I was considering joining, so I wanted to read the reviews. The owner’s responses to the poor reviews are concerning. Super immature and unprofessional. No thanks.

I enjoy going to the gym since I started AF.
It’s not crowded, it’s clean, the equipment is nice (I saw some reviews that mentioned the equipment was damaged but that is not longer the case), and it’s nice and cool in here.
John was very responsive and helped me to enroll quickly and was really helpful.
Overall, I prefer this gym compared to other local ones.

I had signed up to this place a month or two prior to the grand opening. Thought the guy was cool at first. Little did I know he signed me up and charged me monthly when the gym was still ways from inauguration. I came in person to talk things through. Guy was petty and acting like it was my problem. That's just unprofessional, poor character and childish attitude.

I hit this gym every day in the AM, and it’s been amazing! Clean, contactless entry, and open 24/7. The members are respectful, no one hogs the machines, and the vibe is always positive. Highly recommend for anyone serious about their fitness grind! 💪✨

Las máquinas están descuidadas, los baños sucios. Tiene área de lockers para dejar tus cosas, en la parte superior están las maquinas de cardio. Todo lo demás esta en el primer piso, hay suficiente estacionamiento

I dont go here, I just did a tour. It reminds me of the gym I had in our wrestling room; enough equipment to get a lift in, stinks like sweat, and no frills. I like these types of places causes you wont have 20 teenagers standing by the bench press and its dirt cheap cause you arent paying for a pool/sauna/basketball court/etc. Then I found out its $40 a month. 24 hour/LA fitness is cheaper and you get more, it just doesnt make sense to go here.

I would give it 5 stars if the music played in the gym wasn’t so loud you could hear it through noise canceling air pods. Great equipment it’s not as packed as other gyms 24 hour access is a plus

They refused to cancel my membership. I've notified them in writing twice (luckily I kept documentation for a credit card charge back). They never answer their phone. I'll dispute the charges.

If you do sign up, be sure to use a credit card and not a debit card so you can do a charge back.

The gym itself is mid, they don't even have 2.5 lb plates. Only gym I've had to bring my own weights to, lol.

Decent gym but the management specifically the owner is horrible,changes gym rules on the spot and let’s other get away with the same rules their suppose to enforce on others. Honestly avoid this gym until new management takes over.

So the gym is spacious and clean. Front door does not fully shut and lock, so people just walked in without scanning. One lady walked her friend in as if it was a normal day. Members did not rack their weights. I have been to a lot of ATF locations and this was below normal standards.

I love this gym. It's never too crowded no matter what time I go. I particularly like the abundance of squat/power racks. You don't have to wait around to get your work in.

Ive been to several AF locations, and this is definitely one of the largest ones Ive seen. I was surprised to see equipment that I haven’t seen at other places too, so that was a plus! Compared to other regular gyms, it’s standard. However, compared to other Anytime Fitness locations, it was just okay and could do with some improvements.

Pros:
Ample equipment and squat racks
Olympic platforms & bumper plates
Not crowded

Cons:
Grimy and neglected
(had dark stuff rub off onto my arms that made my shower water brown, weights all over the floor or piled in corner, tears on machine cushions, a single sanitizing wipe dispenser-all others were empty/broken, dingy bathroom)
Music was loud and unwelcoming
No clocks anywhere
No designated stretching area
Seemingly a lack of community engagement/care (classes, events, challenges, clarity over gym etiquette)

Is it a good, standard gym? Yes.
Would I choose this AF location over others in the North County area? No.

Five stars for what it is...maybe 4 overall if it's not your scene. This is AF's answer to a dungeon gym...nice but with a vibe as a place for hard men and hard women (or those on their journey to become so) listening to hard music to get...more. There is no studio space for yoga or pilates, there is no wasted space for cross fit shenanigans. You come to this gym to lift and lift hard with an intensity to get things done.

Are there skid marks on the floor? Chipped plaster on the walls? Do the sink faucets make you think you're going to be electrocuted? Yes to all that but the equipment is well maintained, clean and plentiful. The former is just character and there's something to be said for having a gym that isn't too sterile and pristine. This gym wears it's scars with pride because it shows people are doing the work and sometimes even the most conscientious of us chip a wall...in order to break through another type of wall altogether.

This gym is not for everybody, but if you are looking for a place to get the work done, full of like minded ppl, this might be the place for you.

Gym ambiance cool but this place needs serious renovations. The gym is usually clean but the rain has made this place almost unsafe because of leaks. For the monthly fees they charge, I would expect a better level of maintenance of this gym.

Been trying to cancel membership for months. Can only leave a voicemail and no one calls you back. Stay away they take your money and won’t let you cancel. Feels like a scam!

STAY AWAY! This location never has any employees in office, tried to cancel, no one there or they never answer the phone or return calls. Dont think about calling customer service as they cant do anything to help, pretty much useless.

Not sure where to begin. Walked into the gym today after being absent for about a month. Key fob wasn't working. Called phone number posted on door. Employee walked up to the door and escorted me to the office. He proceeded to ask me for my key fob, ID, and ATM card. When I asked why? He said they're no longer using old key fobs, and the new key fobs required a cost of $10 dollars more a month. Dumbfounded, I asked why ?

I'm sure a lot of you out there joined this specific gym because a year before they even opened they had sales guys in the local shopping center recruiting potential clients. That's all well and good. Most of us joined not even knowing what the gym would even look like. The main selling point for me was the $19.99 a month guarantee.

Now it's $29.99! Take it, or leave it! So, I left it. Doesn't make sense to pay $29.99 for Anytime Fitness, when LA Fitness charges the same, with tons more amenities.To put the icing on the cake. I just paid my annual fees and monthly payment, yet the employee refused to refund my money and didn't even let me workout.

Next email going to Corporate, followed with a complaint to the Better Business Bureau!

UPDATE:

Went in because my son mentioned they had new management. Had a long conversation with new manager. Manager showed empathy and compassion to my previous situation. Even waived the start up fee! Long story short. Resigned with gym and feel good about it.

I love this little hidden gem of a gym! If you’re looking for a gym, this one is pretty bomb! Lots of great equipment, plenty of cardio, machines and free weights! There are restrooms with showers both upstairs, and downstairs. It’s always kept warm so you can keep your muscles warm, even on the coldest days and they play great music to boot! TV’s are everywhere, including on the screens of the cardio equipment. You can also hook your phone up to their machines via the Connect App, that will keep up with your cardio goals and will show you how to use any of the machines if you’re unsure. But what I love most is that the manager there, Felipe, is always so supportive when he sees me come in! It’s nice to get that kind of encouragement, and it makes me want to go back. Can’t beat the monthly price either. So much better than any of those BIG gyms. I highly recommend!
