Unfortunately I went to this place on my Birthday and I specifically didn't want a "gym-like" experience. Well it totally is. I even asked before I came to ensure that I would have a relaxing spa experience! When I arrived 1/2 an hour early to sauna before my massage the girl let me just sit there, no offering of water or where to go for the 1/2 an hour. Finally I asked about their sauna which the girl said I could "after my massage". But when I informed her that I was early she told me it was "upstairs". After telling her I had never been there and I didn't know where to go "please help!!" She pointed me up to the gym. YUCK! I was almost run over by some meat-heads and the ditzy girl @ the gym desk took 3 people before me while I stood there and watched! She said she assumed I was going to the locker room. But guess what I had NO CLUE where to go! It was such a nightmare I canceled all my appointments on the spot and went home. When I canceled the girl didn't looked at all fazed she didn't even apologize! Luckily after I got out of there my birthday was the best I ever had! I know its cliche but after the bitter the sweet never tasted so good!

The staff at the club is friendly and helpful and the cafe is a gem. Soups & salads made from scratch with a healthy approach makes it not only convienent but delicious. The addition of the Point Spa is a real treat. Janet gives the best massage I've ever had. A+ all around.

Pros: Food, parking, childcare

Cons: Decor, needs more classes
