This gym has a lot of great qualities. They have a lot of equipment and the staff is amazing. The locker rooms are also much cleaner than other gyms.The biggest issue with this gym is the time it closes on Friday, Saturday and Sunday. Unless you get in fairly early, which is difficult on Friday if you work a standard 9-5, you won’t have enough time to work out.I’d also say the floors are a bit of a concern. They’re lumpy in a lot of areas, and you can see the carpet is worn through to the wood underneath by the cables. The platforms for the two squat racks aren’t good. They don’t feel stable, especially if you’re lifting heavy. The floor under the squat rack just to the right of them is slightly uneven.Other than those minor flaws, this is a really good gym.I ended up leaving because one of the other members was constantly bothering me while I was trying to work out to the point where I was anxious to even go work out and would end up not going to to the gym just to avoid the member. And I had spoken to the member about the fact that he was making me uncomfortable only to hear that lifting with people watching makes you better. I don’t think standing 5 feet away from a woman while she’s squatting or doing hip thrusts and very obviously staring at her during her entire set, especially when she doesn’t know you, makes her a better lifter. This gym has some of the creepiest bodybuilders compared to the other gyms I’ve been to where they try to get in your business if they think you’re also a bodybuilder/power lifter.
Very clean tons of awesome equipment I hope that I can go again sometime (I was there as a guest)
I know for a fact that every staff member who I have met are absolutely the most courteous and helpful than the other four Ive tried !! What is the best is not just one of the staff its everyone of them
Appreciative of a local business and members doing whatever is needed to be done during this time with one goal in mind: STAYING OPEN! Thank You Accolade Fitness and Accolade Members!
Quote from the owner. “We have 550 people walk through our doors everyday, how do they expect us to get any cleaner?” That’s very concerning to hear. Lifetime fitness an sees around 5K members a day and never thinks they can be clean enough along with many many other gyms I have been to. I don’t want to belong to a gym who believes they can’t get any better than they already are. I do not trust this gym or the owner after hearing that. Believing they can’t get any cleaner is beyond concerning and I warn anyone who is thinking of going here to choose a different gym immediately.
My favorite place to be...the staff is always friendly and helpful... Its not crowded...
I couldnt start my day without visiting my favorite place. The staff is very helpful and friendly.
I am no longer a member of Accolade Gym because I moved. I really loved this gym. It had everything I needed and the price was very reasonable. The equipment is clean and well-maintained. Aaron White is an excellent trainer. I wish I could still go there but it is too far away from my home now.
I go to accolade fitness for many reason. First this is the cleanest gym I have ever been to. Secondly it is organized and people put things back. The staff is great. I bring a friend every day and he plans to join once his membership is up at another low level gym.I LOVE this gym! Go try it out, you will love it too!
Dear Duane Johnston,I DID love Accolades fitness until I recently ran into some trouble. after starting up my membership with my husband several months ago, I went in to cancel and to my surprise Accolades charged me an additional $25. I called and spoke with Arron who said that not only was he the one that canceled my membership but he refused to refund my $25 charge due to his mistake. I asked him who the manager was, he I formed me it was him. I asked him several times who the owners were and he refused to give me that information. After I told him that I would look online to find out who the owners were, only then did he tell me your name. I then asked him for your contact info and he refused to give it to me or leave a message for you to return my call. I called the south location and left a message there. Three days later I called again and because she knew my name she told me she was instructed from Arron that she could not give you my information to call me back nor would she give me any of your contact information. I am deeply disappointed at the level of disgruntled service I have received from Arron and the rest of the employees. I only ask that you look into the $25 mistake charge so you can see if there is a training opportunity.Thank you
Great gym. I read some reviews about them charging even though the member didnt go - its in the contract. Its not a pay per use gym and they go over everything when you sign up. If you cant get there, its YOUR responsibility to let them know! This gym contract is extremely easy to get out of. Most other gyms, including 24, you have a longer contract that youd have to pay off entirely. Stop blaming the gym because you cant communicate. Its a good gym and has great equipment
Called and asked how much a 1 month membership is. Gentleman on phone said $30 for one month guest pass. I asked how much if I want to do another month after that and he said $30. 2 hours later I show up and some how the price changed to $35 a month but with a $50 to $75 initiation fee. None of which brought up on the phone when I asked oh, $30, that is all? His defense was he only works one day a week (meaning he doesnt need to pay attention?)In response to owner: If owner heard the exchange then they would have heard the employee say sorry, the $30 was last week but it has now changed to $35 and I forgot. However even the owner is still baiting in with $30 and then sneaking in the enrollment fee later. When customer asks is $30 all I would pay for 1 month to use facility and the staff says yes then it is a bait and switch when it is turned into $69.On a side note, I have not been around gyms because of number manipulation and overall pushy feel from quick talking staffs.
