Best Gyms with 24 Hour Access near Chicago, Illinois

I have been a member here for over ten years and I have slowly seen this place go from good to awful. First it was the demise of kids club, now it’s the limited hours and overcrowding. If you are going at peak times it’s near impossible to navigate. Since the pandemic the hours never returned to normal and the classes didn’t either. If anyone is reading this it needs to be turned back to 5am opening and stay open a couple hours later, especially on the weekends. I sent a message to someone in aquatics about an issue I was having and never even received a response which lets me know how valuable I am as a member. The only reason I am giving this an extra star instead of the one it takes to write this is for the front desk staff who are just lovely people. Jen, Jojo, Jackson, Canon and anyone else who mans the front desk is in desperate need of a well deserved raise as are the cleaning staff. Everything else about this gym makes me wish harder that the equinox hotel that was supposed be built actually came to fruition and that there were better options that were walkable. Overall: seek an alternative if possible and if this is your best option try to come at off peak times. *Cutting this down to one star that I have to give to write this review because all the above mentioned people are no longer there and the HVAC isn’t working properly.

Best thing in my day! Staff is incredible, music is always on point, the cleaning staff keep the facility pristine. Ive lived in the city my whole life. Ive been to all the gyms including lifetime 1. West loop athletic wins Gold in all category's. If you're looking for a good gym community it's the place to be. Ive been a member for several years ,so my review is a solid one.

WLAC has been an important addition to my routine. My personal trainer Zac Bernat has made all the difference with my relationship with the gym, fitness and working out making it not just positive and fun but educational and informative. I've seen huge results in my body and physical skills since working with Zac. The facility itself is always clean although I do wish there was more parking as it can be tricky at times.

Wouldn’t recommend signing a membership here. The gym itself is kind of a dump, but more importantly, the 3rd party the gym uses for payment processing is extremely shady. They’ve charged me a “decline” fee on my account twice in the past 6 months for literally no reason. To be clear, the card is not declining. In fact, the bill is still processing on the first day of the month. WAC refunded this fee the first time, and stated that if it happened again, they would refund me again and resolve the issue. Welp, turns out that was a lie. The in-house billing staff is incredibly kind, and even stated that this isn’t the first time members of this gym have had issues with bills processing accurately. If that’s the case, why are you still working with them? Your 3rd party vendor messed up, and now I am responsible? LOOOOOOOOL. Whoever is the decision-maker to keep that partnership alive is MINDLESS. Get a new job buddayyyyyy. Quick math: I would have gladly stayed a member of WAC for the next 3 years minimum. That is $3100 in revenue. Instead, now that they won’t cover a $25 fee from their sack of shit payment processing vendor, I am cancelling to go elsewhere. FFC is more expensive, but hey, at least I feel like I won’t get a fungal infection walking around their locker room. Lmao! Piss off WAC.

This place has gone downhill. The hours are weird, staff unprofessional. Management needs to retrain their staff on basic customer service skills. There’s plenty of gym options in the area, do yourself a favor skip out on this place.

Best gym in Chicago by far! Between the vast variety of machines, equipment, trainers, nutritionists, masseuses, massage chairs, dry sauna, steam room and the very friendly staff and management, the Premier Package is worth every dollar! If your looking for a gym where people go to actually work out and not take TikToks, this is the gym for you! Also ask for Leo, one of the personal Trainers, he's helped me not only lose weight but also fixed my stretching techniques

⭐ (1 out of 5 stars) While the gym facilities themselves are decent, I've had a deeply frustrating experience with their membership management and billing practices. I've been a member for a long time and travel frequently for work. When I discussed this with their staff, I was verbally assured that I could freeze my membership without any concerns due to my travel schedule. Unfortunately, this turned into a significant problem. Despite the verbal agreement with their staff member, they sent my account to a debt collector. When I tried to resolve this, I was told I should have followed up on an email that contradicted what I was told in person. The staff member who made these assurances is no longer with the company, and management seems unwilling to acknowledge or honor the verbal agreement made by their former employee. What's particularly disappointing is that I expressed interest in continuing my membership and working things out, but was met with inflexibility. While they did offer to waive some fees, being sent to collections without warning, especially after receiving assurances from their staff, is not how you treat loyal members. Pros: - Good facility and equipment - Convenient location Cons: - Poor communication between staff and management - Inconsistent information given to members - Aggressive billing practices - Unwillingness to honor verbal agreements made by staff If you decide to join, I strongly recommend getting EVERYTHING in writing and recording all conversations about billing or membership changes. While the gym itself is fine, the management practices have made me question my choice to be a member here.

