I am a fan of Equinox in other cities and the new Lincoln Common location, however the Lincoln Park location is poorly run ( management and staff don't know what they're doing) and in need of a total makeover. For the fees they charge you're better off joining a local gym for $25 a month because the LPK Equinox location isn't much better.

Don't join this Gym, its not really worth of the money that you spend for membership fees, let alone year membership. This is a filthy club that has soiled & years old towels , uncleaned bathrooms, dirty sauna and uncleaned steam rooms. The sauna never heats up. Lousy management, no response to resolve the issue I brought to them through emails. They charge differently for different people, take your money elsewhere. Its not worth.

I was skeptical about switching over to Equinox at first based on its price, but after a trial period of using the gym, I really fell in love with it and ended up switching over from FFC! The classes are better than any gym I've tried with a huge selection, quality instruction, and they fill the classes so there's plenty of energy and enthusiasm! The employees are helpful and friendly. The app has recently been redesigned and is awesome. When you reserve a treadmill or a bike with the app. the workout is automatically uploaded to your account so you can view stats and workout totals! I do wish that this location had a pool and hot tub, it's unfortunate that it doesn't, but if you get the Chicago Pass, the Lincoln Commons location has a pool within walking distance. Overall I'd highly recommend Equinox, especially if you like taking fitness classes!

Great classes, especially the yoga classes. The facility is very nice and staff are all friendly. If I could just review the facility and staff, this review would receive 5 stars.

However, there's a trend in the reviews about the bad management and cancellation policies and I absolutely agree. I had to cancel my membership due to a move but the process was like pulling teeth. I had to provide proof of address change and apparently a letter with new address is enough but a new building welcome letter and a page from my lease weren't enough. I had to show a *signed* lease and the whole back and forth process over email took over 2 weeks.

Advice to management: outline your policies *clearly*. This whole experience made me feel like I was forging my move.

Not worthy of the Equinox brand name. Staff are nice, management is lousy as noted in other reviews. The gym itself is the same as any other, just with eucalyptus towels and good showers.

My experience: I put a clause in my contract to be on a 3-month paid-trial as I did not want to commit to 12 months. Sales was happy to add that. Management did not honor it when I decided I wanted to leave and it's taken me over a month to get this resolved... It's still not resolved.

Equinox in Lincoln Park offers great classes!

Definitely recommend spinning class is really fun there for both guys and ladies. Also, check out Allison Yoga classes, too.

Reasonable affordable price. Clean modern and peaceful. Huge locker rooms with plenty space. Parking available free on Canon Drive if you find a space or parking meter on Clark Street.

Fancy pancy nice gym with free validated parking across the street in the history museum lot. They have tons of equipment, unique group fitness classes including TRX and yoga variations and the best...a cool lavender towel when you finish. They also have a juicy juice on the first floor, a spa and other amenities. This location is close to Lincoln Park zoo and the lake.

I have been a member here for many years. I go mainly for the group fitness classes which are fantastic. The instructors are knowledable and lead exciting and interesting classes. Also, everyone is pretty friendly which makes for a great environment to work out in.

Very spacious...beautiful changing rooms for the ladies -- lots of areas. They have nice wood lockers for our jackets and purses, shower area, changing room area, two separate types of sinks -- one to wash your hands while the other for brushing your teeth. They even have a blowdryer. Nice gym equipment. Staff was very enthuastic and pretty helpful. I went for a cycling class -- fun yet you sure get a workout!

Way too much money for what you get. Cardio equipment is constantly broke. For the money you spend it should be newer. I spent most of my time reporting broken equipment. It was such a pain.

Management is terrible here and they really don't care about the customer. They only care about signing members and keeping the money rolling in. A complete disconnect, especially the General Managers annoying form emails that are cold and automated. He probably never even reads them or knows there being sent out.

In 13 months this location also went through 4 General Managers which probably led to all the inconsistency. If I could do it over I would have never joined this club and spent my money on something else. In fact, I felt ripped off by Equinox for what I got in return.

On a side note the staff is really nice and work really hard. The trainers, front desk, kids club & locker room attendants are wonderful. If I could write them a separate review I'd give them 5 stars.
