I’m honestly so tired of coming in for a workout and seeing this gym trashed. Here *right now* on a Monday morning and there has clearly not been anyone here all weekend. The floor is trashed, old spray bottles and sweat towels everywhere. Weight plates and various equipment all over the place. The water fountain has not been cleaned in months and that’s not even getting into the women’s bathroom. I have brought things up to desk workers when there actually is someone here but Nothing has been done. Come on WO ANYTIME Marietta South, this locations needs to do better, it’s honestly GROSS. ************** Revising on 11/7/23… since this is the only place to get ahold of anyone at this gym, i am revising my review, but not in a good way. I think my stars are in the negatives now. Here on a Tuesday morning and once again there clearly has not been any staff here since last week. All paper towels except the bathrooms are empty. No more sweat/cleaning cloths available. Garbage cans all overflowing. And to top it off the door lock was not on when I was here at 12 noon for a lunch workout yesterday. A gym user ((not employee of course)) told me that the door is never locked during week day work hours. THIS IS A PROBLEM. then I came in this morning at 6:45 and it was also not locked. No card needed to get in. PLEASE staff your desk at appropriate hours and get the door working correctly!

Friendly staff, great location and good equipment selection, but the gym is consistently dirty - particularly the bathroom/locker rooms and the smell is awful. Seems they easily go months without cleaning the bathroom/locker rooms. Urinal is disgusting, lightbulbs have been out for weeks, musty mats haphazardly stacked in the corner, missing doors off of lockers, trim is falling apart..

STAY AWAY!! Literally the worst gym experience. This gym was wonderful when it was village fitness. After it was bought out by Workout Anytime, the quality went down significantly!! It’s disgusting!! They never clean and there’s rarely someone working front desk. It seems like the staff has a high turnover rate as the front desk person is around for maybe 2 weeks then is gone. The bathrooms are atrocious! 🤮 I told the owner that the bathrooms were dirty and her response was “well what exactly needs to the cleaned?” That tells me that you don’t even go in to check the bathrooms. Unacceptable. Especially in these covid times The paper towels are usually out of stock and the cloth towels get washed once a week if that. There is constantly equipment all over the place. They don’t even play music so if I forget to bring headphones, it’s dead quiet! All you hear is hard breathing. Ladies - do not join this gym!!!

Gym was previously village fitness and they were bought out by workout anytime. There was a billing issue that they would not resolve, i called their billing agency, sent emails because I was being billed twice, eventually cancelled my membership only to get collections calls because they had sent my acct to collections after canceling my membership. Avoid this place!!!

Hello. My name is Andre, master trainer for FitSmart Personal Training. I was able to lease space at this facility for 2 years, to provide my personal training services in this location. In November 2021, this location was purchased by Virginia and Todd, Owners of Workout Anytime. They allowed me to continue my business through the end of the year, December 2021. I was able to continue my services for 60 days during the transition. Virginia and Todd was well aware of my arrangements with the previous owners. I paid a monthly rent that covered my cost as well as all my clients payments for using the gym. The owners, Virginia and Todd stated that they will cancel and remove my clients from their system on December 31 2021. It was a clear understanding that Virginia will remove all 53 of my clients. She had a list of all my clients, she actually took my folder with my client names/list in it. After several conversations, this was supposed to been resolved months ago. It’s is now 6 months later, and Virginia and Todd has decided to send all my clients letters, or call all my clients, stating that they need to pay $176 to have their names removed from the system. Are they serious right now? My clients do not have any agreements with Workout Anytime. As owners, that’s totally unacceptable and so be little of you to do such a thing. I will reach out to your corporate office. I will also reach out to other Workout Anytime owners to have this issue resolved. You are only making yourself and that gym look BAD!

The Workout Anywhere Roswell Road location shut down and now will not let my mom out of her contract citing they “moved.” The location they claim to have moved to (Powers Ferry) is not new. Her location closed. She chose her location because it was less than a mile from her home. In fact, when she signed up, they gave her the option to sign up to use the Roswell Road location only or to also use their other locations. She specifically chose to use just the Roswell Rd location. Do the right thing, operate with integrity, and let her out of her contract.

