Not a good value. I started my membership in 2023, and it was a new location with a good layout. The weight floor was more than suitable. It could get busy at times, but the value and kept-up machines and weights made it worth my money. Flash forward to 2025, and the gym is now owned by Pure Gym. The quality is falling off precipitously. Over the summer, the air conditioning failed and was not fixed for over 6 weeks. The location inside a new building is already falling apart. Pure Gym is enshittifying a once suitable experience. Machines aren't being kept up, probably a ruse to cynically shutter more locations.
