Great neighborhood gym. It's small but has everything you need to get a great workout. Open 24/7 and never packed.
Me and my wife were visiting different gyms to select the perfect one for our needs and locke gym was one on our list.I went there around 6 pm and it was not busy atall which is something i liked. The ambiance was nice, definitely gave me a studio type feeling. Equipments were clean. Everything seemed great until we sat down for pricing. The price was pretty high as compared to what the gym has to offer, including the registration fees. Also there is no designated parking area for the gym. You have to park it on the street in front of somebody's house or pay for the parking. And 1 last which really turned me down for this gym is they need 60 DAYS OF NOTICE IF I NEED TO CANCEL MY MEMBERSHIP. To me, it sounded like the type of gym you need to avoid.I been to gyms in and out for 12 years and i never felt 2 months in advance that i am going to stop working out.
A welcomed alternative to commercial gyms. I attended here 4-5 times a week for three wonderful years. Stefan has created a very organized 24/7 facility that has everything I could have ever wanted in a gym. They keep this place exceptionally tidy - you could eat off the floors. I never ran into issues with overcrowding. Additionally, were there ever a problem with a machine there would be a repair person in by the following day to fix or replace it.
Great boutique style gym. Lots of new equipment and never overly busy.(Edit: Aug 2018)I too have fallen into the category of people that cannot get any, or a minimum of customer service. I wish to cancel my membership as I'm moving, and I cannot get a response to a number of phone calls and emails sent to James Galbraith, as well as the gym directly. I accept the fact that 30 day notice is given. I believe the only option left is to contact my credit card company. Its sad.
Decent gym in a great locality. Have most of the equipment and the people are great. Not too crowded even in the evenings. Highly recommended if you live in the area.Edit (May 2018) : I joined this gym when I moved to Hamilton from Alabama in 2015. I lived two blocks away from the gym and it was very convenient. The first time I visited gym, I got a small personal tour, I was shown all the equipment's and things that they offer and I was impressed with Stefan who owns this place. He was great! Well, that was when I wanted to join in 2015. Fast forward to August 2017, I had to move back to US for good and I tried to call Stefan and inform him about my move and need to cancel my membership. See the thing is when you buy a membership for this place, he charges you every month in advance, which is normal in most places. These are automatic charges and they recur every month till to cancel the membership. He even says, 'oh well let us know 30 days in advance before you want to cancel the membership and I will do it'. That's good to be upfront, but what he also should understand is, there are times when things in life comes and we need to make changes accordingly. I got an offer and I had to move to US which I got to know in August 2017 and I had to start my work and move to Oregon in Oct 2017. I tried calling Stefan several times and left him a message to cancel my membership. He never returned my call, he was not at his office and took a while to even reply to my email. I asked him a week before my Sep membership money would be deducted that, I need to cancel and not to charge me anymore. He was arrogant, unhelpful and told me he cannot do that unless I give 30 days advance and that I would be charged for September. I understand that you have rules and that I have signed or agreed to fine print, but as I said there is something called unexpected events in life which are not really in anybodies control. So, if you're going to buy membership for this gym, please keep in mind that you need to inform him atleast 30 days in advance to cancel your membership. And also, he charges one month advance during your first payment and he says, he will use it for your last month when you decide to quit. So basically, if you decide to quit the gym, you need to give him two months advance notice so that he can cancel the following month and the last month is one your advance! Honestly, I would consider twice before buying a membership from this place. Don't be fooled by his sweet talk on your first visit. I have no complaints on the equipment, facility or the trainers or other members, they were good for what I have used and come across. I have had the worst experience with Stephen. I enjoyed my two years in Canada, expect for dealing with Stephan. I regret even doing business with him.
