Update 1/20/18 New Cons 1) No more towel service, which really bothers me. I am imagining a restaurant with no toilet paper, gross! I have been members of three clubs that all have gone out of business, all three cut towel service, so this may be an indicator. 2) Movie room has be hindered by finances again. So most likely the projector burned out, and a replacement was probably too expensive. So they just bought a generic 50" LCD TV and stuck it up. Smaller screen, light bleeds through and bad viewing angle, but the worse part is you can't hear the audio, as they didn't connect the audio back to the speakers in the ceiling, Also why not an 80" TV? It's not like it was an OLED TV, is an additional $300 too much? The TV is too small to be a movie room that's for sure. 3) Management, I swear there is a new manager every six months. Which sucks, as immediately the new manager wants to show how awesome he is, by increased profits and reducing costs. Which works for maybe 2 quarters, but now you are losing customers as you have most past parity. That means your product is higher priced then an equivalent product by a competitor. In other words pushing people to Planet Fitness as I most likely do as well if they keep eliminated services. My suggestion is the following. Dear owners, it's all about upgrading, say this to all of your customers. "In order to make our gym accessible to everybody we are reducing our base membership which does not included a towel, but you as a loyal customer we are happy to offer you a free 6 month membership to our silver membership that includes one free towel per day, along with a 30% discount if you wish to continue your silver membership. See nobody can complain you took something away, as you are making it cheaper, but for those who want it better they now have options. Conclusion, check out Planet Fitness as I doubt things are going to get better. Star reduced to 3/5
Updates 7/2/16 It's now 4 star club at a 3 star price.
Pros: the members there are actually pretty cool and serious about fitness. Much more then lifetime. Movie room is great with speakers along the length of the ceiling so you can always hear no matter your location.
Crossfit room... Best way I can describe it.. New awesome bumper plates and nice rouge fitness equipment everywhere and its soft turf surface, gone is the dirty thug magnet basketball court.
Kids club seems pretty cool
Cons: It's only 3 star clean, think motel 6 so clean but no freaking spotless . Also con is they open late and close early on weekends. Conclusion it's a good deal for sure especially the $10 special if you can get it, not sure when they goes but I remember seeing a sign for it twice a year
