Good to see that this location has renovated the flooring of the weight lifting area along with weight machines themselves. The lady/greater at the front was very helpful as well.

Long story short.. I signed my daughter up to take swimming lessons for the mornings.. The first day we got there Sarah Kelly told me we have to come back in the evening because there was no one to teach my daughter at the time. I asked for a refund Sarah Kelly told me it will take 5 days so at this point it’s been 3 weeks. Sarah Kelly gave me the run around and ignored my calls and messages. So I had call my bank and do a dispute for the transaction to get my money back.
