Truthfully I’m still recommending Baileys which I have been a member of for over 20 yrs in both Jacksonville and St Augustine. I love their facilities, their equipment, their cleaning procedures and PT Sweats trainers
There are enough people on board that we all have to wait on machines and benches. Bad problem for those of us that do a serious workout and depend on getting to the next station within a time fram to keep metabolic rate where we want it.
One of the biggest problems for all of us that are serious are those who are not. The worst is the guy/girl that sits there waiting for five minutes on their cell phone which should not even be in the gym except for Doctors or RNs, firefighters or cops. None of those will be a bench hog anyway. in the past wherever we have been a small sign ...might get someones attention but the only thing that will is a couple of employees walking the floor now and then and reminding people and then the word will spread.. Ive watched gyms have escalating problems and do nothing then end up loosing good members who should get a fair shake. This is one of the biggest problems you have. I myself have stood aroud for 30 minutes on a schedule and have to leave without touching anything. I think your attention to this would be greatly appreciated by all members. Thanks
Never too crowded equipment in good shape plenty to choose from clean restrooms. I just wish they would mix up the music once in a while. They play the same stuff over and over.
Gym looks nice after being updated. Layout is great. Lots of equipment. Separate stretching area. Water bottle fill station (I was hoping this would be installed)
The only request I have is to improve the ventilation in the mens room. Sometimes it stinks in there.
I like the new classes and the way they remodeled and the massage chairs and tanning and saunas are at the front . Wish there was a bathroom that way so you don’t have to walk al the way back to the locker rooms. But it’s cleaner as well and I love how the shake area has bar stools and opened up. Real nice
Love the lift lab classes
All the equipment required for a workout with duplication that decreases wait times. Nice additions of IR saunas, massage chairs and compression leggings. Wish we had a pool!
The atmosphere here is very clean, and the staff is incredibly professional and helpful. There’s a great variety of equipment available, & most of the members (especially in the 4am to 7am crowd I’m usually part of) are friendly and respectful. *I also come in later on some days, and even twice a day occasionally.
I really appreciate that the lighting isn’t overly bright, especially in that one quieter room—it helps create a more relaxed vibe. The additional amenities are a nice touch as well.
I’m especially thankful that the bathrooms are individual rooms instead of stalls! A huge plus. Let’s be honest, we guys can be rough on those spaces. That said, it would be great to have exhaust fans & automatic air fresheners in there. It can get pretty bad sometimes. Also, while I appreciate that the bathrooms are private and behind closed doors, it would be good to see some plumbing repairs done… many of us have run into issues with the toilets.
Overall, I’m really happy with the place.
Keep it up!! - [FIRST NAME REMOVED]
With the recent renovation, there is quite a bit more room for working out, than the amount of space that was there previously. Your front desk staff in St Augustine are super pleasant and responsive. PLEASE add another hip adduction and another hip abduction machine in St Augustine. There is only one of each and some days, you can’t get on them because they are so busy. Two of each machine helps tremendously. Thank you for replacing the spray bottles/paper towels for cleaning the machines. Having the new towelettes and having so many of the dispensers around the gym makes it easy for members to clean machines after use.
It’s easy to like the Chuze fitness experience. The massive display of functioning equipment, the ongoing classes, the level of cleaning and maintenance, the positive attitude of the staff and, most of all, the great friends we have made.
love the gym, super clean, upgrades are really nice.. BUT.. We need a Clock somewhere in the gym other than the bathrooms - not everyone brings their phones with them into the gym -- please bring the clocks back!
otherwise - its all grand!
The staff was extremely friendly and accommodating. The gym floor was also clean and well organized. As an out of state visitor, I'll be visiting this Chuze anytime I'm in St. Augustine visiting family. Keep up the great work!