UPDATE September 2023: After some improvement last month, it's gotten worse again. 80% as bad as I describe below. The worst-smelling bathrooms I've experienced in my life - not just in gyms, but anywhere. Hot, stale urine, plus a strong undercurrent of BO. It's like they had a dozen horses relieve themselves on the floor, then let it marinate for months. NYC subway stations in July are pleasant compared to this. It's been this way since I've been a member. They never clean it.

Scammers. Signed up for personal training and it was the worst experience ever. Every time I got a new trainer (8 in one year) they quit because “owner is evil”. After my one year was over, I tried to cancel and they continued to charge me even after I sent certified letter. It is impossible to cancel your membership here. Owner will also ignore you when trying to cancel.

I think this is a new-ish location. Why did you move to this spot? Gym has what a typical gym would have. It is pretty filthy and musty smelling.. mens locker room is extremely outdated and more things and need be are unorganized. I would find another gym while this one gets it’s stuff together. Staff seems friendly though.

I was on vacation to Atlanta so I hit up a few local gyms. I was going to LA Fitness which was so crowded... I regret ever going there and for 15 a day it was a rip off! I found this little gem of a gym which totally under estimated bc of the size but it has everything a full gym has in terms of equipment and weight just compact. It’s open 24 hours and a guest pass will run you35 for the week, they don’t do daily rates which was fine... anything is better than LA Fitness. Staff hours are 8 to 8 to sign up if you wanna work out but it’s open 24 hours !!! Will come back if ever in the area.

If I could give this a 0 star, I would. This establishment is awful. Please save yourself a headache and go to LA Fitness across the street. The owner, Virginia Smith does not care about her gym or staff. This place is always dirty and things are always falling apart. New employees are not properly trained. They are told to do whatever they need to do to sign a new member up. I ended up spending a total of $130 on a membership that shouldn’t have cost me a thing because of my paid membership through my health insurance. This was all a result of a poorly trained employee signing me up incorrectly. Instead of the owner, Virginia Smith, owning up to a mistake made from someone on her staff, she was adamant on me making the payments because $130 was more important to her than standing by a customer supporting her business. Because of this, she’s now lost me as a member as well as 5 of my friends and family. I would never recommend this Poorly ran facility to anyone. Go somewhere else and save yourself the trouble!

First off, I can vouch for Andre Fitness. He is not a liar! This organization is (at least this particular gym). Ever since this gym was bought out, it has not been the same since. They don't return phone calls or emails. The whole staff is sketchy (except for the lady who works in the front, I don't know her name but she is always cleaning and helping people out). They will still charge you "after you have cancelled your contract. They just want your money . They even move equipment around for no good reason. All they literally do is walk around the gym and ask you if you want to sign up for an expensive personal training program. They only care about revenue. Watch them call me a "liar" too after this post.

This place is a great alternative to Crunch Fitness. However, I believe I WAY overpaid for a basic month-to-month membership - on 10/12/2022 I visited in person with a free 1-day trial pass and signed up for a membership, paying $80.99, then of course 45 days later I was charged the standard annual fee of $39.00. However as of 2/9/2023 on the website it says it is supposed to be $35.99 due today for a basic month-to-month. Long story short visit first in person and then sign up online. My response to the owner below: This is 100% the correct location (next to Rio in the same plaza as Microcenter). I have been going to this location for the past 3 months for my workouts.

Chastity Nichole Campbell , the trainer and instructor at this facility is the most helpful and knowledgeable staff person in a gym that anyone can ever hope for. When not assisting others , she is constantly cleaning, keeping this gym spotless, and safe for all patrons. In addition to assisting others with knowledge and use of the equipment, this instructor has been very helpful in providing me & others with healthy eating ideas. I highly recommend anyone who wants to join a gym to join Workout Anytime, Marietta South .

High turnover, no carpet, equipment disappears and is not replaced, trainer was rude. Owners does not spend the money to take care of this location. Often they don't answer the phone. No lockers in men's room... I asked them to cancel and they did not cancel my membership. Join the West Marietta location - not this one. Trainers are available limited hours and days.

Gets the job done, but don’t expect much.. like don’t expect the flat bench to be flat, paper towel dispensers to dispense paper towels, racks for disc weights, a full set of dumbbells, OR labels on weight stacks..

