    It's getting worse and worse. I don't know why you allow people to be on their phones for so long, blocking the equipment. I reported it to a "trainer" and he didn't care. Like everyone else, I pay a monthly fee and I can't even use the equipment. Edit: that it wouldn't be a bad idea to have a sign politely asking people not to block the equipment if they weren't using them

    I’ve been a member of this gym on 6th Street in Austin for over two years, and I have generally enjoyed my time there. However, I recently had a confusing and uncomfortable interaction regarding their gender-neutral bathroom. An employee approached me and insisted that the bathroom was for employees only, even though there were no signs indicating this. It’s also been used by other individuals, including members of the local police department. I’m not sure why I was singled out, but it was quite upsetting. I would have no problem using the men’s locker room if it was kept clean but the shower almost always smell like urine. I hope the management can clarify their bathroom policy to ensure all members feel welcome and respected.

    Bryan up front was so kind, and gave the best tour of the gym. I loved how the stairs led to what was a very cool downstairs gym with so many machines and options to choose from. I came on a Saturday and it closes at 9, I wish it was open longer! Would definitely recommend!
