So on monday asked if the music could be turned down ,because the spin class seem to get priority over the whole gym ,yet again Saturday morning music absolute joke so loud again ,you have done nothing to address this ,obviously the spin class take priority, every one in the gym were ear buds ,so if the spin class want it so loud ask them to wear ear buds rather than blasting absolute rubbish full blast so the whole gym cant concentrate, this is not fair on the whole gym

Hi Jackson,
Thank you for your review!
We're sorry to hear that the music levels in the gym have negatively impacted your visits.
We understand that members use the gym for different reasons and that excessively loud music can make it difficult to focus on workouts.
We also recommend sharing this with our team or the duty manager on site, so we can assist with this at the time you've recognised the issue.
We also apologise if it feels as if your concerns haven't been addressed, and we'll be sure to share this with the wider team for further review.
Thank you again for your review!
Warm Regards,
Kaisha

The website is terrible and very muddled, especially navigating bookings.
The staff at the Hive are kind and helpful. However, I think that when a person is first joining a class it would be helpful if they were aquainted with protocol maybe not of the staffs making but of some of the cliche clientel, who made me feel uncomfortable.

Big cleanliness issues!
I've asked repeatedly for improvements to the overall cleanliness of the centre -- which at best is patchy, at worst, terrible. The showers are usually dirty, with hair stuck to side screens (even very first thing in the morning) and the dust levels on top of rails and lockers reveals a consistent lack of deep cleaning. Some aspects have been broken now for months and months -- the sound system and air con in the changing rooms (especially important in these heat waves!), the sound system in the pool, and general signs of maintainence defects. The whole place needs a good overhaul, and very deep clean. We pay hard earned money for use of the facilities, and are fed up with being constantly gaslit re things improving. The tidemark around the waterline in the pool is just one example of how bad things have become...

People can't actually use the facility as it is.
The classes I need for my therapy are always booked and near impossible to get in. The classes don't have
any distinction between expert and beginner. There is only one of each strength training equipment but too many cardio machines. To make the fitness center better I suggest breaking down the classes by experience level, offering more class by doing it that way, and replacing some of the cardio machines with strength training to make it more balanced.

Hi James,
Thank you for your review!
We’re sorry to hear that you’ve been finding it difficult to access the classes you need, particularly as they are an important part of your therapy.
We apologise for any frustration caused by the popularity of these sessions amongst our Healthwise members.
Your suggestion around offering classes by experience level is really helpful, and we're more than happy to share your comments with the wider team to review this further.
We also appreciate your comments regarding the balance of equipment on the gym floor.
Thank you again for raising this with us!

My opinion
I love the staff there who are so nice and caring however, there are kids my age 13 who are constantly blocking off equipment and saying they are using it when they are actually on their phones and they were giving me and my dad weird looks which I found quite uncomfortable especially elderly.

Confusing, irritating company
Better has a way of making every interaction as complicated and unhelpful as possible. The website is terrible and has built in bugs which never go away despite persistent emails explaining the flaws. The booking process is cumbersome. The site map is as confusing as possible. There is no way of getting through to anyone at an actual centre; only national customer service emails. Local employees are enslaved to a tyrannical system which takes away all agency and turns them into automatons.
So many frustrations with them over the years it would take pages to describe them all.
Having said all that, they get two stars for having taught (albeit slowly and expensively) my children to swim.
