Having belonged to numerous gyms over the last decade or so, Universal is by far the best (in almost every way).
But there was an upper area where the kids could play basketball that they had locked off. When I ask the staff about it they told us lies because they didn’t feel like being up there to supervise while kids played. It was three lady staff and they were to busy standing around talking to do their jobs for paying customers. Lazy staff poor customer service. Also in the play area there was large areas where the padding was missing on the ground and bare concrete exposed , very dangerous.
- If you wish to leave them gym it's as simple as telling them you want your membership cancelled, then it's done with (not like most gyms that literally won't let you leave/quit due to a "legal agreement".
- The pool is perfect for both avid swimmers and families just wishing to relax (swimming lanes and a "free to do what you want" area.
- The Locker rooms/sauna/showers are really nice and aesthetically pleasing
They've thought of everything. The warming pool has allowed me to postpone knee replacement indefinitely. Clean, open feeling, hi speed wi-fi, ... they even have a little bridge game on Monday afternoons.
- The machines and weights are regularly upgraded to the newer models (they do keep a few of the older models around for the older customers who can't quite figure new tech)
- The staff/workers are very polite and friendly
- It's kept insanely well clean (you'd think the place had just been built)
- The parking lot is way to small for the number of members (if you go in the morning 8-12am or around dinner time 5-8pm, chances are you'll have to park on the grass or a nearby parking lot)
- The locker rooms are bit too small for the number of members they have
Friendly and helpful staff members make Universal my top pick for an all out fitness center. This is a excellent place, there’s something for everyone at Universal Athletic Club. The cost is very affordable considering what you get with their memberships. Also very clean and neat (not your typical gym).
Pros:
Just brought my kids to the kidnasium. It was ok.
- It's cheaper than other gyms (for most people this is the most important)
- If you have kids (I don't but I take care of my friends kids while she's at work sometimes) Universal has an area just for kids as well as programs and exercise lessons (Plus they do birthday parties)
- The trainers and classes are amazing (you'll actually want to take them)
Cons:
Can't get swol here. Go to planet fitness. They don't judge you for squeezing the cream from Twinkies into your mouth and throwing away the rest while deadlifting.