FFC Gold Coast is looking like its going to be my 2nd home. Its a large gym with huge selection of weights, equipment and variety classes. There is also an indoor lap pool, 3 indoor basketball courts that quickly convert to indoor Pickleball courts. There is also a rooftop for warm weather classes and member events. I regularly work with Personal Trainer Leo and he is awesome. The gym is constantly being cleaned and equipment is maintained daily. I've never seen an "out of order" sign. The demographic is a diverse mix of ages 20-80, and all of the employees are friendly and helpful.

Michelle has been rude every instance I have interacted with her, I would highly recommend they choose another representative to answer the main phone. The gym and the majority of the staff is great.

The astroturf field in the image is the roof of the gym! What a great view and overall amazing property. Special shout-out to Carlos who has saved me many times from a lockout without judging

I just finished my two week trial membership and here's what I like about my individual plus kids membership: *FREE 2 hour childcare *Variety of classes - Pilates Mat with Zineb and Fuerzo Kickboxing with Marcelo have been my favorites! *Special programming! Kids are in a free weekly dance class and they had a reptile show where we could touch the animals. Negatives: *Parking is a challenge despite them having two parking lots. I had to park on Fullerton this morning around 9AM. *Family pool access is limited on weekends as 3/4 of pool is used for lessons in the morning. Definitely worth the investment for the childcare alone!

I booked a birthday party for my daughter because it was hard to find someone who would respond ahead of time. I chose this place out of a few last minute options. The upside: The party was very nice. The hosts were amazing, friendly, down to earth, and social. I didn't have to do much running around because they did everything for me which is serving the guests, lighting the cake candles, and cutting the cake. It was a nice and cozy atmosphere. The party was expensive but the host gave me an alternative to take the sides away from the choice of pizza which ended up being $150 cheaper. They decorate for you, too. The downside: the minimum guests allowed was 15 children. I had a hard time finding 15 kids for my daughter and I reached 12 but some people canceled. I still had to pay for the absent people. Which is $40 per child including their pizza fee which is $22 per child. The boxes of pizza were so small and the pizza was mediocre. The cake tasted "different" as one guest said. I tasted it myself and it was ok. You can't bring your food. If you're not a member, you get charged an extra $350. Overall: the children had fun and enjoyed it. I think the party is expensive to pay the hosts equally but the food didn't make sense with the expensive. I would book again if the downsides improved.

If you are a childless adult looking to workout - do not go here. Join FFC, Midtown, or even Xsport. This place is terrible value unless you have young kids and need daycare. The membership rate is $150+ for outdated equipment, kids running around everywhere at all times, high schoolers misusing and hogging equipment, and overall just very little space to actually workout despite the facility being huge. There isn’t that much actual equipment in comparison to commercial gyms. Also the front desk staff is not helpful and it’s impossible to get ahold of anyone in billing or membership. I’ve been over charged several times for things I didn’t sign up for or incorrect membership fees. Honestly a scam. I’m really disappointed in my experience here, with the exception of the tennis programs which are great.

I love this place. It has absolutely everything an individual or family could want. I joined as a college student at DePaul university and then returned with my children as well. Excellent exercise and yoga classes and the best tennis courts and coaches. The outdoor deck and dining area has some as the best views of Chicago which makes up for the lack of outdoor pool. There is an excellent indoor pool for serious swimmers. Did I mention the customer service is stellar.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I’ve been attending Lakeshore Sport and Fitness for over eight months now, and it has been an incredible experience! The classes are fantastic—Monday yoga with Manny is the perfect way to start the week, and Dylan’s cycling sessions on Tuesdays always keep me motivated. Carla’s body conditioning on Wednesdays is tough but so rewarding! A special shoutout to Kid Kampus and their amazing counselors, who have made it possible for me to maintain my wellness routine while being a busy mom. I can’t recommend Lakeshore enough for anyone looking for a supportive, fun, and effective fitness community!

I've been a member here for a few years and I really enjoy coming here. The staff and coaches are all great, very warm and welcoming. The gym is clean, has all the equipment that you need and is never too busy. I began taking the small group classes and personal training sessions a couple years ago and I've really noticed the positive changes that comes along with that, physically and mentally, especially with Coach Bryana's expertise. She has been an amazing personal trainer! She started me off at beginners level, teaching me proper form and mechanics as well as diet and nutrition to support my workouts. Now I'm dead lifting heavier than I ever expected!

