    I’ve been trying to cancel my membership here for over a month. I have not received a single call back, and have not received a single reply to any of the 10 or so emails I’ve sent. This is getting ridiculous, I’ve even tried reaching another location that is owned by the same person. No success here either. These places just aren’t answering anything. **update** Someone from the other location finally reached out but I will need to make 2 more payments before membership is officially closed.

    I love the location as it's centrally located, and the huge wall of windows here overlooks New Edinburgh. Main drawbacks for me are that it's smallish in comparison to other locations, and you will likely have to wait to use a machine. I personally don't find this gym as clean as some of the other ones in this area. The machines look dirty at times, dusty too. There's no separate studio to lift lighter weights or do your stretches. There's a designated area but not enclosed.

    Small and cozy gym 24/7. You’ll find here everything you need to be fit and strong. Good membership packages

    ⚠️PLEASE ⚠️ I highly recommend you not to deal with this gym, firstly they make you signe up for a 1year contact without any notice, the manager never understood my point. I decided to freeze my acc. They charged me a moths when it was total lockdown 🤨 with no refund. All I’m saying they don’t care about customer and the Manger and stuff members are Everything except friendly.

    I love this gym (Beechwood location)! It has everything I need plus more. Staff are kind, helpful and courteous. There is enough (fun) equipment and space for me to complete my workout. It doesn't tend to be overly busy and there is free parking.

  • 2/5 Jay Z. 3 years ago on Google
    Not a terrible gym, but small. Also, ignoring cancellation requests over covid, so pretty terrible people. There's a much better option down the street.

    I've been coming to this gym for over two years now. It has comprehensive exercise equipment from bikes and machines to squat racks - all of which are in excellent condition. It's also the cleanest gym I have ever visited - at any hour of the day. The staff is very helpful, inviting and caring and it shows. A true gem of a facility and absolutely worth checking out!

    Anytime Fitness Beechwood offers an exceptional fitness experience! From the friendly staff and top-notch equipment to the 24/7 accessibility, this gym has exceeded my expectations. The knowledgeable trainers provide personalized guidance and the supportive community makes workouts enjoyable. Reasonable membership rates and attentive management complete the package. I highly recommend Anytime Fitness Beechwood to anyone looking for a welcoming gym that caters to all fitness levels and helps you achieve your goals with ease.

    It has been my WORST experience in life, which I am absolutely going to share everywhere. Anytime Fitness proved to be a trap, where once you come in, there is no way out. I made a huge mistake, registered with them.

    This gym absolutely rocks. It may be a touch small, but the staff are fantastic and it's always tremendously clean. I have also yet to experience any equipment being broken/unavailable for more than a few days at most. Admittedly, it can get busy around peak hours (typically 4pm-6pm on weekdays) but for the most part, there is always equipment available to use. However, it's open 24/7, so if you're able to go outwith these times, you'll be golden. The regulars are also exceedingly friendly, and everyone is respectful and courteous towards one another. The staff go out of their way to ensure you get the most out of your workout and they provide the most pleasant experience possible. I cannot recommend this gym enough. I've been a member for over a year now and I really enjoy coming here (mostly) every day!

    An absolutely amazing experience! The gym staff are extremely understanding of people’s situations and work around it to find a way so that everyone can get what they need. Super nice staff, immaculate equipment and overall a good vibe in the gym! I am a man, but so far I haven’t had any weird people stare at me my entire workout so that’s nice! I went to see them because they were supposed to augment my monthly fee and they waived it and told me to forget about the increase and to just enjoy my workout! 10/10 would recommend to everyone I meet to attend the beechwood anytime fitness!

    Probably one of the best gyms I've been to! Has everything you would want from a gym (large selection of weights, squat racks, cardio equipment, etc) and the staff are incredibly kind. Just great energy. Love this place and would definitely recommend!

  • 5/5 Lovisa S. 2 years ago on Google
    I love the Anytime Fitness on Beechwood Avenue. It's friendly, informal, and relatively small -- and yet has everything you need for a serious workout. Kim, one of the personal trainers, is amazing. She's knowledgeable, thoughtful, and a ton of fun. I find myself looking forward to every single workout. Thank you!!

    Caffeine Kim (Personal Trainer) is a great way to start the day! The morning crew are also a good bunch. Location is excellent and there is free parking in the lot and on the road, which is a nice bonus for an inner-city gym.

    This gym is really amazing. The equipment is always clean, and the music is always blasting. They have basically everything you’ll need to have a good workout, and the windows are nice for the views and natural sunlight. JL and the rest of the staff team are always very attentive and great to ask if you need any feedback on your workouts.

