Fantastic experience: Helpful friendly staff.

Matthew Hamilton 2 years ago

Positive experience: Positives: good value for money. Despite being on a single floor it has a spaceous feel to it. Even during reasonably busy times you don't feel like people are on top of you. If you're looking for toning facilities - treadmills; elliptical style machines etc you're very well served. Negatives: not a single piece of specialist equipment for calves that I could find. Free weight section is adequate if unspectacular. Implore anyone from Better whose reading this to switch even a single of the perhaps 20 treadmills for a seated calf machine. Overall: Good if not great at this stage.
