Very large place, three floors of so many many exercise equipment, indoor track, indoor pool, sauna in locker room. No wait to get on equipment. Clean, friendly staff.
Overall, this is a great facility. Typically very clean and ample equipment. It does get very crowded, though. They do seem a little slow to do repairs on equipment and things of that nature when something breaks.
Been going here for years, as I am a Senior here. Overall, the facility is great. Lots of equipment (although it is a bit dated) like with treadmills and lots of weights and weight machines. Also, the pool area is great: they have both a lap pool and a pool for kids to play in as well as an amazing sauna that can fit a lot of people so it usually won't get too crowded there. The one downside I have experienced here was during COVID: lots of employees had an attitude, and a very mean one at that. They would yell at me each time my mask slipped off my nose. Even if I wiped the sweat off my face and took my mask off they would yell at me. Honestly it's like these guys (and girls) never heard of being polite. Is it too hard to say "please" SMH.
It's very clean! I love the openness. I love that nobody bothers me while I focus on my workout! The staff is pleasant. And it's not just college students. There are people closer to my age as well, which is nice. Gearing up to try the lap pool and hot tub :)
I had no idea that the Kent Rec center hosted birthday parties. The party room was able to fit 15 to 20 people comfortably. The pool was nice and wame and had this small lazy river type of area that has a 6 person max. The kids just loved it. The restrooms were clean and did not have any trash on the floors and benches. In additional the hour of the party was really nice since the pool stays open until 7:30 that evening.
