Genesis Health Clubs - Sprague

Feathers are to birds as Genesis Sprague is to the holy grail of gyms.nnGyms should be inviting and fun..nIf you are looking for that, this is the one..nnGyms should have all the equipment you need..nThis one has that and more for you and me!nnGyms should be a place you should thrive..nCheering for all of your goals, they will high five!

Genesis offers great classes and this location is the one closes to me. I enjoy all the classes but the main studio is so dirty, not sure who cleans it or how often is clean. I have complain about it. The people at the front desk are super nice and the instructors are AMAZING! That’s why I keep going back.

Great facility (particularly Sprague location). Clean, excellent equipment, friendly staff and members, wide variety of benches, stations, cages and machines. Sprague has a track and an amazing number of cardio machines.

The cons far outweigh the pros here. Believe me—save your money and go to a Planet Fitness or similar venue and you’ll be happier.nnTo start, it took forever to actually get signed up with a household membership. The manager failed to respond timely to emails, had incorrectly quoted prices on paperwork (thank God we checked before signing anything), took forever to fix it, repeatedly forgot to get back with us, etc.nnOnce we were signed up, we realized the equipment is nothing to scream about. Several machines will be broken for extended periods of time, and the handles and pads are worn down or missing on almost every machine.nnFor real, go to a Planet Fitness. They have people constantly checking to make sure things are clean—in a pandemic, sanitizing spray and paper towels are always full—in a pandemic, and employees at least pretend to wear their masks properly—in a pandemic. None of these exist at Genesis. It feels like every other time I’m there I have to ask for them to refill the paper towels. I asked the front desk today to refill them and two girls were there, but told me it was another person’s job so I need to go find them. I figure maybe the employee would have the courtesy to go find “whomever’s job that is?”nnNot to mention the gross lack of sanitizing culture among members here. I definitely see people spray their equipment after use way less often than the opposite. Again, we’re in a pandemic.nnIt’s not worth it, ya’ll. For a fraction of the cost you can get way nicer, newer, same caliber equipment elsewhere and not be trapped in a contract.
