Came Saturday evening, what Google said was the busy time. Clientele was exclusively 35+, almost all 50+. Facilities very old. Small hot tub and sauna. Lots of rooms and lockers. Some play areas. No maze. Very friendly staff/owner. Honestly, 5 stars for effort in maintaining a gay presence in Cowtown, 1 star for the “busy” geriatric crowd, and 2 stars for the facilities = 3 stars total.

Why is there a picture of a sex swing in a locker room?

Place was dirty, but the staff was very accommodating and very very friendly. Unfortunately, the fire alarm went off and had to evacuate. They were very good about it though and accommodated what was necessary for the inconvenience. Five star for the staff Odyssey two star or one star for the actual venue itself. The rooms were a lot more spacious than I had assumed which I was grateful for, and the space was much bigger than anticipated. The staff was very diligent about things that needed proper care and attention.
