Simply Gym Bedford

Great place for work outs!! Covid secure, everyone gets a clean rag and a disinfectant bottle on entry to use before and after using machines, free weights, benches and all other equipment in the gym. Social distance is enforced by deactivating other machines to maintain the 2 meter distance as prescribed by the health expects. Staff are very welcoming and friendly. Lots of free weights and machines, and variety of machines for a workout, you won’t need to weight for someone to finish their exercises to get your turn! There is no down time, effective!!! Great work out music you wont need your own music at all. The gym is also equipped with self service points to buy still water, health drinks as well energy drinks when you need a bit of energy to keep you going! Finally the gym is very clean neat and tidy. I absolutely loved it, recommend this to anyone looking for a gym.

This gym use to be good when first opened however it has gone downhill. Some of the female staff are rude. Rather than helping customers and putting customer service above everything they think they are self obsessed delusional. Often the staff are either on their phones or hide away from their job nowhere to be seen on hours. The equipment are also getting old and no one is replacing them. Even with a number of people complaining. There are better 24/7 gyms in Bedford I would explore.

Originally posted 4 stars but I've never had a bad experience here. All my interactions with the staff have been positive as they are very friendly and always happy to lend advice when needed. Good range of equipment also.

Been trying for a ages to gain access to a gym I paid for. Sent an email saying I will shortly receive an email with membership details, nothing for 2 days, tried calling, sent emails, no reply. Tried going to the gym but can't get past the gate without a membership number, lol.. Spent ages messing around with the online chat, only to be asked for a security number which 5 people can not find on the 3 emails that had been sent and yet they state it is on every correspondence they send. This company has a serious incompetent IT issue. Probably a good gym set up but has a usless IT and management department.

This is a good gym with ample equipment. Everyone that goes here is friendly and respectful of others. It has a good selection of free weights and machines. It has parking on the front and side where I've always found space compared to puregym in bedford heights where you can never find a space. A few areas where I think this Gym can improve: Be available on gymflex so that corporate employees can expense it. A new entry/exit system, the current one is clunky and sometimes causes tailbacks of queues as the machine sometimes doesn't recognise the pin maybe a fob or app scanner would work better here. A larger dedicated area for stretching and mat work. The current area is too small so you often see people doing pressups or stretching all over the gym they could open up one of the class rooms when not in use or add another floor, there is certainly enough room. Better maintenance of the structural internal walls, you can see cobwebs and mould in certain area. Lastly I would like to see more cleaning stations scattered around.

Nice place and environment for a workout programme or regime. Kudos Simply Gym for providing such service

Decent gym and good overall equipment. Only downfall is that they won’t allow me to use my gympin which allows me to add more weight on top of the pin loaded machines. I do not understand why? A gym pin is designed to allow for more weight to be put on top of the stack once you get to the bottom. Many people use it and nothing has happened to the machines. Please may I know why I cannot use my gympin if others can use them.

What a shockingly awful gym, wallahi, I've been to several gyms in Bedford. This is by far the worst, the equipment attached has been broken for over two months. There is such a small selection of gym equipment it's actually laughable. What is the management playing at, trapping us in a monthly contract, so we can stand there like a coconut tree waiting for 10 brothers to finish up with the chest machines. It's much worthwhile travelling to pumpsgym, or thegym who are actually actively putting in an effort to keep it refreshing and engaging. The whackest gym by far. Rather bench press my hoover.

This gym is filthy. Rusty machines, thick dust and dirt on racks, cobwebs all over the walls and old ripped benches and seat covers. I was a manager of a gym for a few years and it doesn't take much to keep the place clean.

Plenty of equipment, decent changing/shower facilities. Good classes.
