Soul Fitness

The integrity of Carmine, the general manager and the owners of Soul Fitness Club is immensely commendable. Words cannot accurately describe how wonderful these people are. I felt so welcomed and at home while Carmine gave me a tour of the facility. Its so nice inside! I love the hardwood floors through out the wntire place, the lack of mirrors, the incredible view out west over Myrtle Edwards… it didnt feel like a number in a meat market. And the motivation to get in shape is supported by the various services and classes the gym offers. Definitely check out this gym and the $ 29.99 deal til ⁷⁄₃₁! I HIGHLY recommend this gym to anyone out there wanting to go to a super chill, honest, nice sauna fitness club. If I move back to Seattle, this will be my gym!!! Carmine, you are amazing.

I recently joined Soul Fitness and am so glad that I did.
The staff is knowledgeable, professional, approachable and seem to care about the club and members/​guests.
The space is amazing. I’ve belonged to many gyms over the last decade and this one takes the cake. It’s beautiful inside with hardwood floors and the industrial warehouse feel, and has all of the equipment you could need to get whatever type of workout you’re looking for. I really enjoy that it isn’t a massive club with a ton of members, which creates more of a, «this is my local gym» feel. Soak up that feeling while bettering your body and mind, and view out the big windows overlooking the Puget Sound.
The group fitness/​other studios are great, locker rooms are spacious and clean (everything is clean actually) and the music was nice. Not too loud, not too quiet.
Overall — I give this place a ⁵⁄₅ due to the space, equipment, affordability and staff. Check it out for yourself.

I really like Soul Fitness. My trainer is very knowledgable, which is great, because I have some health issues I have to work around. The facility is really clean and not too crowded. It’s also really affordable, which is awesome. I have been a member at another gym in the area, and the difference at Soul Fitness is pretty noticeable. I would definitely recommend taking a tour. I will update this review after having my membership a bit longer, but I anticipate it will still be 5 stars. (My only flag is that my tall water bottle is a bit of a pain to fill, because it’s too tall for the sink.)

Was a member here in the past. I loved the gym and Glen is a great guy. I am on the Eastside now, but if I still lived in Queen Anne, I’d definitely still be working out here. No meatheads and great views of the Sound! Not sure of why other folks had issues but my cancellation wasn’t a problem. Check this place out for sure if you’re in the area.

BEWARE of this gym. I find this gym’s customer service standard to be completely non-​existent. I have found that this gym is inconsistent with package pricing and rules within their existing membership — Its almost comical how this gym is operated. Also no medical holds on memberships — even if your in the hospital! When I researched gyms in the area, I went to a lot of gyms. Looking back, I wish I would have chosen to work out at any other gyms. My friends who joined other gyms LOVE them and the great customer service they have received. I regret choosing Soul Fitness and dealing with their belittling manner when handling differences. I would rather just be working out. My advice. go to another gym!

This is quite possibly the worst experience I’ve ever had with any company ever. Glen, the manager, would not let me remove my automatic withdrawal from my account and pay via check. nor would he let me cancel my account 90 days in advance. Rather, he said I would have to wait until exactly 30 days before my contract ends. Why won’t they let me give notice earlier than 30 days if I know I’m going to cancel? Also, I’m sure this may be a great gym to work out at, but Glen was the most unprofessional and disrespectful person I’ve ever spoken with.
Also, please look at their rating on the Better Business Bureau… it’s miserable.

This facility is a great place to work out. The gym is welcoming and the equipment is great. Not to mention the view is amazing! Great motivation while you’re sweatin’ it out on the treadmill.
Most of the people I’ve encountered are great too. Olivia is especially awesome. She helped me out of a jam with their accounting department beyond what she needed to do. I feel like the owner would have a really tough time if she ever leaves.
I have yet to attend a class, but I really want to! They seem like a lot of fun. However, I have worked with a couple of they’re trainers, and have nothing but good things to say about them!

After reading the reviews, I was really nervous to check this place out but I’m so glad I did, it might be the best decision I’ve ever made! As a person with serious social anxiety, the excitement of joining a gym is up there with going to the dentist for me, but Soul is an incredibly comfortable and welcoming environment. Lots of gyms claim to be, but this one really is.
Olivia gave me a tour and asked targeted questions about my goals. When it came time to talk about joining, she was incredibly straight forward about the membership types and fees, let me know what I’d get for my budget (which I made clear) and walked away to let me think about it… I could have just left, with no pressure from her at all. That high pressure sales pitch I was worried about? Didn’t happen. Olivia was a peach.
The facility itself — the views are beautiful, everything is clean and in working order, and it’s never packed.
Finally, yoga flow (included with basic membership) with Hillary is amazing! She is so incredibly helpful, I told her I was new to yoga and she offered to stay after class to help me with some basic moves. Other students have said she connects really well with them. If nothing else, Hillary will keep me coming back.
Soul Fitness is just an amazing environment all around, and an incredibly great value.

