Introduction
The purpose of this report is to assess the positive and negative points of the Bayside Sports Centre.
Facilities
There is a wide range of facilities available. In addition, the equipment is all new and modern. However, there are not enough exercise machines, the customers have to wait a long time.
Prices and Opening Hours
The sports centre is open seven days a week from 10 am to 10 pm, which is very convenient. However the prices are not very competitive and there are no special offers available.
Staff and service
All the instructors at the gym are well trained. What is more, there are sufficient staff to meet the customers’ needs. On the other hand, the staff are not very friendly. In addition, they are rather slow to help when asked.
Conclusion
My overall impression is that there is much room for improvement. All in all, I would not recommend the Bayside Sports Centre unless they lower their prices and improve their service.
