Powered by GoogleI grew up in the salvation army when this location was located in dudley square. I am amazed at this new facility and the work it's done for the community.
Not a great facility for families (under 10 yrs old) looking for indoor options. Always an issue here. Pool closes often and randomly. Sign up for programming and don't hear back. This facility is best for adults who want to use the gym equipment.
It's a good community source. I went there and did a course in culinary arts and received my manager certificate. You can have interactions with different types of activities. Like a swimming gym, dance classes aerobic cycling zumba dance as well. And educational development programs for kids and adults.
Great customer service! The people at the front desk are so helpful and joyful! Im a tourist in USA and they are my only “social” interactions and they do brighten my days. It does a difference. The locker room is the cleanest I’ve seen. There’s a lot of machines and the cardio section is separated from the musculation which is good. There’s also functional water fountains (4). Also, there is a pool with nice attractions/slide for kids. This is an amazing sport center with a decent pricing. I recommend.
It's my 1st time here. My son came years ago and loved it. Upon arrival, everyone associated with the center was super friendly and wanted to be of help. Literally every single person I interacted with. The facility is big, bright and open, with tons to do everywhere you look... And who can resist a waterslide that starts inside, turns into an outdoor tunnel, then winds back inside and dumps you into a heated pool?? And did I mention the lazy river? We will definitely be back, and frequently.