Just started working in the area and stopped by to see the space and potentially join. as others noted, I was introduced by quite possibly the worst customer service I’ve ever experienced. Staff were cold and disingenuous, lots of waiting to be helped, paperwork overload just for a tour, and the sales situation was awkward and full of layered charges designed to push me into a quick decision… Drop the annoying sales tactics.
And $ 300 join fee + $ 70 a month? Mmmno.

Just joined this week. Great customer service by Olivia & Emily through the tour, sign up process & first visits (I didn’t need to think about the commitment — I wanted a gym membership, the price was perfect = simple). The facilities & equipment are premier, solid base yoga classes included with helpful, friendly instructors, clean, spacious and gorgeous windows showcase gorgeous views of the sound. Easy, free street parking.

Based on these reviews I never would have come here, good thing I know people that have told me otherwise so I’m here to fill you in like my pal did for me– I give this gym 5 stars because It’s very clean, has all of the equipment I need to obtain my fitness goals, includes classes and is NEVER packed. The staff is extremely helpful (Olivia was our counselor and she was awesome) and the team here really does have your best interests at heart. Those of you complaining that they pressure you to sign up-​I get it but I can tell you one thing after managing fitness clubs myself over the last 8 years that this place is top notch and they know it, they also know that people that sign up on their first visit are more likely to obtain their goals because they start achieving them right away.
The next best place is ZUM and it’s going to cost you $ 160+ a month. As for anything else in the area NOTHING comes close, and believe me I did my shopping (It was my job). Stop shopping and start working out, If you have any questions on membership ask for Olivia– she got my significant other and I signed up and we honestly couldn’t be happier! Cheers.

I have been member of various gym across country but SOUL fitness has been the most disappointing experience for me. They have limited machines but more disappointing experience for me is that they try to rip you off in every way they can. Their customer is the worst I have seen. Even for month-​to-​month membership, they will make sure they make you pay extra 3 months of membership fees when you are cancelling. What is the point of month-​to-​month then? I would highly recommend people to explore other options before opting for this one.

Like others on this thread, my friends and family have had problems with pushiness and poor customer service. We were lured by the promise of a cheap monthly rate as our old gym was closing. We hoped we could take a simple tour and make a quick decision to become customers.
The gal who gave us the tour (Olivia?) insisted on having us fill out essentially a work brief for the personal training team. We quickly found that while the facility overall was stocked, we’d be unable to use some of the cooler features without paying hundreds additional per month in group class or training fees.
Overall, we got a bad vibe and figured we’d end up shelling out much more money than was initially advertised. We said thanks but no thanks. Because she had my girlfriend’s phone number («this is a requirement») she called her several times to see if she had «changed her mind».
Here’s my advice to Olivia and those who work with her or train her: old school, high pressure, pushy sales tactics alienate people.
We’re both happy members of Seattle Gym at the top of Queen Anne, and haven’t looked back. Facility is older, but we are able to work out how we please, and have the option to subscribe to their personal trainers if we choose. Nothing is off limits!

I would probably have given Soul Fitness four stars but my trainer is a five (six!) star gal NO QUESTION so I have to rate my overall experience.
When I was new in town and shopping around for gyms I agree that the sales/​sign up process here was a little bit pushy but hey, that is their job right? I was put off and so did trial memberships at several other places. After I tried essentially every other gym I came into Soul to take a tour and was blown away by the facility. The building has beautiful hard wood floors, huge open windows, a great view from the cardio machines, and plentiful updated equipment. The space is open so you never feel like everything is too close together– which is how I feel at every other gym around here. The locker rooms are also giant and there is plenty of locker space so you would never have to worry about keeping your belongings there while you workout. They even have a little sauna room big enough for 2 – 3 (no one is ever in there). The one tiny issue I have is that there is no where to hang your things in the shower stalls (soap or towel) so getting ready here can be challenging but you can make It work as I have frequently.
This gym is serious but not intimidating, it has a friendly neighborhood feel but filled with similar minded folks who are focused on what they are doing there.
When I signed up for my membership, which is super affordable, I was encouraged to sign up with a trainer. Hesitant at first, I am a convert 100%! Courtney S. (not sure if I should use her whole name here) is AMAZING. She started slow with me and after building up my strength and confidence she is now challenging me in every session. I look forward to meeting her at the gym every time because I know how good I am going to feel and I am seeing some great results. It doesn’t hurt that she is a pleasure to be around. I just signed up for double the number of original sessions I signed up with because she is that awesome.
As long as I live in Seattle I will not workout anywhere else. This is my special spot and would be hesitant to put it on blast (keep the crowd away!) but they deserve the stars.

