I used Fitness @ Five when visiting Athens for a few weeks. The gym had all the weightlifting equipment I needed and was very clean. The owner, Gisela, was also kind and helpful to me. This is a fantastic gym.

I am kind of surprised to see such high ratings for this place. It is way way too small and under-equipped to demand the premium that it does. You will probably enjoy this place if you're not a student, as this gym is catered to a slightly older crowd (think suburban housewives and retirees). I didn't hate my experience there, but certainly didn't love it. Staff members would regularly hog machines/benches for literally over an hour (seriously, come on) which seemed a little unprofessional. Gisela (owner) is regularly short with me and not super polite. I got the vibe that college students aren't necessarily welcome there but YMMV.Overall 2/5. I had to take off one star due to the unprofessional staff behavior, one star for poor value, and another star because their contract forces you to pay for an additional month after you quit. F@5 gets some credit for having a good location, clean showers, and not having an overabundance of gym bros who blast music.

Beyond fantastic gym. The owner and trainers care more about your fitness development than making money. The environment is positive- great for female lifters! The gym is professionally cleaned constantly. The members are awesome too- always share and encourage. The membership rate is inexpensive, and they do not rope you into secret fees or make it impossible to cancel when you move. This gym is incredible, and I mourn leaving!!