I like the location, but it doesnt always feel clean. The treadmills safety cords are grimey and the controls could be cleaner. There could be someone available to answer questions about the machines, not a coach, but make sure people are clear on positioning.The front desk people are congenial a d as helpful as possible without leaving their post.
This is my favorite of the two locations just because I like the layout more but the staff at both is great. They are always friendly and the facilities are very clean!
So far I am very satisfied with my membership. This is an awesome gym and has many amenities such as tanning unfortunately they do not have a pool. Friendly judgment free environment With a huge selection of machines free weights and cardio equipment, The also have some specialty equipment for crossfit training And more. Personal trainers are available and the price for membership is definitely worth what you get with it.
I really want to leave a good review but the hours and closed days are so frustrating. Closes early on weekends and fridays?Lets have a party to celebrate 10 years, meaning lets close the gym to all our members for being so loyal!Good gym, nice people, bad hours and closed days.
Staff was rude to me on a couple occasions and my wife had an emergency surgery and I ripped a muscle and we didnt cancel our membership and had no money in the bank and they made me pay for 3 months I never set foot in the gym before I could come back which I did then I went to cancel my member ship today and they made me pay for another month even though Im not going there any more and they was like you can still come for another month and a half so I paid for 4 months I never set foot in the gym I have been to a lot better gyms in the springs glad to put this place behind me. never felt so screwed by a gym in my life and Ive been to a lot of different gyms in the springs
I love the staff. I love rhevgym.
Clean! How often can you say that about a gym!? I love that they provide towels and spray to clean stations before/after you use them. Nice changing area. Dry sauna needed help at my last visit but still works well.
I use to love going there until I found out they allow non members to film and exploit you for there personal gain without your knowledge or concent, I found it doing an online search
Been going here for over a year, the staff is so friendly and remember who you are. Its by far the cleanest gym, and has everything you need. Not mention the monthly price beats anyone.
Originally left a bad review, but the owner was cool enough to talk with me about my concerns and I feel like that’s not something you’ll get at other gyms. They’ve made huge improvements with the equipment and the membership is very affordable. No gym is perfect, but having an owner who actually cares goes a long way.
One of the best gyms Ive been part of. Maintained very well. The staff is above par and very friendly and professional. Phil (manager currently) is one of the most helpful people in the gym. Always a great environment to be around.
Just ok. Needs a few machine updates and repairs.Clean but bland atmosphere.Still up to you to get that great workout!
Nice, clean, and friendly. This doesn’t warrant the loss of a star, but they do play too much Daughtry for my taste. Of course, that’s what headphones are for :)
I love this gym! Ive been to many others and this place feels right for me. Its always clean. Free rtx circuit and yoga classes. New machines! They have a Ninja warrior training equipment! Its not loud and a serene environment. Did i say they have a private dry sauna? I did now!
The best local gym on the Westside! This location is much better than the one on Garden of the Gods... Its cleaner, better organized, and the weight room has enough squat racks for everyone. The staff is very friendly and helpful, and equipment gets fixed in a timely manner. The only downside is that they only have one deadlift platform.
A good mix between a hardcore gym and a box gym. Only issue is the floor in the weight room seems unstable. They seem to be on top of any issues and care about your experience daily.
Ok gym, cheap and you definitely get what you pay for. No pool, basketball court, or racquetball. This gym is basic with old weights and some pretty territorial people, but its better than the 24 hour fitness down the road. Closes early AF on the weekends, so you can only workout in the evenings 4 days a week.
Great gym. Clean equipment and very friendly staff. Nothing is ever broken when I go in and the staff is always very helpful if I have a question about any exercise.
Make sure you wear a mask while reading this review.
I have been using this gym for the past year and I have got to say this is the most laid back relaxing atmosphere. Very little crowd in the morning! The early morning staff are great, extremely helpful and funny.
