Nothing more than ok, 3 stars just because of the space, the changing room, the parking space outside and the distance from my house, for the rest, very very old machines a lot of them you don't even know why they still there in 2021/22🤔 😅 maybe because of covid🤣. Winter time super cold inside, no sign of heaters or air conditioning systems a part from big ventilation systems there is one small heater in the changing room and guess what? They keep blocking the door of the changing room always open with stopper maybe with hope of warming up the whole fitness area 🤔🤣 cherry on the cake, it's been almost 3 weeks that the showers haven't been cleaned up, there is always the same piece of paper in the corner from at least 2 weeks as you can see in the picture!

I have been a member since 2016. Walking distance from my house and pretty convenient to those living in the East Village area. Things have changed a lot. More equipment and spacious too! It’s definitely a decent spacious gym with lots cardio, free weights area and areas for stretching in the middle. Good booking system with Covid controls, the gym doesn’t get too overcrowded certainly not in the morning from my experience. Great staffs and also personal trainers. There are classes available although they may not be as many as other gyms but would say good enough. During this Covid, lots of hand sanitisers, disinfects and paper towels which is great deal to keep every single equipment clean! 👍👏 Only suggestion, weekend opening if it can be made earlier by 7am instead of 8am would be a great one. Other than that, keep on the investment in the gym!

I have just joined recently. Only positive feedback so far. Staff is more welcoming than in any other gym I have been before in the area. Huge space and a great selection of equipment.

Review 1 - 4 stars based on initial first impression: Can get a bit crowded, equipment not very well maintained.. Review 2 - 3 stars after 3 weeks of going to the gym The gym has had significantly reduced working hours (if it worked at all) around the xmas holidays - I'm still not sure why i have paid a full month given that i wasn't able to attend for 1/3 of the month. The gym gets VERY over-crowded, there is lots of equipment in poor condition, the flooring in the weight section is of poor quality. All in all, significant lack of maintenance throughout. You are unable to use lockers for free either. Changing rooms aren't in the greatest state either. For what it is - 36 pounds is too much.

G. U.

No proper equipment for lower body, most of the machines are focused on upper body. They don’t even have a proper universal cable machine or smith machine. Would appreciate if they could introduce more variety

m.

HIIT training session was excellent, fully packed right from start to end. Kept me breathless and endurance tested throughout. Excellent facilities, well delivered, clear with demonstrations, kept attention on everyone making sure working hard at all times. Overall excellent

J. M.

Best gym!! :) I really enjoy Pilates and boxing. And all the staff are lovely!! Specially Ramon and Wafa.

K. S.

This is a great facility - the classes are excellent [great instructors, music, and equipment]; and the gym floor equipment is modern & well laid out

A.

Having previously gone to the gym near where I work, I started going here post-lockdown and really like it. Very big and spacious with good equipment. Sometimes the free weights are can be busy but not sure there is a gym worth its salt where that doesn't happen. My only suggestion would be, can you stay open an hour later to 11pm? This would be useful for avoiding the last minute rush to get in before (the quite early time of) 915pm.

M. H.

Good value and range of equipment, you have to use a QR code to get in which means you need a phone and mobile signal/WIFI which can sometimes be a little unreliable but staff have usually been around to help

s. w.

Friendly staff, clean, lots of cleaning kit avaliable for you to disinfect everything. Definatly join if you live nearby and it's right by the Stratford International dlr station

D. S.

It's a good gym. Good instructors too.

c. c.

Amazing environment.The staff tar supper helpful. The gym is beginner friendly.The equipment is clean and easy to use.

K. S.

I loved this gym. I used to go everyday before I moved houses 3 years ago. After work the gym got quite packed, so I started going in the morning before work when no-one was there. The gym was new at the time, the staff were very friendly and helpful and they had a lot of activities such as spinning classes, weightloss classes, etc.

D. H.

Great gym. Equipment is plentiful and not too crowded even at peak times. Atmosphere is friendly and the radio is ad-free which is a blessing. The gym is right on top of a sainsburys for snacks after. Overall a very nice place to work out. If they could improve on one thing, It would be the lockers. They cost 20p each time which adds up. In other better gyms you use your membership card.

J. D.

A great gym: cheap, well equipped, clean. The client base is clearly increasing as new residents come into the Olympic village and the gym is responding proactively with new weight equipment to prevent queues building for equipment. My only gripe would be that staff aren't nearly hard enough on other members who don't put weights away. It's often a complete mess at the end of the day.

Y.

Good gym, lets of space and equipment. Have never had to wait for a machine or rack. Issues I have: - You have to pay 20p everytime you want to use a locker - There is just one private cubicle in the showers, the rest is just a big open room full of showers

V.

This is a very well equipped, large gym with a great variety of equipment in the functional training area. The facial recognition entry system works very well so entering the gym is much quicker than at other gyms that I’ve been to. The first drawback for me is that the lockers are not free, 20p is a small amount but every other gym I’ve been to returns the money you pay for the locker, and does mean that if you want to get something from your locker in the middle of your workout you will have to pay again. Additionally, the gym is just nearly always too busy.

