After reading some other reviews I do not feel so alone in the way I was manipulated to sign up. Firstly I am disabled and a senior. I went to their gym just to find out prices and how it worked, I am on a fixed income and even an extra 10 bucks a month has to be somehow worked into my budget. To make a long story short I was pressured and manipulated to sign papers that I couldnt see or understand ( cataracts) and pressured for my debit card info with the promise nothing would be taken out for a month. It was taken out immediately I learned after going to the grocery store and have my debit card declined because of it so had to skim by without milk , bread, and what have you for that week. Canceled card so no more could be taken out and called to cancel. Two years later getting collection for over 300 dollars and wanting me to come in to cancel pay the 300 plus 75 cancelation. Anuway now being pressured to pay all this money for something not used or even wanted now. I do not bend to high pressire sales tactics or threats of collections. I am making a report to the ohio dept of aging over this matter. Why would someone make this up? I have nothing to gain...

If you have been in any other gym you would know that this one is pretty sub-par. True you cannot beat the price of $10/month, but that is only a deal if you can overlook cleanliness, worker enthusiasm, and broken equipment.

I've more than once brought up the sauna condition to who I can only assume is the owner. Gum, bandaids, months of dirt and dust are caked on its heater system. The tile around the drain, that is higher than the floor so they can not hose out the room, is crumbling. The fix, a rubber mat over the drain for over a year now. The shower are pretty horrible as well.

Some equipment is missing pins even the connectors for different bars so they just sit there. Found gum and a wadded paper towel in one of the cardio machine, told the people at the front desk and it didn't get cleaned for weeks.

Those that are working are too envolved in Facebook, eachother or getting a quick workout in on the clock to refill the spray bottles or paper towel despensers.

Like I said can beat the price, but greatly lower your expectations. I hope that they close and another, more reputable gym moves in. ONE STAR...

I did a 7 day trail and on the first day noticed all the weights for any lifting bars were ruined. This makes it impossible to know what weight is actually being lifted. They also stated they had boxing but instead it was kick boxing. The best part about this gym is that it is very close and I could walk there. I would have still signed up however like most gyms should I need the cancel the process would be very difficult. Even though I wanted to pay the whole year in advance. I see people were still getting charged after their term expired if they don’t walk in or write a letter for cancellation. That seems very sketchy since it shows 1 year on the website. I’m more skeptical of gyms due to the hidden fees and misleading advertising. This gym is no different. I give it two stars for confidence and pricing. The staff tried to spin words saying boxing and kick boxing is the same and that they would repair the equipment but I knew that time wouldn’t come within the year if...
