    Dear Customer Service I would notify that a man arrived on Moon!!! Today one week of cold shower...😳😁 No indication No information to customer at entrance!!! If you want I will provide you a telephone number of plumber.... Embarrassing situation....with three shower operative! Update on 7 Sept.... nothing changed (shower cold). Embarrassing also the posture by person at entrance/Auriellenne that suggest to go in some other BASIC FIT ( RECCOMANDATION use a clear advice at entrance reported shower issue). No worries we can wait😳

    The gym has a prison-like rotating gate due to 24h openings during the week. Too bad none of the Basic Fits are open after 16.00 in the weekends. The machines are in good shape and they are many - perhaps too many for the space. There is only one power rack, only one bench press and no pull-up bar - doing basic exercises in rush hours in not working. Instead there is a machine for every little muscle group. The locker room has lockers too narrow for any bag, you only get hot water in the shower and there is nowhere to land your shower gel while in there. Replace a few specialty machines with basic stuff (as in the name!) and give a little practical attention to details -> get four stars from me. It is cheap though.

    Absolutely horrible! We got a monthly subscription in February, in march Corona stroke and we couldn't go. We had a Couple subscription of 20euro/month. In march, we called them and tried to cancel, they said that there will be no fee during these months. We are now in June and we have paid more than 200euros. When you go to their website, you can choose 3 languages NL, FR, EN. But the customer service page is only in NL. they tell you the following "contact the helpdesk for help in English." --- but when you click on the helpdesk, it takes you to a log in page in NL. when you manage to find the number and you call, the first thing you hear is a welcome message in english, but then, you never have any english option afterwards. And even if you manage to get in contact, they send you online, on your own account to make a complaint. I think they deserve a bigger/ class action complaint with EU institutions.

    The shower has only cold water for the last 2 weeks. Some machines were broken for 6 months -in a small gym like this a few machines out of use has a big impact..

    Poor service, shabby equipment. Dim lighting. Rude uncivilised middle aged man at reception who has no idea how to use any equipment. Clearly doesn't enjoy being at work so why not put him out of his misery. Lockers available but you have to pay for a padlock yourself! One would think being in Schuman providing security to your clients would be a priority, not here. Young male staff was very helpful and clearly should be the manager here. Place needs livening up. For €20/month service is v. poor. If it wasn't for location, I would be going elsewhere.

    I have not had access to my account for three months (they have the wrong email and are not responding to me via the website's customer service). On Friday 5 June evening I went to them personally at Schuman and they said they couldn't help me because the internet was broken. The internet has been broken for several months and management knows. Will have to change gyms, too bad.

    It's soooooo small and not super well equipped. Save some headache and go to another 24/7 one. This one is always packed like a sardine can.

    (Translated by Google) I was in Brussels for the weekend and this studio was near my hotel and wanted to train there with a day pass. At first I was astonished that there are no receptionists and that you can only get into the studio with a membership card through a high turnstile. However, there was a PC in the entrance area, where you can buy a membership or a day pass and get a QR code to get through the turnstile. Language on the PC was either French or Dutch. With a little Google translate I was in the studio after 10 minutes. Admission without staff was quite interesting. Immediately after entering, I noticed that no square centimeter was not completed. One device next to the other, it took me a short time to get there first. Clothes lockers in the middle of the training area made me puzzled, and then I found the changing rooms, which however only opened until 3 p.m.! I was there on Saturday around 6pm. Luckily I had my sports gear underneath and just undressed in the last corner of the aisle and left my bag on a locker in the middle of the training area where I could see it. I didn't want to change on the toilet because it was tiny and disgustingly dirty. There is only one squat rack and one flat bench. The dumbbells look very worn and disgusting, otherwise the devices were fine, except that everything in the room was crisscrossed. There is no staff, so almost everyone trains here without a towel, although there are signs everywhere. After a while I found it kind of funny how about 4 people unconsciously "alternated" on one machine, because the one got up after the finished sentence and the next one sat on the "free device" without a towel. I didn't think the studio was very crowded at the time, so it was fine for me as a visitor because I don't have to rely on staff and I was able to complete my training. Then I changed clothes somewhere in the back, like many others. It was an interesting visit and a new experience with such a concept. I would not come back anyway and membership would also not be an option. (Original) Ich bin übers Wochenende in Brüssel gewesen und dieses Studio war in der Nähe meines Hotels und wollte dort mit einem Tagespass trainieren. Anfangs war ich etwas verblüfft, das es kein Empfangspersonal gibt und man nur mit einer Mitgliedskarte durch ein hohes Drehkreuz in das Studio kommt. Es gab im Eingangsbereich jedoch einen PC, andem man sich direkt eine Mitgliedschaft oder einen Tagespass kaufen kann und einen QR-Code erhält um durch das Drehkreuz zu kommen. Sprache am PC war entweder Französisch oder Niederländisch. Mit ein bisschen Google translate war ich nach 10 Minuten im Studio. Der Einlass ohne Personal war durchaus interessant. Direkt nach dem betreten bemerkte ich das kein Quadratzentimeter nicht vollgestellt ist. Ein Gerät neben dem anderen, da brauchte ich eine kurze Zeit um dort erstmal klarzukommen. Kleiderspinde mitten auf der Trainingsfläche machten mich stutzig, daraufhin fand ich die Umkleiden, die jedoch nur bis 15 Uhr geöffnet haben! Ich war am Samstag gegen 18 Uhr dort. Zum Glück hatte ich meine Sportsachen drunter und habe mich in der letzten Ecke am Gang einfach ausgezogen und meine Tasche auf einen Spind mitten im Trainingsbereich gelassen wo ich sie im Blick hatte. Auf dem WC wollte ich mich nicht umziehen, da es winzig war und ekelhaft dreckig. Es gibt nur ein Squatrack sowie eine Flachbank. Die Kurzhanteln sehen sehr abgebraucht und ekelig aus, ansonsten waren die Geräte in Ordnung, außer das alles in dem Raum Kreuz und quer stand. Es gibt kein Personal, daher trainiert hier fast jeder ohne Handtuch, obwohl überall Schilder hängen. Nach einer Zeit fand ich es irgendwie witzig, wie sich unbewusst ca. 4 Personen an einer Maschine "abwechselten", weil derjenige nach dem fertigen Satz aufstand und ein nächster sich auf das "freie Gerät" ohne Handtuch setzte. Das Studio war glaube ich zu der Zeit nicht sonderlich voll, daher war es für mich als Besucher in Ordnung, da ich nicht auf Personal angewiesen bin und mein Training durchziehen konnte. Umgezogen habe ich mich dann wieder irgendwo hinten in einer Ecke, wie manch anderer auch. War ein interessanter Besuch und eine neue Erfahrung mit so einem Konzept. Wiederkommen würde ich trotzdem nicht und eine Mitgliedschaft würde ebenfalls nicht infrage kommen.

