    I do like the gym in Drumcondra, I’ve been working out over there for nearly 2y but I think now is time to say goodbye for Flyefit. Leg extension, abduction machine have been broken for over A MONTH !!!! This week for example there are THREE MACHINES broken. I wasn’t able to simply use the gym to do my work out, so I had to go to another unit. I’ve asked management about it and I was told that they did what they could and now are waiting on the head office. Honestly, that is VERY DISAPPOINTING because I’m paying for a service that I’m not having it. PLEASE HEAD OFFICE you guys need to get this sorted ASAP.

    Good selection of weights and machines after 5 pm too busy to workout. Machines dusty (rower resistance fan, assault bike, ecc), air conditioning on very high setting (probably they never changed the filters and I already got sick twice), mold and dirt in the showers. Water is not hot. Of course is not expensive but 1 month was enought for me!

    Currently three legs machines are broken, one for over a month. Super busy and not well organized.

    Closes way too early, not everyone has a 9-5 job and closing times on the weekend are ridiculous. Since they never reopened the 24-hour gym I never botherer rejoining after the pandemic and switched gyms.

    For some reason my review has been edited and my comments were removed. This gym is a disgrace. They still have not replaced broken machinery, avoid at all costs. I would give zero stars if I could. Machines have been broken for months and some over a year, and they have the cheek to higher prices.

    I come here just about 3-4 times a week as it's very close to where I live. I used to take showers there until one day when I realized tons of moulds all over the showers. I ran away as I felt absolutely disgusted by that. I mean, what a state of those walls. The black mould is everywhere. And also, in women's changing rooms are very low in temperature. Like literally freezing every single time when I get there. I understand people are sweating and all, I do myself after workout but that room is like a freezer. It's way too Cold

    Fairly large but mediocre gym. Infuriatingly frustrating 1980s magnet stripe system at the entrance gates which fails to work half of the time. Staff then refuse to let you in unless you log into the app to prove that you are a member even if they already checked that the day before and on dozens of other occasions. Complaints are met with complete indifference. If this keeps happening I will quit my membership. In addition, showers are filthy and often the water is only lukewarm. Machines tend not to get repaired for several weeks when they break down.

    Good space, good location and helpful staff. However, the outside area, the way is all bumpy and when it rains it turns into chaos, especially when the alley is full of parked cars, as the path also serves as a delivery of goods to the restaurants that surround the gym.

    Far too busy, people queuing for machines as there is not that much of a selection. Bad judgemental atmosphere in the weight machine rooms

    No longer a memeber after one of the trainers began throwing 50 pound weights around the gym. Awful atmosphere in the place.

    The gym is great for several reasons Firstly, the location is very convenient as it is close to town centre but also close to many residential areas. The ambiance in the gym is also great, the music helps you get a good pump and the atmosphere of hard work is really felt The variety and quantity of equipment is also amazing, even at peak hours you won’t have to wait too long to use a specific piece of equipment. On top of this, the gym is very clean and there are sanitising stations available around the gym. Great gym and brilliant staff!

  • 3/5 Joseph D. 5 years ago on Google
    Great equipment but far too busy restricting use of this equipment

  • 3/5 Cristóbal Vigar Guerrero (. 2 years ago on Google
    Good installations, plenty of machines, plenty of space and sanitization areas (Paper and spray sanitizer) Issues that I see, they use a card entry system which rely on a own card with magnetic band. They should change this into a QR system that is used with the phone, as is more usual to carry your phone as a card. The trainers are open to help and you can hire them for personal training, but they spend too much time outside the gym as they should be more time inside checking on the people if they need assistance or they are doing and excercise in a way that can harm then. This is a change of attitude which should be considered with top priority. They have vending machines, lockers, showers, tap water dispensers. Plenty of training equipment and 2 floors to move around. They have a spinning room which is kind of psychodelic, but super funny. Will keep with this gym for a couple of months. (October 2021) After some months of being using the gym, the things have improved a bit in some areas, but in other have went bad. Some of the machines are not working, or working not at full performance (one bike which is forever not usable and the walking machines which some options are not working at all) The trainers are most focused on the last cleaning hour, their classes and their students which are paying them, but they just say hi and smile the other clients. If there is anything broken at the beginning of the day, they don't realise until late as they don't do a proper check of the equipment. Some people don't clean after using a machine, which is being recorded and them don't receive any warning at all. The equipment which is working, works fine, but there is not new equipment (well, this is basically, because there is not more room for it) Haven't seen new kind of classes and there are not new trainers neither, this last is comprehensible, the first, needs some cooperation from the trainers themselves. I haven't seen any guide for new joiners in how to approach to the use of the machines based in their own limits and conditions, unless you pay a trainer, which I don't know if you will get a proper result in the long term.

