About
Cold Plunge & Sauna
This gym offers a sauna and steam room for post-workout recovery. Gym members note the sauna is on the smaller side, but it is a valued feature alongside the steam room. The aquatic recovery options are a significant highlight, featuring multiple hot tubs. Members report one large hot tub in the pool area, with additional smaller ones located in the locker rooms and an outdoor hot tub. A dedicated cold plunge is not mentioned in the available feedback.
Additional Amenities
The aquatic facilities are a major draw, featuring a 25-meter, six-lane pool suitable for lap swimmers, mile swimmers, and triathletes. The gym is packed with top-of-the-line equipment, with many members citing it as having the best weight lifting equipment among local Genesis locations. Over 80 group fitness classes are offered, including yoga flow and a highly praised virtual cycle program. Other noted amenities include child watch services, towel service, and locker rooms.
Staff
Feedback on staff is mixed. Many members report friendly and helpful interactions, with specific praise for front desk staff who assist with lane availability and for individuals like Jess Brown and Hank, who are noted for excellent customer service. However, some members report negative experiences, including instances of staff being described as rude, unhelpful, or dismissive during membership freeze requests, and personal trainers who ghost after consultations.
Atmosphere
& Facilities The club can become crowded during evening hours. Some members note that the gym is not very clean, with a lack of spray bottles for equipment and a bad smell in the locker rooms. There is also mention of ongoing mold growth on HVAC ducts. Despite this, many long-term members appreciate the range of amenities. It's important for prospective members to understand membership tiers, as a platinum membership does not grant access to all Genesis locations, requiring an upgrade to diamond for full club access.
