My wife and I moved to Med Center area and were checking out the fitness club options nearby. We first went to 2-hr fitness at Rice Village to see the facility only to be met by a mean lady at the front desk. Since my wife is a UT employee, we went to the UT Rec Center. We were pleasantly surprised to have a entirely opposite experience there. Embry explained to us the various membership options at the center. He was really nice and patient that we have decided to take the membership.

Best pool in Houston. Excellent water quality due to sand filtration system and expert pool managers on staff. Water temps are pretty consistent year round, between 79F - 83F, winter or summer. Showers and locker rooms are spacious and clean. Swimsuit wringer and hair dryers available. Lots of other exercise options available; from machines and weights to courts (basketball, tennis, racquetball...).

Great place to lift if you have a membership or know someone who has one. Only has two tennis courts but you can usually get on without a problem. Not too hard to find a basketball game to jump in to. There are a lot of cardio machines and two raquetball courts. The pool is nice but under renovation right now.

I have been using this gym since I was in nursing school at UT. I love it here, it has everything you would need, its just a great little work out place. Not your typical gym because its not a chain, its a Rec center for affiliates. Dont expect things like sauna or daycare here.

Great rec facility, has everything you need. The staff isnt always the most knowledgeable, but theyre mostly students. The facilities are in good condition, and the rates are cheap if you qualify for a membership

Excellent gym! It has a lot of cardio machines! And the pool is incredible! The price is very convenient specially if you are a student. Im enjoying my work out every day!

Great place to workout if you can get a membership. Just dont go after work, unless you want a crowd. A 5th star for me would be kid care; but Im being bais on that.

Very clean and well appointed gym. Offers a variety of classes with a pass. Personal training is available. Pool is nice now thats its remodeled.

Martin Castaneda

Great gym with an outdoor pool and all the amenities you need to get your workout on. Keep in mind most of the members are of college age.

Nice cardio / weight areas. The pool is outdoor, so in the summer can be too hot. No sauna. Large locker rooms.

Philip Pegg

Fantastic outdoor aquatics facility. 11 ft deepend that is polo ready. 10 lap lanes with 6 ft lanes

The pool here is amazing. Was just resurfaced in the spring of 2017. The staff is amazing.
