Probably the only gym where you have to gym with a beanie and 2 long sleeve shirts! Not even taking a shower there warms you up. Extremely uncomfortable and definitely not healthy.

Nice gym, clean toilets, equipment, always hot water, the only thing is getting crowded in the evenings now and you have to wait sometimes for machine.

Great gym and it is affordable. if i had not moved due to work placement, i would definitely still be a member there. i was a member for two years and i was not let down. The only down side was it gets over populated in the evenings.

WORST experience I have ever had at a gym. The staff at the gym do not understand their own terms and conditions, and company policies.I was told one thing when I joined, however, then found out later that this was not the case. I suffered financial loss as a result and all the staff could say was “sorry, we are new.” I had three different staff members help me when I joined and none of them understood their policies. I picked up multiple errors when joining and cancelling my membership. No one took responsibility and accountability for their errors.Furthermore, they have not had cards to access the gym for months and have no idea when this will be available?!The service is terrible and I would NOT RECOMMEND THIS GYM. STAY AWAY.

Review №23

Plenty of space, reasonably clean and never (at least in the 3 times Ive been) so busy that you wait for equipment. Very good access for wheelchairs, too.Better than some normal Virgin Active gyms Ive been to. My only quibble is that the music is too loud - I wear headphones but they are easily drowned out.

Nice and spacious, not so crowded in the mornings and very friendly staff. Always clean. Forgot/lost/misplaced two caps on different occasions in the gym, both return to me. Can get busy and crowded in the evenings. The open floor classes can be a bit intimidating but one quickly gets over it!

Gave 1 month notice of cancellation due to unemployment, got handed over 6 months later without any communication from Virgin Active. Now no one is coming back to my query regarding the handover

Lu
Review №34

Modern facilities and great changerooms. Located outside the change room are valuable lockers which are monitored via security cameras. The only negative is parking is not secured so I recommend coming early while its light.

Its a great gym but hot water is a constant problem, especially in the mornings and repairs on equipment take long.
