Anytime Fitness — Local services in Buda

I'm not usually one to leave a negative review for a business, unless I feel it's warranted. I've got to say, this is the worst Anytime Fitness location I've been to.

Issues I noticed: 1.) Every TV on the cardio machines has literally 1 working channel (fox) and every other channel is broken static, which when flipping through channels you're blasted with deafening white noise if you had headphones plugged in.

2.) Wi-Fi is misconfigured/not working. Signing into the Wi-Fi OR using the Guest Wi-Fi will take you to an ISP sign in page instead of allowing you to access internet. This means you have to use your phone data if you want to use it there, and the reception is horrid given the location of the gym.

3.) 2/3 of the elliptical machines I used had loose bolts/parts which would rock the machine around while using it - a sign the machines and equipment rarely ever receive proper maintenance. Disappointing and dangerous. .

4.) Many of the machines, especially the treadmills, are covered in dirt and grime, I couldn't even find wet wipes available to wipe down equipment.

5.) As others have mentioned: They are missing several weight lifting machines/equipment which you will find at other Anytime locations

If this were a gym that charges $10/month, I wouldn't be here writing this. But the fact that Anytime charges ~$45/month. It's clear whoever is in charge of this location has neglected most aspects of a proper gym. Buyer beware. ....

I am not a person that gives bad reviews lightly.

However, I need to warn others that we have a possible scam issue. It has now been 3 months since my visit to cancel my membership and I've been charged each month the full fee. The staffed hours on the website are not adhered to and there are no returned calls as I've asked for help. I have had contact with the staff (a trainer onsite) and the response was he would refund the first two months and send a confirmation email. That never happened. It's on me that I didn't get any of this in writing, but it should never be this hard.

To top it off...today, I've received an email that I need to update my credit card on file as it will be expiring at the end of the month from the finance company they use. I'm out $125+ so far....this is infuriating. I will visit again tomorrow and start getting more parties involved.

After visiting the consumer affairs website, this is all too common for this company. Please be warned.

For the gym experience: it was OK and serviceable for the first few years. It has become quite dirty on the machines I've used and needs a...

Edit: I’ve since changed my opinion of the gym. The once obnoxious teens have unfortunately befriended me, though as a benefit, they are now more tolerable to be around which makes working out after 8:00pm a less miserable experience.

This gym would definitely benefit from having another Smith Machine, and possibly a plate loaded iso-lateral low-row machine, but it’s still a great location without those items.

Original Review: The facility and staff are five stars. If I could split the rating, I certainly would.

The biggest downside to this location is that droves of teenagers flock to this gym in groups after hours. They’re obnoxious, loud, sit and crowd around the equipment just to talk and play on their phones, and they make being at this gym in the evening a pretty miserable experience.

Again, it’s no fault of the staff. The gym is fantastic when...
