We went for the Natural Stromgman tournament. All the staff were friendly and very helpful. They also had a nice cafe with a wide selection of fresh food. Great venue!

AVOID! It's not clean, staff are unfriendly and defensive when you complain. Just look at some of the dreadful responses to reviews on here!

Great sport complex and gym. It has a lot of training machines and weights/dumbbells, treadmills, etc. During the academic year, it could become very crowded in the mornings (before classes start) and after 5 pm (when classes end). Other issues are machines becoming out of order frequently and being repaired very slowly and not having some machines like chest fly, back fly or any decline benches.
