Article II.

What this place is & what you get

  1. This is a private, fully automated, staff-free gym built for individual strength and conditioning workouts.
  2. You can only get in with a prior online booking and payment for a specific time slot.
  3. Capacity & pricing tiers:
    1. The space fits 1 to 4 people max per time slot.
    2. There are two pricing tiers:
      1. 1 – 2 person tier (up to 2 people at once),
      2. 3 – 4 person tier (up to 4 people at once).
    3. Bringing in more people than your slot covers is strictly forbidden.
  4. Slot length:
    1. A standard slot is 70 minutes — that covers arriving, changing, working out, cleaning up and leaving.

Article III.

Getting in, registering & the GYMIFY booking system

  1. Booking & access: Entry is self-service via an electronic access system — scan the QR code at the door reader, or enter the PIN generated in the GYMIFY app.
  2. Age limits:
    1. Only people 18 and over can enter and use the gym on their own.
    2. Under-18s (kids and teens) can only come in and train with a responsible adult supervising them the whole time (a parent/guardian or another adult they've authorised), who takes full legal and financial responsibility for them.
    3. Right to verify age: If we suspect an unaccompanied minor got in (spotted via CCTV), we can ask the main account holder to prove the visitor's age. Refusing, or misusing the booking system, gets the account blocked immediately.
  3. Main account holder's responsibility & headcount:
    1. Whoever created and paid for the booking (the main account holder) can bring along others — but only up to the number covered by their tier (max 2 people total for the 1–2 tier; max 4 for the 3–4 tier).
    2. Letting in more people than paid for counts as unauthorised entry and a serious breach of these Rules (checked via CCTV), which lets us charge the price difference or block system access.
    3. The main account holder must brief everyone training with them on these House Rules.
    4. The main account holder is fully responsible for everyone who came in with them, including any damage or rule-breaking.
  4. No letting strangers in: Letting in anyone outside your registered group is strictly forbidden (no sharing codes with strangers, no tailgating).

Article IV.

Hygiene & facility standards (the legal requirements)

  1. Water & drainage: The space is connected to the public water and sewage system, with a constant supply of cold drinking water and hot water.
  2. Bathroom facilities: There's a private bathroom with a flush toilet, sink and shower, with a constant hot and cold water supply. It's always stocked with toilet paper, liquid soap, paper hand towels and a touch-free bin.
  3. Changing room: The changing room has lockable lockers, coat hooks and a bench for changing and safely storing your clothes and shoes while you train.
  4. Ventilation & heating:
    1. Air exchange and climate control happen through natural ventilation — a balcony window and a tilt-and-turn door that opens for airflow.
    2. Heating runs through central heating radiators.
  5. Lighting: There's sufficient artificial lighting that meets hygiene standards.
  6. Cleaning & sanitation:
    1. Daily cleaning (at least once a day): Wet mechanical cleaning and disinfection of floors, the bathroom (toilet, sink), touch surfaces and equipment, plus restocking supplies and emptying bins.
    2. Weekly deep clean (at least once a week): A full deep clean of the whole space — mirrors, thorough disinfection of all vinyl and metal surfaces on the machines, wall panels, and a full sanitation of the technical and entry areas.
    3. Disinfectants: We use certified disinfectants with virucidal and bactericidal action on surfaces and equipment, rotating products with different active ingredients regularly to stop microorganisms building resistance.
    4. Storage: Cleaning supplies, disinfectants and cleaning tools are safely stored in a separate, permanently locked utility room that customers can't access. Reusable cleaning textiles (mops, cloths) are washed and disinfected off-site.
  7. Waste management: The gym and bathroom have touch-free bins with disposable plastic liners. Bins are emptied and disinfected at least once a day. Municipal waste is disposed of under our contract with the building manager/city.
  8. First aid: A clearly marked first aid kit, stocked to current Slovak health authority standards, is kept in the changing room. We check and restock it regularly.
  9. Equipment condition, checks & maintenance:
    1. Daily check: We do a daily visual check of the equipment's condition and function during daily cleaning.
    2. Weekly technical check (once a week): We do a detailed technical inspection of all mechanical parts (steel cables, pulleys, pins, bolted joints, carabiners, safety stops and upholstery condition).
    3. If something breaks: If we find any fault, wear, or a machine acting up in a way that could be unsafe, we take it out of service immediately and clearly mark it "OUT OF ORDER" until it's fixed or replaced.
    4. Professional servicing: Regular servicing and inspections follow each equipment manufacturer's guidelines.

Article V.

