I'm very disappointed they continue to charge us money during gym closure, more then 2 months. They offered credit but no refund. No credit needed because we are ending our memberships. It is not fair.

Unfortunately if you live downtown you have few options. It's the only pool (which for some reason is never cleaned). They raised prices and told no one, and then had maintenance problems all winter that left the pool area with no heat. Nice people, just really poor maintenance. Charleston needs a good YMCA. Don't try to drive there except on the weekends.

Great gym with a ton of amenities. Wish they were open later though..

After being a member for 24 years they raised the prices to $76 with no
advance warning. I have made many friends there and the staff is wonderful. There is plenty of ways to cut cost in a business. Never mess with your guaranteed revenue stream. Mgt. made a mistake in my opinion and I'm disappointed.
I only used the gym 2-3 days a week. You guys just lost a wonderful 24 year guaranteed annuity stream. I'd love to have someone explain to me how this makes good business sense. Planet Fitness here I come for 19.95 a month.

Great facility! Probably the best in Charleston overall. I was actually thinking of rejoining, but the community price went from $60 to $76 since I canceled my membership in February.
I'm not paying $76. I'll check out O2.

Staff are nice but for the price tag, not really worth it if you are a self directed gym goer. There's a plethora of cardio equipment and raquetball courts, but the weight area is tucked away on the lower level and is dingy and full of rusty and broken equipment. There are nicer, cleaner gyms with equipment that is better kept for more reasonable prices all over Charleston. Additionally the hours are very limited so if you're a morning gym person and have to be to work next door at the hospital for an early morning shift , you're not going to have enough time for a hard or long workout.

It is worth spending money to go to this fine facility. I am excited to go there and even more important I want to go workout.

When I went to your typical franchise gym with the lower membership fee it got boring, and it seemed monotonous. It was more of a chore going to the gym.

There is always something new at Wellness Center. You will never be bored.

Quality gym, very professional and clean. Membership fee is pretty steel but I feel it is worth it due to the high number of amenities. It is pretty crowded in the morning and after 5. Busy enough all the other times. I would still highly recommend them!

I enjoy the classes at the gym however am really disappointed by the lack of evening classes. Having the latest class everyday be 6 or 6:30 pm makes it extremely hard for those with jobs to make it to the gym in time for the class. For me, and several other members and non-members I've spoken to this is the biggest downside to this otherwise good gym. Group X please please consider slating some later classes.

Fitness center is awesome with world class facilities

Nice facilities, but front desk service is terrible. After the usual yoga teacher was not in class for two weeks in a row, I asked the front desk if she was expected back (because I prefer her class and wasn't sure if maybe the schedule changed and now she teaches the yoga class on a different day - or if maybe she found a job elsewhere, etc) and the man at the front desk was BEYOND rude. His response was "LISTEN this is a big place - she don't report to me and I don't report to her - I don't know when she asked to take time off and she doesn't know when I ask for time off!" I just found that to be completely unnecessary and very rude. He could have politely told me he didn't know. Also, as a front desk associate at the gym I feel like the group exercise schedule should be part of their knowledge for members.

I love it...but closing at 5 on Saturday and 7 on Sunday.... lame. How many members do you have? Expand your hours...

Great locker room and cardio equipment selection.

Not enough morning class options (for people that have to be at work before 9). Weekend hours are inconvenient. Group class instructors are hit or miss.

Best downtown gym! Has everything you need and then some. The free classes alone are worth the monthly fee.

As a student, being forced to pay $300/year for a gym with a split weightlifting area and bad WiFi doesn't make me a fan. The membership I have to the Golds on JI is $10/month and they have significantly better equipment for weightlifting.

Great gym, clean, tons of equipment, loads of classes. Parking can be a problem, it's in a real busy area.
Recently discovered their spin class! Fantastic instructors help me to burn up to 700 calories in an hour!

Best in town. Pool, steam room, sauna, plenty of equipment, plenty of classes. I joined 5 years ago, looked at others but none compare.

While a few people socialize, this is an introvert's version of a gym. Get in, get your workout done, and get on with brain surgery, intensive care heroics, or whatever it is that is next on your crowded calendar. Nicely maintained equipment and thoughtfully crowd-controlled. Avoid the 6AM rush for the best experience. Late-night is best. The pool is under-used and great value for the cross-training user.

AM Boot Camp is hard work and worth every minutes. The Marines are tough, but great motivators.

First rate gym. Best in CHS hands down. Nice indoor basketball court and good cardio equipment. I have a parking card and never have issues with getting a spot. Busy Saturday AM's sometimes the lots get filled, so maybe that is what people are complaining about.

My only real gripe with them is that they run kids camps out of the gym and they last all summer and every long holiday (Christmas) it is jammed up with children. I love kids I have 3 of my own. I dont love when I come to work out, play basketball and they have the whole court taken up with kids and members arent allowed in gym. The fix would be simple, look out for your members FIRST and keep kids camps off basketball courts.
