Well, I still stick to the idea of try before you buy. See if they'll let you have a short trial at whichever gym you end up going for.
Also, when are you more likely to use it? If it's after work, what better than to fall out of work and into the gym without a significant drive. And you might change jobs at some point, so a chain would be more likely to have another gym near your new job and with any luck near your home too, so you can go at the weekends.