I got a super bad vibe from this place it started in the parking lot. When I walked in the lady was super friendly but the first thing I noticed was the place was really small. I informed her I had a day pass but she was helping others and instructed ne to wait so she could give me a tour which was super weird since you can see the entire gym from the entry. I honestly just wanted to workout and check the gym out myself I didn't care for a tour. Second thing I noticed was the treadmills are right there by the entrance. I'm super insecure about my butt and breast jiggling while I run and now every single person who comes in will see me and thats too distracting from my focus on working out. I didn't even bother with the free day pass I just left

Overall, this gym gets the job done. The equipment isn't the newest but there's enough of it and it's good enough. I will say at peak times you will have to wait on machines as there's only one real squat rack and a couple of benches that are both flat and incline, etc. The one discouraging thing about this gym is the cancellation process. It's done online but they make you pay for an extra month even if you've paid for your current period which sucks. Ex. My wife and I paid our dues from Nov.22 to Dec.22...today's date is Nov 29th. When I went to cancel it would only let me cancel if it paid for next months fee as well.... meaning Dec 22 - Jan 22. We've moved out of the area so there's no way we are going to make use of this additional time. Charging for another month when you've been with a gym 2+ years seems a little scammy/dirty. But, I guess that's why this portion of the process is done online. I'm sure others complained in person about this. Again, the gym is average for the area but be aware that you will pay extra to leave.

The staff was very nice and understanding. All they cared about was me being happy and working around my schedule. I really appreciate them and I go to the gym every week I love it!❤️

Signed up to work with a personal trainer at the location and they are constantly changing trainers so I decided to cancel my trainer membership. I turned in a letter like I was told to stating that I would like to cancel and I was just charged again. There's absolutely no communication and you can't talk to management because they are never there.

I renewed my membership for another 3 years. The facility is always clean and well maintained. Staff is supportive and very friendly. They make a point to learn your name and conversate with you. There is a personal trainer, Jo, at this location. Four weeks into our sessions and I have lost over 10 pounds. He is very professional, motivating, and even corrects the “You-Tube-Experts” with sound advice and knowledge. I highly recommend both gym and training sessions with Jo.

I love this gym! Joe is the best trainer you can get. He's super knowledgeable, he's so much fun to work with, and he's the biggest hype man ever. If you come to this gym and work out with him, I KNOW that you'll meet your goals!

I have really loved this gym! Very clean and socially distanced. Staff are always professional and nice. Joe is awesome!!

The gym is usually clean and the staff (when they are available) are friendly. The key cards do have issues from time to time where they will just stop working or not work at all initially when you sign up. Their customer problem resolution processes could be improved greatly... especially in the account / billing department. The Men's locker room reminds me of a truck stop in a sketchy part of town. Can definitely concur that they have a massive card sharing issue in the later hours of the evening. My last visit had a group of 6 people roll in on one card to not work out apparently but to monopolize the shower for an hour and head out. It was kinda unreal. Had one gentleman with a huge bag of rank clothes on his back ask if "members" could use the laundry facilities on site. The language barrier prevented the clear understanding that those were for the staff. All in all, if you want to work out it's a decent place, but for sure on lower end. The Motel 6 of gym's in Marietta. From time to time I've found some of the machines' bolting to the floor are loose which makes the machine feel incredibly unsafe. Careful on those lower back machines near the windows.

I saw few signs saying that you can enroll with $1 only, when I went there, they ask for something over $100, I cancelled my Planet for that, why would you tell people something not true ? they said they will call me and no one call,, I just called , no answer. too many red flags

I joined this gym as a member several years ago. Ms Donna signed me up and was so pleasant and helpful. I felt safe to workout during the pandemic because the facility was always clean and they always provided sanitizing wipes for all the members. The owners really went above and beyond to take care of the members during the pandemic. The members also went above and beyond to clean their equipment even more than they already were. The equipment is great. I love the free weight area the most. I have never had anything negative to say about this gym, the management, or the owners. It has been a complete pleasure for all the years I have been working out there. I am very excited about the move to the new location on Powers Ferry! It’s almost in my backyard now! Congratulations on the new location!!! Thanks for being amazing!!!

Sadly this appears to no longer be a Village Fitness location. Thanks for keeping the gym open as long as you could when COVID had almost everything else shut down!