I have been a member of Soul Fitness for just over a year and absolutely adore it! The staff is friendly, attentive, and responsive. The gym is always conspicuously clean. The cardio machines are wiped down often throughout the day and the free weights and weight machines are in order. I never have to walk around looking for the one other 20lb barbell or whatever. In addition, the facility is gorgeous! Forget taking selfies, I spend Sunday mornings taking pictures of the amazing light coming through the floor to ceiling windows that look out to the Sound. Last note: my experience with Soul Fitness trainers has been incredible. Michele, Courtney, and Aidan are great at what they do. Take a class or pick up a couple sessions with any of them and you will not regret it!

Full disclosure: I am not and have not ever been a member at Soul Fitness, so this review is not based on my experience as a member. It is however a review of my experience as a prospective member.
I found myself at Soul Fitness’ doorstep after Lower Queen Anne’s sole 24 Hour Fitness closed. Needing a new neighborhood gym, I figured I’d try this one. While the facilities and equipment seem top notch, and the space is gorgeous and definitely not as crowded as other gyms, I was put off by the sales manager’s pushy approach. When going over membership options, I told her I’d need some time to review my options, and she kept pushing me further to make a decision right then and there. While this did work in her offering me lower membership fees the more I resisted in making a split second decision, she didn’t seem to know when to back down. The result was the end of an awkward meeting that left me feeling extremely badgered and pressured; not the kind of business I want to be committing to for any period of time, no matter what kind of deals they promise.
After this experience, I went up the hill and became a member at The Seattle Gym, which I recommend to anyone else seeking a gym/​fitness center alternative in the Queen Anne neighborhood.

I have been a member since August 1^st and have no complaints so far. For $ 30/​month there is no better deal in LQA/​Belltown. I also partake in the RAW (ripped ass women) class with Michelle and am completely in love. She is truly amazing and I get pushed every single week. I hope to be a long time member.

After being a member at the nearby 24 hour fitness for 2 years, the move to Soul Fitness has been a dream. The classes are great (especially the power yoga), and the employees are all friendly. On top of that, the pricing is amazing and the facilities are beautiful.
The only reasons why I’m giving ⁴⁄₅ instead of ⁵⁄₅ is 1) the location is not super convenient for parking/​street-​crossing, and 2) it gets pretty warm with the afternoon sun shining in and they don’t seem to cool it.

I have been going to Soul for the last 7 – 8 months are so. I am surprised this place isn’t rated higher than it currently is (2.5 stars).
What I really like about the gym:
1. Not nearly as packed as a 24-​hour fitness gym. I am easily able to rotate between machines and workouts (sometimes going back and forth between two machines) without worrying about it being poached.
2. State of the art equipment. It’s all new or feels pretty new and they have a ton of cool stuff such as two squat racks, a TRX area, a row of rowing machines, etc.
3. Aesthetically pleasing gym. They do a great job keeping it clean and looking modern without being super intense about it like a David Barton gym.
4. Staff and people at the gym are very friendly. I’ve mostly dealt with Olivia and Courtney, who are really nice.
5. I love the PRIME strength conditioning class. This is one of my biggest reasons why I love this gym. Aidan, the class instructor, does a great job mixing things up, keeping you challenged and exhausted, and he’s super friendly and funny. If you join PRIME, you’re joining a community of workout buddies AND friends.
Things I wish could be changed:
1. I wish they had bands, boxes for box jumps, and kettle bells out in the open for regular use.
2. The management is fairly strict on monthly dues for classes in terms of early cancellation or taking a break for personal reasons. They stick to the contract (which is fine) but I wish they could have been a little more flexible when I couldn’t come to PRIME for one month due to personal reasons. This would have been great from a customer goodwill perspective.

