For the amount of money paid monthly, I expect this gym to be open past 9pm. The more this gym continues to close at 9pm the more it seems absurd that two months of dues here is like a full year at 24 Hour. Pay $2k+ annually to actually be able to use less. Continue to do this and you will lose members out to places that open later, and offer more weight lifting options. Yes, less people go to Bay Club, but only because it is expensive compared to other places that actually aren’t so bad.One thing I noticed was the lack of cleaning sprays and hand sanitizer that other gyms would overly supply. Instead, you get a small packet of wet wipes located in the corners of the facilities, which means that people are likely to not clean after using equipment.Also, members get to “bring guests” (3 passes per month) but explain why it takes 10 minutes to do so every single time. Other places just combine guest pass into the check in process, and it is much better than having either staff not know what they are doing or even the manager getting annoyed at you that you brought a guest.I appreciate the locker room staff and younger staff since they are very nice and try their best to keep things going. But the place is actually understaffed for the size of the place and I’m sure it wears on everyone to be multi-tasking at all times. I’m not surprised when there are times that towels are not ready for a couple hours simply because there aren’t enough people to prepare them.Things were better when it was ClubSport and it didn’t feel like we got our fees raised by 50%. Not sure what the high cost is currently for if less people are actually maintaining the large facility. Definitely try other places before committing to this one.

One in Fremont is most dirties place then other club. They do not so many classes and worse thing is bath rooms are the most dirty hairs are everywhere. They do not cleaning service for couple of months. floor in locker area is very bad. Think twice before you pay so much dues. It looks like other gym where you do not pay so high monthly dues. Is the same here.

We took family membership so that my son and daughter could use the swimming pool and gym before they head out to collage in August. But I was very disappointed by their lack of proper communication and professional courtesy. When we joined they said we will get one free training session and someone would call soon. But nobody called in two months! When I tried to cancel in August, they are now saying it has to be until the end of September. This was not at all communicated well when we joined. Overall, very disappointed by this experience.

This gym comes with a lot of GREAT classes and equipment. It feels more like a club than a gym, it has a very nice pool, multiple courts for multiple sports and is just by far the best gym Ive ever been to.

So I have been looking for a gym that is clean family-friendly yet with clean and beautiful people. That is very difficult to find in the East Bay and less you pay the price. Coming from the peninsula the east bay life is quite different. So if you want your locker to get broken into you can go to 24 hour fitness and go with all the cattle or you can pay a good amount of money yes but if you have the money to go I would totally do it because this is a high class elite gym! I love the fact that I can play tennis inside you can easily reserve the tennis court online or by calling in. I love the fact that the pool is heated year-round. There is a Jacuzzi and they have a steam room and sauna room. I love they offer hot yoga but unfortunately it is extra which I would like all the programs to be included in one fee I have to pay extra for tennis as well again I pay because I pay to go to club that I can take my child feel safe and enjoy being at we can literally spend all day at this facility. Yes you can pay a car payment amount for your family! But it’s our entertainment expense! The staff is very nice I have sat up front actually watching members come in! I think some of the members should remember you come to the gym for a positive attitude so stop dumping your trash attitude at the front desk and dump it before you come in. The staff is really working on their customer service but after repeat attitudes it’s hard to stay positive. Treat others like you want to be treated so I read so many negative reviews about staff and i wanted to see for myself! The staff is awesome from management, instructors, cleaning staff and the kitchen staff. I literally hung out and talked to all members to see for myself! I can’t find anything negative about club sport. Yes it is expensive but that’s not negative it’s a choice! And it weeds out the rif raf. Trust me if you want to go to a place with your family this is a great place!

This club is nice and has all kind of sports. The great thing is that they are adding 5 new squash courts besides the 2 courts they already have. With 7 courts total this will be one of the main clubs for squash and will attract top tournaments and players.

The club used to be good when it is not partner with Bay club. After that, more members came in and the parking place is crowed. They increases membership fee every year and hide it in a link to your email. Be sure to think over before sign anything. They have a lot of policies only benefit themselves. Poor management.

The place looks pretty good but the staff are ridiculously rude and unprofessional, I’ve been to various gyms and I haven’t seen a gym like this with a lack of staff members especially when the staff are extremely racist and not around to help or see if anything is wrong. Have not found any nice ones yet or respectful. I personally don’t recommend you going there and find another one.

The staff members are terrible and treat the club member rudely. The supervisor/manager, Christina G, even tolerates her staff yelling at the members without taking any action or saying any word. No surprise to see so many one star review here.

The facility is good.The membership service people was very nice.The membership cancellation requires 30-day advance notice, which was a surprise to me. Because I was moving out of the area, that means I would have to pay for one extra full month without being about to use it. It was very nice that she agreed to terminate my membership in a week instead of 30 days.

This is a well furnished fitness and sports center that has good service and friendly staff but is quite expensive. However, if you use the facility and their classes, it is well worth it. Their trainers are great. They have many classes that are free for members such as Bombay Jam, and they offer paid classes as well. The staff are friendly and helpful.

