This is a family owned and run business, but is in a large (1 acre) location, complete with swimming pool (shallow, half length), squash court and Ladies Only section. Largest gym in south east melbourne.
It has a nice naturally lit weights room, and a separate cardio room. The cable machine equipment is slightly dated and in need of reupholstery most of the time (think duct tape) but is more than adequate to train all body parts. Most of the members are friendly and not intimidating. Memberships are moderately priced, but they tend to upsell.
The downside to this place are the hours. Last I heard, it closes at 9pm (which is early by other gym standards, especially with 24 hour places popping up) 2pm on Saturdays and 12pm on Sundays. This makes it very inconvenient if you want to sleep in on the weekend, like any normal person would.
One other gripe, is that the water fountain is very unusually located towards the front reception (meaning you would have to walk outside of the weights area/cardio room to get a drink).
