Let’s walk you through a day at the not so fancy David Lloyd club Once you walk through the door ( if they manage to open on time) you would be very lucky if you get a “good morning” and you should feel even luckier if you get a nicely rolled towel. Usually the member of staff would roll a towel in front of you place it under the desk and hand you one from the plastic bag! The not so clean changing rooms feel like a sauna, the aircon is non existent, showers dirty and moldy , buckets laying around because the ac is leaking for months, toilets dirty and bins full… what a delight. May I add, having a hot shower is a gamble too. Then we go to the gym, the famous gym, where 30% of the machines are not working for months. However you should feel grateful if they are being fixed after 3-4 months and are not just being taken away, never replaced and the space where once was a machine becomes empty and sad. Cable clips are like unicorns … can never find one, also cable machines are out of order as they failed the H&S, the rowing machines must be also broken for a year now. Don’t expect to see staff on the shopfloor checking if machines are working or if is clean, that would be way above their pay grade. Gym in general is small and basic. Next stop, the luxurious spa! Don’t remember when it was the last time every facility in there worked, always something out of order. Steam room is not working for over a year now, is just a warm room, unless you put some water over the sensor then it becomes a torture room where the steam is so hot that it burns your skin, I guess some people are into stuff like this (each to their own). The hydro pool, again if you are into hurting yourself then that’s the best place, the numerous broken and missing tiles would do the trick! The sauna is the only pretty decent thing minus the blood stains on the ceiling, not sure what’s the story there. Luckily I’ve been watching Dexter and I can identify blood splatters! Outside pool and jacuzzi barely open , clean and available. More sun beds have been bought recently however on sunny days they have been kept away because is funny seeing members sitting on the concrete floor. Lifeguards are such a delight to look at, you can really see the excitement in their eyes for being there. You also get counted like sheep, no problem there, however most times the numbers are wrong as nobody bothers to take it seriously. Have I told you the spa was closed for 4-5 months to build a wall plus extra little bits ?!? I was convinced they were building the wall of china, but how wrong was I ! They also had the brilliant idea of removing the water fountain, is not like you need any water, water is so overrated! They also left us just with one shower, we all queue up like in the Covid days. Anyway, the area is always dirty and staff walk right past litter and broken tiles without even looking at them. Once a light post fell and 5 different lifeguards passed it, looked at it and continued doing their thing, great initiative! There was a flem all dried up right next to the hydro pool for a month without exaggeration, reported it on the day it happened, no actions until it became so dry that the water jets must have took it away. Also shows how often the pool area is being cleaned, yakes! And you end your lovely visit by saying thank you on your way out and being ignored by the staff members as they are either not interested or too busy gossiping with their colleagues. The manager is like a scaredy cat, nowhere to be seen. No matter how many feeeback forms you fill and request a call back you shall NEVER be contacted, even if you ask at the desk for the manager that would also be a big ask and will be told he will call you shortly, don’t hold your breath! Customer services, again no hope! Not interested in what you have to say and will advise you to cancel your contract! See I would, if that wasn’t the only gym next to home and work! However new big boy gym is in town, let’s see how many people will stay!

Advertised as a premium facility with a pool, tennis courts etc, I was eager to join David Lloyds. However management of the building and facilities is a complete shambles, especially with cleanliness and maintenance. I attempted to end my membership within one month only to be told I need to complete my 'initial term' of 12 months. Customer service is seriously lacking regarding any complaints or concerns and even attempting to cancel your membership is met with a cold and generic response by the membership team, who can only be contacted through email! And you can’t cancel unless you can provide evidence of medical recommendation, redundancy or moving! I spoke to reception and unfortunately they can’t assist either…That said, reception staff were lovely, empathised and understood my complaint regarding the cleanliness in the changing rooms (showers have mould, the ceiling is leaking) amongst other concerns and also emailed the membership team regarding cancellation but alas, I’m locked in paying nearly £90 a month for this! It’s a shame because staff are lovely who work on site, it’s the decision makers and external teams that are lacking, which in turn impacts the club and its members. But as long as the money keeps rolling in, who cares right? In conclusion, if you like paying for more than what you get, dirty showering facilities and awful customer service (directed at the membership team) - this place is for you. I regret joining, at least PureGym is actually clean! They said that it was the first time they’ve heard any concerns regarding the dirty changing rooms/facilities but judging by others who have reviewed, they absolutely have and still haven’t done anything about it. If customer service want to call me, please only call to cancel my membership, disappointing.
