What people say

"Here are my criteria 1. Training facilities - 8/10. Would give it a 10 if not for these - no equipment for conditioning training - limited weights for any kind of finger training (for more than one person at a time) - No lifting pins. That wooden thing that's currently there doesn't count 2. Boulder setting - 6/10. That's purely subjective based on the amount of joy I get from the regular boulders. Not the most important criterion personally, as I only do those for warm up 3. Usability - 2/10. The most critical downside. The main issue is overcrowdness. I'd try to find ways to control for it at peak hours. It's basically impossible to use all the great training facilities in the evenings. The other big issue is the internet connection, and not even a functioning wifi. You need internet connection to use Kilter and Moonboard, otherwise those are just decoration. And those are the main training facilities I personally (would) come for"
