Very clean and has great equipment. it also has a welcoming environment. if you’re a student at utep, I highly recommend going to the gym here

Best gym in town hand down! Olympic size pool, indoor soccer, basketball courts, racquetball, indoor track, rock climbing gym, and outdoor fields make up this incredible place in addition to weights and workout machines.

$10 per visit is a bit pricey for per-students.Again thats per visit not per day.You can find most of what they offer for cheaper somewhere in El Paso. But to its advantage it does have everything in one place.If you bring a lunch and towel you can do all the activities there eat and shower but the moment your out your pass is over.

absolutely beautiful! I love this place!!

Very clean and safe, friendly staff

I am an alumn trying to gain access to the gym. I asked the Rec if they could let me pay the membership considering I paid the $100 to be a member of the alumni association. They said I had to call the alumni association. The alumni association told me they didn’t know how to get me access. They then transferred me to somebody and she told me I had access until November of 2020. I tried going to the gym this morning and was denied access on January 28, 2020. The girl at the front desk didn’t know what to say or do because she had no clue on how to renew my membership.If you’re not a student, stay away from the UTEP rec center.Alumni beware.

Great student environment. The equipment is good and everything is usually clean. Lots to do lift weights, swimming, track, basketball, soccer and volleyball.

Indoor Pool, racquetball courts, dance studio, boxing room are a great there is a lot more than just weights!

The Student Recreation Center at The University of Texas at El Paso, is a great place for extracurricular activities, such as basketball, soccer, boxing, weightlifting and much more, one thing they could better is to adjust slightly their classes schedule so it could be more convenient for people that attend their classes.

The recreation center is amazing. It already comes as part of the tuition package if youre a UTEP student and the facilities are top of the line. The racquetball courts (three of them) are cleaned well and the pool (two 25m pools, about 8 lanes each) are in good condition. There is even an amazing rock climbing wall located below the entrance that as you walk in you will see the peak of the tower to your left. It is a place that I definitely plan to visit again and again.

Very morden and excellent. I will be here twice for one week. I like it a lot

Clean.. Since Im working cleaning it lol. Thanks for asking google

Dont like the fact that you have to beg the staff to have the multi purpose field open on time, it always a hassle with these kids to open the field on time.

Very clean and friendly. Never felt ostracized by my peers here, and most people tend to be positive. Full scale gym, and clean swimming pool, and a great rock climbing section. Best place to exercise

Great place. Has a pool, climbing wall, track, weights, cardio machines, basketball court, racquetball courts, etc. Never ever forget your ID!! You will not be let in without your ID. Guests are allowed with members and its $10 for adults $5 for kids (18 and under) but kids are only allowed in pool. Theres some pretty great fitness programs as well. And if you ever wanna go on a trip theres an outdoor adventure program that plans trips and rents camping equipment out. Theres also a game room for all the gamers out there.

Broken smith machine needs removing and dumbbell rack is set up all wrong but a great gym otherwise.

I always like going to chill and to play basketball with my friends, it is a great place to hang out

Fantastic gym for UTEP students and alum

Its great! Its a part of your tuition fee if youre a UTEP student. Theres three floors, the first floor is for the locker rooms and showers, as well as the pools. The basket ball/volleyball courts, and theres even an indoor soccer court off to the side.The second floor is where the entrance is, it has mainly all the weight machines.The third floor is mainly for cardio and theres also a small track to run on.And outside theres a soccer field to play on.

Good gym, but I really dislike the odd climbing hours. End up not going 1/2 the time because its too late or im too early. But good climbing gym.

Best place to workout, swim, box, play soccer indoor, basketball indoor, or talk to other students highly recommended!

The UTEP Rec Center is a great facility with awesome staff, from the students at the front desk, who greet members cheerfully to the fitness classes instructors who are really, really good at their craft. If you are a UTEP employee or alumni, check out their membership costs - they are not bad ...

NICE GYM BEEN GOING HERE FOR 2 YEARS AS A STUDENT, I JUST WISH THERE WAS A WAY TO VERIFY YOU WITHOUT ASKING TO SEE YOUR PICTURE, DONT YOU HAVE US IN YOUR SYSTEM WITH OUR PICTURES? ALSO JUST CAUSE I FORGET MY ID DOES NOT MEAN IM NOT A STUDENT. OVERALL GOOD

If you paid for this place in your tuition, I recommend going here. They have all you need about fitness.

Amazing gym, spacious and beautifully designed, high quality equipment and good amount of lockers. It could have rental towels though, thats why just 4 stars.

