“The gym area in particular has some pretty worn-out patches of flooring… Another big issue is overcrowding.”
“Lots and lots of routes in a cozy basement setting. Normally not too busy when I have been there. Setting is very good with creative routes and a lot of variety in different styles.”
“I think the grading is on the softer side which is perfect for beginners.”
