I used to go to this gym a long time ago. Today I went and forgot my locker, there was no one in the front desk when I arrived so I couldn’t buy a locker. Which meant I had to carry my bag around with me during my workout. At some point, the woman that should be in the front desk decided to approach me to ask that I leave my bag "far from myself", because "a lot of things went missing during the past weeks", clearly insinuating that I had something to do with that. For a gym that say that it doesn’t allow verbal aggression that was surprising! She was disrespectful and rude. I highly advise everyone who goes to that gym to avoid contact with the receptionist in the morning. Other girls also complained about her in the reviews if you take time to read it but apparently no one wants to solve this issue.

Today I made a reservation and arrived 5 minutes after the beginning of the slot. The lady working there refused me the access to the gym even tho the gym was almost empty. I agree with the rules but I except a little bit of flexibility from the gym toward their clients especially when there is 0 risk involved. She was simply rude, arrogant and didn't want to help me. If I was working in a gym I would just try to make my client happy and be flexible when it is possible.

The gym itself is really nice. Big enough even at peak hours. The vibe is great. Only problem is that they are not 24/7 and in the weekend they close too early.

there is a male personal trainer walking around most 0f the days. So you couldn't find a female trainer for a female only gym? Pathetic OK today I saw yet another man walking out of female toilet, so much for ladies gym

I have tried several Basic Fits and this is by far the best one! - very clean equipment - big room for stretching and abs - not too crowded, even during peak hours - group classes (haven't tried them)

Been going here on office days, love it. It's bright and clean and they have plenty of cardio machines, but the upper/lower/core areas do only have one of each machine so you might have to wait. Not an issue for me because then I can just do another part of my routine. They also have space if you want to do more of a mat-based routine upstairs. However as the others have said, there are sometimes still male personal trainers, so it's not 100% men-free.

Women only is really nice. Only comment I have is that the personal trainer is a male. A bit controversial if it's supposed to be woman only.

Good, clean, sometimes lack of lockers, but overall for the price it is good enough. Never taken a shower there though, but they have 3 private changing rooms which is always nice and appreciated!

Very nice building, super clean, they have a lot and everything inside is just super pretty and pink :).

Great gym for the price point, clean, well equipped, and friendly staff. Love the ladies only aspect, I feel very comfortable there!

It seems like a great small gym but with everything you need, and as a trans woman ⚧️ I appreciate that safe spaces are made.

Racial discrimination remains a barrier to the organization Basic-Fit Ladies (Overtoom). Despite the good equipaments, the service contribute to exclusions and restrictions based on race, colour, descent, national or ethnic origin continuing to cause conflict and embarrassment to black or non-white people at the place. Basic-Fit Ladies (Overtoom) gym must works to take action against the injustice of racial discrimination, and the dangers it represents.

This is my favorite Basic Fit! People behind the counter are super helpful and it is nice & clean. The only downside is that it closes at 4pm on weekends...why?

Small but still a good gym. It could stay open longer on weekends - and a water tap on the ground floor would be nice either. Other than that, the group classes' instructors are nice and the staff is friendly.

This is a really good gym for the price you pay per month. I’ve been going for a month now, 3 times a week, and have only seen it clean. It gets busy, but which gym doesn’t? It’s ladies only, the only men I see are either cleaners or trainers, and they’re very aware that they’re not there to watch, but to work. All in all, a really good gym for your buck. Only downside are opening hours on Saturday and Sunday 😣

Nice Ladies Only gym with enough equipment tailored to women. The unisex Basic Fit gyms are definitely tailored more towards men and me being a petite lady, I often get frustrated by the too big equipment. But in this gym the equipment isn't too big, it is also kept more tidy than the unisex gyms and it always smells nice. Plus the equipment is a nice pink colour :) It gets really busy after work hours but that is to be expected.

Had not been for a couple of years and the renovation is great, much more spacious and clean looking, although the reception area is not very 'gezellig' and a little cold. The changing rooms are much better looking, instead of that old brown wood from before. Enjoy working with Head Trainer Roberto who keeps you motivated and focussed.

