Comments
It’s a nice little hotel gym which offers nice views and good lightning.
 
However, there is no air conditioning, only a small fan. The windows do open which helps a little bit but then insects also get in. There’s also no cleaning station making it impossible to clean down equipment after use.
 
The cable machine is a bit worn-out and the range of motion on the lat pull-down isn’t great – it’s terrible on the leg press.
 
Based on the hotel gym, would you stay at this hotel next time you’re in the area?
Not sure.
