1/5 John N. 2 years ago on Google
I
was
excited
to
try
the
Eastlake
Crunch
as
I
am
a
long
time
24hr
Fitness
member
and
Crunch
is
much
closer
to
home,
and
I
was
sure
it
would
have
newer
equipment
and
it
had
to
be
cleaner
and
better
maintained.
To
be
fair,
I
know
Crunch
is
going
for
a
discount
pricing,
so
I
did
not
expect
better
or
more
equipment.
When
I
walked
in
I
saw
a
well
lit
room
with
clean
laminate
flouring
and
newer
white
machines.
I
was
surprised
to
see
a
4
lane
lap
pool!
And
they
have
a
couple
of
"water
therapy
massage
chairs"
that
are
a
sweet
bonus.
I
did
a
trial
day
guest
pass
and
the
representative
was
great.
They
do
have
more
than
one
serious
Olympic
station/racks
for
heavy
stuff
with
the
color
coded
rubber
weights.
Good
start!
Here
is
the
bad:
The
rest
of
the
free
weight
and
plate
loaded
equipment
areas
was
dimly
lit
and
kind
of
filthy.
The
floors
were
appalling
with
dust/filth
wads
and
shreds
of
discarded
cleaning
towels
were
in
all
the
low
traffic
ares
such
as
walls,
between
equipment
supports
etc.
And
the
frame
rails
of
the
cable
racks,
presses,
benches
etc
were
absolutely
black
with
sweaty
debris
collection.
Dumbbells
were
not
plentiful
and
were
scattered
about
on
the
floors.
They
had
at
least
4
major
pieces
of
equipment
(lat
pull
down,
pull
up/dip
rig
with
knee
counter
weight
etc)
that
had
"out
of
service"
placards
that
were
soiled
enough
to
demonstrate
the
equipment
and
been
down
for
a
while.
They
also
had
a
surprising
amount
of
very
old
some
times
extremely
well
worn
and
rusted
equipment.
Even
a
few
very
out
dated
poor
ergonomic
pieces
I
have
not
seen
since
YMCA
gyms
in
the
80s.
Lastly,
I
was
there
in
early
afternoon
on
Wednesday
before
Thanksgiving;
not
busy;
however,
they
had
so
few
plates
for
the
free
weights
that
people
were
having
to
wander
around
and
ask...."do
you
needs
those
45s?
or
25?
or
10?.
There
was
not
close
to
enough
free
weights
for
the
few
people
on
a
Wednesday
afternoon!
When
I
was
leaving,
the
same
person
who
initially
helped
me
asked
for
my
feedback
and
I
gave
her
my
positive
and
negative
as
above.
She
acknowledge
the
mess
and
said
they
had
just
hired
a
new
cleaning
person,
as
the
previous
person
had
left
3
weeks
ago.
Hmmmm...
so
what
I
saw
looked
really
bad.
It
was
not
3
weeks
accumulation.
Do
they
really
rely
on
a
single
person
to
maintain
a
busy
gym.
I
did
not
see
the
restrooms.
She
also
acknowledged
the
shortage
of
plates
and
said
it's
been
a
problem
since
they
opened
but
the
powers
that
be,
don't
seem
inclined
to
purchase
more.
Perhaps
the
new
cleaning
person
will
do
a
better
job.
What
about
the
management?
Do
they
care?
I
have
a
new
found
appreciation
for
24hr
Fitness.
