Loads of machines. Never had to queue for more than 30s for something. Good classes too at a very reasonable price

If you are visiting from overseas, don't bother going to EasyGym. Oh yes, it is nice and close to the rail station and to the hotel I was staying at (Burlington MacDonald). Very short walk! But I get there, having seen that they have the Concept2 rowers I wanted to use, and they inform me that they don't take cash, only cards. Well, OK, I guess, would be nice to have that on the website, but I walk back to my hotel, get my card, and come back. Now I have to fill out a form on the computer. I get to the billing address which, it says, must match the credit card details. However, it won't accept my postal code because, of course, I'm from the US, not the UK. The guy at the front desk just scratches his head, I throw my hands up and just walk out. Clearly, they don't want day pass visitors from the local hotels, so don't bother.

Decent equipment and plenty of it. No-stress atmosphere. Sensible price. Showers aren't great.

For the price you pay, you can't go too wrong with this gym. There is so much equipment that you rarely have an issue using whatever you want to (unless perhaps you go after 5pm during peak hours, I actively avoid that). I tried Pure Gym on Broad Street and it pales in comparison to easyGym.
Only downsides are that the showers have been out of bounds numerous times this year and each time they'll email to assure us that this time will be the last time. One time they emailed everyone with a code so that friends could join with no joining fee as a way to make up for the lack of showers... How does that help me? The other main downside is that the classes are done in the middle of the gym and, while this isn't usually a problem, one of instructors always cranks the music up full blast and will constantly shout into the PA system and sing along. Even if you've got headphones on, you don't stand a chance; it's so loud that you can still hear her over your music and it's very distracting and annoying.
Other issues have been mentioned in other reviews: limited number of barbells, and the number of people that leave weights lying around. There are signs up telling people to return weights but it isn't enforced at all.
Overall, it's a great gym and the location in the city centre is ideal. It's a shame that these small issues spoil what could be a perfect gym.
