Comments
It’s a small hotel gym with a limited range of equipment.
It’s clean and although it’s not possible to open any windows, there’s proper air conditioning.
There’s Wi-Fi and music playing on a TV.
Due to the COVID-19 situation, there’s a maximum capacity of three people. However, since it’s not really enforced and because of the limited space, it was difficult to do a proper workout while maintaining social distancing.
It would’ve been nice if there’d been a squat rack and some exercise mats. Ideally, they should also have heavier dumbbells.
Based on the hotel gym, would you stay at this hotel next time you’re in the area?
