if customer service is what you are looking for, like a polite acknowledgment or pleasant demeanor, you will simply not find it here. If you are looking to get a fair (very comparable to other places in Seattle that do the same thing for the same price) mani/pedi for $30, in a fairly clean nail salon, then this place suffices. My last experience there was having a 20 year boy tell me that although the sign on the door says that they close at 6pm on a Sunday, they are deciding to close early and would therefore not give my mother a manicure. I think he was especially rude when I politely asked for the service to be performed by one of the ladies working there. the fact that him and his homey swirling around in their chairs and were abrasive and nonchalant simply did not entice me to have him give my mother a half decent manicure. I am not sure if I would patron again, let alone recommend it wholeheartly...then again, you get what you pay for?

I have not used the day care facilities at any of these gyms, so I don't know how good they are, but I know they exist. In general the gyms are good and offer a variety of classes. I really like the yoga class with Astra at Northgate Express.
I have been a member for 10 years and have never had the price go up on my membership. However, since I joined before 24 hour fitness existed (it was Family Fitness back then) I have an "active" membership and can't use the "sport" clubs. I tried to upgrade but it was way to expensive, and definetly did not seem worth it.
Check out a club near you and see what they have to offer.

More 3 months ago
Previously I thought this facility 4/5 stars, but that was when I first joined the gym October '07 and had a personal trainer.
Then I contracted pubic lice from the locker room June 9.
Here is the reply I received from the club manager, emphasis between asterisks is mine:
James, I do apologize for the experience you have had in regards to the cleanliness of our facility. When do you notice the club looking the worst? I can assure you that we do go through and disinfect the locker room area twice a day and have a hourly check for any things that need to be taken care of right way, these type of activities would not build a habitat the lice would breed. I will look into this issue today and see if we have any signs that there are lice anywhere and then let you know. *I do know that we have not had any other instances in this club of lice in over a year that I have been here.* Again, I understand where this could be a very embarrassing and frustrating situation, so I will let you know what I find out when we look deeper in the club for signs of infestation. Let me know if there is anything I can do in the mean time!!
My reply:
Thank you for taking the time to respond. I've only used the facility in the morning hours. Several times I've used the equipment only to discover paper towels and/or disinfectant wasn't available for cleaning. Recently the club didn't have any soap in the locker room; how people were able to wash their hands after using the bathroom or take a shower after working out is unknown. I find your claim of sanitization efforts hard to believe when simple hygiene using soap and disinfectant solutions were not maintained at a satisfactory level.
My daily schedule consists of home, your facility, and my office. I can say with every confidence that both my home and office do not contain any possible access to infection.
You stated "I do know that we have not had any other instances in this club of lice in over a year that I have been here." Having experienced your facility since October of last year, with your own staff telling me they do not even use the showers, and having seen the ventilation shafts above the showers coated in layers of dust, I have every reason to conclude my contact with pubic lice is from your facility.

I have gone there for over 7 years. It is the best place I have ever been for yoga. I have also been to the Yoga Tree in Fremont for 2 Inscursion (sp) programs, but the experience was not nearly as good. If you can, try to get in a class instructed by Pin. I think it is random that he is there, but he can work wonders and is very dedicated to the practice too. Be sure to get there 15 minutes early as spots fill quickly. Parking is easy in the moring. Good luck !

I was sent to Borracchini's Bakery to purchase a cake for work a few years ago. Was I pleasantly surprised when I saw a gigantic bakery counter full of the things I remembered from New York's Little Italy. They have all sorts of things from eclairs to creme puffs to cookies to cannoli to cake. Moving on from the sweets, it is also a great Italian deli. I bought a slice of refrigerated pizza from the sandwich case, took it home and heated it up and it was so good!

The West Seattle yoga center is good - their floors are good. Their dressing rooms are big and nice, and there is a steam room / sauna for clients. The store has yoga equipment for sale. The teachers are professionals who are helpful. Overall this is a good place to practice yoga.
