Great camp this year at SDSU!! Really impressed with their facilities, great price to get in, and very well organized. Games were on time and refs were all good. Only downside is spectator seating, more chairs needed.

This is truly the best gym in the area. I’ve kept going even as an alumni because there’s currently nothing better. They have every equipment imaginable and it’s all pretty new. I do wish they had those floor pads on the squat racks or a dedicated floor pad for deadlifting. The stretch cage is much appreciated and the yoga mats are thick. It usually isn’t that busy around lunch time.

I would like to first thank Gracie(?) and Kylee(?) (Please forgive me if I misspelled your names…) There was an instance where someone (I am unsure whether or not they were even a student or a member of the gym), but he was shirtless for a considerable amount of time and I was very uncomfortable with his behavior. He was walking around the facility without a shirt and wasn’t wiping down the equipment after leaving plenty of sweat on them. I decided to let the employees know and they swiftly handled it and immediately came back to check on me and my friend. I didn’t feel ridiculed or patronized for letting them know and they helped make us feel safe at this facility. Thank you guys for the work you do!

It's always packed. Doesn't matter if it's midnight or 6am, the machine you want will always be taken. Students get charged automatically so everyone should go. I don't blame them. But for how many students go to this wacky school there should be like two arcs. I still go like every day tho, everything is clean and i can't complain too much.
