Only thing that makes this gym different from a 24hr fitness or an LA Fitness is that it has a spa service LOL! Not worth the money. Also there is some entitled members in there who think they run the joint. Old equipment that doesnt really work. Youre better off supporting a small gym with better equipment and staff.
