Website said there is racquetball!! My son and I were so excited to play but when we arrived the kid behind the desk said the website is not up to date and they don’t have racquetball anymore!!! I feel like you should either update your website or offer what you say you offer!!!! On a positive note, we had fun swimming!!

I give it 5 stars off the bat because it's the only recenter we have been to in iowa city that doesn't have a pool temp cold enough to give you pneumonia. The pool is warm. The atmosphere is decent and the prices are very reasonable.
