Im with you there. All of my best gains have been at YMCAs and other filthy gyms that mortals dare not enter.
My favorite in the states was one that used to be a 4 bay auto service station.
Stunk like hell and I miss it to this day.
popped my head into snap fitness in hampton. they got 1 oly bar, 1 smith, 1 oly bench.
bunch of plate loaded and pin loaded machines, couple of concept2 rowers, spin bikes and 4 or 5 treadmills.
not bad for around $10 a week... not good if you're looking to powerlift...

strathpine one in brisbane qld has 2 flat bench press setups and i think a incline one but cant remember lol was only there wednesday on free trial. they also have a 2 sided rack of fixed barbells but havent really looked at the weights they go to.
seen a couple of people taking the bar off the bench and bent over rowing it and 1 guy doing deadlifts but light ones. also overhead pressing when a PT is there which ive herd is a big no no in that type of gyms usually and ya get told not to.
1 smith machine. no power racks.
my theory is that in low traffic times ya can do what ya want. but in peak time i dont think theyd want ya doing overhead press in there anywhere and probably wouldnt like ya taking a bar off the bench for deadlifts or anything other than bench pressing
