I was so impressed with his level of knowledge and approachable demeanor - especially since I was never the gym type I decided to continue my fitness journey with him. He's really fantastic! The other trainers at Mode are knowledgeable, helpful and take the time to assist their colleagues-ensuring their client has a great training session. They are always ready to offer guidance, answer questions, and provide personalized workout plans. I appreciate their expertise and the fact that they genuinely care about helping me achieve my fitness goals. I feel very welcomed here. I highly recommend Mode to anyone looking for a excellent gym experience. The friendly staff, clean equipment, and motivating atmosphere make it a great place to work towards your fitness goals. I am thrilled to be a member and look forward to continuing my fitness journey here and reaching my goal.

At first the gym was okay.. the bathrooms are horrendous looks like they don't clean the showers…read moreDAILY... the gym is terribly smaller than what they make it seem on social media. Barely have any machines there's one of each so it makes it nearly impossible to do your workout session in a timely manner, since you have to wait for sometimes 2-3 ppl to use a machine before you can get to it. I happened to move to the suburbs and didn't have a chance to cancel in person so I thought I'd call THEY NEVER ANSWERED THE DAMN PHONE I CALLED LIKE 7-8 times NO ONE PICKED UP THE DAMN PHONE!!! The one time my partner went in person to cancel his membership he was given the run around and was not able to cancel his membership! We just want out of this horrible gym, the staff isn't easy to work with at all! I just want to cancel my membership and they make it nearly impossible! HORRIBLE SERVICE DO NOT PURCHASE MEMBERSHIP!! Update I sent an email to cancel since I moved and they're saying I have to live 25+ miles away from the gym to cancel my membership which is complete and utter bs!! The cancellation process is ridiculous and nearly impossible save yourself the headache AND DONOT GET A MEMBERSHIP HERE THEY MUST BE DOING TERRIBLY FINANCIALLY TO MAKE IT THIS FRICKIN IMPOSSIBLE AND FRUSTRATING TO CANCEL A SIMPLE MEMBERSHIP NOT EVEN AT MY LAST GYM DID I HAVE SUCH A HARD TIME TO CANCEL A MEMBERSHIPPPP

They regularly update various equipment and gym spaces, the services are appropriate and well executed, and they have a lot to offer if you want to be part of a community and not just have a gym membership. The administrative staff and the training staff are responsive to questions, quick to resolve issues, and have become people I look forward to seeing! Happy to be part of FFC - grateful to have found my place!

Mirrors are cracked, walls are buckling, duck tape is everywhere, spaces are dirty / there seems to be mold growing on the ceiling throughout, machines are often broken. There doesn't appear to have been any $$ spent on upkeep for the Lincoln Park facility (I cannot speak to others in Chicagoland as I have only attended Lincoln Park). It is open for members from 4 AM - 11 PM, though only staffed during peak times. I've had mostly good experiences when talking with staff members and other members, but some serious investment is needed to overhaul the space before it descends into complete disrepair.

I would STRONGLY caution anyone considering a membership here. Their customer service is some of…read morethe worst I've experienced at any gym. When you request to cancel or pause your membership, they'll continue to take your money but won't actually process the request properly. In my case, when I asked them to cancel my membership in advance (so I wouldn't be charged again), they canceled it early out of spite because I had complained about them not pausing my account when I was traveling for 3 months. Instead of showing remorse for canceling my membership, the manager tried to blame me, until I had email as proof. Even then, the manager, Darrell Szymanski was dismissive, rude, and completely lacking in empathy or consideration. A gym is supposed to be a place where members feel valued and respected--not taken advantage of. Unfortunately, this club falls far short. They were so condescending, it's was insulting.

I've been a member of Life Time Fitness for several years now and I have to say this location is…read more.. interesting. Located on the 9th floor of the One Chicago building near Magnificent Mile. To gain access into the club you can either walk in from the main lobby floor of One Chicago and take the elevator up to the 9th floor and that's where the club entrance is. There's only two elevators, during rush hour times there is often a line just to go up or down. You could take the stairs but who wants to climb 9 levels? That alone is a workout! Once you're inside the club there's 2 floor levels. The first floor has the check-in lobby, cafe, bar, locker rooms, rooftop pool and spa. The second level has all the workout equipment, cardio, and studio rooms for workout classes. I wasn't a big fan of the layout, it's kind of all over the place. Got a chance to take a Warrior Sculpt class with Taylor and it was awesome! One of the best sculpt classes I've ever had. I've seen some reviews complain about issues with the staff being rude but I honestly did not encounter any of that. Everyone was very friendly and welcoming. Oh and one last thing! This Life Time is open 24 hours! That's something I've never seen before, not even in NYC. That's a major win.

Management sends out surveys and when submit negative review you will be contacted but nothing changes. For a while they felt taping equipment was appropriate. I posted the above review a couple of years ago and the same equipment, ratty orange wall covering, stained floors... still the same. They continue to send surveys and give promises a big remodel is happening. And we just got a notice they are increasing monthly membership. In the notice they have the audacity to discuss investments when zero have occurred at this facility. I am still there for the 2 minute walk from my home but please new and prospective new members know that their assurances of new equipment and remodel is highly unlikely. Facility A/C was down for nearly two weeks and they kindly offered access to other locations, no small %off our monthly membership fee. Also, you mat freeze your membership with a $50 / month fee.

This is a solid gym. There's multiple floors of cardio equipment, a spacious weightlifting area…read morethat always has enough room even at peak hours, a Pilates studio, spinning studio, and multiple group fitness rooms. You can find pretty much any equipment here -- punching bags, sleds, reformer machines, etc. There is a good mix of group fitness classes here included in the membership price. Equinox has a reputation for being fancy -- thus the high price of this gym. However, I don't think this *particular* location really warrants the high price. This location isn't as flashy and new as comparably-priced gyms (like the Lincoln Common Equinox or the Midtown Athletic Club). It also lacks the extensive amenities of a place like East Bank Club (which has tennis courts, kayaking, basketball, etc). A membership at this location will give you access to some of Equinox's newer, fancier facilities (like Lincoln Common) as well as some of its convenient locations for office workers (Loop branch). If you live in Old Town / southern Lincoln Park and want a gym that's close-by this is probably the best option in the neighborhood.