This gym is amazing. I love the atmosphere it has. Its just the price is a bit high in comparison.
Great place. Great equipment and super friendly staff. Just wish there was a location on the south or east side
Owner and manager are liars. We sent a certified letter and went in person to cancel our membership in June and Sept. We moved out of state and we have spoken to Ben and Travis who are very rude. I have verification of the receipt of the certified letter. Today they asked me to send another letter and after we told them we would be writing reviews online they called back and agreed to cancel but no refunds on the past due fees we are owed. They accuse people of lying when they are in fact the liars. Extremely unethical company. Don’t do business with them.
Honestly this gym seems less crowded now that theres another competitor in town and nearby. But I like this little gym.
Ive only been a member for two weeks, but I really like the gym. The silver sneakers classes are perfect for me. The gym is really clean and the staff is friendly and helpful.
Friendly staff, good set of equipment. Not too busy. Excellent price
Very clean gym with sanitizer and wipes always stocked. Sauna at this location. Large variety of exercise equipment. Ample but not excess amount of cardio equipment. Well balanced.
I really like supporting the small chains, but in this case, their policies and procedures are just too outdated. My credit card was stolen and I had to replace it. All my other billers automatically updated to the new account. I wasn’t notified for 3 months from Accolade that my card was being declined and I was accumulating late fees, as I had been out of town. Whatever, I paid them and cancelled my membership. But in order to do that, I had to pay another 5 1/2 weeks of membership that I didn’t want. All I had was their word that they called the first month and had the wrong number the second month. In this day and age, there are many other ways to get in touch with a person that provides verification the person was actually notified....mail, email, etc. $100 lesson learned. In the future, I’ll stick to the companies who at least know how to send an email.
Love it, slight differences from north to south ends but great gym
Great for weights, good price.
Great gym and polite staff. Its never crowded and the equipment is in very good shape.
Great gym, they close too early. Thought about 3 stars because they let this creepy old guy walk around in inappropriate workout attire.
Im a member of Accolade Fitness on Arrowswest Drive, but love the fact that I can also use this location at no additional charge.Just like the other location it is clean and friendly. They have a little different equipment at this location which makes it nice when I want to change up my workout.Lots of cardio, free weights and machine weights.Like the other gym it has no day care. Thats about the only shortcoming I can find.
Super clean people seem nice and friendly good place to workout for a good price
Good price, has all you need to get a good workout. Good crowd
Love this place. Good machines good vibes my wife and myself enjoy this gym.
After reading the one star rating i just want to say that they are wrong ive never experienced any of what was said. Staff has always been friendly and i have always been greeted as i came in and when i leave. Never have ive seen anyone drop weights or be loud and obnoxious....just saying. If you want a gym where you can work out and not be bothered this is your gym
Nice and affordable. But people walk nude like an animal inside the restroom area which looks really scary
Love this gym!! Great staff and members, top notch equipment and atmosphere
Gym is great Im active duty and stay in the barracks and would rather make the drive to the gym rather then staying on post. Its less packed you can move around and get your workout in.
Great gym with friendly staff. Great variety of classes.
My favorite gym, easy. Great staff. Great members.
Great locally owned gym. Big selection of free weights, cardio and machines
Its my gym, what can i say? its super super clean and they have all of the machines you could ever want!
This place is such a great bargan! Clean, comfrtable, lots of classes offered, multiple free weight areas, dry sauna and tanning.
Nice, clean, no judgement zone. Has tanning beds!! 👍🏼
I like this place a lot. Quiet gym with a great staff.
Sent our letter to cancel twice. Have the documents and everything. Could never get them to stop running our card. Had to get a new card. Very poor customer service.
Great place to work-out never to busy.
This gym is soothing to be at. No bad back ground noise or loud music.Friendly people to chat workout regimes with.
Very low key. Not meat market..
My experience Has been that if you have no morals and integrity and you’re willing to steal from your father of 90 years old I would never ever even think to involve myself that employs people that do this
Ive been working out at this gym for over a year now, they have quality tanning beds, good excessive equipment, and friendly employees.
Some of the machines are a little out dated but the service is absolutely amazing.
Clean, friendly people. Nice equipment.
Clean atmosphere and friendly staff.
Just having fun😉 life is good
Good equipment, not crowded, friendly staff.
