    Good facilities but not the friendliest - fun pickleball group but staff often cuts hours for other things - love the egym however there is a sign in the room saying that staff gets to pick the music for their well being so bring headsets if you don’t like things like rap

    If you're there for the pool, cardio, or classes this place is AMAZING. Lots of equipment and its nice. If you are there to lift, NOT GREAT. Small weight room, I've never been there without having to wait for someone. Go to the City Heights Y and their weight room is literally 5x bigger.
