Guess when I go to the gym. That's right....ANYTIME! This is one of the best Anytime Fitness clubs I've been to. They have so many treadmills and the place is VERY clean. Get off your butt and come workout....yeah....ANYTIME!

I used this gym for a few months in 2022, cancelled my membership because I was moving and filled out all the paperwork. 2025 they sent me to collections for years of unpaid membership fees even though I had canceled. They do not answer the phone, and there is never anyone at this location to speak with. I previously spoke with a Colin price who β€œsaid” he’d take care of this but has not. Do not go here or support this location.

UPDATE 2025-05-15: Reduced from 5s to 2s. This gym is no longer being maintained at anywhere near the same level of quality it was a few years ago. It's often dirty, equipment is disorganized, broken, or missing. The new pricing model (not specific to this location) is also much more predatory; it's intended to make it easier to pause your membership but because of staffing issues it's difficult to get in contact with the office.

ORIGINAL REVIEW:

Very clean, plenty of equipment. The staff are extremely helpful. Austin is an amazing personal trainer!

Please, update your equipment. Don’t buy if you don’t intend to Upgrade. Also, there are many many options that do tend to their gym and their members and don’t just view it as β€˜passive income’. We don’t need that in Maine.

I joined Anytime Fitness earlier this year. I focused on Functional Movement strength training activities. I worked with 2 personal trainers there (1 more extensively than the other.) I worked mostly with Elizabeth (she's since been promoted within the company). She spent a great amount of time getting to know me before we started. She clearly understood my goals, my challenges, and my abilities brie we got started. I met with her 3 times per week. It was like working with a physical therapist. I experienced a great combination of functional strength training exercises with cardio incorporated throughout. She was exceptional about ensuring I did all of the exercises with proper form and optimal results. She's a wonderful person who was an absolute pleasure to work with! I've tried personal trainers at other gyms. The ones at Anytime Fitness are head and shoulders above the rest!

I have been a member at Anytime Fitness since 2019. The personal trainers at the gym are amazing and they are the reason I am still there. The gym overall is very tired. Cardio machines are not being repaired or replaced. One bike has been broken a year. The second bike which is heavily used makes a clunking sound as you peddle. You cannot put any resistance or speed on it, which makes it useless. The owners/director of the gym are aware and have made minimal improvements. They want new members but do not make the needed investments in equipment to attract new members. It’s a shame. The location is prime and the gym has a welcoming atmosphere. The potential is there, unfortunately the owners aren’t listening.

SCAM ALERT! It's impossible to cancel your membership! They are impossible to reach. I drop a letter that they received I have a picture of it laying on the managers desk. I ask them to call me to confirm and they do not bother, good luck trying to leave a voicemail or reach them.

The equipment is clean but if you ever cannot afford payment due to loss of residency with proof or any other legitimate reason the gym will not allow you to cancel your membership and will only allow you to push your month's owed back.

This means you are on the hook for a full year, barring some severe change in medical status.

Before signing up here, know they will want their full year no matter life changes.

I used to recommend this gym, and I was planning on renewing at the end of my year.

Just get the planet fitness membership. The one in Portland Maine is 24/5

Horrible customer service via contract. I gave 1 month notice, agreed to pay bi weekly until the contract ended. There is a $25 β€˜midyear maintenance fee’ which the manager could have waived that would have been charged last week of my contract. I begged & pleaded for the manager to wave that fee due to financial struggles and he refused! I had to call my bank and fortunately they stopped the one-time payment 😊 So I won in the end! The managers lack of emotion, poor customer service, & robotic reaction to a reasonable request of waiving a fee when I was no longer going to be using the facility - fell on deaf ears.

Visiting Maine for two weeks, I hit this AF location during the front end and again on the day of our departure.
Plenty of free parking in a shopping strip along a main road on both visits on weekdays about 8am
There were a dozen patrons in there at any time during my workout, so plenty of room and no competition for space and equipment.
This gym size and equipment selection is very comparable to all 4 of the the Anytime Fitness locations I've been to, which makes it easy to execute your planned work-out without too much hunting and pecking. The key fob works just the same, too.
All the equipment were in good shape, and the place was clean and in orderly condition.
My one gripe is that someone felt the need to keep the big doors in the classroom open to the outside when it was a muggy 70F, making that room and that nearby end of the gym needlessly sweaty.

