Exercise machines facing each other in a circle (great planning!), now looking at other hot sweaty faces, instead of having cardio machines facing out the huge windows.

The gym is fine but has too many things out of order - even one of the doors is out of order meaning you usually have to wait to enter/leave.

Great local gym, just one gripe, the temperature of the showers, know they are trying to cut energy costs but could be a few degrees warmer, it's a bit on the cold side now!

If only I could give the business a 0 star but that would be unfair. I love that I could go late at nights which is the best aspect of the gym as it is quiet and spacious however the memberships are so scam based. Tried cancelling my membership as I thought it had been cancelled since I cancelled by direct debit, 21.99 was still taken from me. Imagine a business where you can't even cancel directly on their website?! If I had no problems with cancelling my membership I would rate this place 4 stars but being deeply hurt by having that much money taken away from me especially during times like this, I cant. Wish they sorted out the cancellation option on their website so that people can cancel their membership smoothly.

Plenty of equipment and I enjoy going regularly. Odds are you will be able to get on equipment, but peak times gets very busy.However, I have never been to a place where so called "unbendable" rules (according to a company poster) are bent so freely. For example:- Many other users openly take bags on the gym floor. One of my most recent visits I counted 7 bags in a 3 metre square radius. Others hang bags from front bikes and treadmills.- One occasion someone was wearing Jeans whilst exercising.- Pretty sure there's kids under 16 that use the gym, if the are 16+ there not there with adult supervision. One kid that looked about 12-14 was there with his dad.- Locker 1 in the men's seems permanently in use.All of these I'm presuming staff have either noticed and chosen to ignore or haven't seen which begs the question about what they're doing during their shifts. Usually they are either PT-ing, running sessions or sitting in the staff room. Very rarely are they on hand on the floor allowing themselves to be accessible to members. When they are on the gym floor it looks like they're there chatting with what looks like there mates. To be fair though, when you do see them around, they do seem friendly.Away from the so called "Unbendable" rules. They seem super slow on maintenance. There's a water tap on the main gym floor that's been out of commission for at least a month and a shower that's not been in use for about as long. A couple machines could do with an oiling.Also, if you use the app to get in or out make sure1) your phone is charged2) you have a charging lead with you3) have an alternative way (key fob or remember code)Otherwise it's a challenge to get out.Finally, this might be more of a company wide issue but, there's little to nothing about photography or use of recording devices (just a few lines in the so called "Unbendable" rules about asking first). I mention this cause I had to tell a fellow member a couple weeks back to stop recording on his phone in the changing room cause PureGym don't have signs up saying so already.Use of recording devices in gyms is a growing problem in gyms and PureGym clearly aren't getting a handle on it before it's too late.Apart from all these, it's actually a decent gym. This review might sound negative, but it's really not a bad place. I'd be happy to increase my star rating if I were to see positive improvements. ??

I have been before and after refurbishment and by far the best PureGym in the area! Staff are polite and friendly and the gym is always usually clean. Toilets not always but I don't spend a lot of time in there. Showers seem alright and they do look clean. Machines at this gym (especially since the refurbishment) are so much better than other gyms like castle for example. Will definitely return to this gym and keep my plus membership for this reason!

Never had any issues with the gym ive been coming here for around 2 years now.The refurbishment is brilliant BUT for 5 weeks now the showers have been cold. I have spoken to members of staff and left a review on trust pilot. The shower are still cold. Disappointing!

New upgrades are great and I like the new squat/deadlift setup. Whenever I?m here the manager is always on his feet doing something. Good upgrades so far.

Really enjoy it here. It?s local and easily accessed with parking at Tesco. The prices are good, especially for a student and the app is fantastic for tracking engagement and specialised workouts. Although opening hours are short ending, I like that I have accessed to a 24/7 PureGym without extra charge. I look forward to the renovations.

It's five ? now since they will be back 24-hours opening starting this Friday. And I have some advice for the members; you?re here to use the equipment, not to sleep on it; it's ridiculous how they spend more than 20 minutes using one device. I swear times I want to rip them off the device.

I love this Gym: big space, plenty of equipment and very friendly atmosphere. Highly recommended!

Has an okay selection of equipment and a solid layout, the big downside and why I gave it one star is that 2 weeks into new years they have changed the opening hours from 24 hours, as a shift worker this has greatly affected how I am able to use the gym and they did this right after new years and with only around a week's notice. This is an unacceptable amount of warning for something that would have been planned ahead of time and if I was given warning more in advance I wouldn't have joined this gym.A friend who has limited hours is even more affected they now only have 8:300-10:30 to use the gym in weekdays

The free weight ground floor area smells like a sewer from the air vent and half the lockers are jammed

Signed up because it was 24hrs, except within a week suddenly the opening hours have been massively reduced (still charging the same though). You?d think this is something new members should have been informed about before signing up.
