I have been using Kingley St Fitness First for about 10 months now. The main selling point is its location 3 minutes from my office.

As gyms go it is quite average. It tends to be very crowded during the week, especially in the afternoons and evenings.

The equipment is adequate and generally in good working order, although be prepared for a wait for benches during busy times.

However it did take them several weeks to repair the broken water fountain - quite an inconvenience being summer.

Avoid using the lockers at all costs. Shady characters blatantly have a master key, because I had my wallet and phone stolen from my LOCKED locker twice in two weeks, in the couple of minutes I was in the shower.

Needless to say I either leave my valuables at the office, or take them in the shower if I cycle in of a morning.

On the positive side I find most of the staff very pleasant to deal with, and I have never had any issues with fellow patrons.