I joined the Anytime Fitness Rockwell location about a year ago. I am not a "gym person" but I was out of shape and in pain from being too sedentary during the COVID pandemic. I started going to the gym to feel physically and mentally better and get stronger. I stuck with the membership because of the welcoming, supportive community the coaches create and maintain. I love the group classes and being able to access the gym 24/7. I still struggle with chronic back pain but the coaches are always willing to provide modifications to prevent further injury and check-in on how you're doing throughout the class. 10/10 would recommend!

Absolutely horrible. Staff hasn't refilled the kleenex in weeks. People resort to using tissues for wipes. There's never enough towels either.

So far, I love this place! The coaches/trainers are knowledgeable and know exactly how to correct my form to assure maximum gain from a workout and also to prevent injury. They’re very attentive with my concerns and willing to make suggestions for improvement, like flexibility. So far, Katelyn, Ashton, & David have been amazing! Thank y’all for being patient with me! 😜😁

Great space. Nice ambiance and a very friendly staff. You can build up the calories next door and then come here to burn them off

I worked out here for the first time today and the vibes are really weird overall, it's not a welcoming environment. This is something important to me when I look for a gym. There was a trainer named Patt (I looked at his name tag) who took a piece of equipment from me while I was using it (no, I didn't walk away from it and I was in the middle of my sets, I briefly stood up to take a sip from my water bottle), he did not acknowledge me at all and did not look at me, he just plopped his client on and completely took it, the moist annoying part about this was the other lat pull was free, he was just too lazy to get the proper attachment and decided to take mine because that is more convenient for him. I think that behavior says a lot about the gym itself and the culture at this club. The facility itself was also pretty dirty overall and a lot of people do not wipe down equipment after use despite the signs to do so, there is a lot of stuff on the floor (salt and dirt). I think for the actual price of the membership, it's definitely not worth it. There are so many better options in Chicago at that price point with better energy and well maintained facilities.

I've been a member at Lincoln Square Athletic Club for over a year now, and it’s been excellent! The gym is always spotless, and the staff members are very friendly. Recently, I needed help adjusting my membership, and Danny made the process smooth and easy. He was incredibly helpful, professional, and clearly dedicated to making sure members have a great experience. I always feel comfortable working out here, and the welcoming vibe keeps me motivated. Highly recommend LSAC to anyone looking for a nice neighborhood gym!

If you value being treated like a human when you need to cancel your membership because you moved 2,000 miles away, I don't recommend this gym. I actually enjoyed the facilities, but my experience with the customer service of their third party billing provider has been absolutely dreadful. Signing up is easy and then they'll hold you hostage once they have your credit card info.

Predatory membership and credit card policies, avoid this place and all its other affiliates. I forgot to update my CC after it was stolen and they charged me $23 with no warning via email, text or in person at the gym. Cool way to scam your members guys :p

Joined in mid February- Danny helped us and was super cool. I really love the robust class schedule, I pretty much only do classes. My only complaint about them is that I feel like I’m always stuck focused on the same muscle groups even in different classes. The locker rooms are nice and the gym is always clean- overall a great experience and a place that makes me actually enjoy exercising. The trainers are usually great and I never feel like I’m being shamed for moving at my own pace.

I have gone in as a guest on a few occasions. My experience was very positive. They have a variety of equipment, good music, clean environment. Staff is very helpful and welcoming. Dennis, the manager, does a great job and Nick ,staff member, was very accommodating.There's a good supply of cleaning equipment to use on the equipment before and after you work out. Some equipment may need replacement soon but that is to be expected when there is so much usage. If feel like that should be addressed by corporate and not fall on the staff. Overall, a great environment to work out in.

SH!TTY gym! Unclean, equipment is not taken care off, kids who don’t pay the membership come in and out and it’s unfair to those who DO pay. This place is always PACKED. This gym should not be 24hrs if anyone can just come in and out. Bathrooms are disgusting. Yoga mats are disgusting. Padding and handle grips on machines are nearly nonexistent. How is this place still open?!

They charge you 15.00$ if you let someone else in which is understandable. They send you the video also to prove you let them in. They charged me 15.00$ for letting someone in, but the video shows otherwise. I came in, door closed and 10-20 seconds later someone else came in. I did not let them in, but they still charged me 15.00$?. This gym used to be a good place to work out, but lately it has gone downhill. I have seen multiple people let others in and treat the gym like they own it. There’s homeless people coming and going as they please. I’d recommend either going to 71st CFX, cancel membership or work out at home.