This review is specifically for Michele’s RAW class and the facility, I have not had the opportunity to try some of the other classes but I have heard good things about them. So I can’t comment on that but I can comment on the facility and the RAW class. I love the class so much that I go three times a week. I have also done personal training sessions with Michele and she is worth every penny. She is the best trainer I have ever had. She works with your individual needs and helps to create a fun and welcoming workout environment for any body type. Her classes are filled with wonderful women who encourage each other rather than judge. I have met some really amazing women through this class and have lost weight and gained muscle. It is a win win for anybody looking to get fit.
The facility itself is nice. They have these windows that have a lovely view of the water and there is also a lot of natural lighting. The equipment is decent and I have always found the staff to be super friendly. Everyone is very encouraging and I have to say this is the best gym environment that I have been in. I am also a member of 24 fitness but it has gotten really to be a discouraging environment where I feel both men and women are judging each other. I feel the opposite about Soul Fitness. Working there is fun and the people are great. I highly encourage anyone to sign up!

I have been with Soul Fitness for about a year and I have had a great experience.
By nature, I was never really into going to the gym because my experiences were not good (pushy sales staff, gym rats, etc.) however, Soul isn’t like this. The staff are super friendly, the facilities are clean and they offer some really great classes (RAW– Michele Messina).
I haven’t had any issue with billings or feeling pressure, but yes, a gym membership does cost money. I pay $ 40 a month for the gym and free classes. I also pay more to be part of the RAW class which is amazing (no one pressured me to sign up). Plus it is more affordable than a monthly barre or spin classes.
Soul is a good gym, but like anything you decide to spend money and time on, a gym has to match up with your needs/​qualifications. For me it works!

As a person that’s been in gym-​life for decades, all over the country, from NYC, to Miami, to LA, and the world — to London, Paris, Tokyo; I’m looking for energy, vibe, juice, place and attitude — gyms have vibes; they have good people or disconnected talent. Soul has some great people — member teams and committed staff, lots of light, and some awesome trainers. Some clubs have trainers who barely look like they work out. Here, everyone’s in – they train, they teach, they practice what they preach. I moved to Soul from downtown — and while there’s not a pool here, or squash courts, I’m doing just fine. Check it out. G

I’ve been at Soul for a few years now — first as Rain, now as Soul. Names aside, I’ve been perfectly happy with the facilities, the staff, and the contract arrangements. I’m a fan of CrossFit and since Soul added their RAW classes (CrossFit by another name), I’ve been even more of a fan. In fact, I could probably go to many other CrossFit boxes in the area but what sets things apart for me is that the facility has great locker facilities, sauna, and showers — something that’s really convenient when you want to swing by the gym during the work day.
I guess my only gripe is that the water fountains don’t always function all that well — sometimes dribbling instead of gushing. But that’s not a big enough problem in my book to downgrade my rating.

I agree with the overall rating about Soul Fitness fitness club. I would like to clarify upfront, my feedback stems from how little they value customer relationships and service, and not the gym itself. Beware: they will take your money unduly, and you would to go through a lot to get it back (sadly, I am still stuck with it even now).
Let me cut to the chase — I have been a customer at the gym for over a year now. I signed up for a 1-​year membership in June 2014. My 1-​year term ended in June 2015, and I had no intention of renewing my lease. I expected that following the 1-​year term, my membership would automatically terminate and everything would be fine. Apparently, not quite. I was contacted by them several times after the end of my membership letting me know saying that they are not being able to charge my credit card (apparently, the transaction was being declined). I told them explicitly that I am no longer interested in continuing my membership and was glad that my credit card had automatically started blocking their payments. Anyway, fast forward 1 month, I see a charge of $ 70 on my credit card, which includes $ 20 late fee (the same card that was being declined earlier had magically started working again!) I never updated their records intentionally because I didn’t want to continue the membership. And they don’t know how that happened since all payments go through a 3^rd party billing agency — so someone other than them has access to your credit card details, so they can deny explaining any charges that you don’t understand. go figure.
Oh as for why they charged me an additional $ 20, that was because apparently I hadn’t paid on time. Wait what? I told you I didn’t want to continue my membership and I told you to cancel! Apparently, that wasn’t enough. I need to either go in person, or send them a hand-​written mail (no, email is not enough) requesting them to cancel my membership (are we in stone age?)
It gets better, they tell me that not only did they do the right thing by wrongly charging me for the previous month (and levying a $ 20 late fee), but that they will also be charging me for the next month because I haven’t canceled my membership. Why? Because apparently the contract I signed with them states that. Great, can I get a copy of my contract please? Nope, I can’t, at least not before the next cycle begins which is 3 weeks later, which would mean that at that point they get to charge me for an additional month after the two months they already charged me for. And why would it take so long? Well, because they don’t have access to my membership contract and it’s with that 3^rd party billing company that has access to all my personal details without my even knowing.
So all in all the damage I have incurred so far with them is $ 70. I am trying to get my membership canceled so that I don’t get ripped off any further, but we’ll see how that goes. Remember, I have already paid them every single month consistently for the last 12 months and this is what I get in return.
The gym facilities are decent, I must give them that, but as they say, don’t make the mistake of judging a book by it’s cover. Management, if you are reading this, get your act together or else you risk losing all your existing customers and new customers. There are plenty of great gyms out their with really good management, and if you want to stay in the market, you need to treat your customers properly and not just be after their money.

