    I've been coming here for basketball practice. Very friendly and helpful coach, great atmosphere, but it gets a little bit too competitive at times (at least for my taste). Except that, great facilities, although locker rooms could be a bit bigger, or maybe more benches, as it gets crowded. Good pricing for students and corona approach was balanced and fair (September 2021-February 2022). Considering it's a sport facility, maybe a water spring available for everyone would be in order?

    I don't know who came up with the idea that an EV makes parking virtually impossible, but it is far from logical; Either crazy expensive (5 euros/hour), or miles away, apparently they don't want visits from people with cars? Because apart from that, visiting by public transport or bicycle is not really made easy. I have to go through all sorts of detours to get here on time for work. You can park in the nearest P&R (also not free), which is Zeeburg, and if it is not already FULL, it is still half an hour (!) with 2 buses, and then quite a walk! Too bad, last time as far as I'm concerned. I live a fifteen-minute drive by electric car (not a Tesla, by the way) from this location, but by public transport it is almost an hour and a half. Not possible, especially with the number of uncertainties within that public transport. You can hope that things will run, or arrive on time. If you want to be sure for a certain arrival time, I have to count 2 hours! Ridiculous.

    It remains one of the best and most economical gyms in the Amsterdam area. The fact that there is easy access to a top quality powerlifting/weightlifting plateau makes the gym very unique.

    Sports center, lots of sports, many classe, also have fitness areas. In summary a bunch of variety. The gates can be a bit inconsistent but just try again or ask the front desk for help.

    Very nice sports location if you are on a budget. Gigantic building with lots of space for sports. Can be very busy around rush hour (Monday evening, Tuesday evening etc). It's just a shame how KRATOS (powerlifting association) claims an entire section of the gym for itself on some days.

    Great gym, many different areas for different sports, including bouldering, squash, fitness, and many more! There is even a sauna.

    Visited the climbing wall. It’s my second time at this gym in a span of 2 years and every time there’s something bugging me about the route setting. I find that a great majority of the problems are either very slabby or made for super tall people. It gets old very quickly as it’s always the same type of problem. It lacks creativity and diversity.

    Amazing facilities, helpful staff, very affordable prices. This is (one of) the best sports center in Amsterdam.

    Crowded. Stuff is constantly closed due to whatever.

    For the fitness, cardio and weights, definitely go here. A large hall with nearly any machine you can think of is there, and there's always something you can do in the hall. The only thing that isn't there in the hall (or not very visible at least) is the staff. When you enter the building though, they're always very friendly!

    Great gym, one of the best in Amsterdam, with nice equipment and amazing group workout classes. The prices for students are also quite affordable. The staff and the trainers are also super friendly. The only concern I have is the EXTREMELY loud music that is always being played in the general gym area. Often the music is so loud that I can't even hear my own music in headphones. It is rather confusing what role this loud (and sometimes unpleasant) music serves if most people working out are listening to their own music through headphones. If it wasn't for that flaw, I would give five stars.

    Beautiful sporting facility, lots of options for various sports, from volley to rock climbing, clean dressing rooms and a great in-house snack place.

  • 4/5 Shelagh M. 5 years ago on Google
    University sports centre, very wide variety of sports available, well equipped gym and weight room, group lessons such as yoga, kickboxing, Krav maga and Capoeira. Pretty reasonably priced with different price plans for students and people not affiliated with uva

    Have been coming here for about six months, great facilities with knowledgeable staff and very well priced for students in particular. Could use some more dumbbells in the free weights area.

    Someone has stolen my umbrella in the changing room. I asked the receptionist if she can help me. But she said that there wasn't much she could do.

😐 Unfortunately, I have to take off two stars given previously.. I am coming to this gym 6 days a week and more and more facing very inconvenient ( for me) situations involving the kids.. David Lloyd is family oriented gym and I appreciate it but the parents should learn on how to share the space with...

😠 Unfortunate to see my favourite gym constantly in disrepair. Often taking weeks to months before simple issues are fixed. Cleanliness is also not as it used to be - WCs become disgusting later in the day. Calling customer support wasn’t helpful so I thought I’d post my complaints here.
