Gym itself, is great, I'd give it 5 stars. But one time I came in to work out at 3am and there was a family *living/sleeping* in the bathrooms. While I was lying on a bench press about to lift the family of 5 scurried from either the male or female bathroom (I couldn't tell since I was lying prone facing up and away from the stalls) and into a minivan parked outside. This was around 2011 and the economy hadn't quiet pulled out of the Obama recession at that point so I understand.
I had to relocate away from Durham so I went to the club on November 30, 2018 to cancel my membership. I have been a member there for over 8 years. I gave my notice in person to the owner, he said what I needed to do was send an email to the club as my written notice. I did that the same day. I knew I would be charged for December because it was within the 30 day notice. I was then charged again in January. I emailed the owner several times and never got a response. I called ABC financial, who does the payment processing for Anytime Fitness and explained my situation. They asked me to forward my email notice that I had sent to the club owner and they would take care of it, I forwarded the email. I then got an email from ABC Financial saying that I needed to send a written notice by US mail to cancel my membership. I sent a written notice by certified mail. I was just charged for February. I've been made to pay $54 a month for the past three months for a membership I couldn't use. ABC financial and Anytime fitness just don't care about treating people right.
The cardio machines are all fine, but the free weight section needs a major update. The weights are all old and worn out. The dumbbells don't say how much they weigh, there are no clips for bar bells, all the rubber grips have worn off, and the benches are super worn.

The gym is smaller than other gyms, and some of the equipment is not as modern as others, even considering their reasonably price, but the facility is clean and has at least one of any piece of equipment you may need. Corey the trainer is extremely nice, as are all of the staff. During my 2 years here as a member, I've never had a negative experience with any employees or other patrons.

Broken exercise equipment and yucky bathrooms. I want to take a shower but have to drive elsewhere
By far the worst anytime I've been to its dirty, smelly, and the equipment is old and wore out I would suggest the one in Greensboro that's the best one over ever been to

I loved the location and knowing I could fit my work out in at anytime of the day. But it is way over priced and something is always broken. With membership fees that high they should be able to take better care of the equipment. Very disappointing

+ convenient location
+ relatively clean
- Old, rusty equipment.
- Only one squat rack.
- Only one bench.
- No deadlift platform.

Loved working out there. No judgment is set on you as you workout

Dirty and smelly, but it's basically the only gym in the area. I would recommend against paying the premium for this gym especially since every other anytime fitness is a million times nicer in every way. The staff is pretty helpful however so there is that.
Old equipment mostly works ok, if not quite as well as it should. Right now I wouldn't join as a new member though - the hot water heater broke over a week ago so there's no way to take a shower there. It's not a big deal if you're stopping by on your way home from work, but it makes stopping by to exercise first thing in the morning before work (like I'm used to doing) out of the question. After 5:30pm the place gets pretty full; it's been very aggravating and inconvenient to have to move my workouts to that time. So, "anytime" fitness really hasn't lived up to its marketing. Trying not to think about the sanitation either -- no one walking out of the restrooms has washed their hands with warm soapy water before touching the machines.
Equipment is old and beat up. Place is kinda dirty. The water fountain barely works. But it has a great location to Brier Creek area housing.
The equipment is showimg its age. The air conditioning is not strong enough to cool the facility during peak time and for a couple of hours after, they have to prop open the doors to cool the room. There are people who have had multiple complaints against them for making obnoxious noises, not cleaning equipment after use and other infractions who are still behaving badly and still have a membership. There needs to be more equipment that is commonly used such as hand weights and weight benches. Also, there is carpeting over 2/3 of the space which I don't think is hygienic. They also need new floor mats that are actually padded like yoga mats. Other than that, it's ok.
great place to workout and convenient. ANYTIME! Friendly place and great staff

No locker room.

I guess pictures say it all. This is the situation of the GYM and has been ever since I joined 5-6 months back. This is just an example from the many out there either broken or torn. Also, they take $20 maintenance from everyone just to maintain I guess their bank accounts.