I am surprised by the negative reviews. I have only been going to Soul Fitness for a month, but my experience has been really pleasant so far. I am only taking the RAW class, so I do not have a full gym membership. I highly recommend and am really happy with what that class has to offer!
The facility is new and very nice. Aside from the WAC, I would say it is the cleanest and nicest looking gym I have seen. It also doesn’t seem to get too packed and I come in the evening after work which is usually the busiest time at a gym. The girl up front has always been nice and very helpful!
It does scare me seeing some reviews that mention credit card mix-​ups, so I will be keeping an eye on that. All in all, I would suggest not being dissuaded by the negative reviews and trying it out!

I just cancelled my membership after being at Rain and then Soul for the last 5 years. The girl at the desk asked why I was cancelling, told her medical leave, she apologized and said she hoped to see me back there after I got fixed up. It took me two minutes to fill out the paper work and I’m done. And I will go back.
The gym is super clean, I never got athletes foot from the showers, they clean the machines at least 3 times a day as any time I’ve been in there, the staff is busy wiping down everything. The machines are always getting updated, musics good, and there’s no meat heads in there throwing out vibes. If you want a clean, well stocked gym to go and get a workout in with out it being an overly social thing, then Souls your gym. Thanks for the 5 years guys, looking forward to making it back.

I’m here to update my last review. Since I have been in contact with them regarding my concerns, Olivia has been very helpful. My schedule is crazy and she got me in to see Austin for a personal training session. Austin was amazing, helpful and educated on her craft. She recommended someone who would be the best fit for me and my goals.
The website is up to date on classes they offer and Olivia called to follow up with me.
I think its so important that the people who run gyms really understand how hard it is for some people to find time and motivation to get in there on a regular basis and so when you run into some obstacles from the staff it gets discouraging. Which is how I felt in my personal case. I’m feeling confident this wont happen again & I wont be terminating my membership!

I have been a member for 2 years now. I like the atmosphere, it’s never overly crowded (never have to fight for a treadmill) and has an all around cool vibe. Love the vintage feel to the décor. They have added some new classes recently which is great! Flow yoga on Mondays and Wednesdays at 6:30pm. Finally yoga classes I can make it to after work! I have also taken the boxing class– fun and a great work out.

I’m a bit surprised by the flood of negative comments here. (Maybe because most people who are pretty happy with their gym don’t think about reviewing it?) Sure, this place is not going to be like THE Washington Athletic Club, but for $ 40-​something a month, I definitely get my money’s worth! I’ve been going for a couple months now and I haven’t really noticed any broken equipment. It works REALLY well for me because I can walk easily here. I’ve found that distance is the key to making any gym membership worth it! I probably would’ve not chosen this gym if it was not very convenient location-​wise, but I recommend it to anyone who lives in the neighborhood.
Every staff member I’ve had interactions with has been very helpful and friendly. Even when I forget my card, they remember who I am — which is something you won’t get from a run-​of-​the-​mill gym.
Also, it’s really nice because they seem to never be too crowded. I can always find room on the treadmill, free weights and machines. I got a set of personal training sessions which really helped me diversify my workouts! Thank you, Soul Fitness (and Lindsey!) :)
Tip 1: If you are really into heavy weightlifting, you can’t drop your weights here because of the wooden floors everywhere. (But that definitely doesn’t apply to me!)
Tip 2: They have some free yoga, barre, cycle classes. Paid classes include things that are comparable to CrossFit.

