Positive experience: Beautiful center!

jack cobb Published on Google 2 years ago

Negative experience: Loved the gym but the staff were just awful. Particularly the sports program coordinators, they did a terrible job of running the intramurals program - I had multiple complaints last term that went unaddressed and was completely disregarded by the staff who didn’t seem to care about anything my team or I said. Horrible staff

Positive experience: Nice spacious gymnasium to play basketball, nice squash courts, and a spacious turf where anyone can go workout. It's very close to the other parts of campus as well. Can't wait for the new developments coming within the next few years.

Fantastic experience: Loved it!

Eric Grosse Published on Google 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Had a tour today. Quite the facility. Modern with a good flow. Impressive.

Positive experience: Equipment is amazing, but the music choices are absolutely horrible, I want to rip my ears out, not only are some repetitive as hell and also sound like other songs, some songs I find disturbing due to their explicit lyrics. Most songs don't function as "exercise music" as well. Otherwise the equipment is great, been making a lot of progress using the puller, bikes, treadmills But for the love of god, can we get some more music variability, moderation, and filtration? Maybe introduce a vote system if you don't have one already.

Hi there, thank you for your feedback about the music. We are interested in discussing this with you further. If you are willing to provide more about your experience, please email Wes, our Facilities Coordinator, at [email protected].

Negative experience: Good gym with nice facilities but found that the sports programs for students were very poorly run and disorganized. Imo the staff running it were extremely unhelpful in resolving issues regarding intramurals and didnt care for student concerns

Negative experience: wouldnt give me my money back for a intramural bond deposit

Nicole Chan Published on Google 2 years ago

Positive experience: a good enough place to work out with your free student pass, but it's usually very busy and gets quite warm and sweaty-smelling upstairs. the facility (and climbing wall... it's pretty much a tiny corner - EDIT: now open during much more of the week, the instructors are super friendly, but it gets hella crowded lol) is smaller than it should be for the amount of students at laurier. the staff are always polite and helpful though! the pool water is (imo) kinda cold.

Wilfrid Laurier University Athletic Complex

Hi Nicole, thanks for taking the time to write a review! We wanted to let you know that to help accommodate increased interest, we have extended the climbing wall hours! You can see the hours of operation here: https://recreation.laurierathletics.com/sports/2021/6/30/86_132695382729867775.aspx

Arianna Augier Published on Google 2 years ago

Positive experience: Clean, orderly, polite staff, helpful posters/diagrams on machines for how to do certain workouts, lane swimming has slots you can book, and has fair rules for entry. The few dance classes I took were fun and educational. Sometimes, the website can be confusing to navigate for hours during special events, but the staff always clear up confusion when I go in person :))

B Y Published on Google 2 years ago

Negative experience: I didn't like the stage, nor the seats, nor the ceremony, everything was less than usual.

Angela Gu Published on Google 3 years ago

Positive experience: small stands

EA Published on Google 3 years ago

Omar Published on Google 3 years ago

Roger Molnar Published on Google 3 years ago

Positive experience: Went for a swim lesson with R.O.W. swim club

Tariq Asfour Published on Google 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: My kids university. I love it

Giuseppe Monaco Published on Google 3 years ago

Negative experience: The club has good machines, decent plate loaded compound lifts but the free weight area is a nightmare; not 1 dumbbell in its proper spot, random dumbbells all over the turf, missing weights and the bench’s themselves are cheap and out of date, bench seat is fixed so it’s far more risky to do heavy lifts like shoulder press because form will always be off . Furthermore the lockeroom is filthy, dirty socks on the floor, garbage and a musty smell, I really don’t think it’s cleaned more than once a day. In addition (not the clubs fault) this place is literally stuffed packed aside from super early morning. If your a casual gym user and a Laurier student then this gym will serve its purpose as a free gym. If your a rat then the $10 a month for crunch fitness will provide you with an infinitely more fulfilling gym experience.

Fantastic experience: great place to swim lanes for fitness. It can be busy so choose your swim times wisely, usually early in the morning is best.

Isabella Pascoe Published on Google 5 years ago

Fantastic experience: my home

B Shervin Published on Google 6 years ago

Negative experience: The facility looks good from the outside. However, the Men changing room is disappointing and even dangerous. You can feel bad odor everywhere.

Max Jakel Published on Google 8 years ago

Fantastic experience: Has twice as many benches as CIF

Vvv Ccc Published on Google 8 years ago

Positive experience: It's a great place to exercise or do intramurals, but if you have an exam here bring a sweater. It will be cold.

Emma Published on Google 8 years ago

Fantastic experience: Facility is really big and has great security. The gym is a very big and good place to train. The pool is also very nice and has a very good observation area.

Negative experience: Way to busy unless you get there before the crack of dawn! Facility is good otherwise.
