点评:I have been using Bletchley Leisure Centre for around three years and have had a full membership for quite a long time. I currently pay around £36 per month, which I think is a reasonable price for the membership.
Importantly, it is not only me who uses the centre. My whole family uses the facilities regularly, so I have a good reason to want to see the centre maintained and improved.
The swimming pool itself is OK and I don’t have any major complaints about the pool. However, the changing rooms, showers and toilets around the swimming pool really need some attention. At times they are honestly quite disgusting and this is something that should be improved.
The biggest disappointment for me has been the closure of the squash courts. I was a regular squash player and used to play at least twice a week, and my wife also played squash with me. We were both very disappointed when we found out that the courts were being closed. From what I understand, there was no proper consultation with the regular squash players, and as far as I could see there was not even proper consultation with the council before the decision was made.
We were then told that Bletchley customers could use another leisure centre and receive a discounted squash court rate. This sounds reasonable, but when I actually travelled around 30 minutes by car to use the other centre, they did not know anything about the discount. I have already contacted the Bletchley Leisure Centre management about this, but so far I have not received any response.
The gym is one of the best parts of the centre. My 16-year-old son has a gym membership costing £30 per month and he is happy with both the price and the equipment. He also plays basketball at the centre once a week.
My younger son, who is six, trains with MK Breakers in the sports hall every Sunday. This costs me another £40 per month. I also take him swimming around once a week or every couple of weeks.
My wife decided to use PureGym instead of Bletchley for her gym membership. The main reason was the condition of the changing rooms and general maintenance. She found the changing rooms at PureGym much cleaner and the overall maintenance much better. If the changing rooms and general condition at Bletchley were better, she would probably use the gym here as well.
I personally use the sports hall once a week to play basketball as well. The hall itself is fine, but the main floor really needs to be cleaned more regularly. Particularly on Friday evenings, I have found the floor can be very slippery. This is a genuine concern because it increases the risk of someone slipping and getting injured. It feels like the floor simply isn’t being cleaned often enough.
So, as you can see, my family uses the centre quite a lot and we spend a reasonable amount of money on memberships, activities and sports. This is why I would like to see the management take more care of the facilities and, importantly, communicate better with their customers.
Overall, I think the centre has good facilities and the membership prices are reasonable, but there are several areas where the standard could be much better. The gym is good, the swimming pool itself is fine and the sports hall is useful, but maintenance, cleaning and communication with members need improvement.
As someone who has been a regular customer for around three years, I would like to see the management listen more to the people who actually use the facilities and address these issues.
翻译:我使用布莱切利休闲中心大约三年了,也长期持有其全会员资格。目前我每月支付约36英镑,我觉得这个价格对于会员来说还算合理。
重要的是,使用该中心的并不只有我一人。我的全家人都经常来使用各种设施,因此我很有理由希望这个中心能得到维护与改善。
游泳池本身还算不错,我对它也没有什么太大的怨言。不过……游泳池周围的更衣室、淋浴间和洗手间真的需要好好整治一下。有时候它们真的相当脏乱,这方面确实需要改进。
最让我失望的就是壁球场的关闭。我以前经常打壁球,每周至少打两次,我的妻子也和我一起打。当我们得知壁球场要关闭时,我们俩都非常失望。据我所知……并没有与常打壁球的球员们进行适当的协商;就我所见,在做出决定之前甚至也没有与理事会进行充分的沟通。
后来我们得知,布莱奇利地区的顾客可以使用另一家休闲中心,并能享受壁球场地使用的折扣价。这听起来挺合理的,但当我开车约30分钟前往那家中心时,他们却对所谓的折扣一无所知。我已经就此事联系了布莱切利休闲中心的管理层,但至今仍未收到任何回复。
健身区是该中心最出色的部分之一。我16岁的儿子每月支付30英镑购买健身会员资格,他对价格和器材都很满意。他每周还会在中心打一次篮球。
我6岁的小儿子则每周日在体育馆里跟随MK Breakers训练。这笔费用又让我每月多支出40英镑。我每周或者每隔几周也会带他去游泳。
我的妻子决定选择PureGym而不是Bletchley作为她的健身场所。最主要的原因是更衣室的状况以及整体的维护情况。她觉得PureGym的更衣室要干净得多,整体维护也做得更好。如果Bletchley的更衣室及整体环境能好一些的话,她可能也会选择去那里健身。我个人每周也会去一次体育馆打篮球。体育馆本身不错,但主场地真的需要更频繁地清洁。尤其是在周五晚上,我发现场地特别滑。这是个切实的担忧,因为它会增加有人滑倒受伤的风险。感觉上,场地根本没有得到足够的清洁。
所以,如您所见,。我的家人经常使用这个健身中心,我们在会员费、各类活动及运动项目上也花费了不少钱。正因如此,我希望管理层能更加用心地维护设施,更重要的是,能加强与会员的沟通。
总的来说,我觉得这个中心的设施不错,会员价格也合理,但仍有不少方面有待改进。健身房不错,游泳池也还可以,综合运动馆也挺实用的。不过,设施的维护、清洁以及与会员的沟通方面还有改进空间。
作为一个使用了大约三年的常客,我希望管理层能更多地倾听实际使用设施的人的意见,并解决这些问题。
