Great staff! Great selection of equipment!

I come here on occasion with a friend of mine and overall is a pretty good gym. Equipment is old but they have everything you need, including plenty of Hammer Strength Equipment, to get good workouts in. They also have a sauna, but would be nice if they had the pool up and going. Gym is slightly on the small side but pretty solid for the things you need.

I like what you get for the price but this building is literally falling apart. It leaks almost all year and stinks like moldy wet carpet and the tanning beds dont work. The West Aspen is super nice with brand new everything and always clean and updated. The east gym doesnt even get their scraps. They haven't done anything with the pool room for years and there are creepers hanging outside the saunas. Staff turnover is high. BUT ITS ALWAYS PACKED. Makes you ask what you are paying for.

I am somewhat picky on choosing gyms and really enjoy this gym.
It has nearly everything I need as a bodybuilder.
Great space and layout, availability of equipment even during peak hours. Never be afraid to ask to work in with someone if needed.
The staff are friendly and the cleaning crew is constantly working to keep the gym clean!

Very crowded at peak times. the equipment is old and needs updating. Some people can be aggressive if weights are dropped. Overall it is ok if you are comfortable in a gym and confident with lifting otherwise it can be an intimidating place. There are primarily body builders at this gym (all types from fitness competitors to people attempting to get their Pro cards)

Just another unorganized aspen. Not a surprise. The employees are undertrained and therefore create a poor guest experience due to a lack of knowledge. Customer service at this gym is nonexistent.

I have so much to say great about Aspen. All of them I have been to, at least. Friendly staff, cleaning crews are always staying busy, but also friendly to gym-goers. Aspen has every machine and array of weights you need. There's plenty of space, even when its crowded. Nobody judges you there, so don't worry if you feel you arent in the best of shape. The monthly costs are amazing compared to other gyms (Anytime Fitness is like 50 bucks a month and the gym sizes are tiny compared to Aspens 25 a month for ALL the gyms, with a few of them opened 24 hours). Aspen also allows you to bring a guest every day for free if you are on the 25 plan, they have tanning, executive locker rooms, day care services, local locations that are easily accessible. Great great gym highly highly highly recommend if you are any type of gym-goer

I love this gym! It is usually busy but not too hard to find a machine. The child care is super convenient, you do need to call ahead to make a reservation. The tanning is ok but a nice feature.

The absolute worst customer service I have ever delt with. Do not ever sign anything with these manipulative people. Charged rediculousluly for a nasty dirty gym. Then try to set a personal training appointment and the girl no shows. Call and talk to whoever "Abe" is and will not do anything to make things right. They make it sound like such a good deal and a good gym and it is in reality a COMPLETE joke.

I was a member here for a couple years because it was close to where I lived. The equipment is very old and the levers are always broken or a piece always seems to be missing. They also charge an annual fee of $75 on top of your membership yet they never updated anything. The last month I was a member they got rid of their wifi for a month due to issues and per the location I didn't have signal so I couldn't play my music while I worked out. I ended up going in and cancelling and switching to Planet Fitness down a few blocks. The same month I cancelled was apparently the same month the annual fee is charged and they were not friendly about refunding me, don't understand why I should contribute another $75 dollars to a membership I won't be attending and also a club that never updated equipment.

Best gym in des moines

I hate leaving bad reviews but unfortunately this is where I'm at. I repeatedly tried calling and stopping by the S.E 14th location and nobody is there to help with signing up for a membership or answering the phone. The same goes for the Fluer location. What has happened to these gyms? They used to be great...used to be.

Great place...staff always professional, large variety of equipment, plenty of cardio machines, tanning beds, basketball court, fitess/yoga classes PLUS, sauna and steam room

October 25, 2017 06:24

Plenty of cardio machines, but the weights can get very crowded at peak hours.

They need to remove the picture of the pool because the pool has been closed indefinitely.

Edit: need to re-open the pool tbh

I've never been in a more dirty gym. Most of the equipment has been damaged for years, or it's just old and untrustworthy.

The Barbbells are ALL old, with horrible knurling (grip). One of them is even bent, and has been bent for a while. There's is only ONE power rack, meaning if someone wants tod earlier while someone else is using it, the entire gym is filled with the sound of weights hitting the ground... they need to update their equipment (even if it's slowly) this gym is WAY to busy to be neglected like this - Where is the money going? Everyone pays extra money a year for "maintenance" and I couldn't even GUESS where they money goes.

The best weight equipment I found in Des Moines, steam room and dry sauna. Clean but a little disorganized and members are terrible about racking weights and stripping equipment. I wish the hours of operation were a greatly expanded especially Friday, Saturday & Sunday. The club should be open till at least midnight every day but 24 hours would be great. Hours are designed for someone that works M-F 9 to 5 and that's just not realistic anymore.
