Inspire fitness Cabra reviews?

Hi there,

Anyone used this gym or classes? Any comments?

Should be a great facility but the staff are not interested and some are downright rude. The place is always dirty and the staff are more interested in their phones, diets and chatting than in their jobs. Don't get me wrong, it's not all bad but I don't feel comfortable working somewhere I don't feel like I belong, where the floor can get dirtier than the street outside and the lifeguards are interested in everything except the pool. Such a let down with the facility being so new.

I realise this thread is quite old, but I'll have to disagree with the above comment; I find the club to be very well kept overall, and very clean! If you think Inspire is dirty then I recommend avoiding 90% of the other gyms in the country!

Multiple very well-kept changing-rooms and showers, pool seems like a regular decent pool, great car park (yes this is important), decent (although limited) weights area, I don't do any classes but know quite a few people who speak highly of them, lots of spinning bikes/treadmills etc., sudoku on the bikes which is very important for consistency, good canteen / coffee shop type place in the reception area.

Regarding the staff, I've never had an issue. You'll see the odd personal trainer getting people to do some fairly crazy stuff, but that's been the case in most big 'health clubs' I've been to. Most of them are pretty good, one or two probably shouldn't be teaching noobs to lift, but overall for a big club it's graaand. Keep in mind it's a lot cheaper than a smaller private facility so the level of coaching will reflect that, moreso with some than others. Staff 'friendliness' isn't really something I lose much sleep over but they all seem plenty 'friendly' to me!

I Went to view the gym a couple of months ago and I was quite impressed with both the staff and the gym too. If I was looking for a gym, id definitely consider it being close by
