About
Cold Plunge & Sauna
This gym offers a clean and hot sauna that members specifically highlight as a key recovery amenity. The sauna provides the dry heat benefits for muscle recovery that many gym members seek. While a cold plunge is not mentioned, the facility complements the sauna with other aquatic relaxation options. The outdoor pool is noted as a great perk, and the jacuzzi is described as very soothing, supporting a well-rounded post-workout recovery experience for members.
Staff
The staff is consistently highlighted as the gym's strongest asset, described as warm, welcoming, professional, and incredibly helpful. Specific team members receive frequent praise, including membership managers Victoria, Valentina, and Sharlom for their transparency and outstanding customer service. Trainers like Devin, Rasheed, Ryan, Aida, and Zhina are noted for their uplifting, knowledgeable, and encouraging approach. Front desk attendants such as Sharon, Josh, and Danis are recognized for their kind greetings, and the director, Mr. Dennis, is appreciated for his genuine engagement with members.
Additional Amenities
The gym provides modern and well-maintained equipment across clean and spacious facilities. Other notable amenities include indoor tennis courts, hydromassage chairs, and multiple space options for quiet workouts. Group exercise classes are plentiful and noted as a great way to make friends. The treadmills overlook the outside, which members find to be a subtle yet impactful feature.
Pricing
Gym members note a monthly payment structure but report that it requires a one-year commitment and an additional annual fee, which they feel is not clearly communicated upfront. This business model is a primary point of criticism among the memberships.
