Okay, my review is split. The 2 rating is because the washing / toileting facilities are deplorable at the Old Fort and Memorial Blvd locations. The water pressure in the toilets are weak, requiring multiple flushes and plunging to adequately dispose of waste. The shower faucets and showerhead are horribly outdated, old, non-adjustable and the water sprays everywhere but on you. The shower soap dispensers emit something that smells like sulfuric acid. The odor is pungent, dank and offensive. There is not adequate seating or surface tops in or near the showers to shower comfortably and conveniently after a workout. The locker room is cold in the winter so expect to shiver after a shower. I've raised the plumbing ssues and I have yet to see any improvement. The staff seem passive and disinterested (just read other reviews. They say the same.). It should not be like this.
The other aspect of the gym, the workout facilities, seem to me acceptable and appreciable. I love the spaces, the layout, the movie workout room, the lounge area, the bar, the hot water coming out of the pipes and I especially appreciate the hours. For these, I give the Gym a 3.5. Once the plumbing is addressed, more points will be earned.