    Great location, clean with recent equipment. Very Covid-19 sensitive and safe environment. Staff is awesome and very knowledgeable. I recommend👍

    Great place to workout, not very busy. Was happy to see cleaning equipment and plexiglass dividers throughout the gym.

  • 5/5 matthew b. 3 years ago on Google
    Super clean, good selection of exercise stuff, friendly staff, open 24/7 and parking don’t see what else you’d need.

  • 5/5 Lee L. 3 years ago on Google
    LOL can’t believe there’s 5 ppl at 4am. Good and clean place, has parking, that’s all I need.

  • 5/5 Raquel G. 9 months ago on Google
    I’ve been coming to this gym for 2.5 years now, the staff are very friendly, the location is always clean and I love that it’s 24/7.

  • 5/5 Christian K. 2 years ago on Google
    Amazing staff/management who make everyone feel welcomed and equal to one another. Makes it feel like a close community. They ensure everyone does their part during these covid times to ensure everyone's safety and mental health. Highly recommend if you'd like to feel like you're a part of a community rather than just another person with a gym membership where nobody knows your name or even makes an effort to greet you at the door.

  • 1/5 Clint G. 11 months ago on Google
    So many rules can't stay more then 1 hr not enough squat racks sometimes takes 20 minutes to get one then u can only stay Max time of 1 hr so that leaves 40 min to work out staff are friendly tho

  • 3/5 Christopher W. 1 year ago on Google
    I think they’ve oversold their membership. There’s only two squat racks and they’re always taken, even now as I type this at 10pm. Forget about using one during peak times of the day. And one guy has been sat on the lat pull-down for 20 minutes.

  • 5/5 Kael V. 2 years ago on Google
    Covid safety, (2M apart and mask) was respected by everyone and it’s a pretty gym where you can train with a pretty view of Ottawa! There are lots of machines so you can train every muscle 💪

  • 5/5 Hamza R. 2 years ago on Google
    Good gym. Great atmosphere and covid measures are in effect.

  • 5/5 jodi b. 2 years ago on Google
    The staff make this gym! They're warm and welcoming, always, and set the tone for patrons. It has all the facilities I need even though it's a fairly small space. I always leave uplifted, in a great mood -- so important in these dark winter days.

  • 5/5 E L. 2 years ago on Google
    Good selection of properly working equipment. If/when repair or fixing is needed, it's done as quickly as possible. Parking availabilty is a huge bonus. Polite, attentive, cheerful staff are keeping busy on a regular basis with looking after the gym. General upkeep, cleanliness is very satisfactory. Management pulling off for the gym to be open during lockdown was pretty remarkable. Pandemic times have been tough for everyone, especially for businesses. Everyone should try to be more understanding (when commenting for example).

  • 5/5 Meghann N. 2 years ago on Google
    I love this place. The nicest staff and management at any gym I've trained at in Ottawa! They actually take the time to greet you and say hello and get to know your name rather than treat you like another barcode that scanned in. If you want a gym that actually feels welcoming and friendly, Anytime Beechwood is your new spot!

  • 5/5 Djiboutian P. 2 years ago on Google
    I was helped by Sam who signed up my friend who was having issues with his membership at another undisclosed anytime gym and he was so helpful and welcoming to the gym and it was honestly an amazing experience. I've been going to this location now for 3 years and I would recommend anyone to come to this gym because the management here is top tier.

  • 5/5 Trystan S. 2 years ago on Google
    Clean gym during covid, super clean and well maintained!

  • 5/5 Audrey I. 2 years ago on Google
    I love it here. I go there 5 times a week or so. It’s small but it’s nice. I find everything I need for my workouts and morning or late night hours are the best because its not as packed. I don’t like full gyms, so my best times to workout is between 6-9am. The best thing about it is they also have a parking in the back.

  • 5/5 Nour D. 2 years ago on Google
    Great staff, good location, lots of machines to use. I go very early in the morning so it’s pretty quiet and no waiting time for said machines. I haven’t tried their personal training services but I can tell they are very attentive and encouraging to those who do. Would recommend this branch of Anytime Fitness.

    This gym is perfect! its in a great location, has parking, all weight essentials for muscle development are there. Slaven the Gym Manager is the best gym manager I have ever met he makes sure the gym is well taken care of. Kelly is such a great employee she brings life to the gym. If you anyone is looking for a gym they can call home; this is the place.

😐 Nice big location lots of parking. Prices are high and it is always busy. The place gets super crowded and you need to wait for a machine. A bit more cleaning would be great. The place gets cleaned once only and cleaning machines is not enforced.

😠 This location does not maintain its equipment, and will not fix it until it becomes a safety issue. Once it’s up for repair, they take over a couple months to get fixed.
