the best? No! Really Good? yes!

by StephanM at Citysearch

I think this is a great gym for the money. It offers all the amenities of high end expensive gyms at a much better price.

There are things that might seem annoying but for the price you put up with it.

Cons: naked old people running around the bathroom. WTF?

Bring water; there are only two fountains and neither work great.

Small free weight room.

The cardio machines are spotty on operation

Pros: really clean

Lots of cardio equipment.

Pool is great

Plenty of validated parking

for the most part a great crowd

All in all it’s a great gym with some quirks.

• Pros: affordable
• Cons: small weight room

great all around gym

by Big Deal at Citysearch

i like this gym. the place is always pretty clean and it has a really cool down to earth crowd. none of the douchy Golds Gym almost defecate yourself lifting crowd.

i wish the free weight room was a bit bigger. free weight fanatics need not apply. but i guess that has to do with space more than anything.

the cardio room rocks and there seems to be plenty of classes although i have not indulged.

• Pros: not to crowded
• Cons: not enough free weights

Being a part of FC Staff is great experience

by FCstaff at Citysearch

Currently I'm an employee of Club One, and let me tell you everybody it's by far the best place to work in and especially work out. The environment is amazing, all the staff people working there are very educated, polite and respectful. I enoy my everyday job and love it, and the main reason for it is that both of us the Staff and the Members want to be there. People come to the Club to enjoy themselves and what the Club has to offer, and we, employees, are there to make that experience unforgetful and filled with smiles and joy. The Members of One are all nice people and polite, sure some things might go wrong and the Membersmight get a little upset/disappointed but it's the job for the Staff and we can handle it with a smile on our faces. I respect everyone's needs/concerns judt like any crew member of One. May your experience be fulfilled with smiles and excitement of the Club itself and of course the Staff will make that experience unforgettable. FC Staff employee

• Pros: clean environment, polite people, lots of space+++
• Cons: ???

Watch out!!!! Beware of continuing contracts!!!!

by jen8675309smith at Citysearch

After canceling our membership, we received a notice from Club One informing us that we had overdue membership dues. We called Club One who informed us that they had not canceled our contract but in-fact extended our contract for another year. When we asked them for proof of this, they told us they didn't have any but were going to submit our past due balance for collections if we didn't pay up and continue our membership. All I can say is "watch out!!!!" As for the club, the fillmore club is horrible. It has no real natural light and all the equipment is packed into a pretty small space. They do have people cleaning but the place still seems to be dirty. The pool is always packed and good luck trying to get to share a lane with some of the locals. They are quite fiesty.

• Pros: Better than 24 hour
• Cons: Expensive plus they won't let you cancel your contract!!!!!

Chronic Plumbing Problems

by stmsfo at Citysearch

I've been a member of Club One Fillmore Center for over 5 years. Dues keep increasing a bit (usually a couple of small increases a year), while service has tended to decline in the last couple years. In particular, this facility has chronic plumbing problems. There are regularly problems with the pool, jacuzzi, or (men's) steam, sauna or showers (don't know about women's area). For example, the pool and jacuzzi had a malfunctioning heat exchanger and valve problem (according to staff) last week that made them COLD for about 5 days. Rather annoying to pay top dollar and get sub-standard "wet" facilities. On the plus side: Plentiful towels and fairly clean locker rooms.