E. M.

A well equipped gym, with lots of machines, which are unfortunately not well maintained. There is also no air conditioning, meaning it gets very hot in the summer. It seems Better is keen on continually buying new equipment for the gym, which is laudable. However, a lack of maintenance means that in particular their rowing machines are often either out of order or very clunky. There are lots of machines, which means that even though it can get very busy, one rarely needs to wait. The lack of air conditioning in the summer is good for those training for the Marathon des Sables, but not the best for an enjoyable workout.

S. Q.

Nice gym with plenty of equipment. The free weight section gets busy around lunch time. I shower in my office so don't know how well they are kept here. Staff looks bored and disconnected as they are on their mobile phone most of the time

O. R.

Could be a really good gym but three machines are not very well maintained. The rowing machines are all in especially poor condition, apart from one (JR3). I have no idea why these never appeared to be serviced in the approximately two years that I used this gym.

A. B.

I joined better gym few months ago after being a member in Gym box , and must say this gym is overall good. I'm giving 4stars only because there are missing more machines like stair machine and cable machine which can be used for legs as well.

C. L.

It looks like your box standard gym. Broken equipments get repaired/ replaced pretty fast compared to other gyms I'd been to which costed 3x as much. This placed isn't as busy as other after work hour gyms. I managed to lose 2stones / 10kg in about 6 weeks. It gets the job done :)

A. P.

Great gym. Work out a good sweat, meet some great boxers, decent fee to pay, upon entry. Brilliant to be able to bring my own boxing gloves, friendly atmosphere. Was here, just over a year ago, hope to be back again, sometime soon too.. Kind Regards, Anil Patel.

S.

Pretty average. Conventient location. 24/7 opening hours would be better for the price you pay, and paying 20p for a locker every time is a bit of a joke (FYI, if you leave stuff in the cloakroom it might get taken - from personal experience). Avoid going during the spin class hours. They play this awful music so unnecessarily loud in the middle of the main work out area that you can’t hear your own music on your headphones and just gives you a massive headache. Very off putting - I leave whenever they start. On the plus side, the yoga classes are wonderful.

D. G.

excellent gym. loads of machines. loads of free weights, 3 squat racks. Facial recognition thing finally works well 👍 Only complaint is it shuts quite early on weekends.

a. k.

Good value local gym. Maintenance is a bit slow though, there are some machines that have been switched off for more months than I can remember. Staff are very friendly.

J. B.

Tucked out if the way, this is one of the less busy gyms in East London. It's reasonably well equipped and easily accessed from Stratford International. Plus, when you go home you can pick up some shopping at the Sandburg's next door!

R. P.

This gym has a lot of kit but no horizontal cable machine which is annoying. The actual gym is great but the changing rooms are disgusting!

K.

Decent gym and equipment though I do prefer 24 hour gyms. Also there isn't a Smith machine or adjustable lower cable machine.

T. A.

Very nice gym with plenty of equipment and space. However, evening hours are not great as it closes at 10pm on weekdays and even earlier on weekends

A. B.

Cheerful and knowledgeable staff and trainers. Great kit all round. 4 squat racks, fame, machines, dumbelss and cardio zone! Recommend!

A. H.

Nice and clean. Could do with more squat racks but that’s only because it’s fairly busy most of time. Nice layout too.

d.

Nice gym. Facial recognition system is very handy. Lots of machines. Decent ventilation.

P.

Decent enough better gym. Great for lunchtime or morning workouts. Can get busy

W. C.

Worth the money, great equipment, good booking system so rarely overcrowded

H. K.

Average gym, I've heard the classes are good, but the mens showers are communal!

J. M.

Love this place however this place could benefit from extended opening hours i.e. closing a bit later during weekdays and weekends (they close at 5pm during weekends). Plus during peak hours this place is super busy (which makes me believe this place is over subscribed and more reason to extend current opening hours!)

T. V.

Basic gym, which can get very busy. Facilities are quite basic but so is the monthly fee.

T. R.

Very nice place to work out, fair price and classes included in the fee. Don't expect the staff to be too friendly though

A. A.

Alright gym. For the price they charge, I would have expected more maintenance and a better outlook, but it has the basics and that is important.

K. M.

Home away from home. Been going here for 4 years now all the staff and members are extremely helpful and supportive. Made great friends here too!

M. D.

Great gym facilities but what annoys me are the payed lockers (you have to pay 20p every time you use them).

K. L.

Large gym with plenty of facilities and weight machines friendly staff and not overly busy during peak hours!

S. F.

A quiet and convenient place for working out. A longer opening time especially during weekend would make it a better place.

S. F.

Very nice gym. A lot of space for exercise. Bright and clean.

N. C.

Well-equipped, no-frills gym at a very affordable price.

I don’t give them five stars because the toilets and changing room are smelly, otherwise I would.
