I love working out at Sweat, especially this location. The space gives it a family feel, but gritty enough to put you in the right mindset to crush your exercises. It's pretty straight forward but also gives you the feeling that you're in an actual gym to PUT IN WORK! No need for the glits or glam. Just straight to the action! It's also located in a great area with lots to do outside of the gym. I would definitely recommend to anyone who wants to put in a REAL workout.

I really enjoy this gym. It has good amenities despite being a smaller gym. I love that classes are included in the membership. I use one of the workout rooms when classes aren't in session and it's so great to have a quiet place to do my thing

I recently moved to Manayunk for grad school. And I started going to all the small yoga and spin boutique gyms. But unfortunately being a student my funds are a bit tight. And I cant afford to pay boutique prices. Here at Sweat I am able to get classes included with my membership, and the instructors/ classes are just as good, if not better.

Someone wrote a review talking about monitoring your credit card for billing errors. This is very true however, if you bring it to their attention, it will be fixed.
I discovered that another location was taking money out of my account every month even though I never signed on with them. I spoke to 2 different front desk people at Manayunk and one of them gave me an email to someone that could help and she did. Vienna was so kind and patient and the issue was eventually solved.
As far as the equipment, I don't ask for much in a gym so my only complaint is I wish they'd bring back the stair-master. They replace it with a stepper when it broke down but I miss it.

Pros: Walkable from main street
Cons: roof leaks and you will have to monitor your credit card for constant billing errors

The value is not that great here compared to other big name brand gyms. Rude staff, very dirty gym and older equipment. Bathrooms atrocious. Showers have cold water and gym members trash in them. Inadequate lighting in certain parts of the gym floor. Careful of the 50 dollar cancellation fee and 60 days notice, ends up being 120$ charge after cancellation. Could not waive the cancellation fee at least for me when i told them i have a free gym at my new job. Had a much better time at Planet Fitness and LA Fitness. Im hearing Crunch is really good too.

Generally I like going to Sweat. Their staff has always been friendly to me. They have a decent amount of benches for free weights and a fair amount of machines.
My biggest pet peeve is that the exercise bikes are falling apart or they are uncomfortable/ out dated.

Ceilings leak old beat up gym and a lot of members relative to the equipment. I was also a division one athlete and the trainers here are not great. Contracts are very misleading. You are locked into 1 year then have to give a two month notice before canceling after 1 year of membership. I recommend LA fitness over this as I have been to both and LA is cheaper, nicer and has less binding contracts.

Has most equipment, fairly small and somewhat clean.

I have had no complaints until recently, when a staffing changed occurred for the morning shift. The gym has been failing to open or being open late on a consistent basis. Other than the gym not opening at its scheduled hours, I enjoy the facility.

I enjoy going to Sweat though some of the cardio equipment is damaged or outdated, like the stairmaster.

I'm been a Sweat manayunk member for over a year. The classes are awesome. They are worth the monthly price. The teachers are great. Not sure why it has such low reviews. It's a good gym with great classes for a reasonable price.

Absolutely love this gym! When I first started coming here I was a bit shy, but Ellie and the rest of the staff made sure to go out of their way to introduce themselves and go over workouts with me, and made me feel more comfortable and confident in the process. They are extremely friendly and helpful, and I recommend this gym highly to anyone who has real body goals in mind, because the personal training is on point! The gym is never overloaded and it has a great atmosphere. Sweat is definitely my gym of choice!

Sometimes whoever is working at the desk will blast their own music, which is kind of annoying as mostly everyone uses headphones when they work out. Also, the cancellation policy of 60 days notice is not ideal, especially because I was not informed of said cancellation policy when I joined. But the manager waived part of it for me, which was helpful.

I have been a member of sweat fitness for years. The gym has everything I need and the price is right. The staff is very friendly and makes you feel at home. If you need anything just ask Joe. This guy is the king of customer service. He knows everyone's name...he even knows my dogs name.

Perfect gym for someone who really wants to get it in
