Crowding

A common complaint is that the gym is often overcrowded, especially during peak hours and summer months when high school students have free access.

Hours of Operation

    Not the worst place in the world, but pretty close. The reception is terrible, it's dirty and smells awful. People don't bother to wipe down the equipment, and the staff is really unfriendly. Avoid the bathrooms at all costs.

    I love it here but it’s always so packed and I feel like the restrooms/locker rooms could be more cleaner

    Manager is always great, always smiling and saying good morning and goodbye. Our issue is mostly with the bathrooms in this facility. They are in need of a major upgrade and even though we witness the workers clean it, they are still filthy from just years of abuse. Additionally it would be nice if the new machines could be a bit rearranged. Right now the layout is so confusing and makes no sense. It would be nice to have the 30min body workout machines isolated as they are right now, but pair the rest of the machines together moving from a pull push flow. For example have the bench press cable machines side by side and have the next machine be the arm row cable machines, followed by shoulder press and then the lat pull downs. You can then follow those up by the leg press and leg curl machines. And we would greatly appreciate if we can get one or even two more leg abductor/hip flexor machines and another hip thruster cable machine. Those are the most popular of the leg machines and are always taken by high schoolers always on their phones. Speaking of which during summer the free high school gym goers are fine but it would be nice to have them make reservations so they are not all at the gym at the same time. As members for the past two years we have seriously consider just canceling my wife’s and mine memberships because of them. Always rude, always hogging machines and not working out and always in groups of 3 or more, it’s way too much. Please consider having them at least make reservations for certain times of the day if anything else. We really, really were close to canceling because of them. If you can’t do the machine rearrangement or even remodel the bathrooms, please please consider limiting the amount of high schoolers during summer.
