Nice and clean gym. The customer service from the staff is average, some are friendly and others are not. Overall, it's pretty good value if you're not a serious body builder.

Honest review of this PF. From my understanding this is a corporate gym versus franchise. They obviously have more options on upgraded equipment versions.That being stated, I can only give 4 stars as although they have better financial backing, I am disappointed that they opted for the purple vinyl type mats versus the gray rubber mats. It is very challenging to not slide around on the mats or have the mat itself slide (especially during any plyo or very sweaty type exercises).The 45° Leg Press is also not the better option, as there is hardly any grip on the foot pedal and one can slide up during the press.The upright bikes seem to indicate low battery frequently, which hopefully gets resolved.Not just wanting to complain about the equipment, there are great upgrades, such as the abduction and adduction machines, which allows you to increase the angle by tilting the seat back.Most of the machines have a timer and counter on them, which really adds value to one’s set and reps. They have more machines than the franchises.The cable pulley machines are also pretty impressive, with the slotted weight options and different design altogether.They keep the place clean and are constantly walking around and cleaning. Even the manager partakes in this, which I find amazing and he gets much respect for doing so.Overall it is a great gym, great price, great space, great manager (free parking - when not competing with downtown shoppers)
