(User-Written IELTS Writing Task 1 Sample)

Dear Sir or Madam,

I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to complain about a new sports facility in my area.

This sports venue looks very attractive from the outside, and it has drawn many people who are interested in exercising there. The facility offers various types of equipment, such as treadmills, barbells, stationary bikes, yoga mats, and trampolines, with three sets of each. The new sports center is located on Jalan Sultan Hasanuddin, Gowa, not far from the supermarket and next to the mosque.

Although there are many facilities, some of them are not functioning properly. For example, the treadmills and stationary bikes do not work. In addition, the cleanliness of the room is unsatisfactory, which makes exercising uncomfortable.

I would like the council to ensure that the facilities are of good quality so that people can exercise comfortably. Furthermore, I hope regular cleaning and proper maintenance will be provided to make the sports center safe and pleasant for all users.

Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Yours sincerely,

Rahmaniar Natsir
