I like nice gyms but a 45lbs plate is a 45lbs plate anywhere you go.

     true,  but gyms also have an atmosphere which sometimes help with motivation and general enjoyment of the experience

I agree with you. I have worked out in some hotel hell holes during vacation and made the best of it telling my self a 45lbs plate is a 45lbs plate no matter where you go. Only temporary maintenance on vacation. Once trained in a hotel gym the size of a closet. Biggest dumbbells were 25lbs.  High rep day.  ;D Where is that gym in the photo you put up?  Looks amazing.

Unfortunately not. It's got a good reputation but I never made it there. I did visit Jersey Shore Fitness a few times when I was working in the area.
