023)* Has power right now, with decent day pass price, a few free day lockers, warm showers, outlets in the bathrooms for hair dryers & such, & outlets in a couple other places that can charge devices, and free wifi.
