Comes complete with sauna and recovery options. The shake bar is awesome as well, decent reward system through their app as well.

Firstly, I want to mention I travel a lot for work and have seen a variety of gyms across the country.This gym is super clean and organized that even with it being a gym in the city, you don't feel cluttered.When you walk in, you are greeted by a friendly staff who makes you feel right at home and greet you by name. They offer a "day" pass and it is $20. I say "day" because once you leave the gym you cannot use it again. There is a variety of classes to attend to, machines, weights, cardio equipment, turf/training areas, and massage beds.Bathrooms- The bathrooms are very well kept. Combination lockers that are easy to use and free. They have toiletries like toothbrushes, combs, Q-tips and deodorant in case you may have forgotten anything. As well as a blow dryer with various attachments(not to mention this is the men's and could vary for the gender neutral bathroom or female's bathroom). The mirrors have lights that you can adjust to various settings. Lastly the bathroom has a sauna that is kept a perfect temperature.I was greeted by Carson Shelton. He gave me a tour of the gym and helped me get the day pass set up the various times I came to the gym. He treated me as if I was a member-even though I was only visiting. His desk is the first one as you walk in and creates a friendly atmosphere as soon as you walk in. Definitely give him a shout if you step foot in this gym.

I love City Fitness. The classes are great, facilities are nice, sauna (and at some locations) a steam room, staff is friendly. I don’t often go at peak hours so I don’t experience overcrowding but any city gym is going to be crowded right before or right after the standard workday. But you know what the absolute best thing about City Fitness is?? More than all the great stuff I mentioned?? There are NO TVs PLAYING THE NEWS. No other gym I’ve been to has had this feature. I can work out without feeling like the world is about to end. YAY!!!

Solid addition to the City Fitness local franchise. Everything we've come to expect from a CF gym, from friendly instructors to quality equipment and fantastic classes. Glad there's a smoothie bar here, as well. I still utilize a different CF location as my home gym, but enjoy coming here when I'm in the neighborhood.

As someone who often visits gyms, not a terrible gym, but definitely among the worst in Philadelphia. Front desk staff were EXTREMELY rude, gym was over capacity, limited equipment, unfair pricing and weights all over the floor. For $25 for a day pass and 42.50 biweekly, 59 annual fee, I’m going to have to give this gym a 1/10. Save your money and go to planet fitness or crouch

Huge upgrade over the former gym in this location. City fitness did a great job fitting out this space and making use of the long narrow floor plans. This slice of the city was in desperate need of a gym like this, so don’t be surprised of the crowds during the typical busy hours after work during the week.

City Fitness continues to roll out beautiful gyms that are wonderful places to work out! Spacious, great machines, large area for stretching and exercising. With this now open, moves into one of then top CF locations.
