Love the small feel and it's close to my home so it's very convenient. They have everything that I need to get the job done!

If you're looking to workout anytime this is the place for you. Being 24/7, popular so you don't feel alone, and having the essentials for a descent workout is a quick in and out day for me. When I'm not looking for tanning/swimming I visit this 24 hour stop!

I've been a member of The AK Club for about a month now, and I couldn't be happier with my experience. The classes offered are fantasticβ€”there’s something for everyone, from high-energy workouts. The instructors are knowledgeable and motivating, making each class enjoyable and rewarding.
Accessibility is another strong point for this gym. It's designed with everyone in mind, ensuring that all members can easily navigate the space and participate in classes. This commitment to inclusivity truly sets it apart.
The amenities are top-notch as well. From clean locker rooms to well-maintained equipment, it’s clear that the management cares about providing a great environment for its members.
Overall, AKC has created an all-inclusive experience that makes working out enjoyable. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a supportive and welcoming fitness community!

Says they're 24 hours.
Got a guest pass online.
They send you a bar code to scan.

Show up.. the scan doesn't work.
No one's working there.

Took an uber there. Wasted my trip. And my morning. And money. To stand in the cold at the door until another uber came.

Thanks Alaska Club.

Update*
They call and text me 2-3 times week despite my clearly asking them to stop calling me.

The 24 hour express gym does not offer towels for showering or yoga mats in the studio.

The equipment is beyond old. Two of us were on 4 different cardio machines and had to move because they were not working properly. One shut down completely!!! I have written on board to have them fixed but nothing happens! I get the Alaska Club east got a new make over but it would be nice if West could get some updated cardio equipment!

My days are super busy with work, kids, and activities - the AK Club's zoom workout for Group Power fits with my schedule and the trainers are AMAZING. I feel energized and productive without feeling like it's adding to my hectic day.

Predatory and deceptive business practices. Outdated equipment, and parts of buildings in disrepair. Don’t give them their number or they will call you forever.

I love this club. I have met wonderful workout friends. We use the back classroom every day. We are there 5-6 days a week.

Dave keeps the old equipment functioning.

The only problem is the club needs daily cleaning. Sometimes we have to clean the floors before putting our mats down. I purchased mops that attach to our shoes and we mop the floors before exercising.

Thank you for asking my opinion.

The Alaska Club Fairbanks West is a great place to work out. Quiet, no kids running around. Everyone is friendly. My only complaint regarding the club is it is filthy. Floors don't get cleaned enough. I have left several messages ( along with others) on the whiteboard but messages get erased then nothing happens. Dave who works on the machines is on top of it! I would suggest we hire someone to clean the gym properly!

The place is 8/10 times filthy. The equipment compared to the south location, is hand me down quality AT BEST. For the price we pay a month for a Family($165)... it's nearly not worth it but because of limited options (which AK CLUB knows)... they're out to take advantage of most of us here in FAI. Like I said, limited options and due to location some of us have no choice. For the price all of us pay... you'd think a janitor is affordable beyond minimum wage and effort, and some major equipment upgrades.

If you're thinking of getting membership , they start charging u right away and if u want to cancel they add all these fees adding to 500 if u want to leave. Not worth it

Not worth what I pay for the month for the membership. But, when they're the largest gym in Fairbanks, other than going on post, they can get away with prices. West location isn't bad, decent weights, dumbbells and cardio. Cleaning though is hit or miss, someone comes about 4am, I see him sometimes and done within an hour. Usually I clean up around the large cable set most mornings.

Back room is usually quiet and good selection of weights. Equipment is slightly outdated.

Great little gym altho not worth the 80 a month they want for access to ONLY this facility. A nice extra when you opt for the full membership to the main club tho. Particularly if you live on the west side of town like I happen to. Clean and well kept. Variety of equipment.

While smaller and with fewer amenities than the bigger location, this one is always less busy when I've come and always clean.

Love the place and atmosphere! However, would like the see the squat rack bolted to the floor. It migrates towards the stair climbers every couple of weeks. The only way to move it back is to clear it of all weights and physically move it back to a safe area. Also, members would benefit greatly from an updated more conductive to effective overall total body workout smith machine.

Our family has been members several times. And because of the lack of competition in town (24hr gym), we find ourselves back again.
They sold us on the pool (pretty hard to find in fbx), night gym, and tanning beds @ both facilities.
I really hate posting this, but it seems the facility is being abandoned. The tanning bed in the 24 hr gym has been inoperable since we signed up in yhe spring. The bathroom is consistently dirty- not new "acute" messes, rather dust bunnies allowed to accumulate until they reach sweater making proportions. The urinal is sharp to your nose, and by the time you're done- your eyes sting. The water fountain / bottle refiller looks ... contagious.

There is a whiteboard for members to write concerns on- which routinely gets "cleaned". Be the issues never really seem to be addressed.

Equipment problems are not the issue here. Sure, there are a few machines in various stages of maintenance- but I can accept that. A month ago, my wife and I had a trip to Anchorage and went to Alaska Club West (also 24hr) down there. We were somewhat emotional when it came time to leave... straight up sad actually- because what we pay monthly (family platinum- close to $200) would is TOTALLY worth it in anchorage- absolutely beautiful facilities with up-to-date machines... and CLEAN TOO.

Forced to shower and shave under filthy conditions. Skin droppings in the showers, grease stains on the walls, hairs all over the floor of the showers. Toilet overflowing onto the floor because the staff refuses to maintain it. Very gross conditions to shave shower and use the restroom under. Old refused machines, not properly maintained. Not a good club for the money, rudeness and hostility directed towards the patrons.

Best gym in town! New management has really helped turn it back into an enjoyable place to be.The cleaners are busy everywhere you go inside and are very considerate of members. Cassandra gave us a thorough tour and was very knowledgeable about all of the recent upgrades. Our interaction with her was very pleasant, never pressured. So happy to be back!

West location is a very nice small gym perfect for on-the-go workouts . Iv been a memeber for years!! The only concern is, that the SO called MANAGER at the west club. Does NOT DO HiS JOB. Only thing iv seen him do is pick up the hand towels and even then he leaves all the dirty towels in the basket for days., only 10 new towels a day!!! The cleaning Lady's keep the gym usually clean. West club (needs new management) ... SOUTH club is amazing.

They lie through their teeth about membership & wont give any info over the phone. Some staff good, some very douchy & unprofessional. Outrageous monthly fees, triple that of any comparable NICE club Ive been a member of. Their west location is not staffed- what kind of business practice is that!?!? They said no one under 18 is allowed there, as kids were doing drugs in the bathroom. Are there no idiot adults!?!? Maybe have a staff member there!?!? Morons. Kids need showers too.. maybe take responsibility for your business & its locations & what goes on there.. until then, dont bother considering this place as a gym or showering option. Ridiculous!!

Turf room is no longer as the trampoline buisness now occupies space but no price drop, chronic broken steam room, overcrowded locker room, inconsistent group workout instruction. We are thinking of cancelling membership as its lost value for our family.
