I’m a Vicbear member and have an email from a committee member stating that my membership is valid till the 31/ 12 yet the person at the counter has multiple times refused to accept it and has given me attitude. This is terribly embarrassing and humiliating…

Visited a few months back. The main shower area was completely blocked due to repair. That only left the toilets showers to use, which is very inconvenient and unhygienic especially considering the main shower area is next to all the actions taken place.Covid is everywhere. What is the management thinking? Want to spread the virus quicker?!!!!Gross!

$30 entry for a very dirty, unwashed, unclean, unkept & uninviting venue. My locker also didnt close properly and came back to find it actually had g locked.Staff were friendly on way in but I had a shower and felt like I was going to catch something by how dirty it was! It was also very quiet. Definitely not worth the $30. Do some specials, want us to attend and have a good time!

Went there last month. The staff was okay, but they rarely did any cleaning which made the place extremely dirty. A lot of the rooms had no KY and the beds were disgustingly dirty. Really not worth it for paying a high price to go there. No star at all to be given except the location!!!

I visited last night 7/5/2023I must admit the place looks tired outdated and overused. The room floors not cleaned very greasy oh and the staff could be more friendly maybe need those that can speak clear EnglishI would say it’s better to pass on it I think just first impression and location would put you off so imagine just imagine the inside I will leave that to youCheersSV

I am an Asian guy and visited Subway a few weeks ago, but I've read some of the reviews and I agree with some of the comments that treated Asians differently.1) In my experience, one of the staff has yelled at me “ Go home and sleep” but no Asian won't say a word. I reckon some of the staff discriminated against Asians. “It's a shame! No Discrimination at this venue”. ???2)100% needs to improve services or the staff have got an attitude problem and need a new manager.3) Most of the time, the staff are gathering at the counter, chatting, texting or on the phone and doing nothing. Also, most of the entire rooms are so dirty, stink and look disgusting.4. In my opinion, all the staff have to bear in mind, the customer is paying their wages, no customer no job and also subway couldn't keep the business going.5. Once again, hopefully, the management will into these matters seriously. If not will lose more customers, in the future. Cheers

Closest thing to the original and best in Melbourne from the past. Good location/ open 24/7 and usually have a good time.Never expect to be everyone's type and you'll be just fine. Not had any issues with staff here since coming here for 2 and a bit years now. Reccommended!

Never had a problem with this place for the last 15 years until now. Came back after being given a pass out, was shot down by the rude staff if I had anything left in my locker and was asked to pay $5 to come back in. Had further trouble with a locker. All in all very rude staff. Not coming back unless reviews say it's improved.

My experience today was a disaster.I requested to get a bigger locker but staff name Sebastian refused my request. And find him so arrogant and unfriendly.. he should improve his attitude in dealing with clients.It used to be a LGBTI friendly establishment..The Manager should watchful yTo the attitude of this staff..It turns me off.I

$30 entry and $5 passout. Between 2 people you could get a cbd hotel room for about the same price. No wonder it was dead when i went there last week after a few years.

Two of my colleagues and myself (all work at Melbourne saunas group), decided to go to Subway sauna because it’s the only place that’s open on the Tuesday night. So I decided to call ahead of time to ask them because one of my colleagues is a non-binary person. I just didn’t want to have any of us or the staff members to encounter an awkward moment. The staff member reassured me by saying if the person is queer/gay and they do sleep with men and they are comfortable, of course they can come! We got to the door and we were denied entry at the door with a very lame excuse that the manager is not there… I tried to help with the many suggestions 1) if any of the patrons were uncomfortable or my colleague was uncomfortable we would leave immediately and we still Got an unreasonable and lame excuse in response from the staff, saying “I am sorry my manager has to make the decision and they are not here.” I didn’t feel much compassion towards me or my coworker in this situation and I suggested I would personally call the manager if it was me and then the staff said the manager is not here and that SHE was sleeping. I just think that was Discriminatory against queer people in a Queer venue and I’m very dissapointed

I had been served by 2 staff. I'm Asian and my review might be sound racist but scroll down if you don't like it.The reception at the entrance - a young white guy. He was lovely! I said it's my first time being here and he actually guided me the location of the locker room etc. Kudos to that lad... You are the best!On my way out - Indian looking staff was behind the counter. And i asked how to get out from the sauna as the entrance and exit are sharing.. Bit confused as he put the sign 'back in 5mins'..but he was behind the counter!With an attitude I-don't-want-to-work-here, he said just give me your towel and locker key. Owh.. Plus.. I can't forget the sour face he gave me!.... Hey man... I'm Asian too.. Just like you, this is not our country!

Nice sauna, one complaint too expensive should have lunch time special's like Sydney sauna , would get a lot more people there. Went to Subway on a wet Sunday afternoon, should have been busy, very quite. People won't pay $28 if the Sauna is going to have a small crowd. Why would Sydney Sauna have specials and Subway not, owned by same people.

Staff is what let this place down, and a manager that do not care.I understand spanish and i heard them disrespecting customers in spanish while i waited for a towel. Do not know why manager hires people who have no customer skill in a place that should be welcoming, safe and friendly for gay community. You feel like burden to them, not customer. If one name Richard working you in for bad time.Go to Wet on Wellington, they much nicer.

Too expensive. Went to Sydney recently and visited some places like this. Their prices were a lot cheaper with more varieties. Melbourne doesn't have many, hence no competitions. Should have more to bring down the prices.

Place is generally clean. But spa doesn't look like its been cleaned in ages. Understand that with it being open 24/7 that u would see cleaning being done. I was there a hour before i could have a shower. After 4 hours i left areas were still closed to cleaning.Take it no point at all going of a morning

I lived in melbourne for 8 years and never got a chance to come here. Finally came here yesterday with my friends and had a very good time and experience. I feel so regret that I have wasted last 8 years, really should come here earlier!The venue is nice and clean, the only thing I think that could be improved is the water in the pool is a bit cold.

It’s a great venue, big and well kept. Last night I went there and the only one staff member (as happened in a the past) had to do everything; from the cleaning to the bar service to the door. It wasn’t safe for him to be the only staff member also.
