Nice January promotion. Gym is well stocked. However, too busy. Couldn't get near the equipment. Impersonal. Not very welcoming. Walked in and made it clear it was my first time as just joined.... See more

First day today

First day today. Everything was fine and staff was pleasant and helpful. Only issue was getting a phone signal to generate the QR code to exit the gym.

Perfectly set up and maintained

I've been to a few different 24 hour gyms and this is by far the nest laid out gym I have trained in. So much equipment and variety without making it feel squashed in like some gyms do. Lovely atmosphere, always clean, plenty of PTs about who all seem happy in their job and friendly. Great place to be!

Could be better

The equipment is very good and plenty of it i went at a busy time and didn't have to wait to get on anything. The carpark could do with resurfacing lots of potholes. There are plenty of lockers, and hair dryers. I was disappointed with the showers, not very powerful and not able to adjust temperature, also did not like the cubicles , also don't appreciate having to wear a costume in sauna especially when it is single sex sitting on a towel should been sufficient, it spoils the sauna experience.

Clean and tidy

Clean and tidy. Loads of leg equipment. Loads of benches. Weights, attachments and accessories a-bit all over the place, but all ok.

Changing rooms clean and plenty of lockers.

Has sauna and cold shower. Sauna is around 80 degrees but quite humid.

Direct debit setup

Joining was quite easy online until a few days later I received an email stating I had cancelled my direct debit, which I had not. Confirmed with bank that they had not received any dd request but had processed the £10 joining fee although this was recorded as a normal card payment. Only 1 set if bank details had been supplied to you on joining, so the fault lies with your company, even though I had received confirmation that the dd had been accepted. However this complaint has nothing to do with the actual gym which i think is excellent, just the financial administration. Also when trying to contact your helpline could not get through. Suggest you implement a system where consumers are told what position in the queue they are. Then they can decide to hang up and phone later. If it were not for these issues I would have given a higher score

Overall, great Facilites that need some tlc

Great gym for equipment. Some of it remains out of service for weeks, batteries on bikes and rowers need proactive checking. The worst area - the ever deeper potholes in the carpark. Initial perception is a lack of care and investment.

Compact and very busy

Firstly, in terms of parking it is very busy from 12-8 and car park is very busy so hard to park. However, in terms of the equipment it as varied equipment to use to work out.

Thanks for the reply but unfortunately the gym will not be able to contact me via phone now. The lack of response from the PT was the issue !
