Nautilus Plus Gatineau

One of the worst if not the worst gym

The gym was ok. The staff behind the counter were especially unhelpful when me and friends were trying to pay. Their system was down and the manager didn't seem in a hurry to make us pay and stop wasting time. The one-time entry fee was huge - 17 bucks. Would not go again.

I've been going there for over 2 years now and the staff is great, friendly and polite, the locker room is always clean, and it's pretty much douchebag-free (pretty rare around here). The coaches are qualified and motivating :)

Very clean, well maintained professional gym. Great options in terms of personal trainers, therapeutic massage and nutrtionist. I'm 57 years old and require close attention if i'm to meet objectives efficiently and without injuring myself. Charles André (personal trainer) is very knowledgeable, methodical and invested in helping me meet my goals. Highly recommended

I would like to share my thoughts about this gym. Before I give a review, I would like people to know that I was in the military for nearly 20 years travelled around and I have worked out in more gyms than I can even count. This gym is poor at best. I am paying $92.00 per month (the boomerang fee) for a gym that has equipment as old as my grandmother. The shower area is terrible. The shower heads all spray out like they are broken, the shower curtain doesn't go all the way across and it only goes up to my knees. Therefore, if I drop the soap people get a eye full. They also do not have any private areas to change (I am a prude) I tried to change in the bathroom and its super tiny, where you need to walk out to change your mind. Back to the equipment, they have the old kaiser equipment that uses air, the concept was great about 40 years ago when two people were in a gym at a time. The rest of the equipment is the kind you must add plates to it. That wouldn't be so bad if they had lots of plates to go around, which they do not. You have to walk around trying to find plates all over the place. Next the cables, I am short so I cannot pull the cable down to adjust it. Usually there are feet steps attached to cable crossovers, but not here. I am at the mercy of anyone that is 4-5 inches taller than me to help. The benches, there are 4 benches!! That is it, so when its busy and you like the free weights, forget it you won't get a bench. The free weights are all banged up but they do, do they job. Cardio equipment - omg old again! The cardio equipment is from 20 years ago (which is a improvement from the 40 year old kaiser equipment). Every single piece although it works needs to be updated. I will give you another example of a issue, I use the elliptical. The first level is so hard I can't get past it! Trust me my cardio is good so for people just starting out you are f***. There is one place in the whole gym that has paper towel and cleaning supplies. Therefore, nobody cleans the benches or weight area. I have never paid so much to get so little. I have worked out now at three different gyms in Gatineau, all different and all had good points and bad. This is the bottom of the three and when my membership is up, I will not be back. I had written them and asked for a free trial for even one day and never got a response so when I joined I was somewhat in the dark. In closing, if you want to spend your money for a quality gym this is NOT it. Its getting a 2 star because they do have different interesting classes.

Second worst gym I've ever been to in my whole entire life. One of the people that works there was extremely rude to me at the counter when i wanted to buy a towel. Not friendly if you're gay.

the machines are already old air conditioning does not work

Great gym , with great people , if you have questions they'll help you . If you are new to working out I recommend it , been training basically everyday since .
