4 /5 Munashe Matutu: I am going to review the features and services within this gym and then give my overall review. Starting with:
Customer Service: The customer service in this gym seems to be pretty good from what Iâve seen and experienced. The members of staff are helpful, easy to talk to and provide great guidance and assistance when queried. Itâs worth noting that this gym provides personal training, classes, massages and some levels of physio-therapy although I havenât explored these options myself as Iâm mainly interested in the gym.
Equipment: Although this gym is moderately sized, the equipment variety available is surprisingly satisfactory. I say this because they basically have all the key and essential equipment you need to get a good workout in for whatever body part(s) youâre interested in. Itâs really easy to make the most out of the equipment available and I would highly recommend you view the gym before signing up in case youâre looking for gyms with specific equipment.
Price: The price for this gym was the greatest deterrent for me, for a long time and I only ended up joining this gym because I had no other options. I think this is probably why the price is so high â theyâre making the most out of the demand by squeezing every last penny out of you. The only alternative I had was a gym 20 minutes walking distance away and thatâs too inconvenient. So here I am, now paying an absurdly ludacris fee of £45 A MONTH for a gym that should be half the price (or atleast not so much).
Itâs worth noting that (as far as I know and from when Iâve asked) there are no special offers, discounts or customer loyalty schemes to help ease the pain caused by these high fees. I can only imagine how much the classes and personal training fees might be.
Size: The gym itself is moderately sized. Itâs not the biggest gym around nor is it small. Its size has honestly never been an issue or a point of contention for me especially since this gym is never packed to the brim unlike other gyms Iâve been to In London. Iâve also never had to queue for a machine or equipment â you could argue that this gymâs size is actually perfect for what it does and has on offer.
Hygiene: This gym is IMPRESSIVELY clean and tidy. Like honestly, even the toilets are well kept and in good condition. This is a prime example of how well kept this gym is and it really stands out and deserves commendation because some gyms tend to fall short when it comes to consistent hygienic maintenance.
Summary: Overall, although I have my qualms about the price â this gym is pretty outstanding to say the least and I would highly recommend it to anyone looking to join a new gym (and for those who can stomach the price). The 24/7 access is the cherry on top of a well-crafted cake that is the Hither Green Anytime Fitness gym.
