Am afraid not.. at least no gym that is within easy reach = being able to get there on foot or by bicycle.
There is 1 gym close-by that does have a very poor squat rack (no ledgers) but their equipment is so old & disks , barbells & dumbbells are both in lbs-es and kilograms and some not even without any indication that it drove me crazy. Finding the correct weights took me longer than the actual workout.

Besides my preference is to lift in the morning and they are only open in the evening (Mon-Fri) and Sunday morning.. I want a gym that's open 7d/wk and has weights in actual kilograms that are accurate.

An acquaintance of mine is building up his own 'home' -gym and I know he would allow friends to train there too. Alas, he's a chain smoker and even just staying around him for only 30 minutes is enough for my poor lungs. I'm 100% positive he'd smoke in his own gym, as he has every right to do in his own property.
