It's a nice gym that is reasonably priced. I've been a member for about 3 weeks now. Yes, some things are a little dated, but not the equipment and more importantly to me, the facility is clean. Staff and other members (so far) have been friendly. This is not a gym where I feel like I do not belong, which I have experienced at other gyms. On two occasions I left things behind and they have been in the lost and found, which I appreciate. I also appreciate the parking situation. If you don't find a spot right away, fear not-- happened once and I circled the block and when I came back there were 2 spots. Maybe that's just luck.

My only gripes so far are that 1. I find the mens locker room to be cold (especially when getting out of the shower). I'm hoping as the weather gets cooler they will turn on some heat. 2. The steam room has been down for about a week now which is just annoying. 3. And this really isn't about the gym per-se but the business connected to the gym--- it always smells like gross cafeteria food in the mens locker room hallway area. Today, which prompted this review, when I changed back into my street clothes that were in a locker, they smelled like food. They (the food business) REALLY needs to do something about their ventilation system. The smells are nauseating.

That was such a frustrating experience, but honestly my gut was right. From the start it was shady. No price over the phone, which screams hidden fees. Then they turned a simple 3-day pass into this whole process of filling out forms and emailing IDs, which makes no sense. The staff just smiled while I walked out upset, showing they care more about their rules than actual people. In the end it’s all for the best. The YMCA is upfront, has a real lap pool that’s deeper than 4ft, and gives me peace of mind. Way better than saving a few steps walking.

Love this location for its atmosphere and staff. Look forward to utilizing the facility regularly during my Fall Semester. Note: they offer swimming lessons for those interested at reasonable fee. And the instructors are very thorough in teaching and reinforcing the fundamentals. Definitely a location plenty of equipment, space, and classes (ie. Cycling, aerobics etc.) You name it, they likely have it. And with your membership, classes are free; members sign up via app or in-person the day of classes.

So to revisit an occurrence that occurred multiple years ago in which management seems to have forgotten about. I was sexually harassed in the mens locker room in the sauna. I reported this to the manager immediately in which they apologize that It occurred but could take no action because the member was on a free trial but assured me that his free trial would be voided. I appreciated the action but still requested to cancel my membership for obvious reasons . I was assured at that time it was canceled and fast forward a couple years. I decided to give them another go because it was one person that ruined the my experience ( I was 18) the staff was always attentive and kind. I sign up and then I'm contacted by hr after paying for the membership and told oh you never canceled and owe us for a month $200.00 , until you pay that even though you paid for the month you can't use our facilities. that's just terrible buisness ethics after I was assured by the manager that my membership was canceled after that terrible event. I would not spend my money here after this recent interaction even if it was the only gym in baltimore. I'm guessing because I'm a man or at that time a very young man I should have just handled it myself of manned up. This is what we call sexism and frankly un acceptable in our modern day.

I will say right away that I went to this gym both with my employer paying for the access and also a reduced rate because of being in town only for a short while:

That said, even still I found it overly expensive. $100/month for something another cheaper gym couldn’t provide?

The facilities were clean but dated and everything felt old and from the 90s.

Staff was a mix. Some very friendly - some couldn’t be bothered with even being asked for kills jump rope.

Men’s locker room always an issue with sauna. People going in endlessly on their phones, fully clothed, street shoes - all pretty disgusting.

Great gym! Massive, tons of free weights, racks, and machines, even has an athletic pool and small track! Gets crowded on summer mornings and evenings after work, but otherwise there’s plenty of open stations. Small track is great for sprinting and walking short distances. Gym has an odd layout, but that’s what you happens when you retrofit a train station. All in all a fantastic gym.

The staff at Merritt Gym in downtown Baltimore are great—friendly, helpful, and always professional. They really make the experience better. That said, the facility itself could use some updates.

This gym is not one of Merritt Gym's priorities regarding cleanliness, updates and overall design. The mens bathroom is disgusting, tiles falling off in the showers (slapped up over other tiles). People shave and leave body hair everywhere, spit on the floors, walk around barefoot. I have seen men shaving in the steam room multiple times. Multiple times urinals have been broken. Men bring their phones into the steam rooms and saunas. When you visit one of the other Merritt gyms you see the vast difference in funding.
** I am currently trying to suspend my membership after over a year as well and this process is difficult to say the least. ( they are requiring a doctors note, At a gym that I am not on a contracted membership for. Is this a HIPPA violation?) Working with a girl named "Sharon" for over two weeks who has left out key information so that I have to pay an extra month. Truly wild, in this economy to treat customers like this.

