Great gym. The new owners have done an amazing job, with new equipment, a remodeled bathroom, and keeping the place clean.

Nevada iowa spoiled me. This gym has only 1 piece of equipment I used before no ab or back machine.. no ballet bar, no where to stretch. Has an old tan bed, but its better than nothing. It's a very small size area with too much equipment. People are bumping into one another, its not handicapped accessible as a flight of stairs to a workout area. The manager is super nice. The place is very clean. Just outdated with no space. Tons of bathrooms tho. I do love the treadmills. It could use air circulation. Like I said better than nothing but dang go to Nevada s gym next town over. You'll gasp at how sweet it is. Tyler does a good job he can even moonwalk, ..I think I taught him how! Ames has a need for a decent gym. Not sure why I cant find one in this little college town... but I cant drive to Nevada just to find a decent gym. Get an ab macine..you don't need that many weight equipment stuff. Vs other machines ypu don't even offer.

Hands down the dirtiest anytime I've been to I'm Iowa. The room sweats very easily so if you're into salty atmospheres, you'll love this place. Not a lot of equipment but enough to get an alright work out in. If you're a kettle bell fan, not the place for you. There is also no green space, nor yoga mats.
It's just not a well taken care of gym but if you're in a crunch it'll do. Stay away from the shower, it looks like it has rabies.

Its a dump. The employees are really nice, never had a problem with other members, but the place is a dump. Weigh sets that don't match, broken down equipment, damaged walls and floors. Boone isn't that much further away, and it's night and day between them. Management is absolutely lovely, so I hate to write this even more, but it's just the truth. Not a great gym, would not recommend unless it's the literal last option. Sorry, guys. :(

I’ve been trying to cancel my membership for a while now! The phone number listed doesn’t work and they don’t respond to emails. Corporate keeps giving this location 24 hour periods to respond and get back to them (or me) and they don’t. Severely unprofessional on this branch’s part. Also, after four calls to the 1-800 number for the company, I was finally told that if they don’t respond (for the fourth time), they’ll finally cancel my membership. Go anywhere but here!

Only giving 3 because it was clean but there is no equipment here. I'm used to a huge anytime fitness so this one sucks. Feels like I'm working out in a hotel trying to modify everything.

Not a great gym. Theres an okay variety of equipment, but most of it is old, plus the place is just too cramped to have anything else anyway. There is absolutely no airflow, just two dinky floor fans for the entire place. Restrooms are pretty gross, same with the equipment. make sure you bring your own water because the water from the fountain tastes like rusty nails.

The layout of the equipment , could be better . Plus not a whole lot of weight plates . Does have a trap bar so that is a plus in my book .

I call this gym Sometime Fitness because of how many times I've gone there and the door's malfunctioned and locked everyone out.

Edit: Actually, they've fixed the door so it doesn't malfunction anymore. Besides the issues with the drinking water it's a nice little gym.

Pretty upset with anytime and will never get another gym membership with them again. Going on 5 months of me trying to cancel my membership with them. Call them twice a month to cancel it and they always tell me they are and it never happens.

Not as upper crust as Ames Racquet and Fitness, but it does the job. Plenty of cardio machines and weights as well as a sweet open space upstairs. You're best served bringing your own water, but there is bottled water for 50 cents in case you forget. The water fountain is universally shunned due to taste. I figure whatever is going on with the water taste may be cost prohibitive to fix or is a city utility problem. TLDR Good. Not top shelf. But still good.

Stephanie is never in the office I call so many times everytime I have a question or when it’s emergency she is never in the office and she gets paid for not being in the office even went there during business hours and she wasn’t there. Horrible staffing she has to get fired

Stephanie is the only reason I continue to come to the specific gym. SHe is the reason for the last year that I have battled the mental struggles of coming to a gym. Her constant efforts to help others and myself are the reason why the gym deserves 5 stars. He also keeps the gym in pristine condition :). THANK YOU.
The owner is a huge jerk.

Good gym, has 2 squat racks, could use one / two more benches as the benches are split between 3 racks and the dumbbell section. The upstairs is a nice warm up area with plenty of space, mats, and other miscellaneous machines/equipment. There is a variety of the main muscle machines and a good number of treadmills. There could be a platform of some kind for deadlifts and cleans though which is disappointing. Overall a pretty good gym.

I've been to a lot of any time fitness's and this one was not anything special. The weights were old, there is no cell reception to download workouts, the lighting is a little dark.

All the equipment is in terrible shape, water is undrinkable and the have the udacity to try and charge you for water. The radio is always blasting static and you can't get on the wifi unless you go during the hours they work which is ridiculous. The gym is an absolute joke. Guess that's what happens when you have a husband and wife working together. They take it as a joke and don't care how it does. Reporting this gym to local health inspection. It is not safe physically and chemically. Brown water out of everything, that is not healthy by any means.

Bring your own water -water from the water fountain is GROSS!
1 of the 5 treadmills they have has been broken for 3 months. I've asked a staff member once and was told they were working on it. A month later I sent an email to the franchise to inquire again, was told it would be a couple weeks.. it's already been down for 3 months!!
Limited equipment, stuff they have is not in great shape.

PLEASE REPLACE THAT FOUNTAIN THE WATER TASTES LIKE RUST. I am not going to pay you any money for water. You spend the resources purchasing a mini fridge and restocking it with water rather than fixing your water fountain? Not very consumer friendly. The space people are given is very small and sometimes it gets crowded. The layout indicates that the square footage does simply not suffice.

This is by far the worse anytime i have been to. I travel around the midwest for work and this is a horrible gym. The toilets seem to not flush leaving them with feces in them. The water is borderline undrinkable and they charge you for a bottle of water, equipment is very unclean and neglected. my arm was cut by a wire sticking out of the leg extension machine. I keep giving it the benefit of the doubt but my wife and i will not be returning to the gym. The one star is just so i can post this. It is not even 1 star worthy.

Looks like an older building. Shower kinda cramped into a corner. Water was rusty flavored. But OK set of free weights, and the cardio equipment seemed pretty recent. Has a inclined Smith machine don't care for them. OK workout not busy during the day.
