Review

I like the fact that it’s big and most of the times clean. I dislike the fact that there are only 3 smith machines for such a big gym and the payment method is sometimes unnecessarily slow because trainers do not understand

The gym is ridiculously busy

The gym is ridiculously busy, no space to workout or even move. It’s full of people recording and no consideration for others. Don’t think the gym should allow such a high capacity of people at the gym

Hello - Thanks for taking the time to leave this review. Our gyms are very popular and can become busy especially at peak times, but this does fluctuate at different times of the day and night. To make the most of the space where possible, though, we are always looking to improve our facilities.

Suggestions to gym

The stretching area is too small. There’s some strange guys who use the whole area and do not allow other members to use it at the same time. there’s no special Powerbar for bench press, there is only bar for squat. Hope gym can purchase some special power bar for bench press. Moreover, improve the bench press machine. There’s no protection on the both sides. Overall, I suggest that gym can purchase eleiko competition rack and special bar

Not a great 1st experience but hopeful for next time

I couldn't get into the turnstiles as QRCode wasn't working but a very helpful instructor let me in. I had had a very busy day and was looking forward to using the gym and sauna. But I didnt even manage to get to the gym because I realised I needed a padlock for the locker, I had a gym token but couldn't use that. So paid £6 for 1 and then I couldn't work it so had to keep asking someone to help me. In the end I just went to the sauna but that wasn't working. So not had the great 1st impression especially returning to the gym after a 5 year break. I'm really hoping the next visit is better.

Toilets and Rigs

Toilets have bad smell, not well cleaned.
Rigs area are very small and crowded, and only one dip bar is available.

The staff are excellent—very friendly and helpful—and there is a great variety of equipment. However, the main issue is the lack of floor space, whichp makes it difficult to exercise comfortably. In comparison to the JD Gym in Rochdale, this location feels significantly more cramped and less spacious. Also, the it is not 24 hours gym and that keep it so limited.

The gym is well equipped but showers need more work

The gym is well equipped, clean and tidy. There could do with have more stations for wiping down the equipment. The showers are not good - low power and are at a fix angle and a fixed temperature plus the water is on a timer which for the shower I was in was about 30 seconds so it felt like I was constantly pressing the button.