I have to update the review (from 5* to 2*). There is absolutely nothing wrong with the facility itself but what left a bitter taste in my mouth is their club membership cancellation policy. I have called them and asked to cancel my membership. But i kept getting emails and VM from them (have to say I have missed most of them as it was going to spam and who cares for VM). Finally i spoke with the manager and I was informed it was in contract that membership can only be cancelled “in person or through writing”! So I have to pay back fee for the month that I didn’t use the club at all.

On hindsight it may be in the contract but it if nevertheless EXTREMELY PREDATORY & SKETCHY that you can open the membership from you bed in your boxers but if you have to cancel it you have to go IN PERSON!

Thanks much! Guess another usual corporate behavior.

EDIT: Can’t actually reply so writing here. There’s no way for me to prove my conversation but even if you are correct and I didn’t call it doesn’t matter. The point of criticism is your policy which is STILL THERE. You can’t make it easy to get in the club and make it difficult to get out. THAT’S BAD FAITH behavior and should be changed. Again I have absolutely amazing time in the club and all employees were fantastic. But I can’t stand this kinda opportunistic practices.

UPDATE: In their response below, the gym now claims that the individual involved denies the incident ever occurred. However, I personally spoke with Tammy, the manager, who informed me that the individual had been confronted, interpreted the situation differently, and was given a warning. It is concerning that this account is now being completely contradicted.

This organization appears to prioritize profits and sales above all else, like many corporate businesses. It is deeply disappointing that, after placing my trust in this gym for just one day, this was my experience. The final resolution offered to me was a one-month free membership, which I firmly declined. This offer fails to address the core issue: no amount of free membership can justify or excuse the behavior that—despite their prior acknowledgment—is now being denied.

This contradiction raises serious concerns. If the incident is supposedly being "denied," why was I offered a membership as compensation? I urge others not to make the same mistake I did—avoid this gym, do not come here.

ORIGINAL REVIEW:

I came to the gym interested in the equipment and amenities, I tried out the sauna and I experienced an incident of non-consensual and inappropriate touching from another member on my first day trying this facility.

When I reported this incident, I was initially promised that the offending member’s membership would be immediately terminated and there is a zero tolerance policy for that behavior. Instead, later on after speaking to the manager, I was given a three-day membership extension and even felt I was to blame for the other members actions.

When I escalated the issue to corporate, I was offered only a month-long membership, with no consequences for the other member due to "privacy concerns"—yet there were no concerns of my privacy being clearly violated and no further actions will be taken. While the gym itself has excellent equipment and facilities, the lack of accountability, disregard for member safety, and acceptance for this behavior has completely shattered my trust in this establishment.

After my experience, I will never return to this gym and cannot in good conscience recommend it to others.

I COULD NOT SWIM! Until I recently took swimming lessons at the Merritt with the Best swimming instructor, Hannah. I'm in my mid 50's these days, and I've spent most of my life living with a crippling fear of any large bodies of water; because I could not swim. Fear, shame & embarrassment kept my little secret tucked deep anyway for many years; all the while, I envied those who could swim with ease from the fanciest of pool sides. Finally, I had enough! Once I joined the Merritt I discovered that not only did they have a pool but they offered swimming lessons at a fair price. Today, I proudly report, "I CAN SWIM!" Needless to say I have much room for improvement, and I plan to be assiduous with my practice swimming. In the near future I will be an average swimmer soon. Lastly, next week I'll be on vacation on Martha's Vineyard as I am most summers; however, this summer I will be able to carefully step in to the ocean, and SWIM!!

Highly recommend this gym location. Has everything I need as an athlete. Unfortunately there is only one platform and it is often used during peak hours. Would love if the gym incorporated platform onto their sqaut racks. Otherwise have all the weights and dumbells a gym rat would need. They do have rubber plates, rogue bars, elephant bars, etc. So if you enjoy olympic lifting and lifting a bunch of weights that is borderline bad for your back and decrease in range of motion due to huge muscle mass. Welcome to the club.

