Great gym! The childcare is my favorite part. With the camera feeds on the tv's so I can watch my son while I work out. Better culture than other big gyms, and I've been to them ALL...

This place was really nice when it first opened. It was clean all the time and the staff were all very friendly. The only downside was how packed it was. Fast forward to now, the bathrooms are always dirty, the machines are all covered in sweat and alcohol wipe residue, the sauna has been out of order for over a month, and it’s still just as packed (actually it’s even MORE packed regardless of the time of day.) While I understand a huge appeal of this location for some folks is the daycare, it is an annoyance to hear children screaming and running around when trying to check in at the front desk. I don’t get why sometimes they even allow kids to be in the workout areas with heavy machinery around. Management needs to put in as much effort as they were in the beginning (if not more,) or stop selling so many memberships if they don’t plan on keeping up with the maintenance. Don’t recommend this location to anyone who actually wants to try different equipment, everything is usually already being used by someone. They’re a bigger and newer gym than EOS yet they’re facing the same issues already. Such a same.

Area has been mishandled shortly after opening, fountains breaking.
No towels, hand wipes, and overfilled trash bins. Not to mention overly crowded.

I like Mountainside but this location is hands down my least favorite.

This location is clean, staff is friendly enough and the amenities are up to par for the price point. I'm updating my review but it's more of an issue of etiquette that needs to be addressed at this location in particular . The sauna is an awesome ammentity, but too many dudes go in with sweaty/ smelly workout gear, shoes socks and all, even in the steam room. I can't relax when it stinks. Other than that, busy when I go but doesn't feel crowded to me. Amenities that are up to par at this location in particular:
✨️ locker rooms with towel service, each equipped with a sauna & steam room.
✨️ modern workout equipment & sanitation wipes around.
✨️ rules clearly posted and visible
✨️Plenty of parking

Grew up in the valley so glad there is a nice gym here at a fair price. I feel like I go to a luxury gym almost, please keep it that way

The first three months were perfectly fine. I even purchased for a personal trainer and I wanted it for the first three months, When it came time to cancel, they just froze the account and I was never told that I had to sign to cancel the subscription. Now I’m fighting for two months of personal training which I don’t want. It’s a shame because of this is that Gym’s have a bad reputation.

I recently visited Mountainside, and while there are several positive aspects, my overall experience was hampered by the music volume being too soft.The gym itself is well-maintained, with a diverse range of equipment and clean locker rooms. The staff were friendly and helpful, and the general atmosphere was welcoming. However, the background music was so quiet that it barely registered, making it difficult to stay motivated and energized during my workouts.Music plays a crucial role in setting the tone and boosting motivation, especially during intense exercises. Unfortunately, the nearly inaudible music left the gym feeling lackluster and didn’t provide the energy boost I needed. I found myself struggling to get into the right mindset, and the overall ambiance was noticeably flat without a proper soundtrack.While Mountainside excels in many areas, the music volume is a significant aspect that needs addressing. Louder and more dynamic music could greatly enhance the workout environment and help members stay motivated.In conclusion, despite the excellent facilities and friendly staff, the overly soft music volume made my visit less enjoyable than it could have been. I hope Mountainside considers turning up the volume to create a more energetic and motivating atmosphere for its members.

Best gym Mountainside has opened so far love the cold plunge and infrared sauna!!! Super convenient location off the freeway, staff are incredibly knowledgeable and inviting!

I was raving about this gym for a couple of months—-

I no longer agree with my previous statements.

1.) it’s filthy, everything is covered in a sweat-alcohol-wipe film…(and I mean everything)

2.) they changed their membership agreement. I signed up for the cold plunge (it was the selling point) and they promised I could use it with the “couples package”… few months later, after I NEVER ONCE USED IT, they made it a premium add-on. May I add- I never got to use it because every time I was there, it was out of order….The one day I was ready to use it and it wasn’t broken…they no longer offered it at my subscription level.

No one even said sorry or let’s see what we can do for you- rather, I got a “membership changed with the higher ups”

So here’s a message to the “higher-ups:” if I wasn’t stuck in a 12-month plan, I’d cut this relationship today.

The level of disappointment is unreal and the allure of a “local” gym has become the reality of which it is- Mountainside Fitness is now another GloboGym.
