The gym smells terrible and there is no blue paper or wipe available to clean equipment. So 4 days after this review I got this email from pure gym: Please be aware that the monthly price of PureGym Bristol Union Gate is increasing from Tuesday 20th June, meaning you will no longer be able to access this gym. Let's hope this is coincidence.

Good gym at a low price. The gym has all the basic machines that you could need as well as a great area for loose weights and what they call a "functional" area which is also pretty good I guess. It has a mid to lacking amount of space compared to the number of users but all the equipment you need, maybe not everything you could want. The main issues are the AC system, that seems to break a lot and that they never seem to be able to fix, as well some machines being broken for rather prolonged periods. However other than those two gripes the gym does exactly what it's supposed to at a very reasonable price, would recommend.

Don't get me wrong, the staff and PTs are truly lovely and I have enjoyed training here for years now. However, two really serious problems are prompting me to leave this review: 1) the free weights area is utter chaos, with weight plates and dumbbells all over the place - surely something can be done to improve member etiquette? 2) the air conditioning system is either broken or stopped to save money; this, combined with the absence of open windows or fans, is a killer in summer months, and it's probably outright dangerous when people are training hard. Happy to amend or remove this review when steps are taken!

Overcrowded. There equipments broken down for 6 months. When this combined with insufficient equipment and overly populated gym, the workout becomes nightmare. The worst is though they turned down the ventilation system to save from energy bills and gym become so stuffy and smelly. Update (18/02/2023): none of the broken machines got repaired yet and on top of it the water fountain is broken more than two weeks now. I am in the gym right now and I would say the gym is occupied up to it’s 10% capacity yet it smells and the air feels so stuffy as the ventilation is not working properly in effort to save from energy bills. Update (25/02/2023): None of the machines got fixed. Water fountain is still broken. The air in the gym still stinks. On top of these, internet is gone too today 🤷🏻‍♂️ Update (04/03/2023): water fountain and the equipment is now repaired. Ventilation system back to normal again. Took 8 months but glad the gym is back to normal now. Update (18/03/2923): three more machines are broken now and the ventilation is not working for almost a week. It seems they can not keep things running normally more than a week!

Honestly a pretty good gym, classes are great and the staff are very friendly. However, a lot of the machines (cardio + resistance) have been out-of-device for a few months. Makes things even more difficult in an already popular/crowded gym.
