Is there anything that I can do to make my apartment give methe amenitiesthey advertised when I moved in?
I moved into my apartment last 8 months ago and was told that they had a 24/7 gym for tenants. However after moving in I found out that the gym was “under construction”. The gym has now been supposedly updated and was first next to the office and only open during the crazy horrible office hours available. After many tenants complained it was moved back to its original location and tenants were required to give a $50 key deposit if they wished to access the gym. After I paid the extra money for a key I found out that the A/C does not work at all in the gym.

What does your written lease agreement say on the subject about the gymn? That would be the first thing I would read concerning your question. If the written lease does not address the subject, are there any written flyers talking the subject?
How long has the gymn not been in operational due to its updating?
Is the air conditioning unit going to be fixed any time soon for the gymnasium?
Perhaps speaking with the apartment's manager about the problems with the gym, a tometable for the repairs and a possible rebate to you on your rent when you were not able to use the facility as a result of the problems with it.
