    No costumer care. It's bad enough that this gym has one 1 set of weights for each weight, but the people never put them back in their places, so half your workout goes up and down the place searching for the weights you need. People stink (It should be forbidden to walk into a sports place smelling that foul), half of the equipment is broken or missing things, the vending machines are broken. One night the electricity went completely out and all cardio machines turned off. Overall a very very bad experience in this location. Do Not recommend !!

    The gym is smelly with no venting of air. The payment practices of Basic Fit are very similar to making a bank credit, they surcharge for delayed payments and cancellation is very difficult. They also have the ability to direct debit your bank account in order to recover pending funds. Personal information entered into their system is also impossible to remove without contacting customer support.

    Very very basic gym, not for more experienced lifters. Trap bar missing. Elevated platform step missing. The only barbell pad in bad condition. Hip thrust machine has a tilted pad, which can cause imbalances if you exercise on it long run. Cardio area is unnecessarily too large. Very few benches. It is nearly impossible to grab any equipment from the weight section at rush hours, because again, it is not that big considering the total area of the gym. Hip extension bench has been broken for a week now. Abduction machine goes up to 70kg only. One cable machine doesn’t have a proper handle, so you can’t change the height of the pin. There could be more cable attachments. One toilet of the two in women's toilet could not even be locked. Poor technical maintenance. The receptionist was the only positive about the place. The gate entrance was not working. Locker rooms get closed at night, they almost locked my things inside just because I didn't notice the announcement on the door (maybe because it was in Dutch/French only) I don't understand how this can be a popular gym chain in Brussels. I only go there, because it’s close to my apartment.

    This gym is quite large compared to nearby basic fit gyms. The best part of this branch is massage chair. I usually go to this branch for this massage chair only. You will feel very relaxed after the massage. If you have some time and really need to relax, go for this place.

    Unfriendly and not very helpful. I just wanted to have a look around before I become a member but it seems that this is not possible.

    Medium sized gym with a nice variety of free weights and machines. Could use a bit more barbells and plates, but overall a nice gym. One day pass is easily purchased through the kiosk at the front

    The employees are good, smiling people. The gym gets very crowded sometimes. The main problem is that the treadmills have not been working for about 3 months. I go to another gym for the treadmill. This issue needs to be resolved.

    It is a large, ground floor gym. For such a size of gym there should be more bench presses and free weights.

    A basic gym for basic workouts The weight section is small and limited for any more experienced lifters. Dumbbells go to 40kg I don't think there are any 20kg plates and some of the cable machines were broken. The place seemed clean and was actively being cleaned during my visit. Great for the average gym goer or anyone with less confidence in working out.

    Decent, not great not bad. Not a lot, but basic stuff where you can most of what you need done.

  • 1/5 Sam R. 1 year ago on Google • 13 reviews
    Lacking basic equipment and the one they have is really overused. Overcrowded - really not a pleasant atmosphere - people shouting, some behaving like animals. I don’t get it how Brussels has only Basic fit for €20 and then Aspria for €180 and there is pretty much nothing in between. There is definitely a market for people who would prefer to go to a more decent gym without paying a fortune.

    (Translated by Google) Dirty, even disgusting, the locker rooms are never clean, whether at opening or closing. Most paper dispensers are constantly empty, which leaves much to be desired in terms of hygiene. There is never anyone at the reception, the staff prefers to hide in the room behind to chat. Personally I no longer go there and yet it is the closest to my home. Compared to other Basic Fit, this one is abandoned !!! Customers respect nothing, whether in terms of hygiene, politeness or courtesy. Normal given the lack of staff. (Original) Sale, même dégueulasse, les vestiaires ne sont jamais propres, que ce soit à l’ouverture ou à la fermeture. La plupart des distributeurs de papier sont constamment vides, ce qui laisse à désirer niveau hygiène. Il n’y a jamais personne à l’accueil, le personnel préférant se cacher dans le local derrière pour discuter. Personnellement je n’y vais plus et c’est pourtant le plus proche de chez moi. Comparé à d’autres Basic Fit, celui-ci est laissé à l’abandon!!! Les clients ne respectent rien, que ce soit en matière d’hygiène, de politesse ou de courtoisie. Normal vu l’absence de personnel.

    Poorly equipped and dirty. If you're a woman and want to work out in the weight room, men will constantly bother you and stare.

    Has anyone be able to unsubscribe? I am really fed up. I am paying for one year for no reason during covid, and now that I can finally unsubscribe through my account, the webpage gives error and says "contact support", the support that for one year has never replied to a single mail. HELP ME to get out of this!

  • 1/5 Dries De B. 3 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Worst BF I've been to. Very few muscle building machines, no squat racks, or calf machines. And way too many cardio machines. Also very small gym. (Original) Slechtste BF waar ik al geweest ben. Heel weinig toestellen voor spier opbouw, geen squat racks, of toestellen voor kuiten. En veel te veel cardio toestellen. Alsook heel kleine gym.

    (Translated by Google) Big but very full Disadvantage: people take off their masks indoors (Original) Grand mais très rempli Désavantage:les gens retirent leur masques à l’intérieur

  • 5/5 Fredo 2 years ago on Google
    Don't listen to the bad comments. This place is very OK. It's not the best basic fit but if you come just to work out and go, It is the place to be. The only regret I have is that there are not enough inclined seats and the cardio area is to broad against the needs (It's always empty).
