reviewsWhat Members Say
Members describe the gym as a great hidden little gym that isn't too overcrowded, allowing for quality training sessions. One reviewer specifically praises the training experience with a simple 'Let's box' endorsement. However, a significant concern involves billing issues, with one member reporting continued charges after cancellation and difficulty getting responses to voicemails, texts, or emails regarding refunds. The training itself receives positive feedback while administrative communication presents challenges for some members.
