The Tumen location, in the city center, was a letdown from the get-go. The interior's dark gray tones and dim lighting make it look like a garage, not a gym. I had a hard time figuring out where to go and who to talk to, and the staff wasn't exactly helpful. The manager seemed put off by my presence, and I got the feeling I was interrupting something.
