love the equipment, hate how loud the music is. I can’t hear my own music unless I blast the volume which hurts my ears so I workout without my music and have to listen to the same oldies station on repeat.

Amazing, best value of any gym I've ever been a member of period. Incredible pool, great weight area and multipurpose room, outdoor running, multiple basketball courts, and an incredible annual price. I won't be using another gym.
