Éconofitness

Incompetent staff, noisy people who fail to understand simple gym etiquette and that pathetic excuse of a security guard (who really doesn't do much except for talking to girls). The staff (including that joke of a security guard) have absolutely no idea of how to interact with customers. While obviously not all of the staff members are bad, I've heard and witnessed some pretty surprising stories of straight up racism. I'm honestly surprised to see this location is still open. This said, the equipment is recent and the establishment is overall pretty clean, especially for its price. If you know what you're doing and can somehow avoid interacting with people at this gym, it's a fine place. If you have no idea of what you're doing and need actual help/competent staff, then you're out of luck. All in all, you really get what you pay for.

I am writing this review because no one will pick up the phone at this establishment, even though the staff assured me that the manager would be there today. The staff at the Ecofitness gym in Pont Viau, Laval are unprofessional and rude. Alexandra Desy is the manager.  Even if you are not working out hard enough to break a sweat, they will intimidate you and belittle you in front of people if you don't have a towel.  I am not unhygenic and it is wrong to bully members when you forget your towel for the first time. Staff can mention, to the client, to bring  a towel next time. Or if the person is very sweaty, ask them to pay for a towel. Demanding the client to come to the desk, when they have 8 minutes left in their routine and demanding, and I quote, "RIGHT NOW!" is disrespectful and not ok. Staff need to speak to members like normal human beings, not morons.  I did not use the bikes in the busy part of the gym because I saw how everyone was wiping the machines with wet towels. Wiping your machine with a sweaty towel does not clean a machine for the next person. You need a spray cleaner. So it is very hypocritical to talk to me about my personal hygiene when no one in this establishment is wiping down the machines on a regular basis. I think intimidating people about their towel, is a way to take the onus off the fact that this establishment is filthy and the workers here, are not taking the time to clean it properly. It is much easier to harass people then to clean the machines! They have decent machines, they just don't bother cleaning them regularly. The workers here,  think they can push people around. They told me to call the manager, and the manager won't pick up the phone.  This leads me to believe that Alexandra Desy  codones bullying. I should report this establishment to the better business bureau. Even if the cost of this gym is cheaper than other places, it does not mean that you can be disrespectful to members and bully them. My membership will expire in few short  months and I will never set foot in this gym again. For the next few months, I will be watching to see if others are being mistreated.   This is the worst gym I have ever been too. It doesn't deserve a star.

I should of known that a gym with a security guard was a sign to not get a membership there. One of most useless one as well. Does not help you when you have issue and blames someone attacking you outta nowhere as your fault. Worst place ever.

Cool cheap gym. There are new equipment. You cannot beat 12$ /month price. Worth every penny. Massage facility.
