I had to change my review, the gym smelt really bad last time I went and the aqua massage machine smelt like cabbage, which is still making me feel sick to this day. I?ve notice that the local homeless people have made a little makeshift shelter on the side of the gym and that would probably explain the smell. Noticed a young woman not dressed for the gym (big hiking boots, baggy cargo trousers with tassels, a hoodie with surgical mask and full makeup) she came up to me and my brother asking for the weights that my brother was using, that he wasn?t even finished with. We decided to let her have them cos she was creeping us out and she didn?t even use the weights. After being in the gym for over an hour and a half we noticed that she didn?t do any exercise the whole time she was there. So we think she was just using the gym for shelter but yeah probably wouldn?t recommend.

The gym is small and crowded. Weights are all over the place. The lockers are broken. Only a few can be locked. And the siuthgate bus station is so crowded. Buses are never on time. Its only worth it if you loce nearby.

Unfortunately,lately it doesn't even look like a gym but some social club. Bunch of teenagers goofing,laughing and socialising around and occupying half of the gym ,sitting on machines ,not working out but just scrolling on their phones.Also lots of other ppl seem to go there coz of boredom , only sit on machine,no work out, and starring on their phones or checking the people around. So your chance to get on machine is many times zero and you leave frustrated . There should be time limit on each machine and people should be more respectful towards other ppl who actually go there to work out and not play with the phones or treat this place like social clubs

Staffless gym, very clean, well equipped and reasonable price. Many offers.No parking

Awful layout but for me the worst is the children inside. As a former pt not only is this annoying for other members (they train in groups of 5-8) but it?s very dangerous for them long term as it seems there is little to no education for them when they join and they could be causing long term damage. Maybe have certain hours or sites under 18s only. It?s only a matter of time before we see an accident. I have a teenage son and I would advise him to have a specially adapted program before being let loose in a gym

I am sorry I have to give this gym this rating. However, I am a member of this gym and book classes regularly. However, some staff members (gym Instructors)are not welcoming and have little to no customer service.

Nice gym for a good price.Definitely need more cleaning stations and supplies especially for the amount of people who use this gym.

Too many children attend this place. PureGym need to stop selling £9 quid memberships to 13 year olds. Place is too busy all the time. And kids don't have the decency to use the gym. One of the worst branches that I have seen!!!

Workable for a simple workout but definitely a no from me on the long term. the layout is confusing. Small corridors and multiple levels with closed areas mean that it feels claustrophobic. Parking is a nightmare - don?t bother if you?re driving.

Very good value for money and good location. If you are not fussy then this gym is more than enough for you. Also the trainers are nice guys and doing good team sessions.However it has some cons that made me give only 3 stars:Biggest issue is that the place gets so crowded ( especially in the evening) , that it makes it almost impossible to work out. I even got so annoyed one day that i just left. 160-170 people are too many for such a space.2nd : the cleaning in the toilets and the changing room doesn?t keep up with the amount of people. Of course it will never keep up as one cleaner can?t possibly be everywhere at the same time and clean for 160 people.3rd: because of so many people the air quality is not very good, i can feel it when i run. Its too hot and hard to breathe.Also they trying to sort it by turning the AC on , but with a ceiling of only 3m the cold air blows right on peoples sweated necks bringing them at risk of getting sick. The solution would be a ventilation system that extracts warm air outside not that pushes cold air inside. Or an even cheaper solution is to keep windows open ?Overall the gym is ok as long as you don?t need to use it during peak hours. However if you need to use it during peak hours , you can somehow avoid the worse by doing mainly cardio or joining team classes with a trainer , or doing leg exercises or aerobics.If you go for the other machines or especially for the free weights and the benches you might find yourself waiting for your turn.

The place is OK. Spacious. Toilets dirty. Staff here are much better compared to borehamwood. They actually say hello.

A place for teenagers to hang out in groups rather than a home of exercise. Don?t come to this gym and expect to ever get on the weights. 5 or more people per machine, each waiting for the other to finish. WHY the managers don?t say anything is beyond me.The classes are quite good but spin is in a tiny room and over packed.I?ve definitely been to better PureGyms.
