Staff puts a lot of effort into cleaning main floors but men’s bathroom stinks from urine and bacteria. Mop is thrown around but floors and toilets not thoroughly cleaned and disinfected. So many guys behind the front desk but no one is keeping up with the men’s bathroom which needs constant attention. I counted at least 10 people dusting the floor area last week, which didn’t need it, but the bathroom wasn’t being touched. I asked one worker why so many people were there that day cleaning the main floor and he responded “to make the gym nice for me.” I said something nicely about the men’s bathroom and he looked at me like a deer in headlights. Bathrooms should be kept pristine and less concentration on every dust particle on the main floor. Also, weight racks don’t get cleaned daily and broken equipment frequently doesn’t have signage and broken soap dispenser not replaced for at least a month. Otherwise, it’s a nice bright gym. Location is good. Price is right.
Visited other gyms, dedham is not only bigger you don't have to climb stairs or take a elevator to continue your workout!!!
Planet fitness is the only gyms that is state wide.
I like the Norwood center
Up to date equipment
People into their own work outs
All ages represented
Equipment kept clean
Dedhams equipment older styles not as good as Norwood center-
Only complaint :
People sit at equipment in between sets - look on phones long time and people have to wait to use machines
Best if people keep centered on work out and not get on phones-
Need another Bicept Curl machine and Tricept one as well - always waiting time-
I’m a senior citizen and I like the 30 minute express work out space . However, even though it’s posted that the equipment is for-those doing the circuit it’s not honored. Many of the guys will slip in to do arms and chest if their machines are full. I also enjoy the tanning beds and the Hydromassage beds!
