Superb gym, friendly staff and members and the only gym I've been in 35 plus years where 99% of people put their weights away. It seems to be an unwritten rule at Thrive Bolton and it makes a massive difference. Members seem to have a lot of respect for the place. Great selection of weights and off peak times are very quiet. If I'm being picky some of the cable machines near the windows are a bit sticky and not very smooth. And the showers are of the open plan type if you like your privacy. Music could do with a bit of variety..However it still gets 5 stars from me and it's a pleasure to train there. Best gym in Bolton.
