Alfred E. Smith Recreation Center

This recreation center seems more suitable for the elderly, as they have a variety of facilities such as a gym, ping pong and basketball courts, pool tables, and a swimming pool. The membership fee is indeed the cheapest you can find in the city. However, some of the equipment is outdated and in need of an upgrade. The hours for badminton play are limited, and the court can get quite crowded, making it difficult to play. Additionally, the court floor is not made of rubber and can be quite slippery, which can be dangerous when playing badminton. Overall, while the center offers a range of activities, improvements to equipment and facilities could make it a safer and more enjoyable experience for all.
Nice local rec center with plenty of space for kids and families. The staff was welcoming, and the place felt clean and safe. Good spot for indoor activities or just to take a break from the busy city streets.
Staff is always kind and professional. I use the fitness center mostly but they have a computer room with a printer that I've used in the past. They have an indoor gym for basketball, inquire about the hours for adults. I believe they have some fitness classes. They clean the equipment in the fitness center but sometimes people that use them don't wipe the equipment after they use it so I always wipe before and after.
has okay courtgym but bad lighting making it hard to see. The weight gym is nice and they added new machines for legs recently. Can be dirty tho especially the pullup handles. The lighting in the changing room and bathroom is really dim and smells kinda bad The staff is okay, esp since they moved the one rude staff to another center.
