Onelife Fitness - Fort Totten

I’ve had a great experience at this gym so far. I was initially hesitant to join, given the reviews I saw on Google, but I decided to try it out and become a member after being invited by a friend. Most of the front desk personnel and staff are friendly, positive, and encouraging, which makes you want to come back to the gym. I have an excellent personal trainer that has helped me to get healthier and stronger and enjoy the evening group classes that I regularly attend.The suggestions I have is to diversify the music and even add Afrobeats to the mix. It would also be great if the group classrooms could have better air cooling and the floor could be cleaned more regularly; I nearly slipped in one of my group classes recently and have heard other members share similar complaints.

Immaculately clean, courteous staff, and great space. I am disappointed in their family member pricing though. It's not very encouraging to get kids more active and promote family health. Given that the kids can't come on their own- nor should they at the 10-16 age,the price is almost that of second adult so it's cost prohibitive to a family which is unfortunate.

Spoke with Adam and he was an absolute pleasure to work with! I'm in the process of moving and he was perfectly accommodating to that fact and let me get a 2-week trial to the place for only $6, which is an absolute steal for a facility like this!This place is all the equipment you can ask for, and the locker rooms are squeaky clean. Oh, and did I mention, there's a CO-ED SAUNA?! 😉

Have been super happy at the Onelife Fort Totten location. I joined a year ago since I moved to the area and it has been the best decision I made, especially with all the other gyms around. The staff has been super friendly and the gym is pretty well maintained.Had a bit of billing issue when I started with my membership code being tied with someone else’s account but it was rectified in a timely matter.Only suggestion would be to add some non-energy drink choices at the coolers like some sport drinks.Other than that I am super happy with this gym and will be a member for a long time!

The machines that have multiple positions/purposes are bit complicated to figure out but other than that loved it. I was visiting DC and got a guest pass for my stay..I practically was there everyday. Lol

My experience has been wonderful at this location. The place is very well managed with the cleanliness outside with the equipment. I have not used all the amenities yet but plan to work my way up to using it. The only thing I can personally say is how the bathroom is managed and this is not due to the cleaning staff but due to us individuals. We ladies need to do better when it comes to how we leave the bathroom. Occasions I have come across with stepping on wet toilet paper on the floor. We need to do better on our part because as a community of ladies we all use the bathroom. Other than everything else the staff is super friendly. There is one elder gentleman with glasses he always has a smile on his face and it makes me feel welcomed.

Great gym! I love the frequency of cleaning staff present at all times of the day. Always very thoroughly cleaning and refilling the disinfectant bottles. Very spacious and plenty of equipment. The staff is always happy and friendly. Love the free and easy parking. It seems like there is always new equipment coming which is nice. Hopefully more cable machine attachments are coming too. Highly recommend this gym.

Great facility and great community of gym goers as well. Weights get re-racked and people don’t hog equipment with circuit routines. Free garage parking is a great benefit. My only complaints would be that I wish the locker room/shower areas would get cleaned more frequently since they are a vital part of my pre-commute routine and I wish there were more extended hours especially on weekends. 7am-7pm times are pretty hard to make when you’re super busy during the day.

I have been a member for a year. Here is what you need to know if considering this gym (or if you are in management):Good- Rather clean overall- Machines are almost always working properly and in good condition- Not overly crowded- Professional staff (could do better at greeting upon entry and especially exit)- Generally respectful members that are there to workout- Great variety of equipment. Pretty much everything you could need or want.- Nice amenities like the pool- Really good rates- Overall great value- Good upper level management. I had a situation where I needed to cancel for relocation and I was last minute with putting in the request and he shot of an email to corporate admin and they allowed me to cancel early. Then my plans changed they reinstated me with no sign up fees. That type of flexibility and service goes a long way with me!!Areas for Improvement:- Cleanliness: I know this is somewhat contradictory but the cleaning company doesn’t use the best cleaning tools and methods and therefore just move dirt around on the floor and does not properly remove it. I see them lightly graze those old fashioned rag mops (microbial magnets and least effective instrument to clean a floor) over the floor and over dirt and hair. The hair is of course still there when they are done just wet and stuck to the floor. They don’t get the dust bunnies and grime that accumulates at the base of the equipment. Also, as others pointed out, members rarely wipe down equipment and staff does not communicate that members should be doing so (no signs, no verbal reminders).- Upkeep: Bathroom stalls are always out of toilet paper even first thing in the morning.- Knowledge/Effectiveness of Group Class trainers: I only took 1 class because it was such a waste of time. He was more interested in socializing and being funny than giving a quality workout. Maybe he thought he was catering to his older/less fit students but it was not at all a worth while class. He also was having us do weird moves that are not standard exercises. Maybe the other trainers are better.- Class offerings are limited.Sorry I only have photos of the issues I have observed! It is overall a good gym and I do recommend it over a bunch of others!

I just started going this week and it’s been pretty good. Great location to have this gym. The equipment is well maintained and cleaned, the front desk people are friendly, and the other gym goers are nice also. I wish the men bathroom area was a little more cleaner. Some of the hand soap bottles have been empty for more than two days; one of the stalls didn’t have any toilet paper and the mirrors look nasty. The pool/sauna area looks like it’s still being worked on. Can’t wait for it to open so I can relax after a hard workout.