Basketball court could use some remodeling for sure.

24hour access Mon-Fri and free parking garage. I pay the extra for the time hours to fit my schedule and for the extra space.

Overall the gym is huge and equipment is new. They recently got new smith machines (2024). During the summer and holidays the club does hold a lot of free or low cost events for members and it has great show outs. Got free drinks one night before a workout 💪

Customer service is good, the workers keep the place clean and are respectful. I'm a low maintenance person in general so I my requirements are a clean workout areas and do not be disturb.

The whitemarsh location is the only one I have been to and the facility is nice and kept clean. They also offer a lot of free classes. The only thing I think could be improved upon is overall management of the pool area. Depending on the staff monitoring the pool, sometimes you can’t swim in the lap lanes because they let kids play and jump in the lap lanes. Some staff do enforce kids out of this area which is nice. But it is only a few lap lanes dedicated to swimming laps and it would be nice if this was used for this purpose. Also I wish they could enforce a policy where parents are required to stay with their kids at the pool. The couple of times I have been there and last evening there were groups of kids and staff was asking where there parents were because they were getting into verbal with other members . Parents were not around and this continued. They also interrupted and swam into the classes repeatedly.

I'm very disappointed with my experience as a member at Merritt over the last 6 months. Most of the staff is incredibly friendly and the facilities are awesome! But I have had enough poor experiences with one staff member in particular named Jodie to be done with this club. After speaking with Eddie Noland from merrit management several times it has become clear that Merritt isn't interested in addressing my issue or providing any additional training for the offending staff member. I'll be looking to exit my contract and join coppemine.

Between this location, the one in Federal Hill, and the one in Canton, I find this one the most practical. It is the biggest gym in town. The women's locker room is not fancy but always clean and well-kept. The studios and other multi-functional rooms are well equipped. The instructors at this location are among the friendliest and less intimidating ones I have worked with. In terms of parking, they are accommodating enough to validate the tickets you get from the Baltimore Sun's garage. The customers are more diverse in age and fitness level than the nearby locations, making the atmosphere more laid-back. All in all, great location with great staff.

REPLY TO RESPONSE: Month to month was never offered to me when I signed up, so I’ll assume that your reps are intentionally not offering it to customers to make more money! The person I signed up for a membership with wasn’t even a “family” member”, so I definitely would’ve elected for that option if it was presented. Sad that your reps missed the mark on that one.

& No need for the confusion, or even a response! I’m providing people with my take on the experience.

Instead of providing a professional response and getting to the bottom of the issue, you guys would rather banter. I see I made the right decision by just finding another gym!

INITAL REVIEW: They have a lot of amenities that you wouldn’t normally see in a gym… restaurant, bar, water slides… etc - which sadly leads people like me right into their predatory trap! There’s a year long contract that you have no choice but to lock into if you want to be a member. Oh, and if the primary person doesn’t continuously pay the fees in full for everyone on the agreement - they’ll pin everything on to that person and send them to collections!

Try out MAC (Maryland Athletic Club) instead! They only require a 3 month commitment, they’re located in the middle of Harbor East, and the rates are MUCH better!

I'm disappointed with my experience at this gym. The steam room has been out of order for nearly two weeks, and it frequently breaks down. It seems like the management opts for quick fixes instead of addressing the root issues, which would benefit customers in the long run. The morning showers constantly fluctuate between hot and cold, and the early morning cleanliness of the toilets leaves much to be desired. While most of the staff is friendly, there are some with attitude problems. Given the high membership cost, these issues are unacceptable. I'm actively seeking an alternative gym with a working steam room and plan to cancel my membership when the contract ends. On a positive note, my daughter enjoys swim lessons with Ms. Rion in Canton. However, the ongoing problems at the downtown gym are a significant drawback.

This is an amazing gym that is arranged very well and I've been using it consistently since March of this year. I want to say a few things that would make the gym even better.

This gym could benefit greatly from having TURF. Can it be installed in the TRX room, the room with two deadlift platforms, or another room in the downstairs area? If so, that would be wonderful for cross-training.