I signed up for the Queen Ann/​Belltown branch of Soul in mid February 2013. The club required a 12-​month commitment and I was charged first and last month’s fees up front. I didn’t have any real issues using the gym over the last year. I don’t do group fitness or classes and so my needs are pretty simple. My only real complaint with the equipment or facility is that it isn’t well ventilated and seems uncomfortably warm at all times.
The real trouble isn’t using the gym, it is trying to cancel. I am moving to DC for a military obligation in mid January, and I originally approached a manager to cancel my membership in November (that in itself was no simple task, as the normal staff can’t handle cancellations and it took three separate inquiries on three different visits before a manager was actually available). I explained to the manager that December was my last month under the terms of the original contract and that I wished to cancel so that I would not be charged after December. I was told that I had to wait until after December 1 and I’d fulfilled the 12-​month agreement to cancel.
Heeding that instruction, I tried again to cancel my membership today, 12÷3÷2014, and was told that because I didn’t cancel «30 days in advance» I would be charged for January, and the last month of membership I already paid at sign-​up would be applied to February. I explained the situation to Kevin, the general manager, who sounded condescending and treated me as if I was lying about the manager who told me just two weeks ago that I had to wait until after Dec 1 to cancel.
Long story short, even though I have already paid through January thus fulfilling the terms of my 12-​month agreement, and indicated on or about ¹¹⁄₂₀ and then again on ¹²⁄₃ that I wished for January to be my last month of membership, Soul Fitness tells me I am stuck paying until Feb 28 (and based on some of these other reviews, who knows whether they will ever actually stop charging me).
Washington state has a law called the Consumer Protection Act (RCW 19.86) which prohibits business from engaging in unfair or deceptive practices. Soul seems to be banking on nobody bothering to involve attorneys over a few hundred dollars, but if found liable under the Consumer Protection Act, Soul would be obligated to pay treble damages (three times the amount actually lost by any of us consumers as a result of their unfair and deceptive practices) AND the amount of our court costs and attorneys fees. If I continue to be charged, I will heavily consider legal action.

UPDATE: I have reported Soul to the better business bureau. I will not stop until they fix this. What they are doing is wrong. And Glenn is the most unprofessional «customer disservice» representative.
I kept getting charged after I cancelled three months ago. When I called, they told me to bring in my cancellation slip to prove that I had actually cancelled. I actually did find my slip (from months ago) and said that I wouldn’t bring it in because it’s their mistake and I work 12 hour days. All they said is that they would call me back later this afternoon. Give me my $ 195 back!
Well they called me back and still refused to reimburse me. They went on to say that they had «lost» my original copy for my cancellation and that he could not do anything to fix it. Luckily I have voicemails of them calling trying to work out a new deal from July (July 5^th was when I cancelled). Fraud! Tempted to get my lawyer friend on this…

Incredibly rude staff/​manager.
Continue charging months after canceling membership.
Reinstate membership without your knowledge, then tack on late fees.
I can only assume the manager there has small-​man syndrome, is unfathomably insecure, or else lacks the common sense to treat members with courtesy. He pretty much called me a liar and said he wouldn’t do anything to help me cancel my membership, but would continue charging me and it was my problem whether or not I used the membership. I probably could’ve been talked into renewing if I’d spoken to a normal human being that understands customer service.
All of this, after I’d canceled over 6 months ago.
I didn’t take much heed to previous reviews about how horrible this place is, but it is the worst gym I’ve ever been a member of (24Hour and LA Fitness are much better). They should fire the manager or close this place down.

THIS IS AN WARNING ISSUED IN PUBLIC INTEREST!
Do not sign up here! they are just a ripoff with most unethical registration and fees policies and the best part is they are hidden! Also gym equipment sucks and the supervisor was a douche.
Examples :
There is only ONE dead lift/​squat rack, ONE bench press, THE BASIC WEIGHTS ARE MISSING! you have to weight long for your turn! if you just use machines go for it there are tons, but this gym is not for anyone who wants to muscle/​strength train.
Once I was doing cleans& press, then the gym supervisor comes in and starts yelling at me «be gentle to the weights» WTF! this happened 2 – 3 times.
Next, when I cancel my membership they couldn’t do it over the phone, great! I go in they say they need to keep charging for the next month even if I do not go in! that is their fucked up policy!
Once I brought a friend with me who was visiting Seattle for 7 days to train, he registered for 7 days and paid the money. But he had to leave on the 2^nd day due to an emergency, guess what– no Refunds even if you don’t train! THEY THREATENED HIM WITH A LAWYER FOR ASKING A REFUND!!!
However, if your primary concern is «CLEAN, BEAUTIFUL VIEW, SHINY FLOOR, BEDROOM TYPE MIRROR «go for it, if you are serious about training and money look else where.
Wish I could give them ZERO STARS! :(
