Overall,
this
is
the
best
Better
branch
in
the
borough
I've
visited
so
far.
The
place
is
huge,
including
many
studios
for
fitness
classes,
a
gym
and
a
swimming
pool
+
SPA
area.
There
are
plenty
of
lockers,
as
well
as
changing
rooms,
toilets
and
water
fountains.
It
is
also
clean,
given
how
busy
it
gets.
This
is
why
I
give
it
4*.
Now,
in
terms
of
the
pool,
it
is
good
but
often
overcrowded
-
last
time
I
went,
I
was
in
the
adult
swimming
area
and
the
designated
corridors
were
tiny.
I
ended
up
getting
kicked
and
accidentally
kicking
someone
back
while
we
were
trying
to
pass
each
other,
swimming
in
opposite
directions.
In
the
end,
they
brought
in
children
there
too,
who
started
to
jump
in
and
splash,
so
I
left
a
bit
annoyed
as
I
thought
it
was
inappropriate.
Then
I
had
to
wait
for
ages
for
a
shower
to
free
up,
as
well
as
changing
room
space.
As
for
the
SPA,
I've
not
tried
it
but
have
heard
excellent
reviews
about
it
only.
In
terms
of
fitness
classes,
there
is
a
great
variety
and
a
bit
for
everyone
BUT
some
of
the
instructors
seem
like
they
don't
care
at
all
about
who
is
attending
and
whether
we
are
comfortable.
If
you
are
a
newbie,
very
few
instructors
bother
to
explain
any
basics
and
ensure
your
safety
while
undertaking
the
class.
Makes
it
hard
to
stay
motivated
and
eager
to
learn
if
you
feel
like
just
a
number
to
a
class
group.
There
have
also
been
some
occasions
where
I
was
told
off
for
not
doing
the
moves
properly,
which
felt
unfair
since
there
was
no
introduction
to
the
basic
moves
to
start
off
with.
Also,
I'm
not
paying
to
be
told
off.
Some
instructors
need
to
be
reminded
of
customer
service
perhaps
and
that
they
too
were
newbies
to
the
class
they've
mastered
once.
Finally,
the
gym
is
well
equipped
but
small
compared
to
the
rest
of
the
place.
You
can
tell
the
focus
of
this
branch
isn't
on
the
gym.
There
are
only
1-2
machines
aside
from
the
cardio
ones,
so
it
is
hard
to
even
get
to
my
favourite
machines
since
it's
always
busy.
Some
machines
are
rusty
and
there
were
some
broken
ones
too.
The
free
weights
/
stretch
zones
are
great
though.
What
I
find
a
bit
annoying
on
a
day
that
I
come
in
specifically
for
gym
is
when
there
is
a
birthday
party
-
the
kids
bday
party
zone
is
right
outside
the
gym
door.
So
this
means
navigating
crowds
of
kids,
screaming
and
running
around,
while
you
enter
or
exit
gym.
This
also
makes
the
space,
changing
rooms
and
toilets
dirtier
than
usual.
I
would
suggest
to
the
parents
to
look
after
their
children
as
much
as
humanly
possible,
teaching
them
not
to
litter
and
disturb
others
in
what
is
supposed
to
be
an
exercise
space
for
adults
too.
Still,
despite
everything,
as
I
said
before,
this
is
the
best
Better
branch
in
the
borough
in
my
opinion
and
I'd
recommend
it
to
anyone.