I am astonished that a gym such as this is still in business. During my time at this gym I have experienced many danger hazards and unhygienic standards. To start I believe that a gym should maintain the cleanliness of their establishments to the best of their abilities. When you enter the gym restrooms be prepared to walk into one of the most foul smelling and dirtiest restrooms. To top it off the gym has managed to not maintain a certain standard for this situation. Next is the gym equipment. For the most part the equipment is not entirely clean but you can manage a good workout. The down side is weights are limited in my opinion. And the bars and bench pads are damaged. Many machines lack the material on the handles. Plus side they have kettlbells and turf. Be warry of walking barefoot in the restrooms have heard the most outrageous stories.

With in the last 3 years, this gym has really declined. It’s always dirty, the bathrooms smell horrible and are never clean, the turf patch is moldy, there’s trash everywhere, and there is a lot of defective equipment that doesn’t get cycled out, like bent barbells. On top of that, there’s always high school kids smoking and vaping in the bathrooms, and sometimes they’re wrestling in the middle of the gym. The workers seem to not care because I never see them at least address the smoking or the wrestling. As if the underage smoking in a public gym wasn’t bad enough, Sometimes, if you go early enough in the morning, there’s a homeless person in the gym. It’s just an overall horrible gym at this point. I wish I was making up this stuff.

I’ve been going to the gym for quite some time now. I didn’t know I needed A change of scenery, a change of atmosphere… until I entered Lockout and trained here for a couple of days…. This is a REAL gym. All the necessities and then some to push you further. That 80’s style Mecca of lifting type vibe… This is the gym you need.

This was a $45 dollar mistake. Their equipment is okay, good amount. Not super dirty and the women’s bathrooms are nice, but very few cleaning supplies for such a large space, and some nights where there are none around. They also lied over the phone about there not being a contract. The biggest problem is that it is not a welcoming environment. It’s supposed to be a community gym but the same 5 guys take over the music and turn it all the way up. I asked politely if they could turn it down as I was right next to speaker. They turned it down for 30 seconds and turned it back up and laughed. Mind you, I don’t care if it’s up a bit just more the fact that it’s not a safe environment to work out in as a woman if you’re not in their group. I went back another day and they saw me and turned the music up again and laughed at me. I used to manage a 150,000 ft gym and rec center and this gym leaves a lot to be desired- won’t be back again. Will not recommend to any women that want to seriously lift weights.

Not a good environment to work out in. Annoying, lazy clientele. No strong people. Planet Fitness type crowd. Bad music taste. Much prefer Handlebars II on Archer and Avers. Get a real workout in.

Love this gym!

I was visiting Chicago for the week and needed a gym. Joe was incredible! You can clearly see his passion for the community he has built and he is very hospitable. Joe was kind enough to show me around- I even had a few people come up to me and welcome me after. The community at this gym is nothing short of phenomenal and the equipment is impeccable. I have zero hesitation recommending this gym and will continue to come here anytime I find myself in the area. My only request is you get a Duffalo bar!! Maybe next time :)

When you first join Joe the owner takes the time to personally walk you through the facility and show you all the equipment and amenities. One key factor I love is that there is 24hr access for members with a fob and it has been nice being able to use the gym extremely early and avoid the crowd. I have to mention unfortunately I will not be in Chicago for a year due to the military, but Joe and the rest of iron mine staff were very helpful and worked with me. Not any gym takes the time for their members, over all I will miss this gym but I am definitely coming back once I’m back from military business.

I can't recommend this gym enough! From the moment I walked in, I felt welcomed by both the staff and the members. The community here is absolutely incredible, everyone is supportive, friendly, and always encouraging you to do your best. Whether you're a beginner or an experienced athlete, this is the place for you. The gym is top-notch, clean, and well-maintained. If you're looking for a gym that feels like a second home with an amazing group of people, this is the place to be!

I don’t think words could even begin to explain how kind the community of iron mine gym has been. I have been a member for about 2 months and I am constantly in awe that such an amazing and uplifting community of gym members exist. Joe has done an amazing job of not only curating a great selection of equipment but has truly made his gym a place members can feel comfortable and welcome in. Coming in each day has been a highlight of moving to the area.

As a primary cardio addict, I decided to join Iron Mine with the hopes of finally stepping out of my comfort zone. Strength training was mostly a foreign concept to me. I’d been a member at other various gyms, without ever branching out in my routine. There is definitely something to be said about the energy and overall community of Iron Mine that makes you want to become the better version of yourself. For the first time, I felt motivated by those around me to tap into my own strength and see what could possibly come of it. As a female, you will NOT feel intimidated here. You will, in fact, feel welcome and eager to see yourself grow. 24/7 access and no hidden fees or hurdles is really rare! Take the leap, you wont regret it.