    I'm not a proper gym-goer really, but the Flyefit gyms meet most of my needs. The Drumcondra branch could use a stepper and more water fountains, but I'm generally happy with the facilities.

  • 5/5 Colm B. 2 years ago on Google
    Great gym. Lots of space, good vibe, good music, good value for money. Sign up was easy and I could swipe in on my first day with no issues. Lots of equipment and it all seems to be in good condition.

  • 5/5 Aga T. 5 years ago on Google
    Spacious, plenty of good equipment available to use and lots of free classes. Another Flyefit you can access with Flyefit roaming, only €32 per month.:-)

    (Translated by Google) I'm coming here. The room is good but there are some shortcomings. Its opening is the best. (Original) Ide járok. Jó a terem de vannak hiányosságai. A nyitvatartása a legjobb.

    Did a PT session with Clarke Coaching here today, was a super session, learned a lot. Looking forward to next session. Gym very clean and cleaning equipment everywhere. Lots of equipment, so minimum waiting around!!

  • 5/5 Alexandra Mia R. 1 year ago on Google
    I‘m training since around half a year there and am super happy. Seldomly crowded and people going in this area are very nice. I experienced worse in much more expensive studios from other studio brands in the city centre.

  • 1/5 Victoria R. 2 years ago on Google
    The women’s bathroom is disgusting, showers always dirty, dirt that stays there for 3/4 days…. Half of your workout you can’t get it done cause they don’t have half of the stuff ya need. They’ll be putting up the price on April and, don’t really think it’s worthy. Better walk 20’ and go somewhere else. Okay that the price is low but, at least get all the equipment people need to workout, not that I have to buy and bring from home cause at that point it’s not worth coming.

  • 3/5 Jessica K. 1 year ago on Google
    Booking system needs to be updated it is impossible for people to book in 24hours in advance when people are working. Should be changed to a first come first served basis. People aren't cancelling so therfore others who want the spot for the class aren't going because they think the class is already fully booked.

  • 4/5 Babu P. 2 years ago on Google
    Joined in January 2022. Great value. Classes available, though popular, so book early. Never used the showers but you regularly see cleaners in the main areas, so the place is well maintained. Can get busy at peak times but not so bad as to spoil your workout. Newish gym, so a lot of new and modern equipment. Decent for a budget gym and the staff seem less snobbish than expensive gyms and happy to help with how to use stuff. Glad I joined!

  • 4/5 Ariany G. 1 year ago on Google
    The gym is great, lots of equipment and nice structure, but it is very stuffy now in the summer, the air conditioning is never on in the morning.

  • 1/5 Joseph B. 1 year ago on Google
    Sending people home having turned up at the gym with ID, an active account, another card they could change to but arnt allowed change card more than twice a month is just ridiculous. Your literally just not letting people into the gym who have paid you a membership. Proving you paid a membership to staff and being turned away is a joke Been with flyfit for years and years Will be canceling my membership

  • 3/5 Ali B. 1 year ago on Google
    I like the gym and it's very close to me but unfortunately very often there are classes and I cannot do anything in the area where I usually do my exercises. I don't use the machines in the area downstairs so I see myself in the "cardio room" waiting for the class to finish. Sometimes I literally just manage to use the machines in the cardio room and that's it, such a shame tho 👀

  • 3/5 Camila M. 5 months ago on Google
    Finding a parking space during peak times is challenging. The gym is satisfactory. Enhanced lighting at the entrance is essential, particularly now that darkness falls earlier. Insufficient lighting could result in accidents due to the uneven path leading to the gym’s entrance.

  • 3/5 Saj A. 7 months ago on Google
    I like the gym, but half the cable machines do not work. They told me it will take two weeks to fix due to shipping from canada...that was a month ago. Also it's a game with over 10 branches, why is it so hard to have items on stock? Proper gyms within the same price bracket in Dubai always have replacements ready.

