Overall: Sorrento Valley Racquetball & Fitness Center has a laid back, friendly, clean, fun and professional vibe. The courts are well maintained, the entire place is super clean and it's conveniently located right where the 5 and 805 meet.
I've only been here twice but both times I've been blown away by how friendly the staff is.
When I went in this last time I let John (one of th owners) know that I wanted to review him for MojoPages. He'd never hear of MojoPages but that didn't stop him from taking me on a full tour of his facility. You could see the pride in his eyes as he showed me everything this place has to offer, and it was impressive. I originally thought they just had racquetball courts, but they have a full strength training gym, cardio, showers, lockers, the works.
This place has been around for 30 years and you can tell they haven't gone corporate, it still has that friendly mom and pop feel.
I almost forgot to mention, they even serve BEER! aaah exercise nirvana at last.
Value: Since they've been around for 30 years they don't have to charge the huge sign up fees of most clubs. It's only $9 for the first month and $30 a month after that. You can just come in and pay $8 to use the full facility and they don't hassle you or pressure you to sign up for monthly. I didn't even know they had a monthly program until I asked.
Service: super friendly, kind, willing to help. There is nothing more telling of a business owner than when he goes out of his way to please everyone. John did this and more.
Quality: Very clean, well maintained courts.
Pros: nice courts, full gym, shower, locker, low low prices, they sell beer.
Cons: they have 7 courts so you need to make a reservation in advance
Price Range: $5 - $10
Recommended: Yes
