Smelly towels and broken equipment
2 Star Rating: Below Average

11/05/2007 Posted by kmutton

For a gym that advertises "Open 24 hours", I find it very surprising that they close before 8 on the weekends. The below comment about the steam room and other equipment is very true. The difference between this gym and another one in Ballard was the steam room and a big sauna which really enticed me. It hasn't been working for a long time and the only thing the staff can say is that "its being looked at". Also, the fact that we pay a fairly high membership rate and can only get one towel (sometimes too small to cover half a normal size woman's body) is ridiculous. Not to mention that the 1 in 4 of the towels that are given to me smell like they haven't even been properly cleaned. I suggest they use some bleach to really clean their stinky, old towels.