  • 5/5 Rob E. 5 months ago on Google
    Visit 3 times per week. Late morning or around 2pm. Avoids busiest times Can generally use all machines or equipment required over the 75 mins. Youngish customers mainly since opposite DCU

  • 1/5 James 6 months ago on Google
    Kuba refused me entry to the gym even though I stood there with printed proof of my valid membership. Imagine that, refusing a member entry to the service they've paid for. Their shift to Smartphone ONLY access is a disgrace, and they discriminated against me in contravention of the Equal Status Acts 2000-2015. Michael in the Head Office just repeats the same line until he doesn't reply, and must be praying that you just go away. Good classes here, special shout out to Justin, Neil, and Larry, who are great trainers. Poor Kuba hasn't a clue and plays nauseating music that makes you want to leave his class, which I did more than once. He asks for feedback, but when you give him some, he argues and then just blanks you afterwards. Not an awful gym, but when they are open to the public (not a private members club), they are bound by the relevant legislation. They should reflect on that before breaking the law.

  • 5/5 Paul W. 3 years ago on Google
    Great gym. Never too crowded

  • 1/5 J D. 3 years ago on Google
    Be ready to have barely 70 min in overcrowded gym for your workout. And of course you can go only once a day. As I loved this gym now it's not an option.

  • 5/5 Aisling S. 3 years ago on Google
    Fab! Every equipment you need. Booked session, temperature taken on entering. Staff on the ball

  • 4/5 Ronan M. 3 years ago on Google
    These guys are nailing it with regards to managing the time slots and numbers of people in the gym at any one time. Pity gyms are closing for Level 5 lockdown. As a gym it very impressive and well laid out and looked after. Would recommend to anyone considering joining a gym 💪🏻

  • 5/5 Eve C. 6 years ago on Google
    Went here out of curiosity. I had heard a lot of good things about the place and went to see for myself. Wasn't disappointed. Fab place. Every piece of equipment you could possibly think of was there and every class you have ever heard of and more is available. I was VERY IMPRESSED

  • 5/5 yvonne c. 4 years ago on Google
    Highly recommend their spin class

  • 5/5 Aashish K. 5 years ago on Google
    Decent Gym. It's busy during evening times so you need to go in the morning or late evening. Missing few machines but overall it's good.

  • 3/5 Tony W. 5 years ago on Google
    If you're going at a reasonable hour like a normal human being, you'll find there's effectively no space to stretch out and loosen up as a result of a stupidly structured class timetable. Apparently no maximum to the amount of people per class means you have a room and a half's worth of people crammed into the artificial grass area. The class timetable needs to be restructured with more classes and less people per class to leave space for people who want to stretch out before their session. Otherwise, the gym is great. Friendly staff, good machines and plenty of room to move freely provided it's not at peak times.

  • 3/5 Mark Patrick L. 3 years ago on Google
    ok but always booked out

  • 4/5 Sergiu H. 4 years ago on Google
    The gym is ok. The only issues is the lack of parking spaces and sometimes being too busy. As well, they are asking you to wipe the machines you're using but the paper towels are missing most of the times.

  • 5/5 Shrikant S. 4 years ago on Google

  • 4/5 Tony D. 5 years ago on Google
    Great Gym plenty of weights and machines. Parking a bit poor. During the day hard pressed to find a spot. Pay amd display mon to fri 0700 to 1900

  • 2/5 charliejones4567 4 years ago on Google
    Way too many members for the size of it. 3 dodgy men’s showers out of 6.

  • 2/5 Loay el m. 5 years ago on Google
    It's mostly dark, and painted in grey and black, very gloomy. The equipment are placed in a very strange order .. you might not be able to use an equipment as it is very close to a wall or steel beam. You won't be able to access the treadmills zone if there's a class because the close the area. Worst thing ever .. is that they don't have parking .. very annoying to let u park inside a very tiny space and u will have to ring them and wait forever Lockers are pretty small, .. the entrance door is so annoying and u won't fit in if u have a bit full bag ..

  • 5/5 Adam G. 4 years ago on Google
    Good gym, wide range of machines and weights. Is located in a big building but can get busy during peak times

  • 4/5 Catalina C. 4 years ago on Google

  • 1/5 Pedro C. 4 years ago on Google
    First day at the gym, dint know you couldn't park after the gates as there no signs saying STAFF ONLY , this guy comes out of no where absolutely ignorant and asked me to park my car somewhere else and I said I was nearly finished my training and would be home , he still insisted , not good first impression!

  • 1/5 lo G. 4 years ago on Google
    It could be better

  • 5/5 johnnie b. 4 years ago on Google
