The Drexel Rec centre offers a great experience with some amazing group lessons with skilled instructors and an overall equipped, well-maintained facility!!

Tons of machines, what you want will almost always be open, or will open up pretty quickly.

Has a swimming pool, gym, squash rooms,ping pong tables and a huge indoor basketball court..Pretty well equipped gym too. + Locker rooms which can be rented or one time use ones.
.. if you are a Drexel student you should not pass up the opportunity..

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.

Awesome facility. Just beware of rush hours.

Just a gym for Drexel students (and those with membership) - seems to have all your usual gym amenities. Also has an awesome squash court if you're into that

The place gets really busy and they kick people out 10 minutes before they are supposed to close, but the facilities are good and new.

Best gym in philly

June 12, 2018 03:58

The staff time how long you're in the bathroom, if you exceed 5 minutes they come banging hard on the door demanding that you exit. Its happened to me and it's ridiculous. Despite having found my happy place within the gym, the free weight section is far too small, many of the machines need maintenance and or replacement parts, they cant seem to keep the stair master running for longer than a few days, and the bathroom's/locker-rooms are not clean smelling. The irony is that the building is so grandiose from the outside, almost deceivingly. I would not pay to go here, and with Drexels budget, there is literally no excuse. The management is failing us and Im glad to be leaving.

Best gym in Philly.

This gym is OK. They are missing lots of common gym equipment. What's worse is that they charge the general public $50 per month, but when the students leave for holiday, they operate under reduced hours, as a result I have less than an hour to work out after I arrive from work due to them closing at 8pm on weekdays which is absurd. If they are going to charge $50 per month, and be open to the general public, they should NOT operate based on the student calendar. Will not be renewing my membership.

Plenty of cardio equipment/weights/group classes, generally very clean, can get very crowded. The student staff is hit or miss with how helpful they are with information or enforcing rules, and the membership desk is only available for a select amount of hours on weekdays only. Overall a good value for what's available.

Hands down the best gym in Philly. This gym has something for everyone at any fitness level. There is an indoor track, a basketball court, squash courts, indoor pool and tons of fitness machines including free weights. There are also fitness studios for classes and a rock climbing wall.
I've tried other gyms across the city, including a popular chain and the offerings just do not compare. I would recommend stopping by for a tour.

Its a really nice looking gym but there simply aren't enough bench racks and squat racks for the number of people that go here.

Best multi-facility gym in the city. Affordable and cheap

Excellent gym in terms of equipment. Understand that this place is pretty huge. Only problem being is that for its size there are far too few lockers (and the men's locker room is tiny for the number of people the gym can accommodate). To make matters worse, patrons can rent lockers in the already insufficiently small locker room, which further increases locker scarcity.

Frankly, this is a great gym in terms of facilities. Only problem is that if you can't change or find a locker to stash your stuff in... then none of that matters.

Cannot accept payments on weekends. No weekend membership service hours. Stopped at front desk and was told it was my responsibility to maintain an active membership when I have been permitted to enter for the last several weeks despite my membership being 'expired.' What do you expect when the place is run by a bunch of students?
