    it went downhill for a while, the jacuzzi wasnt working for months, the steam room is usually cold, the airconditioning didnt work for months either but they got that fixed. i'd check it out proper before u join. the manager was really pushing to get everything fixed in fairness to him but the owners are in the uk. the management and staff are great

    The rates I was given are
    6 months - €149
    12 months - €249
    15 months - €299 (I think)

    There was a nine month option as well which was about €200...

    They are full adult rates, not sure you could get it any cheaper as a student as that really is for nothing!!

    That's pretty cheap considering the Greenhills want €325 for 6 months.

    Thats mad, If your looking for something out that side of the city then it has to be the Radisson, the gym is quite small but the relaxation suite is amazing!! Pool, steamroom, lanconium, fog shower, outdoor hot-tub, male and female saunas and tennis courts!! The place is really clean to!!

    Think it was €275 for 6 months

    You can go for a free trial day, well worth it!!

    i was a member at UL for ages and am a member at JJB now. i go early in the morning 8.30am so theres rarely any waiting around for anything and the facilities are good.

    great value for money imo. Theres posers in every gym so dont mind people saying its full of bodybuilders etc. makes no odds (to me at least)
