I think most of such facilities are in rather non-descript locations.  
I had the occasion to visit on the main exchanges in the Netherlands,  
AMSIX, a few time:

+Netherlands&sll=37.0625,-95.677068&sspn=0.006387,0.009098&ie=UTF8&z=16& 
iwloc=addr&om=1

Also in a rather dumpy neighbourhood, and also close to railroad tracks.
