Lots of options and classes to choose from for workouts. Friendly staff. Nice pool. It would be great if they added a hot tub.

Great gym! Parking options available with membership and a must if you don't live downtown. They have everything you could need.

Staff are nice but for the price tag, not really worth it if you are a self directed gym goer. There's a plethora of cardio equipment and raquetball courts, but the weight area is tucked away on the lower level and is dingy and full of rusty and broken equipment. There are nicer, cleaner gyms with equipment that is better kept for more reasonable prices all over Charleston. Additionally the hours are very limited so if you're a morning gym person and have to be to work next door at the hospital for an early morning shift , you're not going to have enough time for a hard or long workout.

Wow....the best fitness center! Lets start with the important stuff like....clean....and the equipment works. Moving on...the staff is fantastic. Janis Newton is the director and she runs a tight ship. The instructors are wonderful, inspiring and helpful. There are wight loss groups, hardcore boot camps...and classes with great music. The pool is huge...and often not very crowed. Some parking issues in the early morning. Buy a card for the rest of the day. Really the best of the best.

Nice facility, but recently raised rates from $61 to $76 -- BIG increase and no senior rates. I only use the gym and occasionally the pool. I don't participate in programs or use racket ball court, etc. Seems they should offer limited access rate. Why should I pay for programs I don't use.

Great place to work out. Cant find an ab machine here to save my life but other than that tons of equipment. This gym is only accessible to students and employees of the college. The staff were very friendly and it does get a little crowded but there's more than enough equipment for everyone. If you're a single there are lots of beautiful people that worked out here.
