This gym is pandering to the lowest common denominator.

Although it's supposed to be open until 10 (which isn't exactly late) the staff will start hassling you at 9:30 to start getting showered and changed.

As a woman I rarely felt comfortable about going to the jacuzzi - it was often full of two or three loud guys who I didn't feel comfortable sharing with.

In classes they quite often have the music dangerously loud (and their sound system is awful). I'm a trained sound engineer, I know about this stuff!

The equipment is packed really close together, so it's hard to get around from one piece to the next.

A few of the staff are OK, but they turn over very quickly - the ones who have been there for a while still know frighteningly little about sports and fitness!

Nice op. I only rated it FH though because you needed to write more - about what equipment they have, how much it costs, whether you get an introduction session, what a membership gives you, etc. If you edit the op, give me a shout and I'll re-rate. Morgan XxXxX