Safety & using the equipment

  1. Clean shoes, please:
    1. Only clean, non-marking indoor sports shoes (not worn outdoors) and suitable workout clothing are allowed in the space.
    2. Take off your outdoor shoes before entering — there's a doormat by the entrance for that.
    3. Walking around on the gym floor in dirty outdoor shoes is strictly forbidden. Training barefoot or in socks is at your own risk, and only in the stretching/bodyweight zone.
  2. Towel & wiping down:
    1. For hygiene, bring your own clean towel and put it down between you and any bench or padded surface.
    2. After using a machine, wipe down the contact surfaces with the disinfectant and paper towels provided.
  3. Handling equipment & weights:
    1. Check before you start: Before using any machine, bench or piece of equipment, give it a quick visual and functional check — make sure safety pins and weight pins are fully and properly seated, check the cables, tighten any locking collars on barbells, and make sure everything's stable. If you spot a fault, loose part, or anything acting weird, don't use it — report it to us right away (call or text our emergency number). Training on visibly damaged equipment is entirely at your own risk, legally and financially.
    2. Handle with care: Treat the equipment gently and safely. Dropping or throwing plates, dumbbells or kettlebells from a height is strictly forbidden. Set weights down under control.
    3. Tidy up after yourself: Once you're done, put equipment, dumbbells and plates back where they belong, and unload the machines and bars.
  4. Chalk: Powdered chalk is banned throughout the space because of the dust. Liquid chalk only.
  5. Wrapping up & leaving:
    1. Finish your workout so you can leave by the time your slot ends.
    2. Before you go, check that the windows are shut, the water's off, the lights are out, and the front door clicks and locks properly behind you.

Article VI.

Strictly off-limits & fines

  1. Strictly forbidden anywhere on-site:
    1. Smoking, vaping, using smokeless tobacco (iQOS etc.), or any open flame, under Act No. 377/2004 Coll. on the protection of non-smokers.
    2. Training under the influence of alcohol, drugs, or medication that affects your alertness.
    3. Bringing in or drinking alcohol, or bringing illegal substances. Only non-alcoholic drinks in unbreakable (plastic/metal) resealable bottles are allowed.
    4. Eating food in the workout zone.
    5. Bringing in weapons, dangerous items, glass containers, chemicals or animals.
    6. Using the space for anything other than exercise (sleeping over, sexual activity, or anything illegal is strictly forbidden).
    7. Making excessive noise at night (shouting, dropping weights, extremely loud music disturbing the peace).
  2. Fines & penalties: If you break these rules, we can charge the main account holder (whoever booked the slot) a fine and immediately block their account, with no refund of the booking fee:
    1. €25 for letting in more people than were booked and paid for (per unauthorised person),
    2. €50 for smoking, drinking, using drugs, causing excessive noise during quiet hours (10pm – 6am), or leaving the space so dirty it needs special cleaning.
    3. €100 for using the space for anything other than exercise (sleeping over, sexual activity, or anything else illegal).

    Charging a fine doesn't limit our right to claim full damages if the actual damage is worth more than the fine.

Article VII.

Liability for damage & your health

  1. At your own risk: Everyone who enters the gym does every activity entirely at their own risk and responsibility.
  2. Your health: By training, you're confirming you're medically fit for physical and strength exertion. We don't provide medical or coaching supervision, and we're not liable for injuries from overexertion, poor technique, or ignoring the rules.
  3. Your belongings: We're not responsible for lost, stolen or damaged personal items — clothing, cash, jewellery or electronics — brought into the space.
  4. Damage you cause: If you spot a broken machine, damaged flooring, or any fault, report it to us immediately and stop using it. You (or the main account holder) are fully liable for any damage caused intentionally, through gross negligence, or by mishandling the equipment.

Article VIII.

CCTV

  1. To protect our property and keep everyone safe in this self-service space, the gym is monitored 24/7 by CCTV with recording.
  2. Cameras cover the entrance and the training floor. The changing room and bathroom (toilet, shower) are NOT monitored, for your privacy.
  3. Details on how we process CCTV footage are covered in our "Privacy Policy (GDPR)" document, published on our website.

Article IX.

Emergencies

Since we run 24/7 without staff on-site, here's what to do in an emergency:

  1. Injury or a life-threatening situation:
    1. Give first aid using the first aid kit.
    2. Call an ambulance immediately: 155, or the emergency line: 112. Then let us know right away at +421 948 462 676 or +421 948 360 693.
  2. Fire:
    1. There is a working, inspected fire extinguisher in the changing room.
    2. If a fire can't be put out, leave immediately and call the fire brigade: 150 or 112.
  3. Power cut / leaving the building:
    1. The door has a standard mechanical handle on the inside that works purely mechanically, independent of power or the electronic booking system. If the power goes out or there's any electronics fault, you can open the door from inside anytime just by pressing the handle, and leave safely.
    2. For technical issues, call our support line: +421 948 462 676 or +421 948 360 693.

Article X.

The fine print

  1. These House Rules are an integral part of our Terms & Conditions.
  2. They're permanently published on www.solospacegym.sk and posted in print on-site.
  3. By making a booking and paying for a time slot through GYMIFY, you confirm you've read and understood these House Rules and our Terms, that you accept them without reservation, and that you agree to follow them.
  4. We can update these House Rules whenever needed.
