I play basketball there three times per week. Good games MWF at Noon, usually full court, sometimes 3 x 3 half court. Capable players of a considerable age range, and no arguing. Very nice facility. Staff are friendly and accommodating.

One of the best gyms in Oakland, tiny bit over priced but worth it

0 STARS. Due to the lack of customer service I continue to be charged for a membership I cancelled. I had been a member for over 20 years. So disappointing.

No one picks up the phone, it goes to voicemail each and every time. Please pick up the phone! How are we to sign up if we can't get our questions answered. Thx!!Update: someone is now picking up the phone. Although, they can’t answer questions, lol. Good luck.

I got a sneak peek today. The remodel is beautiful! They're making some great changes and have good COVID protocols in place. I can't wait until they open!

The Club is a great fitness center with tons of room and all of the amenities you could hope for. Free weights, machines, basketball courts, swimming pool, spin classes, sauna, plenty of lockers, etc.. The staff is always friendly, the facilities are clean, and the price is reasonable. I would highly recommend this gym to anyone in the area.

I give it a 3 because of huge safety issues they have.It's a great club with great staff and trainers. I go to the Zone classes which is a great place to burn a lot of calories. I LOVE it. but I got robbed at the locker room. My wallet got stolen with my engagement ring, gold bracelet and $100 cash in it. The gym managers basically did NOTHING for that. They have huge safety issues. I work across the street so most of my colleagues are members there. I heard from MANY people that their wallets got stolen there. That's so weird they can't do anything for the safety of our stuff! If you wanna go to this club, just leave your valuable stuff at home. It's a great club though :)UPDATE: I have to update my review here. I changed my previously 3 stars to 1 star!! I had thought that this club was only suffering from security issues, but today I learnt their customer service is the worst!!! And by customer service I mean people with "customer service manager" title. They don't even deserve 1 star!
