I only write yelp reviews when I have an exceptionally poor experience or an exceptionally optimal experience. If I could give zero stars I would. First, the water was COLD. My two year old son's teeth were chattering and his lips turned blue within 5 minutes of swimming there. I asked a life guard if there might be something wrong and when she checked she said it was 81 degrees, which was only 2 degrees colder than what they usually keep it at. 83 degrees is 15 degrees colder than normal body temp. This is WAY too cold for little ones. I later heard that they have a hard time keeping the water warm. If this is the truth, it would have been nice to hear up front. Next we went to warm up in the hot tub. Apparently they only allow 15 or so people at a time, which I have no problem with, but as I approached the hot tub, the head life guard, a young boy, held his hand up at me with a stern look and shook his head. I had no idea what he was shaking his head at and felt very unwelcome. I had only just come through the door and was still far off from climbing in. It seemed as though he was reprimanding me before greeting me and sharing the rules with me. Very shortly after I began to understand what was going on, three people exited the hot tub. He looked at me with a grimace and said, "you're lucky". I understand that young people who are given responsibility and power are just learning to find themselves and their way in it. I don't blame this young man for his misunderstanding of how to enforce rules in a kind way. But I do blame the adults who run this facility for not mentoring him better. I left shortly after that. When I arrived home I found I had left my toiletries bag in the shower. When I called to see if they had it the next day I was told over the phone that they "usually throw these kinds of things out". When I asked him to let me know if it was there or not he said he was not permitted to tell me over the phone. I said, I have a two year old and I really don't want to drive across town, just to find out it's not there. Would you please tell me if you have it in the lost and found? He said, "no". I drove across town that day with my son in tow. When I got there they did not have my toiletries bag, which was a nice plastic water proof zipper bag with shampoo, conditioner, deodorant and soap. Why on earth would you throw such a thing out instead of keeping it for a day in the lost and found? I simply could not believe how disappointing and unkind this whole experience was. I had to write a yelp review. There really isn't much more I can do except warn people away.

Great programs for all ages!Our twin toddlers thrived in the structure and had so much fun working with the coaches. They got to experience all of the equipment and became excited about the sport.

Great experience with everything at Boulder One Fitness. The facility is exceptionally clean and there are always machines available, even at the busy times before and after work.

It's appalling that they are basically shut down for a year now due to Covid. Lack of exercise is killing people. My kids cannot even play basketball indoors anywhere in Boulder now. This rec center wasn't great to begin with, although their pool was always nice.

This is a fantastic place for kids to learn a snow grow through gymnastics! The atmosphere is low pressure and emphasizes fun while also staying driven for your goals. I highly recommend sending your kids here!

This review is for swim instruction through Boulder Rec Centers. Long story, but I've been trying to register for private swim lessons for two months now. Tremendously difficult to get anyone to respond at all. We are still without a teacher after two months of emailing.

It would have been wonderful and logical for the city of Boulder to turn on the air conditioning system for a large gymnastics competition in this gym (9/10). Five teams, lots of spectator, very warm and uncomfortable. Way to go, Boulder!
