SEFCU Fitness Center

Negative experience: In the past they allowed the public to join the fitness center and rent a locker. This was great because I work nearby. Now only students and faculty can join. Why do you have this restriction? There was never a problem that I saw. When my son went to UAlbany we could go together. When my wife's company was on campus we could go together. I went to school there. I don't understand making a policy for no reason.

Fantastic experience: Very good place.

Positive experience: SEFCU gym is decent for the free gym for UAlbany students. However, machines are often OOO and rather than fixing it, they just put up tape for months and eventually bin the machine. The weights on the new bench press also don’t match the current weights. They need to fix their broken mirrors and clear out the vents because there’s very visible dust on all the vents. Also, poor ventilation / no fans to help facilitate airflow.

Negative experience: Some of the most thieving, dishonest, lazy management I've ever seen. Every month they find a new way to add fees without ever adding new facilities or equipment. The moment you're off campus housing, its a new hidden fee every time you show up. Some of the most pathetic, dishonest business practices ever. Hope the managers croak painfully.

Positive experience: Largest gym on campus with the most amount of equipment, really nice

Positive experience: Free for students, has everything you need and is close to campus. Edit: 2 years later my biggest complaint is the size. This place is almost always packed and you may find yourself in a queue for equipement. Go earlier in the day if your schedule allows it.

Positive experience: Good place

Positive experience: Decent gym, just a little small.

Positive experience: I'm rating the gym along with the access to the exercise classes and pool, the gym is rather small, my biggest complaint is no kettlebells but they have everything else pretty much. The gym has more then your budget gyms would have in the area and costs less per semester especially with the pool access and classes (normally a lot more money at a regular gym with pool). The jacob's ladder is a big plus, most gyms don't have one, always go here off peak. The gym is lacking more strength equipment, this is something one can supplement by taking exercise classes (which offer a lot more equipment). The pool is great, its never at full capacity, I can always swim in my own lane and hours are plentiful. The classes are great also lots of variety and some pretty intense ones also (TRX for example & Strength Training).

Positive experience: Small area with limited equipments.

Negative experience: This place is trash.

Positive experience: Needs more equipment for a university gym. And it's expensive

Fantastic experience: awesome facility, love to go daily.
