    I’ve been going to this gym since September, and, apart from it being a bit crowded sometimes, the facility was always clean and overall functional for training. Today, however, I had a very unpleasant interaction with one of the staff members, around 3/3.30 pm. The gym was nearly empty, I was on a machine, nobody was waiting to use it. I was taking my time to relax in between sets, and the staff member working at the front desk came up to me and told me to “wake up”, (literally: “wake up!”) in a not-so-friendly way. A bit surprised by this, I went up to them once I finished on the machine and told them that, as a non-Dutch person (I blamed it on my own culture and interpretation) I did not perceive the comment to be motivational at all, but rather rude. The staff member asked me where I was from, and to my answer, proceeded to say “come on”, demeaning my perception of their comment. I left and went on with my training. Some seconds later I saw someone acquainted with this person (they were speaking earlier) walk into the front desk, speak with them, and go away laughing and saying “women”. Might have been a coincidence, but it all felt very uncomfortable. I will definitely not go back to this location.

    Very nice gym but closing at 17:00 on Saturday and Sunday… it’s a bit too early especially considering that at 15:30-16:00 the gym gets really packed. Consider extending your weekend hours a bit?

    This is a small gym at the center of Amsterdam and they have a lot of machines and also weights. You can do squats and lunges here. The staff are friendly and the maintenance is great. I would recommend this place

    Very good location and easy access, however most of the « popular machines » are often out of order for example the treadmills have been for over a week. It is very student friendly nonetheless with a casual environment. The staff is not particularly involved in the users workouts and the weightlifting area can quickly get crowded. Overall I would still recommend it because you do get your moneys value with their flexible timetable.

    Going there for years. I love the chill atmosphere. Physio is top! Relative clean. Neighborhood vibe which I love. I don't like so much the switch to the machines that happened recently. The "new" leg press is by far inferior to the one before. The inclined bench for sit ups and torso rotation machine for abs are gone. Prices will increase from Nov 1st but quality decreased. That doesn't make me very happy. :/

    This gym is small but complete. You have machines to train every single muscle. One of the main advantage is thay in weekdays it closes at eleven. Moreover, the staff is friendly and professional.

    Bad experience unfortunately. Lost the code of my locker so asked them to help me open it. Got a huge attitude from the worker and told me to come back at 11 pm when they close. Zero service and bad communication.

    Basic, but fine gym. Friendly staff. Can get very crowded quickly. Some of the equipment too closely packed like the bikes. Apart from that the usual equipment hogging milennials more concerned with their phones than getting their exercises done. Normally not an issue, but in such a small gym it unnecessarily delays your own gym visit.

    The staff is friendly and helpful. However, there is not a classic lat pulldown machine and a machine for seated cable rows. Additional cable machine should be added.

    On some days it's like a second home, indeed very cosy. The courses have very high quality just as the sports equipment. There is almost for every muscle one unit available. I especially like the screen simulations of American national parks at the cardio units.:) Also, the staff members are highly motivating and helpful. Changing rooms and showers are always clean based on my experience. I wish I could find the same standard in this price category in Germany...

    Chill atmosphere, the courts downstairs are a big plus. On the smaller side, but it’s fine. Newer equipment would be appreciated. Nonetheless, you can work in efficiently, your way.

    This unfortunately is the worst USC out of the four locations in Amsterdam. Consider choosing a different USC gym! 1. Staff will simply kick you out if it‘s too full 2. Way too packed, therefore too small for too many people 3. No good machines whatsoever Overall: disappointed! Choose USC AMC or Universum.

    Came in for a single training. Easy check in with the trainer that was there today on the 26th/12 around 11am. Very professional. The gym is well equipped, clean open on boxing day! A must

    This gym is well kept with friendly staff and delivers great value. The only things holding this gym back from 5 star greatness is the lack of a cable row and a proper lat pull down (the lat pulldown machine is wonky with an odd grip).

    Love this gym: very friendly and approachable staff, wide range of group classes and a well equipped gym. Unfortunately sometimes there are technical problems with the finger scanner, but apart from that I really enjoy going there. For a student the prices are the best in Amsterdam as far as I know.

    Pretty nice gym with sufficient calisthenics area and private changing rooms, even on busy evenings there's still space to workout. The equipment is abundant, but not in the best shape, especially the leg abductors machine, the max weight (136 iirc) feels like nothing, whereas at another gym I couldn't do more than ~50. For the price and location though it's the best gym to go to after work/uni.

    Too expensive with minimal service. They are more interested in generating money and adhering to their system than interested in supporting the customers.

    (Translated by Google) Nice gym where everything is what you need, equipment is not state of the art but does what it should do. Changing rooms could be cleaner, but that is more due to the people who walk there, mainly students (shaving etc.) (Original) Fijne sportschool waar alles is wat je nodig hebt, apparatuur is niet state of the art maar doet wat 't moet doen. Kleedkamers zouden schoner kunnen, maar dat ligt denk meer aan de mensen die er lopen, hoofdzakelijk studenten namelijk(scheren etc.)

    (Translated by Google) Very affordable gym, especially for students! I mainly use the pilates group lesson. I like that very much. Laura is a good teacher. The gym also looks good, with a variety of people. Not the "gasping" men's atmosphere (;. Gym might be a bit on the small side, but then you can just go to the other usc in Universum location. It is not a luxury gym, just basic. Recommended! (Original) Zeer betaalbare sportschool, zeker voor studenten! Ik maak vooral gebruik van de pilates groepsles. Die vind ik heel fijn. Laura is een goede docente. De gym ziet er ook goed uit, variatie aan type mensen. Niet de ‘hijgende’ mannen sfeer (;.

  • 2/5 Mickey van der S. 6 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Actually just too small. There are too few weights, so you often have to wait a while for someone else to finish. There are simply too many people exercising; a maximum of 4 people can fit in the dressing room. (Original) Eigenlijk gewoon te klein. Er zijn te weinig gewichten dus sta je vaak een tijdje te wachten tot een ander klaar is. Er sporten simpelweg te veel mensen; in de kleedkamer past hoogstens 4 man.

    I always go to USC both for physiotherapy and group classes and I always find it clean, and the people are always available. In particular, my physiotherapist, Jakob Berger, was of great help for my issue. I really suggest him if you’re planning of scheduling an appointment!!

😠 Unfortunate to see my favourite gym constantly in disrepair. Often taking weeks to months before simple issues are fixed. Cleanliness is also not as it used to be - WCs become disgusting later in the day. Calling customer support wasn’t helpful so I thought I’d post my complaints here.
