VASA Fitness

This gym is totally fine for working out in; however, this gym is extremely dirty. The equipment and facilities all seem neglected and there is caked on dirt, grime, and dust in all of the not easily accessible locations of the equipment and facilities. The presence of this dirt and grime shows a lack of diligence to the owners and managers of the location. I understand how this occurs and a review should be completed of the cleaning process to ensure that all portions of the equipment see proper maintenance, including cleaning. It might seem trivial but this detail speaks a lot about the overall care of the business. If the equipment is clean the equipment is usually safe and well taken care of. If the equipment is clean the precieved quality of the gym goes up. Equipment that is functional but dirty is unacceptable. The facilities are also often dirty and caked with grime. The mens locker room is disgraceful and I fear contracting a disease from the bench or floors. The floors and bathrooms often have standing water and piss everywhere. I wish that it was acceptable to take photos of the inside of the locker rooms so that this could be added for evidence. This location also seems to have plenty of staff as almost every time I have been there has been 3-5 people behind the counter chatting. When these people are chatting I see nobody walking the gym floor or spot cleaning. I believe that this location has the resources and the ability to turn this review around and I would love to see this happen. I would love the team to really consider this review and also take a look at other gyms. A field trip to a couple of planet fitness locations could be beneficial as they seem to have good operations and the equipment seems to be much cleaner in general.

Jacob at the West Valley location is a bad ass and has a great attitude about what he does . There was a lot of mud in the men’s bathroom naturally from the weather and people coming in and out with work boots on (it happens.) While I was in the hot tub area I asked Jacob if he could have someone mop it up, not right in that moment, but when he or someone else had time. Jacob jumped on it immediately and went and mopped up the men’s locker room, which, in my opinion says a lot about his pride of a job well done and what he does working for vasa. This gym also has everything you need to get in shape, invest in your health, and work towards your fitness goals at a competitive price!!

This location is going downhill fast. The pool is always frigid and the aqua teacher is losing her class to other locations with a warm pool. I should not have chattering teeth by the end of a pool workout. The front desk staff do not care about anything. I went to tell them there was no hot water for the showers and he told me it’s been out for a while. When I told him a sign would be nice, he back pedaled and said it goes in and out and maintenance can’t figure it out. I am close to canceling my membership all together. Do better owner and corporate.

Suzie taught on another amazing Studio Red class. Every single class she comes in with enthusiasm and shows that she cares. She comes prepared. She makes sure that she checks in with everyone to find out if they have any limitations and is great coming up with alternative exercises. I wish every Vasa coach was as amazing as Suzie!

Was looking for a local gym during my two week visit. Got told it was $15 on the phone. Walked in and was told it was $105, 15 to start the membership, which is the most deceptive bait and switch I’ve ever had. I’m sure the facility is nice, didn’t make it past the desk though. *edit- I eventually called again to figure out where the disconnect was and was walked through the hoops to get a short term membership. The facility itself is decent, way crowded in the afternoon, good equipment, I’d expect weight belts and dip belts at the price, but otherwise not bad.
