Fantastic Birthday Celebration at Central Rock Gym Arsenal Yard!
I recently celebrated my daughter's birthday at Central Rock Gym in Arsenal Yard, and it was truly an amazing experience! The facilities are exceptionally clean, offering a variety of difficulty levels, including those catering to our group of children aged 6 to 10.
The staff is outstanding, but I want to extend a special thanks to Supervisor Kailan. Kailan went above and beyond, ensuring not only the safety of everyone but also providing excellent training that boosted the kids' confidence. His attentiveness made the entire experience memorable.
During an unexpected incident where a balloon accidentally floated to the high ceiling, Supervisor Kailan took immediate initiative without us asking. He skillfully used a tool to retrieve it, demonstrating determination and dedication. Despite the difficulty, he successfully brought the balloon down, earning a round of applause from my daughter, her friends, and everyone present. Kailan’s proactive, kind, humble, and professional attitude truly stood out.
We were fortunate to have such a wonderful space to celebrate, and everyone, kids and adults alike, thoroughly enjoyed the event.
Overall, a great venue, not just for its fantastic facilities but also for the outstanding staff, particularly...

Read moreVery nice gym. Nice and clean. Staff was really polite. Very easy to find and (it appears; I’m from out of town) parking is easy to find.
Note that this is a ropes-only gym. They do have auto-belays though, which is nice and unusual.
Only downsides are that this place is really small. I think maybe 50 routes. And except for one area the walls are very short, maybe 30 feet high at most??? The grades looked slightly soft for all but the higher 11s and 12s.
But if you want a simple easy place up to, definitely...
