I took lessons for a while about thirty years ago. That got my fundamentals into play. One of the things I didn't like about the lessons was that the instructor was also the Pro Shop counter man, the check-in cashier and overall trouble shooter at the facility. There were other employees but it seemed like he had to cover their positions often. Lessons were sometimes put on hold while he went to answer a phone call or fix the ball dispenser at the range. That broke my momentum. However, in the long run I feel the lessons were beneficial to me, and to his credit he made up for the lost lesson time. That was my experience at a muni. I'm sure a larger facility or private club would have been a better experience.
