    TF is meant to be I think but they don't have a lift/ramp to get to the mens changing rooms which you have to go upstairs to access. This also means that you can't use any of the machines/studios upstairs.

    THE NAC is deffo wheelchair accessible, male and female changing rooms are on the ground floor and there's a lift up to the gym floor.

    Is there not a lift there somewhere?? I thought I saw two guys who were too obese to take the stairs use it? Maybe I'm imagining it though.

    As much as I hate recommending them Crunch Westmanstown has all the dressing rooms on the ground floor and a lift to the second level. They royally pissed me off but I wouldn't like to see you stuck.

    You can get into the male changing rooms in TF via the ground floor guys.

    you go thru the door to the right of the female changing room that leads to the pool, and then in thru that way. you're not supposed to use it, but I imagine they'd have no choice. That being said, there's a set of toilets just inside the door - ladies, gents and wheelchair accessible. It may be the case that the changing room's in there. It's hardly ideal, but better than nothing.

    You might struggle to get a parking spot at the door tho cos there's a lot of dickheads in there who seem to think they've every right to do whatever the **** they want (you won't really struggle, there's maybe 10 spots, but on the average night 6-8 of them might be filled by inflated egos and imaginary lats).