Some improvement is needed but it has its advantages. You get 24 access and you can just come in and do whatever. Rules are common sense nothing weird. It’s a small space so sometimes it can feel crowded but comparing to La fitness and your other gyms it’s not as dense for sure. There are two things that are noticeably wrong though. 1) the ventilation isn’t good so it always smells musty, u can almost never see out the windows in the front bc of how foggy they are due to the sweat and poor ventilation and while this is unpleasant in the winter, it’s even worse in the summer time when they don’t have the AC at a good temperature. My other complaint is that often it’s not clean when you start paying attention. Like the machines, weight resting areas and sometimes the carpet. I’m sure it’s a hard job to have but this would make a huge difference. Could use a little more upkeep.

I don’t know about the negative reviews but I liked it. I never ran into staff and there’s usually 3-4 people in the entire gym. It’s cleaner than any other gym I’ve been to and everything has always worked. I wish they’d dim the lights a little but that’s just my personal preference. They also replaced “Member of the month” board with a “Pet of the month” and I got to enjoy looking a cute pets when checking in. In my opinion, the manager’s replies are what any person with common sense would think to say, but wouldn’t since ya know…corporate. I find it brave and refreshing. I’d recommend this gym without hesitation.

Devon Washington was an awesome person for streamlining and getting us ready for a week pass during my visit with my parents in Chicago. He was able to address any concerns I had and was very helpful. The gym was pretty cozy with very clean and updated equipment, and kudos to whoever organized the weights; it was no problem trying to locate the right weight to rack on to the squat bar. I am definitely going to reup my week pass next time I'm visiting my parents.

This is a great neighborhood gym. The staff is super friendly and they go to great lengths to ensure everything is always clean. The membership is a great community - never seen anyone with negative attitude or any kind of body shaming. And, if you're able to go during off-hours, the place is hardly crowded and equipment is always available. Plenty of cardio machines as well. This is a great local business to support - highly recommend.

I encourage anyone who is considering going to this gym to look at how the owner (or social media team?) replies to negative reviews so that they can see how unprofessional and egotistical they are. Instead of putting their efforts into improving the customer experience, someone is spending hours going on bizarre power trips where they reveal personal information about former clients? On the plus side it's really funny how dramatic they are. It sucks that I have to go to a gym further from my house to avoid this toxicity, but at least I can check back every once in a while to laugh at these small-minded weirdos. Hopefully at some point this place is under new management, because it would be nice to go to the gym that's closest to my house but there's no way I'm going near it in the meantime.

Got to planet fitness! The owner’s of the locations in this area are extremely cheap. Equipment is old and always broken and they have the nerve to only have one of each machine. Don’t waste your time or money please go to planet fitness instead. Anytime Fitness is garbage!

I’ve been in the process of switching gyms due to moving out of the neighborhood soon. Anytime fitness kept popping up and I decided to reach out. Brandon & Jose have been great with contacting me and their hospitality when I finally arrived in. The facility is not only clean but smells clean as well. Small but enough to get the job done and meet goals! Thank you!

I thought this was a great gym! I was visiting the area and thought I would give this gym a try. It seemed pretty clean and spacious. The equipment had good variety and was in good shape. Staff was really friendly. Would definitely recommend!

1) Great service. Brandon is incredibly welcoming and clearly knows the members of the gym. This is a great place for regulars. 2) Good range of equipment: machines, free weights, cables, and general space are all there. You might have to wait to work in on a spot, but the other people there are considerate. The only negative is that some equipment needs some TLC. A bench press rack had a bent weight rack, and a cable machine was broken. That said, even while I was there, the staff were fixing the cable machine!

I started in the gym recently. But I request the information to join about 6 month prior. Due to knee surgery I couldn’t start right away. Brandon helped me and provided all the information. Very friendly service.. 6 months later he still remember me when I join again. All the facilities are what I need it and the flexibility.

