7/7/24 - I travel for work and I use Gympass when I travel to find a gym nearby. This one didn’t have good reviews but it was close to my hotel so I went to check it out anyway. I’m glad I did and here is my review. Erik was at the front desk and when I told him it was my first time there, he asked if I wanted a tour. The tour went good, they have the equipment I enjoy using so I stayed. When I first arrived the gym smelled nice, but I did notice the weights were out of the racks as mentioned in other reviews, there was white powder on the floor in different areas. The cleaning solution is located at the entrance with towels and I noticed patrons keeping there bottles and towels with them as they used different equipment, which seems like they should use a clean towel for each machine. The gym should provide paper towels vs regular towels because that is not very hygenic. I did notice Erik around the gym picking up weights and cleaning up as I was working out. He did a great job as everything was in its place when I left. People that are complaining about the weights not being reracked, I think this has more to do with the customers than the staff as we are all grown and should clean up behind ourselves, but the staff should enforce this rule when they notice patrons doing so. Without consequences the same thing happens all the time. Overall, I enjoyed the gym and will use it while I’m here in this area. Photos posted below. 4 stars is because the white powder should have been cleaned off the floor by night shift. I arrived at 8am and Erik had to do all the cleaning.

Showed up to use a free trial at 7:45pm on 9/25/24. Couldn’t use the free trial because “it takes days to show in the system” after signing up. Okay, understandable. Can I buy a day pass then? No “because I’m shutting the computer down soon so I can’t sell you a day pass right now… come back tomorrow”. I’m good.

Not a bad gym if you find the right time to go, when its not crowded. The equipment is very old but i guess it will do.

I go to the gym almost every day and whenever I see Erik he’s always so nice and open to answer any questions I have, he’s always on the move and making sure the gym is clean as I have not once been disappointed with the cleanliness of this establishment and can see why. Overall above and beyond care from the Erik.

Gym has been on a sharp decline since its rebrand. Equipment is constantly breaking and takes weeks to get repaired. Staff stays at the front desk on their phones or the computer instead of walking around cleaning, organizing and providing towels. Even their trainers don’t teach their clients to re-rack their weights. Only reason I haven’t left is because it’s 24 hrs and the family plan/ member add-on deals keep my monthly cost low.