Too bad it is small and does not have as many amenities as the other basic fit clubs. The cleanliness here is passable.

Okay Gym, very clean and nice atmosphere, too bad they close early on weekends. Would appreciate a bit more strength training equipment such as an extra power rack, since those are often occupied for a long time, or a deadlift platform.

Nice and spacious gym! I like that it is a small Basic Fit team, so you always see the same faces at work. The team keeps the gym very clean and organized. If you have a lesson from Layla, it will be energetic and you'll go home satisfied for sure!

I do find it a little frustrating that you can't contact the reception when the roster for classes is not working online.

Been going to this gym since 2015. The remodel has reduced the working out space a bit but I can not workout anywhere else cuz the head personal trainer ( Roberto Sporkslede ) is soo good at his job. I am training with him 8 yrs now & find his training is excellent!

Some men trainers walking around, but doesn’t (really) disturb the spirit of the gym.

Finding a good gym was requirement #1 when apartment searching and I am thrilled to have found such a nice, affordable gym near Vondelpark. Tons of cardio machines, a good number of guided and free weights, live classes (should you choose to pay a mere €8 extra per month) as well as virtual spin and exercises classes (free with basic membership), clean facilities, spacious locker rooms, and SO inexpensive. Month-to-month and yearly rates were both much more reasonable than many of the other gyms in the area, plus they offer day passes for €10/day if you're just visiting. Only downside is that my partner (male) can't also be a member! I thought a female-only gym would be weird but it's kind of awesome to see so many ladies moving metal and kicking butt. Also, with respect to other reviews, I've never ever smelled weed while working out so no need to worry about that! Unless that's what you're looking for :)

The gym is great but is a little bit small. I do go early in the morning as I know during the evenings and the weekend in pretty packed. For free body exercises there are 2 areas on the first and the second floor, not really wide so you can use the empty room if it’s free. Only ladies are allowed here so you can be as ugly as you want because nobody will care :D

I'm tired to listen stories about my friends who go there and how the staff, specific the manager, insinuates that they are stealing things

Clean, well-maintained ladies only gym. It has all of the standard cardio and weight training equipment you'll need, and there are then two separate rooms - one for stretching and another for classes.

The gym has an extremely strong light on the first floor, this is horrible for those who train at night.

Super nice gym! You can exercise quietly and at ease and all fitness equipment is kept clean.

Lovely gym! well kept

It was my first time at this fitness studio. The girl at the front desk was very helpful. She showed me around and answered my questions. There are a lot of devices for cardio, maybe too many.. instead i would have preferred to have the traditional chest press and smith machine. But overall the gym is fine! I expected worse because of all the comments i read online. But i liked it and the girls training were considerate as well.

Great gym, one of the rules is that you MUST use a towel. Not all the ladies are doing it. So clean everything before using many of the equipment. Staff is great and they all greet you nicely when you enter.

Girls only gym really offers a great place to work out. Very convenient location as well. It is on the smaller side but they do have all the equipment you would need. It doesn't ever seem too crowded either.

The company is a scam for internationals. Do not sign up. they don't tell you until after you pay that the app is only accessible for dutch people. They stole €60 from me and there is no customer service to reply to my issue.

Very cheap for what they give you and the reception is so good and friendly and always clean.

It’s a nice gym but closing at 4 in weekends, not great.

Awesome team 🙂

This Ladies only has been my go-to for the past 4years. And I've always been aware of the male personnel. Which is very annoying to me, yet doable. However, today a man walked into the changing rooms AND showers. Mind you, I've never even experienced this in a gym that allows male members. I am absolutely SHOCKED. Considering there was female staff present, too busy talking outside, to do whatever that man was doing in the showers.

I’ve been going to this gym for 4 days in a row now. Just bought a membership for a year. It’s not big and it’s often busy. they have machines but you often have to wait. If you want to focus seriously on something I don’t think that this is the place. They should add some more devices. The people are nice but I did see men in the gym?
