Updated review. Absolute waste of money. If you are not part of the organized class or PT session you feel unwelcome.
Damaged flooring, dumbbells, benches and cable machine attachment's. Cleanliness not maintained to the minimum satisfactory standards.
Members are not cleaning equipment after use and not washing hands after using toilets. Social distancing definitely not in place. Old review. Great fitness club, good gym. Need some cleaning done. I would like to see staff putting more pressure for members to clean the equipment after use. My wife joined all the classes and she's more than

Lovely centre. Parking outside on upper level and a ramp to lower level. Need to enter car reg in reception on arrival for free 3hrs parking.
Steam room was the steamiest Ive experienced Hydro Spa pool is on its own on/off timer..diffrent to others that have indervidual buttons. Nice big windows with plenty of natural daylight over looking upper carpark and front aspect from pool. Changing areas, lobby, shower and poolside etc all very clean.

Expensive and poorly maintained.
Loads of dumbells are missing because they're broken and haven't been replaced. The pool floor is scuffed. A couple of the benches are broke. There isn't enough weight stacks lying about. The floor is all scuffed in the gym. For the money I'm paying it should be amazing, it's not worth it at all! Corporate rubbish!

I text here because this is ridiculous, people tried to quit with cigarettes, having an healthier life spending more time in the gym and the result is having a penalty charges for just 12 min over of parking space. I'm not the person that spent everytime 3 hours in the gym but especially when you are burnt out from your job and some situation, it can happen rarely. I have got a lot regrets about my joining with this gym, you pay big amount of money and you can't be completely relaxed that you need to escape for your parking? It doesn't make sense, it's not my concept of gym, then I understand that

Excellent quality equipment, so much space, and the long opening hours, never feel overwhelmed. Wont return to small gym anymore. Highly recommended.

Great gym great facility's, however the staff could be friendlier and really need to engage their customers more so as to make a great customer experience. I see many members lifting incorrectly so wouldn't you think the trainers would give a bit of friendly advice, you never know they may even get a new customer. All in all this gym has a lot to offer but needs to brush up on its people skills.