I would not recommend this gym at all. Customer service is horrible; the staff is incompetent and management is non accommondative in resolving staff error. Like other reviews, I was misinformed about customer policies and had a bartered conversation with management; that resulted in a ravished bank account. I am currently in pursuit of legal council. Save yourself the headache, go to Planet Fitness.

The gym was starting to become run down. Once Joe became manager the gym has never looked better! Joe and his staff are extremely friendly, courteous and helpful.Joe is a great guy and he’s always there to answer a question and take care of any situation. The gym is clean, safe and once again is a great environment to train when you want! I can’t thank Joe and his staff enough!

I use this gym to train with Andre Fitness. It's a great experience , and affordable. I have great results. And feel sronger, and more confident in the gym. I started 3 months ago! Definitely recommend. The gym is clean and sanitized. Have spray bottles to wipe down machines.

This place is nice. Like the convince of it being 24 hours. It’s super clean. And the young lady at the front desk is so darn nice. I can tell the owner takes great care of their employees and the gym. The only complaint I have is they don’t have a deadlift platform or a power squat rack.They do have a smith machine and a hoist rack, which do nothing for me. This may just be me being a picky powerlifter but I’m not a fan because it’s really hard to get the bar set to the correct height, as the J-hooks are fixed. Overall this place allows you to get in a decent work out with the basics.

This gym is alright, I’ve gone through about 8 trainers within the year of my training membership( bad pay-$7 a session is highway robbery especially when each 30 min session is being charged to me $45). I really only come to this location a few times a month but the Whitlock location is much nicer.

Small gym with everything you need. Don't pay mind to the handful of negative reviews talking about "homeless people" and saying that the location is "dangerous". (to me it sounds like competitors writing bad reviews, or racist people that can't stand being in a neighborhood with many different people of color 🥴). This place is not dangerous in the slightest, and I haven't seen any homeless people lurking or anything like that. You need a keycard to access the gym at night, and the people that train here mind their own business. The price is a bit steep for what you get ($40 a month), but it's better than dealing with the LA Fitness business model, or other gyms in the area that dont have half the equipment this one has. It gets a bit crowded around 5-7pm but it's not too bad. The staff is friendly and helpful, although you can tell they're understaffed. There's always clean towels and spray bottles. Plenty of cardio machines, and all the weight machines you need, as well as free weights. dumbbells, kettlebells, and barbells (straight and ez barbells). Although lacking a good straight pull up bar with resistance bands. Overall a decent gym, one of the best in the area.

Terrible system set up. Canceling is near impossible and they barely help you.

Just discovered this new location when looking at Google maps. It's located conveniently between my office in Atlanta and house in Marietta. I was excited to give it a try and I didn't really find it to be a great gym experience, sadly. For starters, I noticed some dumbells missing and looked all over and didn't see them being used, etc (seemed to be a vibe of misding things). The gym appears to be put together haphazardly- and the barbell chest press station was wobbly as an example. The men's locker room is a huge square with funky lockers that are smaller than average, and just 1 shower- weird! Seems to be still being put together, but not the cohesive and clean experience like the many other locations I have gone to. I hope they upgrade and make adjustments, because it really is in a great area.

Not clean, no clean towels, homeless people often reside. That is true, I advised management and staff. I was advised to call the owner and she did not answer. The police has even been notified. Rather, than take ownership of the problems, how about ensuring the gym is safe and clean. I don't think that is too much to ask of a health establishment.

As a “giant” 240 lbs, 5’10 individual, I would visit this gym regularly (6 times a week minimum) and my experience here was always great. The trainer, Joe, really helped me whenever I had questions regarding my diet or workout schedule, and this not only transformed my body, but my mindset as well.

Busy but very nice workers. Personal trainers seem to know their stuff. Good array of machines and free weights. And of course can’t beat the location

I complained that the gym has gone downhill since last year. The new owner made some well needed changes. It has much improved.

It's got all the equipment needed. The big draw back is all the high school aged D bags that think they run the place and take up equipment for an hour plus. In all honesty I only come here if it's more convenient than the kennesaw location.

I felt uncomfortable going in during the covid surge so Joe was kind enough to reach out and suspend my membership fees until after. Very pleased with that level of professionalism!