I would segregate plates in the two downstairs rooms. The "powerlifting room" (the room with six squat racks, dumbbells, and one deadlift platform) should, in my view, have all metal plates and no rubber bumper plates. In my opinion, all the bumper plates should be in the multifunctional room next to it (the one with pullup bars and two deadlift platforms).

Third, I think some rooms downstairs could benefit from having fans installed - whether they be mounted to the wall or just on the floor, unmounted. I think people train really hard and it can get hot in those downstairs areas.

Thank you for an amazing gym experience.

I had a great experience with Jodi Young. I called in to possibly cancel/freeze my membership due to a high risk pregnancy. Jodi took the time to make recommendations for classes that my doctor may approve and even sent me the schedule as to when they occurred. I was approved to attend those classes and didn’t have to freeze/cancel my membership. Upon meeting her in person, she even did a breathe work session with me 1 on 1. Jodi made me feel comfortable. She was kind and interested in what I had to say. I was taken back by her attentiveness and welcoming spirit upon our very first introduction. The session was amazing! It really encouraged me to have mindful moments & to take time for self-care again.

Thank you for being so kind and knowledgeable Jodi!

It's clean, and the machine are laid out spaciously. Employees are friendly. There is parking next to the building, and if parking is full, the gym will validate parking for the neighboring parking garage.

My favorite workout location. It has everything you need to get your body fit. All except no teens are allowed but they have a basketball court available.

This is actually a great place to work out even to get a piece of mind. There's a lot of space , also a basketball court with multiple different training areas with tons of equipment literally !

NO Drive Thru at this location. Wait time was lengthy. More people needed behind the counter.

Ok gym but not worth the $99 per month I pay. (Apparently that was a special deal) For the 3rd week or more so far one of the stair masters is still broken. The staff isn’t especially friendly or inviting at least not for the amount we pay. If I wanted a McDonalds energy when I walked into the gym I could have stayed at LA fitness. I left LA fitness for this exact reason. No perks available even though I recommended free masks for people who forgot them so they wouldn’t have to turn around and go get one and that wasn’t satisfied because of the cost year here we are paying at least $99 a month. This gym could afford to improve. No one is helpful or polite and it’s not running well enough to pay what I pay. I’m considering just going back to LA fitness. At least I would only pay around $35 a month.

This is a good gym. I like the Fort Ave location as well. I haven’t visited the others yet because I’m new to the area and new to this gym. The staff at Fort Ave is a little more friendly and helpful. Downtown didn’t give me a tour or show me anything when I first signed up and they aren’t as friendly and welcoming but still very good customer service in that they keep things clean and organized and still cordial. My only gripe is that they don’t provide masks at Merritt Club. I’m vaccinated and they require masks which is fine because everyone still isn’t vaccinated (idk why) but I forget to bring a mask sometimes and I have to leave and go to a convenience store and spend money to also buy a mask that I won’t even be able to use after my workout. I emailed about it and they said it was cost related but I look at the number of people who go to the gym and I know my rate isn’t even the highest and I pay $99 a month so it seems kind of ridiculous not to have a bulk order of masks for people who forget them (most people don’t. I haven’t forgotten mine the last 3 times I went) but it would be nice to have them there if you do. I know other gyms don’t charge as much and they provide masks. As great as this gym is it felt insulting to hear they can’t provide masks (if needed) because of cost. Hopefully this gets to someone higher up and this is reconsidered. It would make this gym even more quality. This isn’t just the downtown location that does this to my knowledge but this is the one I use the most. When they provide masks if needed, I’ll make this 5 stars. I really resent having to walk up 2 blocks to go buy a mask on those busy days when I’m forgetful before my workout it kind of messes up the vibes and good energy of my workout too.

It's a really gym with great staff. However, tge "premium gym" features that were suspended during the pandemic never got reinstated. So Merritt is essentially operating as a high quality standard gym while charging premium gym prices.

Merritt DAC is a professionally run gym with great instructors for their classes, up to date, modern well maintained exercise equipment and a very spacious uncrowded facility. The membership is extremely diverse-young, old, brown, white, black, Asian-a truly integrated, friendly and congenial atmosphere.
