Anytime Fitness

I chose Anytime Fitness because I travel a lot between Austin, Dripping Springs, Houston, and Arlington. I consider this location my «home gym» and am always happy to come back to it!
Pretty much all the other locations I’ve visited don’t nearly stack up in comparison to this location. In other Anytime Fitness gyms, there is rarely staff on sight. When there is, they don’t greet me, talk to me, and sometimes even sound annoyed when I ask about specific equipment.
At this location, there are at least 2 trainers/​staff present and they consistently greet me by name as early as my second visit. The owner, Aaron, runs a great facility. Trainers are friendly, the gym has everything I need and more, bathrooms are always spotless, they run a lot of community based competitions to motivate you, and recognize achievements to inspire you. Good stuff.

I was a member for over 2 years and had to switch gyms because I needed a gym with a pool. The new ownership is great and help me through the cancelation process and have been extremely friendly and courteous. I enjoyed my experience working out at Anytime Fitness and my wife is still an active member.

Love this gym! It’s small and quiet yet still has everything you need to get in a great workout. The gym is always outstandingly clean and Megan and the rest of the staff are pure gems! The prices are reasonable and the best part is you can go whenever you want.

First — this gym is under new management, so take that into consideration with any old bad reviews.
Second — yes, it is small but is has all the basic equipment one could ask for, and the ratio of people to equipment is never off.
Third — the staff are actually FRIENDLY. What a concept.
Fourth — It’s CLEAN!
I’ve been to Gold’s, LA, 24 hour and Anytime and the people here actually care more than all other gym staff combined. While not a mega gym — it will def get the job done.

Staff is knowledgeable and always there. The gym has enough space and equipment for all exercises. Overall, it blows most anytime gyms out of the water.

I am only giving one star because I cannot give 0! The fitness center itself is not bad, the people that run it are. Roger states he is the manager, but does not know what he is talking about. When pressed for help, he stated that he did not work for Anytime Fitness and was not a representative of Anytime Fitness, as he was a contract worker. My account has been messed up for months and I cannot get any help! Roger keeps on referring me to a company called ABC (because he is a contract worker and cannot help) and ABC keeps referring me to Roger. STAY AWAY!!!

My husband and I visited this club in January 2014 and met Roger, the owner. We wanted to try out the club for a week or so to see if it would be a good fit. Roger said we would get two weeks free, then we would be charged $ 68.94 a month for three months.
My husband visited twice during the first ten days. I visited seven times. The music was always too loud and was on a death metal station. Even with my headphones maxed out, I couldn’t drown out that awful music. The treadmills face the parking lot which also faces east, which means the morning sun comes in and is blinding. The shades they have up do not block the sun. I had to wear a ball cap to keep the sun out of my eyes. After a week or so, I started looking for other options. At 3-​points in Pflugerville, Planet Fitness had just opened. $ 10 down/​$ 10 month. I signed up and love it there. It’s about 5 times bigger than Anytime and is also open (and staffed) 24 hours a day.
Roger said to cancel, we had to do it in writing and our account would be prorated. Before our two weeks free trial was up, I wrote a letter canceling our membership and left it in his office. The manager called and said we had to come in and sign their form, my letter wasn’t good enough. My husband then talked with the manager (not Roger) who said he wasn’t letting us out of the contract. After reasonably negotiating, the manager agreed to let us buy out the contract for half of its value (total value for 3 months = $ 206.82) so half would be $ 103.41 (almost a full year’s value at Planet Fitness!!!). NINE VISITS WAS GOING TO COST US $ 103.41, ugh!!! Well, they have charged our bank account $ 68.94 two months in a row. We did sign a contract. We were not happy and tried to reasonably negotiate a settlement, but they did not keep their word. Lesson learned.
Duly warned people! Save your money and go to Planet Fitness.

I have no issues with this club what so ever… I was originally at another smaller gym where every machine I wanted to use was always taken, nobody would ever re-​rack their weights when finished, and there were a ton of kids everywhere playing around.
I workout at about 7−8pm oclock 4 nights a week and the majority of the time there are only about 5 – 10 people there which is great.

It’s a great place for people who aren’t too serious about working out, and like to do so in private :)
Hardcore body fitness fans should go to a bigger place that is more staffed. If you’re higher maintenance, go to a higher maintenance place :)
This is just great for me though — in the evenings it isn’t busy in the building, so to run, go on the bikes, or the elliptical, do some light weights, etc., isn’t bad or embarrassing.

FRAUD ALERT AT THE PFLUGERVILLE ANYTIME FITNESS (GRAND AVE PKWY LOCATION):
Someone at the Pflugerville Anytime Fitness facility has signed me up for a membership I did not agree to and they are fraudulently charging my credit card. I had a two month membership with them frm 5÷1÷11 to 7÷1÷11 and did not sign up for auto-​renewal. After calling the finance company (ABC Financial) after seeing a wrong charge on my credit card statement they informed me that according to their records I signed up for a new membership on 7÷15÷11. I actually moved to another state and no longer even lived in TX at that time. I did not sign up for this membership and did not have auto-​renewal on my original membership.
I have left messages and emailed the club, called the corporate Anytime Fitness office to report the fraud (they will not tell me who the owner is but contacted the owner to report my compaint) and have been trying to work with ABC Financial to resolve this situation with absolutely no response from the Pflugerville facility. They will not contact me to resolve this situation.
Be very careful about providing any credit card information to this facility.

The gym itself isn’t bad, but not great either.
They only have one or two of each machine, so there is typically some waiting involved if you show up with a specific workout in mind.
They make it really difficult to cancel your membership once your contract is up and force you to jump through some hoops in order to get them to stop billing you.
The staff that works it is nice and friendly, but only available limited hours.
With a one year contract I was paying $ 30/​month which isn’t bad, but I would recommend going to a larger gym that has more space and more equipment.
