A good fitness center, everything is clean and tidy. A large gym, many different exercise equipment. I usually go on weekdays in the evenings - there are no crowds of people, there are no queues for simulators, I comfortably use my permanent simulators, sometimes I can wait a minute, if necessary, until the simulator is free.
I am mainly attracted to the Russian sauna (that is, the spa area) here. The temperature there is decent, but steam is supplied automatically all the time, so the humidity is quite high. I only use it.
There is also a Finnish sauna, it is dry, and something else - like a hammam (it is described in more detail on their website, you can study it if necessary).
And plus there is a steam room, as it usually happens in a hammam - it is warm and the humidity there is very high, steam. I go there sometimes too, I love it.
Finally, the spa has now made a normal shower. Previously, there was some kind of pampering with singing birds, it was not regulated, it was warm all the time, after the sauna you can't get cold water.
And recently we made one of the showers with ice water. That's why I started going there, because I had a puzzle: exercise equipment, a hot sauna and a cold shower (or rather, an ice shower, which is even better). Then there is a comfortable relaxation area with sun beds.
And I really want to praise the girls at the reception. Everyone is as good as they come - nice, polite, quick-witted, ready to help if there is a problem. They quickly sorted out my problem, and one girl started solving it, then she left, but the other picked up the topic and solved everything perfectly. How I love this service! Thanks to those who select the staff)
In general, everything is thought out, comfortable, thanks to those who organized it all)
I visited only the SPA areas. I haven't been to the gym.
The condition of the SPA area is terrible. Firstly, the changing rooms that belong to the SPA are not used at all. Because there are camera-sized lockers for things in the store. And there are no showers in the changing rooms. Therefore, even the administrator herself immediately took us to the common locker rooms, which also relate to the gym. She said it was impossible to use the SPA's changing rooms. As a result, there are simply no people in these locker rooms, empty rooms.
Secondly, and the most disgusting thing is that in two wet saunas it is impossible to wash the seats and walls with a hose. In one sauna, the hoses are hanging, but they don't work. One of the visitors said that in all 3 years of his premises they had never worked. In another sauna there are outlets for hoses, but there are no hoses themselves. As a result, it is impossible to sit if you do not want to catch cystitis, and in the Roman sauna there are many sweat stains on the walls from the backs of visitors. Not only can't you wash it yourself, but I think the workers don't wash it either. Because the hoses don 't work 🤢
Thirdly, there are 3 showers in the SPA area for washing after the steam rooms. 2 warm and 1 cold. There was a notice on one of the warm ones that it was not working. The second warm one just didn't work. And only the cold one worked. As a result, after the steam rooms, you can't wash properly if you don't want to stand under icy water. And I remind you that the walls and seats in the saunas are covered in sweat that you couldn't wash off.
I would also like to see water coolers, but there was no such thing. But they sell bottles of water at the reception.
There are few alternatives in Gomel, so the owners of the center do not try
