Edgar Lemaitre MorenoThe gym is generally good; it's much bigger than it looks from the outside. It has a calisthenics and functional training area that's quite interesting, with lots of accessories to do any kind of exercise. The machines aren't new, but they all work and there's a wide variety. I haven't missed anything.

Bi BiGreat gym in the center of Basel. Has everything you need from rigs and racks to deadlift platforms to a ton of machines.
David MeyerI am a current long-time member of the club, and I am truly a fan. This club is great because it has a good location in a convenient part of town near to the city center. In addition to offering a variety of interesting classes, it has new and well maintained equipment. It is easy to see that the club focuses on staying up to date. Other main points for me are that the club is always clean, and the staff is always friendly and helpful. In fact, several times I was surprised about their fairness when handling sensitive issues. I would definitely recommend this gym.
Иван МатяшA very nice gym for the price. A big variety of equipment, friendly staff, everything is relatively clean.
