The gym is busy, that's undeniable. The rock wall is only open during the week, no weekends, from 4-10. But the workers are nice. The pool has pretty restricted hours also, because Drexel S&D practices there. My partner and I try to workout outside if peak hours, but even at 7pm we can usually get a squat rack and do our lifts.

Very small pool. Only 6 lanes - roughly 4 feet wide and 25 feet long. It was impossible to do any kind of physical therapy workouts as the pool was packed with minimum 3 people per lane. The facility supervisor was unwilling to understand my situation when I requested a refund for the 3 month subscription I had bought. They suggested doing said physical therapy workouts "by the pool side"?? even though said workouts are done in water. Bringing up covid concerns, they advised me to wear a mask even though my concerns were about the fact that the pool was packed with minimum 3 people per lane. I bought this subscription for the sake of the pool, not because I wanted to stand by one when I do workouts. Waste of money. Horrible experience.

It is a good recreation center with most of the equipments newly installed. The facility is clean and has great Vibe. The front desk and floor staffs are really good too. There need to be more lockers. And sometime I felt there should be a clear instructions to not occupy an equipment forever while scrolling through mobile phones. Lol.

This a really great place to work out, have a good time playing games, swimming, sitting in the corridor. It has a really good lighting suitable for any kind of work. This is the Drexel's corridor and outdoor view from here. You have Wawa, 7 Eleven, Starbucks and many other options nearby to eat.

Bad customer service and bad communication. It made me fell they are the rule makers and you can only obey and follow. Don’t expect too much given the cheap price. Fair enough

I absolutely like this gym. It is so huge and has sufficient capacity to accommodate many people in a given time. But only thing is there’re many broken equipments- if those were taken care of faster I would literally give this gym a 5 stars. All security staffs are so warm; they welcome every time so warmly. Membership desk personnel are equally helpful and friendly. 4pm onwards generally there is a rush. Otherwise it’s moderately crowded. I recommend this gym.

Weight room is extremely busy. So choose the times wisely. They have a lot of rooms in different floors witch can be a bit confusing and a hassle to move from floor to floor to do different workouts. The equipment is are new and in good condition though

I am a Penn student with credits for two classes (“Program: Adult 1.0 & 2.0 Clinic Wednesday”): Every time I called to book a class, I was told it was fully booked and to try again later. Recently, I was informed I couldn’t use my credit due to a system change. No one mentioned the credit had an expiration date. The manager of the tennis center was very rude and hung up on me. Worst experience ever!

They often get number of checked out basketball wrong and deny to admit it, insisting it’s users’ responsibility to get back the exact ball they want.

Pros: - Organized and maintained equipment. Cons: - Weight room is too small for the number of patrons it serves. The size maybe was good when it was first established. There far more gym goers these days than a decade ago. About ten years ago, I used to go to the weight room any time of the day and can easily access the equipment want. Now, however, if I can't make it before 4pm, I don't even bother to go to the weight room. Management should consider their patron's demand and apply changes to the facility accordingly.

It's great, but it could be bigger and have more equipment for such a huge student population.

there's this big buff dude. when i do cardio he's there. when i go downstairs he's still there. he's always lurking. when i get anything from the vending machine he looks at me like he wants to spit at me. i think he lives here, be careful. he's also bald.

This gym has a pretty good set up. Classes are awesome and there is a lot of equipment to choose from. Only down side is the hours at certain times of the year because they run on a college timeline. It is also packed at certain times of the day. But early morning and mid lunch are great times to go!

Update: I have mentioned that currently IBC is the only gym at Temple that has both cardio and weight room, which I see as problematic for such a large university. Starting this semester, there were 4 instances during different times of day (morning, afternoon, evening), which I had to literally exit the building as it was, with no exaggeration, beyond crowded. Equipments (including limited benches, smith machine and DB) were too busy, especially in the weight room that they are very limited, so I didn't see any chance to use anything. Adding that to the danger of Covid spread in such a small room. The only good part about it is it's free for students and it's clean. I hope Temple would invest on building an additional gym...

Has everything I need, however certain equipment is broken for some time now, without any intentions of fixing it (just a yellow tape over them). Also the classes are held in the only excercise hall with mirrors (and quite often), leaving students little room to go elsewhere should they need mirrors, wooden floors, and a bit of space.