    The worst gym I have ever seen. I can not recommend it! I am really disappointed. It’s dirty everywhere and too small. Smell not good and the conditioner works not good . Stuffy. Overcrowded. Very old equipment. Shower doesn’t have door to lock. Almost 30% of trainers are out of order. Before I exercised in Rixensart(basic Fit has a great gym there). Why one gym is disgusting and another is perfect?

    This gym has seen its best days. Multiple machines are broken, there’s a lot of wear and tear everywhere (ripped benches etc). Wouldn’t recommend

    (Translated by Google) Cause covid, shorter hours but the beauty is that there are few people, therefore almost always free tools, as well as being clean (Original) Causa covid, orari ridotti ma il bello è che c'è poca gente, quindi attrezzi quasi sempre liberi, oltre ad essere puliti

    The gym is not well maintained - many machines are broken or not in use. There is also not enough stations for benches and only one cable machine. Needs investement and improvement! Surprising as such a central and representative location!

    Avoid Basic Fit. Staff is very rude and unprofessional and they mislead you with information on membership. This particular Basic Fit is also very small and gets crowded.

    Nice staff, good place to work out...that is to say when people dont stay at the machines and play on their phones. The changing room have a stale musk about them, but for the prices they charge...what would you expect

    Nice, tidy and clean place but I got my bike stolen outside there and the gym had no camera to help me find the theft. To install a camera outside the gym would be a great service for the clients

  • 4/5 Dan F. 3 months ago on Google • 91 reviews New
    I would have given 5 stars, but the strength equipment is a little crowded, and the changing room is a little too small.

  • 4/5 Hursh G. 3 months ago on Google • 82 reviews New
    Nice place but usually over crowded. They got good equipment for cardio. For weight training space should be bit more.

  • 4/5 yurley g. 2 years ago on Google
    I like it but it is too small or just need better organization for the machines.

  • 3/5 Csaba B. 4 years ago on Google
    It is great that it is open 24/7. It needs some refreshing, a lot of the weights would need to be changed and the machines are quite cluttered. All that said, I spend a lot of mornings here! :)

  • 1/5 Lawrie C. 2 years ago on Google
    Terrible gym. Half the weights machines are disabled for no discernable reason. Covid rules are both inadequate and contradictory

    Why on earth, of all the basic fit gyms in the neighborhood, this ridiculously underequipped and small gym is the one that is open 24/7? Can't you keep the Jourdan one 24/7? I stopped coming here and now have to go all the way to vub

  • 1/5 don ciccio a. 4 years ago on Google
    Only one single toilet for the whole gym. Changing rooms closed most of the days on holidays and weekends. Broken machines never fixed. Travelled and seen a lot, but this is by far the worst gym ever

  • 2/5 Brian Adam P. 4 years ago on Google
    24/7, but very cramped and not all machines are 100% functional. The Yanga water dispenser (sometimes) does not work with the new all-blacked-out barcode on the membership cards.

  • 2/5 Koen P. 4 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Like any other basic fit, with the difference that apart from the poor Dutch that hangs up, people also speak English. They do have to maintain their cross trainers, they have so much play / wear that they become almost dangerous at high power. (Original) Zoals elke andere basic fit, met dat verschil dat buiten het gebrekkig Nederlands dat ophangt, men ook Engels spreekt. Ze moeten wel hun crosstrainers eens onderhouden, deze hebben zoveel speling/slijtage dat ze bijna gevaarlijk worden op hoge vermogens.

    Incorrect name and working time (24/7). I came at 21:30 started my workout and heard an announcement that they are closing in 30 minutes! So they are not only closing at 22:30 like all other Basic-Fit Clubs but also kicking you out already at 22h!

    Urgent 💥💥 Dear (unknown person) I hope this message reaches you promptly. On December 28, 2023, between 13:10 and 14:40, my jacket was inadvertently taken at Shuman Basic Fit. If you find it suitable, please keep the jacket, but I urgently need you to return the key, headphone case, and the important papers with my address on them. You are aware of the address, kindly place these items in the letterbox. Your cooperation is highly appreciated, and I will be very thankful for your prompt response. thank you.

👍 Convenient gym open 24 hours during the week. Cons: no squat rack with safety bars (which is strange considering this is the only basic fit in which I've seen people doing free weight squats, and all the other locations do have the safety bars)
