We need realistic housing that matches quality of life, not adding unnecessary features and marketing to maximize profit from housing.

EN: Why did you switch back? Sincerely, someone considering switching from MOVATI to FitforLess. Thanks! - Nowadays Fit4less is better than Movati... no doubt. But yeah, the old Fit4less location was disgusting. (4)
EN: Fit4less is better than Movati these days... Hands down. But yes, the old Fit4less location was disgusting. - I'd keep it. I've been to the new one, they definitely invested more in the cage area, with multiple squat racks and more machines and dumbbells. I guess to attract people to become black card members. Movati is good, but I think the new cage area in Fit4Less is currently above Movati. The locker rooms are a bit weird, but that's how many gyms are built now. (3)