It is sad that I have to resort to the hope that a 1 star review is how I can hear from someone.

I have attempted to cancel my membership time and time again, through a "corporate" office which was useless, I haven't heard from ANYONE, I stop payments through my bank, since they won't let you use any other payment method, and all of a sudden my phone and email is busy with people looking for answers- but they can't help me cancel the membership, they just want to collect.

I enjoyed the gym when I was there, I moved away, take the L and cancel my membership. Even if I move back, I will never step foot into an Anytime Fitness.

Am in town for one month. Needed a gym to cover me while I am here. Called and left a message, called again during office hours no answer, called again and still no answer. Went in person and was met with a rude man who smugly said he did not offer one month memberships. Difficult to deal with obviously and not welcoming or adaptive anyone who has gym needs other than a one year membership.

Would never do business with them again. Covid hit and I couldn't travel to Portland anymore which was an hour away for me. Would they cancel? No!

So I completed the contract and told them I don't want their services anymore. They said I had to come in and sign something which is bull. They want to try and get you to sign another contract. I told them to email it to me. They did and I signed it and sent it back. They didn't process it and charged me again. I disputed the charges and that was that.

I have similar sentiments to some who have left reviews. It’s not worth the money, or the absurd contract that they bamboozle you into signing. I had no idea that no matter what life circumstances are sent your way, you cannot cancel, and they will drain every last penny from your bank account. I have an ongoing back injury that has recently prevented me from going to the gym, and although they did β€œfreeze” my account for a few months, unless you’re considered completely disabled you can not cancel. The gym itself is also extremely limited as far as equipment. Overall DO NOT recommend.

Wholly dishonest company with a deplorable business model. Warning about the absurd 24 month contract that they snake you into. If you are ever in an unexpected, dire financial state where you can no longer afford basic necessities within that 2 years, these jerks will continue charging your bank account regardless of if there is money in there or if you are starving or homeless. I was in a very tough spot and was out of work because of covid and had several other issues going on and, no matter how much i plead with them, they would not cease billing me. Not only have they lost a potential future member in me, I will actively be recommending people to not sign up with this gym. I hope they will understand how fatally flawed this type of shortsighted business practice is. It will catch up with them. Side note: The gym is in very bad shape. A lot of the equipment is very old and and poorly calibrated. The ventilation is poor, and their zoo-style surrounding windows leaves no option for any sort of privacy from the public. Generally an uncomfortable place to be.

my husband and I joined this gym last winter, during the pandemic. this anytime location was very clean and a great gym for us to get back into lifting after some time off. the staff and other gym goers are pleasant. having 24/7 access and the central location are both great perks. at the busiest times, some equipment is harder to get time on because of demand (i.e. squat rack / smith machine). overall, it is a nice gym

I probably would’ve given this place a 4 star review (clean, easy to access, etc) prior to moving and attempting to cancel my membership. I had heard through a couple others that cancelling here was a challenge, but I was blissfully unaware and said β€œbet that won’t happen to me.” I was naive.

The lack of communication in my attempt to get a hold of someone to cancel a month-to-month membership has been a real trip. After 1 month of multiple emails and voicemails to the South Portland branch, I had to reach out to their corporate office to finally get my membership cancelled and the auto pay that went with it. However, I’m now on month 3 and waiting for an answer as to why I have been charged an additional month when my plan was month-to-month.

If I were you I’d save the $20/month and the ease of getting a hold of someone and just drive over the bridge to Planet Fitness.

Cost $580 per year. Solid gym. Clean & convenient. FYI = The staff does not answer the phone much of the time, and they did not inform me of the 2x per year $50 fee; so it was $40/month for 12 months, plus $100 in fees.

I recently joined and can see results already. The personal trainer Eric is the best and I really enjoyed the time and attention he took with my evaluation. I have special exercise needs and he let me try out which equipment suits my workout. The manager was informative and kind. I especially like the individual dressing/shower rooms, because I was not looking forward to a common locker room. Highly recommended.
