Best gym in Staunton hands down!

The owner, Paige, is impossible to contact and will scam you.

I had been going here for a couple years and had automatic payments set up with my debit card through Paige. Then when I tried to cancel my membership, she responded once or twice, then completely ghosted me. I made several attempts to text and call and never got a response. Her voicemail message essentially says she won't answer phone calls or listen to voicemails.

So although I had already dropped off my keyfob (as the sign on the front door instructs), I was still getting charged. I ended up needing to get a new debit card and cancelling the one that Paige had the info for so she couldn't continue scamming me. I also disputed the payments through my bank so I could get my money back.

As far as the actual gym goes, it's not great. The weight room has no AC, so it's pretty miserable in the warmer months. Seems like there are always machines broken, then Paige will tape up a piece of paper on the wall yelling at the members for breaking her stuff.

At the time of this review:
Monthly membership = $45 (I think this required a 12-month contract)
Yearly dues = $50

I had been going to this gym for almost two years and I loved it. My gym partner and I would go in the mornings and there would be hardly anyone there. Had no issues with the owners until about 2 months ago when I tried to get in with my key fob and it wouldn’t work. I texted both the owners and only one responded. Saying that they had went through everyone’s accounts and about 50% weren’t paying their bill and to contact Page to get it fixed. The thing is that the bill was getting taken out automatically so why wasn’t I notified that something was wrong with my account. Never once changed banks or my debit card so everything was up to date. Looking through my bank statements after the owner told me that, it hadn’t been getting taken out for 5 months. Not my fault if there isn’t some way to pay your membership yourself. Page read my message and never responded back. Would not recommend unless you like a gym where you could be kicked out if the owners don’t keep up with the memberships and blame it on you.

I recommend coming here! Satisfied 100%. Everything you need is here. 10$ for a guess(day) pass. I love the military support (I'm a military brat) and I love the Christian faith support as well. Bathrooms are clean, access to a shower and scale. I came down for the weekend and I'm glad I saw this place before considering going to planet fitness. I wish I had an old school gym like this near home and it's cool they have a kiddie area as well for parents. I'll be back soon for sure, I'd love to meet the owner.

Money can really show a person true colors. At first warren was the realest person I've ever met . Now greed has taken over and won't let one of my brothers train here due to his opinions on the police. DONT COME HERE THEY ONLY WANT YOUR MONEY AND WILL SCREW YOU OVER . Ps warren get rid of the ponytail . Makes you look even more like a pansy

I was a member at Queen City Gym for 3 years and never missed a payment. About 5 months ago my bank had something happen and it automatically paused my monthly charge to the gym. I received an email from Queen City letting me know my payment didn’t process and to please come in and update it. An email and phone number was provided in the message. I texted, emailed and called Paige (the owner of the gym) for 2 months trying to get in touch with her and since my payment didn’t go through my key to get in stopped working. Eventually after months she texted me back and told me she had been in the hospital and that I now owed her $90 for the 2 months I had missed, even though I legitimately could not get in contact with her and couldn’t get into the gym. Long story short she made it impossible for me to get in, therefore making it impossible to update my payment. Eventually after more unanswered calls, more emailing, and more texts the charge had gotten up to $135. I ended up getting in touch with the Better Business Bureau and had them email her, to which she never responded to. I ended up overnight mailing her a certified check and the gym keys 2 days before she could charge me again. I STRONGLY suggest that you stay far away from this gym. You can see my public Better Business Bureau complaint on their website.

I have been a member of Queen city strength sense February or March of this year 2021. I came to this gym after a job change where I found more time to exercise.

I have been a member of previous big Corporation gyms and small gyms.

The weights and equipment that are here are amazing!

I have really gained a lot of progress and learned a lot as well. The atmosphere is amazing and fellow members are always willing to spot you if you need it.

Awesome place!

Don’t waste your time trying to call this place. Nobody ever answers the phone and I tried to cancel my membership for months. Even my bank tried to contact them with no response. After disputing my claim my bank was able to reimburse me my money. I’m just glad to be done with this place.

I am amazed by what Queen City Strength has stepped up and given to our young athletes an opportunity to grow. They are there to help them without hesitation. Page is amazing and has helped me more than I ever imagine. She is not only helping me physically, but she helps you internally, too. She is always is there for an encouraging word and giving you the push to go the extra step. I am very thankful for my Queen City Strength family.

Page and Warren are both very passionate about what they do. They CARE about their members and their community. They offer a variety of classes that are FREE to members. The value of their class instruction cannot be matched anywhere else. It’s like getting free personal training! They make themselves available at any time you need help and they want to see you be successful! The gym is clean, the showers are clean and all the members are friendly and helpful if you need it. It’s a family type very welcoming environment. I highly recommend this gym!

I moved with Queen City during the transition from Staunton Health and Fitness and was disappointed at first but now that I know my way around the equipment I cannot love this place enough. In fact I made the decision a year ago to make a career change and take over the gym, we are not quite where we need to be but we have built a gym family within our community and I am so proud of our progress and excited to see where we go!!!! A huge thank you for all the love and support #queencitystrength #comeseeus

As a guest in the area, I have a directory of gyms I can visit through my insurance. In my travels I go to a lot of different gyms. It's as hard logistically as it sounds.

I was first confused when I drove here because it looks like a dealership. I walked in the wrong door, but was directed to the other side of the building. (one side is cross fit on side is the gym).

I come pretty early so no staff but plenty of patrons. In the front of the house (aka the old showroom) is the cardio equipment. Very good selection and you get big windows to look at Virginia.

I'm the back of the house ( the old shop) is the strength equipment. Nice selection here as well with westside barbell equipment. In the back, back is a punching bag.

Somewhere in the middle is a yoga/stretching room and locker room with showers.

Overall pretty pleased with the set up and it was very unique. I'll probably come back soon.

If you are a weightlifter this is a good place to go but I was only a visitor and former weightlifter. I probably would not train there.
