Anytime Fitness Chicago Broadway

Thanks for the positive rating, KK!

I was near this location, visiting for the week and looked forward checking out this gym to get my workouts in. There is a good variety of equipment and while the space is quiet small, the layout is fairy intuitive with enough space to do what you need to do. The facility is spotlessly clean and well-kept up.I was initially disappointed to not be able to get into the gym with my fob right away, as you need to email your COVID vaccine card ahead of time but they responded promptly and activated my card to get my workouts started. Kudos for the responsive staff!

I’ve been a member for 6 months now and I love it. There is free parking for members. The gym has never been dirty — even the bathrooms are pretty spotless! I visited a couple different gyms before deciding to stick with Anytime. I find that at other gyms, there is a bit of a competitive vibe. As a younger woman, I don’t like feeling “on display” at a gym, and I have never felt that here. I think it has to do with the way the space is designed. I can’t quite put my finger on it, but it’s there! The atmosphere is welcoming and friendly. Even the decals on the wall at this location are more realistic and encouraging, whereas other gyms can have more toxically positive phrases. While the equipment is somewhat limited (compared to other chain gyms), I have never had an issue where I couldn’t use the equipment I wanted.

I've recently rejoined the gym after the pandemic so this will be my second year with AF. I've attended both AF on Devon & Broadway, both owned by Rick. This review focuses on the Broadway location but also extends to the Devon location as well by nature of having the same staff.Both gyms have ample equipment, are clean, have cleaning supplies stocked, and are diligent with masking & proof of vaccine. They maintain the upkeep of new equipment purchases annually to ensure everything is in good condition.The Broadway location is more recently opened, & therefore newer than the Devon location, but both are equally nice. Parking is free (with sticker) & easily accessible.I've recently started training with Cortney who is great. Overall, I've always found Rick hires highly competent staff who are friendly & willing to help. They don't have much staff turnover. Therefore you really get to know them better & feel more like being part of a community than at big box gyms. Rick & Dan (manager) are both highly attentive to the gym in general which is why I think it is always so clean & in good condition. They really value the quality of the gym & experience of its members.The area where you leave your belongings (coats, outside shoes, etc) is in clear view & theft has never been an issue.I've never used the showers, but bathroom facilities are clean.Would recommend this gym & the Devon gym to anyone & everyone looking for an alternative to big box gyms.

I moved to the area and transferred to this location. It’s a really well kept facility, and it has a very chill environment. Club members and management are really respectful. It’s very spacious with a functional training area that has all types of equipment and a wide variety of cardio machines. It’s nice to know that management takes pride in their gym because it certainly shows.

This is honestly one of the cleanest and most ego-free gyms I've ever been to. The staff is very responsive both in person as well as via email and the machines are in great shape. Lucky to have this gym available 24/7 around the corner from me.

I don’t go as often as I should, but when I do, the gym is always super clean. Seems like the guests generally do their part in keeping the place tidy too (testament to management). Love the assortment of equipment in a small place - they feel new and sturdy.

Highly recommend both the Broadway and the Devon Ave. locations – which I’ve found packed with a full range of equipment, clean and accessible, along with friendly, responsive staff that’s committed to making sure their facilities are safe and welcoming places where you can work on your fitness goals, whatever your level.I joined the Devon location last fall, and when I decided to add personal training to the mix (a first for me) Anytime did not disappoint. I met with Adrian, who listened well to what I had to say about what I was looking for in working with a trainer and he made a great match. I’ve been working with Cortney at the Broadway spot, and she is awesome -- knowledgeable, attentive, fun and positive every session. Through the variety of circuits she’s developed and the equipment she incorporates into each workout with me in mind, I’m stronger and feeling healthier. And the energy I get from our workouts stays with me even on the days I'm not training.It’s been a great experience – thank you Anytime, Adrian and Cortney!
