The gym is a smaller, cozy gym. The machines can do some updating but in general I've never seen it packed and that's great for the average gym goer. Unfortunately, the hours are not fantastic being that they close by 8PM on weekdays. As a result, it's been difficult getting to the gym because of the time I get off from work. Frankly, I haven't been able to go at all because of it. The weekend hours are also fairly limited as well. If hours aren't a concern to you, I'd recommend taking a look.
