On the gym: (Queen Village location)
-The gym is old
-Floors are uneven in the dumbbell area (hazardous)
-Equipment is old
-Stair machines are old, always breaking and one is rusted
-Ceiling has a huge hole in it with moldy sheetrock
-Bathrooms are dirty and smell
-Buckets catch water from leaks
On other options:
Planet Fitness - cheap and new, very well maintained
City Fitness - more money, but a premium gym and experience
On canceling:
They will cite a "2 month notice" policy in your contract in which you have two pay 2 month's fee for no reason, so an additional $100 that they pocket. Beware of that.
Please look at other options before coming here.
Always clean, well organized, friendly staff... I love this gym
I struck out swinging trying to cancel my membership. I went in person and cancelled but two months later I'm still getting charged. Strike one. I called and the person assured me they would handle it. Haven't heard back. Strike two. I emailed support, but no response there either. Strike three. If you plan on cancelling within the next six months I'd encourage you to get the ball rolling now.
All the equipment I used was well maintained, freshly painted, and working great. The bench press was the perfect height and the hooks were exactly what they needed to be. All the weights were well organized and all the equipment was easy to find. The area was open, well lit, and well organized. Everyone there was also really friendly. I was a walk-in and the whole process was super easy. Thanks guys!
Nice place with having all the necessary equipment. The place was cool enough and the atmosphere was full of motivation. Superb!!
Updating my review and here is an unbiased review. The gym is mediocre but the people that go to the gym are friendly. There is a range of beginners to experience bodybuilders, and no one judge. Overall, not a bad gym just a bit pricier than some of the other gyms with the same equipments. Also, this won't get mention but only a manager can cancel your account.

absolutely terrible gym. stinky bathroom, always filthy, personal trainers are arrogant and pushy and treat "regular" gym members like intruders
go on yelp and you will see if you sign up they try to keep taking your money and make it hard to quit so not only horrible but a bit desperate

Least favorite of all Sweat gyms in Philly. Unhelpful, uncaring, and often incapable staff (who, incidentally, rarely pick up the phone). At least it's big.
My favorite place when I'm in town. Our business has maintained a group membership for I don' know how long now. Some of the things that folks on here criticize I love, like the fact that it's an old parking garage with the occasional leaky pipe. Never had an issue.

Been here a few months now, some trainers are cool. Some are ass, I pay a membership fee to use the equipments. It's so hypocritical when they hog the equipments and won't share it when they're using it. So don't interrupt me when I'm using the equipments. Not a good gym to go to and for the price you pay it doesn't offer a lot either. Sadly, I'm stuck with it for another month because it will cost me 100$ just to cancel my membership.
Great gym. Friendly staff, good group of regulars. I've been at this facility for over a year and I've grown to love it. I go there each morning between 5 and 6 to get a good workout in before work. I also frequent in the afternoons and on the weekends and regardless of the time of day number of visitors is manageable and I never have issues accessing the specific equipment needed. I love the spacious group workout room which provides a nice space to get a couple hundred skips done between sets. I also like the speed with which equipment troubles are handled... look, stuff breaks - that's unavoidable... but the staff their are quick to label the impacted device and it's never long before the issue is addressed. Highly recommend... good value for money. Say hi if you see me there, I'm the guy with the jumprope :-)

I'm glad my $45 "yearly enhancement" fee is actually going to real enhancements like, dripping water from pipes above, a missing roof, and a roped off section from the missing roof.
Cool facility in an old multi story warehouse. Has everything you need for real athlete training. I am a 6 day a week OCR and rugby guy. $15 for the guest fee in Queens Village.
Would not recommend. They strung customers on for over a year with the opening of their One South Broad location. They were neither transparent nor honest about why the delays kept occurring, and they tried multiple underhanded tactics (like billing my card when I was on a freeze and having free personal training sessions 'expire' before the gym had even opened.
To give you an idea of just how underhanded, they used to have a separate Google Review for their One South Broad location but they de-listed it because of all the bad reviews.

The gym is great, but what an outdated process for canceling your membership! When I signed up at the gym, I was told after my first year my gym membership went "month to month", and that I could cancel anytime. A year and a half later, I go to cancel my membership because I was moving out of the area. I couldn't cancel my membership on site, I had to call into a hotline for an external billing service. On the phone I was told calling in wasn't enough. I had to provide them with written notice...two months out! So I was stuck paying my bill for two more months!
What a byzantine and antiquated process! How can you say membership is "month to month" after a certain point when it requires two months to cancel!? And what's the point of going to a neighborhood gym as opposed to one of the big chains if I have to deal with a external hotline for billing issues? Sadly, this final experience soured my opinion of Sweat Fitness
Overall a good gym though some of the machines at the Passyunk location need minor maintenance (worn pads, etc.)
Good gym. Could be updated with another squat rack and new bumper plates, but overall a solid value.
This SWEAT is roomy. And has reasonable weights for lifting. For the price its really not bad. Its dirty & some of equipment is falling apart. But Ive been a member since 2011 & havent once thought to go looking for another gym. Biggest qualms is: there will be clean towels up front maybe half the time, theyre always running out. And the SWEAT X thing ( a premium version of the same gym with more equipment) just steals space, equipment and cleaning attention from the rest of the gym.
After my experience I would suggest others be cautious of their "promotions" or "special offers." I went to try out the gym. The trainer told me that since I was previously a member of another location 2 years ago I am not eligible for any promotions and that I would need to pay $15 to try the gym for a workout. This was annoying becasue their website explicitly states that non members can try the gym for a day for free. There was also a sign outside offering a $10 trial but since I was a member at a different location 2 years ago I am to be charged at a higher rate. Quite awkward actually. I wish they would state this on their promotional materials so I did not waste my time going down there.
Excellent gym. A motivating environment and not a scene. The personal training staff is awesome!
Please make the cancellation process less painful.