7/7/24 - I travel for work and I use Gympass when I travel to find a gym nearby. This one didn’t have good reviews but it was close to my hotel so I went to check it out anyway. I’m glad I did and here is my review. Erik was at the front desk and when I told him it was my first time there, he asked if I wanted a tour. The tour went good, they have the equipment I enjoy using so I stayed. When I first arrived the gym smelled nice, but I did notice the weights were out of the racks as mentioned in other reviews, there was white powder on the floor in different areas. The cleaning solution is located at the entrance with towels and I noticed patrons keeping there bottles and towels with them as they used different equipment, which seems like they should use a clean towel for each machine. The gym should provide paper towels vs regular towels because that is not very hygenic. I did notice Erik around the gym picking up weights and cleaning up as I was working out. He did a great job as everything was in its place when I left. People that are complaining about the weights not being reracked, I think this has more to do with the customers than the staff as we are all grown and should clean up behind ourselves, but the staff should enforce this rule when they notice patrons doing so. Without consequences the same thing happens all the time. Overall, I enjoyed the gym and will use it while I’m here in this area. Photos posted below. 4 stars is because the white powder should have been cleaned off the floor by night shift. I arrived at 8am and Erik had to do all the cleaning.

Showed up to use a free trial at 7:45pm on 9/25/24. Couldn’t use the free trial because “it takes days to show in the system” after signing up. Okay, understandable. Can I buy a day pass then? No “because I’m shutting the computer down soon so I can’t sell you a day pass right now… come back tomorrow”. I’m good.

Not a bad gym if you find the right time to go, when its not crowded. The equipment is very old but i guess it will do.

I go to the gym almost every day and whenever I see Erik he’s always so nice and open to answer any questions I have, he’s always on the move and making sure the gym is clean as I have not once been disappointed with the cleanliness of this establishment and can see why. Overall above and beyond care from the Erik.

Gym has been on a sharp decline since its rebrand. Equipment is constantly breaking and takes weeks to get repaired. Staff stays at the front desk on their phones or the computer instead of walking around cleaning, organizing and providing towels. Even their trainers don’t teach their clients to re-rack their weights. Only reason I haven’t left is because it’s 24 hrs and the family plan/ member add-on deals keep my monthly cost low.

Recently returned as a member after living out of state for years.... WHAT HAPPENED TO THIS PLACE?!?! What a joke! Terrible facilities - dirty - locker rooms smell terrible - showers suck - always walking into dirty toilets (always!!) Disgusting! In addition - what "luxury" club does not offer upscale products to shower and get ready with?!?! Just generic, goopy, mystery shampoos, soaps and lotions .... nasty and way out of touch with luxury gyms! Try to find management to suggest this to or complain.... ha - non existent or dismissive. Highly suggest you go somewhere else!

This gym has gone downhill - fast! 80's decor.... terrible food... horrible management... always finding pubes on my towels.... machines always broken - what a mess! WAY to expensive - like a Bally's! Take your business elsewhere!

Rachel Miller is not kind to her employees and is unfair. I’ve seen it firsthand. She is negatively impacting the ebc experience. Wouldn’t go back.

I love this country club so much! I would recommend it time and time again. As someone who has some experience with upscale gyms, EBC takes the cake 🍰. The staff is so friendly and knowledgeable. They’re so willing to answer questions upon signing up and have had the privilege to get a couple of tours of the facility since it’s so big and I forgot where things were lol. The members are also kind and it’s easy to socialize here. I’ve met some awesome women in my classes and can see myself continuing to make friends and acquaintances. Love how they have social events every so often. The food there is delectable, too. The pools are always clean and their rooftop is gorgeous. I would continually recommend this place. Such a good place to be at in Chicago, especially during the summertime. EBC is worth every penny and I will continue to be a member there for a very long time. Join!! You won’t regret it.

If you like drama, this could be your club. I've been a member here for two years. I received a phone call from Diane yesterday to inform me of a moment I'm having with one of there fitness staff. The staff member is saying things that are not true and Diane would rather take her word. I informed Diane that I have over one and a half years of text messages with this fitness instructor that would explain this moment and requested that I could come in and show her. She refused. I told her the following: You're hitting the bullseye on the wrong target, I believe your employee is stressed out and needs a vacation, I reassured her that I have zero interests in this fitness instructor romantically, and I did not cause this event. Here are some things that she could know if she would be open for discussing: The staff member asked me out (socially) and that goes against EBC policy. The staff member and I went out socially. The staff member has been in my home several times. This situation goes outside of her scope of employment. She does not have the right to affect a relationship that her own employee started with me outside of the scope of business. For the record I keep telling the employee I am not attracted to her. It's a moment that I think the employee is having some personal challenges in her life and she's taking it out on me. Diane- you have zero abilities to listen- I feel bad for your employees health, but I am not your problem.