I had a great experience in the locker rooms. I did my workout, then relaxed in the locker room. The environment is friendly, and even the members answer questions you have. The staff is fine. I think the machines are quite wonderful, too. The only problem is that I would want more places to keep phones on some of the machines, once, my phone fell of one of the machines;)

Looking forward to be part of Bay club Fremont. Very excited for adding 5 new squash courts. The club facilities looks great. It is awesome that Maha will be the head coach. Maha is an exceptional squash coach. Her experience and passion for the squash on growing squash Athletes is phenomenal. She leads one of the best programs in US.

Since the transition from Club Sport, this place has gone to dumps. Staff is rude, pricing has gone up... been going there for over 6 years and have decided to leave on a sour note because of rude interactions and inflexibility of the new staff... PLEASE DONT JOIN ... not worth hundreds of dollars they charge... NO ONE will help you with machines unless you pay additional for trainers. There is NO VALUE for long time customers.

You definitely pay more than other gyms for membership, but you get a great selection of group exercise classes, friendly customer service at the front desk and throughout the club, and complimentary shower and hand towels.Tip: Come in the morning to avoid the crowd. It doesnt get too busy until 11AM.+Other fee-based classes, such as Rev 32, Edge training and Mind and Body (hot yoga & Absolute Barre).+The cafe downstairs serves Starbucks coffee, beer, and of course freshly made healthy snacks and smoothies.+Child care is available for members at a reasonable priceIf you decide to put your account on hold (at a ridiculous price by the way) or cancel your membership, you have to notify membership services 30 days in advance.

If you are trying to play basketball, this is not the place. Courts are full of hogs, badminton games are being played in half of the courts so they dont let you shoot hoops or anything, Saturday mornings, theres kids training around the whole thing so you cant play, theres always some type of private class so they dont let you use certain baskets, youre lucky if you find available courts. Other than that, great place

They have really gone down hill since Bay club took over. Prices are up and they are cutting way back on classes. The remaining classes are very over crowded.

If you can tolerate crowds (adults and children) this gym is fantastic. It has that family vibe that makes the gym non- threatening. Its huge with so many options! I literally got lost there today!

Dont join this club and dont trust the sales! My sales didnt told me theres a promotion that if I prepaid for one year and I can get 2 months for free. Me and my friend asked him for this promotion and he promised to give us but regretted after we had already signed the documents and gave my credit card number!They lie and they dont deserve customers trust! I will cancel my membership this month.

We have been members since the inception of this gym. This gym is phenomenal as far as classes, staff and facility is concerned. Both my kids grew up involved in inter-club swim meets and tennis. They are now both professional adults inculcaled to great health habits due to this gym. Any place (including our homes) will occasionally appear untidy or dirty after heavy usage but the staff is on top of keeping it clean. It is a life style for us now, where my husband loves playing tennis, I love exercising here and have great friends/support. When my kids are visiting Clubsport Fremont with their friends occasionally, the latter have described the place as phenomenal too! Now that is unbiased opinion!

Ive been a member here for about 10 years so Ill just provide a list of pros and cons Ive noticed about this place:Pros:Clean locker rooms with digital locks so you dont have to carry around a key or lockClean weight room with a good number of free weights (4 squat racks, 3 bench press, 1 decline bench press, 2 incline bench press)A lot of group training classes all throughout the dayJacuzzi, steam room, and sauna in the locker roomTVs all over the placeNice staffLots of tennis courtsNew crossfit gym with a lot of different equipment thats okay to use when theres no classes going onCons:Can get crowded in the weight room, especially when people get off workParking lot can get crowdedBasketball courts can get pretty crowded especially because theres usually only one court running gamesLittle kids running around the locker rooms can be pretty annoyingLap pool is always crowded because swim team practices run pretty oftenPretty expensive compared to 24 hr fitness and other chains in FremontOverall, definitely recommend coming here if youre within 15 minutes driving distance. Also it might be hard to get here during rush hours if you live in San Jose, but I hear theyre opening a branch up there in the near future so I would definitely consider that.

The club is very good overall.Pros: The classes and instructors are top- notch. I have met some good friends from classes here, which is very much valued. The facility is spacious and you can always find a place to work out, unlike some of the cheaper places in town where every machine is taken by 6 pm. It is generally a very nice place, and they do get new equipment regularly. The pool is great.Cons: 90% of the problems are caused by 8% of the members, who are rude or clueless slobs and dont follow accepted hygiene standards. Examples: members who take 3 towels, leaving no towels for members arriving later to the gym. Teenage, female, Asian swim club members who leave wet towels and clumps of black hair all over the floor and in the showers. Asian women who use the hairdryers on their feet and crotches. Lasseiz- faire parents who put non- potty - trained toddlers in the spa. Some people are oblivious to other club members, and cause problems. But the gym is so highly used there are bound to be some problems.General issues:The club could be more timely addressing maintenance issues. The club is always annoyingly trying to push additional revenue - enhancing schemes and additional- fee classes on the members. This does lead to some ( justified) paranoia among long- term members that their favorite classes might be cancelled for an added- fee kiddie class. The management can be jerks, suddenly imposing non- competitive rules on their instructors, who may rely on also working elsewhere to earn health care benefits. The parking lot is not adequate at peak evening times. I wish they would put a strong fan in the womens shower area to vent the steam, to make it less humid. That place is a fungus pit. But I believe I get a lot from my membership here and plan to stay here as long as I can afford it.

The spacious space design, rich facilities and courses, providing cleaning equipment and even bath tubs are prices that have been rising and there is obvious sweat in the air.
