Its a great gym. Nice equipment. Great trainers. Love the location. It really worked for me. i just cannot get over the fact that they keep raising their fees for current members every year. I was a member back in 2000 for 3 years. I quit because I was paying over >$75 per month and they were allowing new members to join for a special $50 per month (with no membership entry fees). I told them I would continue my membership and stay if they reduced my fees to what new members were paying. They would not. They stated the "specials" were for new members only. Existing members would have to quit and rejoin - but by then there would be an initial membership entry fee of $150. I left! Now comes 2006. I decided to come back and give this gym another chance. I signed up for 2 years - and my fees were fixed at $60 per month. They even told me that this will not increase. And my contract stated the same thing. Its one year later 2007 - well, they raised my monthly fees by $3 dollars. Well - what happen to what my contract said and that it was suppose to be locked at $60 for another year? Apparently - a tiny printed disclaimer on the back of my contract allowed for such an increase since this increased applied to everyone. Again - the lack of professionalism and respect for their members just got me fed up. i really like this gym but their continue effort in raising the fees for their current members just disgusts me. I ended my membership and now looking elsewhere.
Pros: Location
Cons: Raising Fees (no cap)
