I know that work out rooms are generally on lower floors. So, that alone, is a big no no for me.
Three benefits over the free gym thing for me:
1) I don't have to pack workout clothes or tennis shoes.
2) The gym in the peachtree means a long elevator ride and walk in both directions...it's not real quick.
3) If I'm staring at weights, I generally lift them. So I might get a workout in when I otherwise wouldn't bother with the gym.
