Love this gym. The locations are very convenient, Olympic has easy parking. Equipment is always clean. The other gym goers are really chill, polite, helpful but not pushy. The owner is a gentleman and a fine business owner. Really worth the price. Highly recommend to all. They have all the best equipment you could ever want !

The gym was really nice, while some people might complain about no front desk I found the fact that you can enter the gym at your convenience with a personal code at any time to be a very nice touch. Gym was kept clean and there was a ventilator fan at some stations. My only complain would be the lack of AC, and the fact that the gym doesn’t offer a possibility to pause membership, as otherwise you are forced to cancel if you need to stop going for a bit, and if you want to rejoin have to pay all the additional fees again. Other than that it was a really nice gym, with every possible equipment/machine you could need, and no long lines waiting for machinery which is great. can’t really complain much.

I visited the website and scheduled one of their session, and received confirmation email. However when I went there, no one was there, nor the owner neither the personnel. When I called, the owner just kept telling me that they don’t have these services anymore more, while I was standing outside the door🤕. They just don’t bother to remove that part from their website and people’s time is worthless to them. I insist to go in to see the gym hoping that I might register in those session, inside is sooooo small with bad smell. Only 2 people were working out and no one else was there. I was told not to use facilities for 1000 times and I should be a member so if in future there will be a free spot in their session, they will let me know, how future? No one knows. How much I should pay for membership? 59 $ per month plus 199$ which they talk fast so I guess no one can understand correctly and if a spot gets opened, I should pay 300$ each week. Don’t waste your time on exploring this gym, they are not responsible and respectful for people’s time. I’m wondering if they don’t provide free trials, then why its in their website??? Just to waste people’s time and energy?

I had an extremely disappointing experience when I visited this gym to register as a new member. The owner was not present, so one of the workers showed me around. Throughout the tour, I was repeatedly told not to touch or use any gym equipment, which made me feel unwelcome and disrespected as a potential member. As a scientist at UCLA, I’ve toured numerous facilities, and I’ve never encountered such a lack of professionalism. This experience left a very negative impression, and I would not recommend this gym to anyone looking for a respectful and professional environment.

Edit: please see the owners vile response to this review, clearly demonstrating my point. Learn how to respond professionally to negative reviews. There are literally how-tos all over the Internet on this subject; you are being overly reactive and exceptionally lazy, and it again shows why I'll never be going to your business. Original: I haven't even gone to this gym physically but two big issues stand out as I went to their website. I've been around the block for a while and I know very well that when businesses don't list their terms or prices clearly (ESPECIALLY gyms), it usually means that they charge whatever they think they can get away with and discriminate heavily with their clientele. The lack of any real information tells me they're probably already one of these. Then I got into the rest of the reviews trying to get a better picture and saw the owner openly accusing a reviewer of being a liar several times. Whether that's true or not doesn't matter, the owner should know that potential clientele like myself see that unprofessional behavior and run away screaming. There are far better ways to handle bad publicity and flaming people openly is not one. I'm not investing my time or money into someone who acts that way, and owner, I hope you take this message to heart instead of reacting like a teenager on fortnight again. If one person got turned off and decided to write a message about it you can guarantee that many other potential clients have gone through the same experience and just haven't told you about it. Be better.