Best gym from el paso

The average student working here has never stepped in a gym so getting help is a problem when you have to explain how they can help every time. You need a parking permit to park or else you may get a fine. The gym is quite small and bad for anybody who has ever been in a gym for prolonged periods of time. The equipment is not great.

Great facility!

Staff could improve, their customer service is very apathetic

Good facility, friendly staff, the restrooms could use better cleaning tho...

Amazing fitness center with top grade heated pools

Lots of equipment, modern, packed from 4:30-6:30

Good place to workout and play basketball.

This rec is actually really nice. Theyve done lots of remodeling, and their equipment is high grade. Staff is attentive, and lots of intramural options and activities. Dont expect much from their refs though.

Biggest gym with largest rock climbing wall and a variety of equipment

Giving them jus one star coz it has the poorest management I have ever seen in schools. They dont have anytype of respect to students even we are paying tons of cash each semester. They will know you well that you are member and authorized to workout, but if you accendintly forget your ID Card, you are gone. They will threat you like a homeless. Very poor management very poor ️

Great place to workout but staff is extremely rude

Love the facility. Very clean and great staff.

All the staff is very friendly and the pool area is always clean.

Great variety of equipment, swimming pool, raquet ball court, climbing wall and more!

Up to date machines and equipment, cleanliness is great, staff is available to help but not in your face. Pool is kept clean and always a lifeguard on duty. Only downfall is lack of wifi, but thats honestly a UTEP problem most likely.

Huge facility thats sure to fulfill your fitness needs. The equipment is well-maintained; nothing rusty or on the verge of falling apart. There are: plenty of free weights, strength machines, cardio equipment, an indoor track, rock climbing wall, basketball courts, racquetball courts, swimming pools, two sets of locker rooms (with lockers you can rent for a semester), group classes, and more Im sure Im missing. Its free for UTEP students (paid for by your tuition), so take advantage of it!

Great facility for students who want to exersise or hang out while being active.

Love coming here to workout in between classes. Everyone is friendly and the place is always clean.

Student friendly. Clean good atmosphere to work out

Very nice and clean facility. The staff is very cordial too.

Could you please update the system so we dont have to show our ID every time we enter the gym!!! I would really appreciate it.

Nice place to train. Has facilities

The fitness center facilities are amazing

Best place to go work out in the mornings before or even between classes, at UTEP.

State of the art and very clean from equipment to the locker room. Very friendly staff great facility

I love it here, they have a really nice rock climbing facility that I really enjoy. The staff is really friendly and there is always something to do.

For the tuition we pay, I think UTEP can update the system to go in and have more better workout equipment and more cardio machines.

Crappy gym with crappy hours. Also close early when there are football games

Expect a parking ticket if you dont have a sticker

This gym needs a upgrade very badly. They dont even have a proper smith machine. It sucks that UTEP is being so careless about the renovation of the gym.

I called to see about the hours of the pool and if they allow monofins and as soon as I said I wasnt a student the persons tone changed and didnt let me finish talking and just hanged up, I never felt so insulted before by how rude this person was on the phone.Seems like utep is very stuck up. Its supposed to be public with an entrance fee of 10$ and yet this person was beyond rude.

Great facility for students and faculty to enjoy.

Great fitness center if youre a UTEP student or faculty

Sweaty time = shape...

Free weights, a huge pool, basketball courts and racketball courts. Could have better hours though.

A bit busy, but one of the best gyms in EP

Great gym for students, but they need now free weights

Too much crowded

Like the place. Just wished it was 24 hours or opened up a little earlier

Pretty big building, has everything there, spinning area, weights, pool, indoor area for soccer, area for hiking and many other things

As a utep student, you can spend hours here exercising in very clean facilities, there is always staff present ready to help and it has racquet ball rooms and basketball courts, semi Olympic pools, different machines, and a short running loop.

Great facility, gym equipment and very friendly staffs.

Although a bit more expensive than other gyms, the installations of this gym make it worth going. Fitness classes are offered, you may play ball if you decide not to use the machines or take a swim at the pool.

Good

So much to do there and very spacious

Its cool

Most clean place Ive known

Great facilities.

Nice

Very good!

Nice set up

Great best to relieve stress

Nice clean place

As a UTEP student, this is, by far, the university service I use the most. We pay for it through our tuition, so build a healthy habit and pump some iron.

Nice place to workout

NEEDS A SUANA

Awesome place!

Like that place

Great swimming

Always clean

Great gym

Great equipment!

Great design of all the buildings

Got called out for wearing jogger-jeans. Too many restrictions, especially for the average weight lifter. Pretty pathetic.
