Equipment
The gym features a pair of 10 kg dumbbells and a pair of 12 kg dumbbells. That’s it for weights. There’s a bench that adjusts for incline but because the back of the seat is not properly secured, you have to ensure it doesn’t slide out from behind you exposing the sharp metal framing beneath it, as it did to me multiple times. Not overly safe.
It had the “Big 3” for cardio machines (treadmill, elliptical, and stationary bike).
Does the hotel gym offer complementary towels? Yes,
Does the hotel gym offer complementary water? Yes.
Comments
I’ve seen some lightly equipped hotel gyms throughout the years, and although the gym at this particular hotel wasn’t the most lightly equipped, I have ever seen, it was certainly a skeleton list of available equipment.
For anyone looking to get a reasonable workout in that isn’t almost entirely a calisthenics-driven workout, you’re going to have to search around offsite. Luckily there’s a Goodlife gym not far from here. I’m not a fan of corporate gyms, but even less a fan of poorly equipped hotel gyms.
Based on the hotel gym, would you stay at this hotel next time you’re in the area?
Not sure – not recommended if fitness is important to you.
