Amazing place, But most importantly, amazing staff. Brezian deserves a raise as an educated young man that treats people with respect. Kudos to the hiring team for bringing people on board that care about the facility and the integrity. Will be coming back here regularly.

Beauty of a gym, graduated last sem so this gym has been my go to for four years. I will say some of these workers are absolutely entitled POS's but a great gym otherwise.-OliverJohn (O.J.)

If you are a student or employee at UNR you should most definitely get a membership. Lots of classes to partake in and lots of equipment as well. One doesn't feel crowded even on busy days

I love the classes they offer, it's kept clean and they have plenty of space. It's not open to the public

Ever since COVID the quality of staff and the facility has been very poor. I constantly catch staff staring at me, my girlfriend, and others. I am wearing a mask as per the rules and clean the equipment that I use. I dont understand what the problem is. I have asked about this many times and yet it still goes on. If you are a girl going to this gym, please be aware that there are men taking video of you squating and working out. I have seen this happen at least 3 times now. I have also brought this up many times, but nothing seems to change. Both my grilfriend and I have expressed to staff how uncomfortable it is to workout here. Overall, since COVID this gym is far more trouble than its worth. I wish I was not forced to pay for this.

Great gym, lots of equipment, though, as it is available to UNR's entire student body, it can get busy.
