I figured I should wait to write my review till I had been going there for at least a month, but after two weeks I'm already in gym heaven. I may be biased since I came from the most junky gym, give me a working piece of equipment and I'm sold, but seriously this place rocks and my body has the wonderful pains and soreness to testify. I will be straightforward about what they offer and the perks that have me singing their praises. 1. From the moment you walk in, super friendly, know you by your name and remember if you take a locker or don't take a locker type of folks 2. Full locker room. Complete with lockers, showers, sauna,steam room, changing rooms, blow dryers, shampoo, soap, vanities, and they provide TOWELS for you. No longer do you have to be that person that forgets their towel and has to flash everyone and dry off with paper towels. Shower towels and work out towels! I might have been sold just from the towels!! 3. Two pools. One warm water pool and one lap pool. 4. Co-ed Jacuzzi. Big and spacious. 5. Classes GALORE!! They offer on a weekly basis: 22 classes in the lap pool 34 classes in the Therapy Pool (mostly geared toward seniors) 50 Group classes varying from spinning, yoga, pilates, dancercise, bootcamp, ballet and body, power sculpt, zumba, etc... The list goes on. Plus they have them starting as early as 6am all the way to 7pm. So whatever schedule, you can find a class. 6. Trained Instructors that actually know what they are doing and care! 7. Trained Certified Personal Trainers that watch what you are doing, motivate you, work with you, and genuinely care about your progress. No trainers texting while you work out here!! 8. A running/walking track 9. Brand new equipment in their entire upstairs weights and cardio area! Tons of equipment and TV's on each cardio equipment to watch what you want. 10. SO NOT A MEAT MARKET!! No leering dudes or creepy men telling you how to perform your workout! 11. Since it is attached to the hospital, they have a cafe that serves everything from soup to sushi and they have the calories list next to food items. Great place to stop and get a bite to eat, coffee, or drink before or after your workout. 12. Day care with very flexible hours and friendly staff with plenty of toys and entertainment for kids. 13. SO CLEAN and you see them constantly cleaning all week long. 14. Onsite they also have a place to get a massage, facial, pilates reformer classes, and other spa treatments. This does cost extra and not included in membership. I'm sure I will learn more awesome things about Mercy Healthplex as I continue to train there, but I'm sold already!! One side note: This particular one on the west side does NOT have a racquetball court or a basketball court. That is the only bummer for me, since I love racquetball, but I figure I will stay busy with all their classes! read more

Mercy Health - Family Practice Near Me - Cincinnati, Ohio

WIthout question best place to get a workout on the westside of Cincinnati! THe staff is engaging, and the trainers work you HARD!

The quality of this facility has deteriorated a great deal since I joined about two years ago. I am going to list my pros and cons below. To be fair, I typically only use the cardio equipment, so I can't really comment on the other equipment or amenities of the facility. Here's my pros & cons: Pros: Friendly staff Generally clean Never have to wait for a machine Towels are provided Soap and shampoo is provided in each shower stall The number of showers and lockers is adequate Cons: As I write this review, the men's sauna had been out of order for about two weeks There is a treadmill that has been out of order for at least four months The men's locker room is in terrible shape. There are baseboards literally falling off the walls The drywall and paint is in bad need of repair The one shower with a handheld sprayer is broken frequently and bandaided. It has been broken for about the past two weeks Most of the cardio equipment is old and tired. Some of the touchscreen displays don't work correctly You never know what TV channels will be available on the screens attached to the equipment. One day a particular channel will work and the next day it won't. Sometimes channels are unavailable for weeks at a time. Also, the screens are very fuzzy and hard to view OK, that's my review. There is no way I would recommend that anyone join this facility for nearly $90 a month, which is the current fee for one member and does not include the use of other HealthPlex facilities in town. I am actively looking to join a new gym and will probably be gone before the end of November. read more

The lady with red hair at the front desk is very rude I pay too much money to be disrespected by her every time I go in .She makes me very uncomfortable the trainers are nice but beware racism is real there read more

I was willing to pay the premium price compared to many other fitness centers because I wanted to swim laps, and many places don't have a pool. However, there often are not lanes available. If there is either a class or private lessons, which is part of every day, there are only 2 lanes available, and people swim for long periods of time. I asked whether they would consider having an online sign-up for a lane, with a reasonable limit, so that we could know that we would be able to swim, but they said no, first come, first serve, and perhaps I could come swim right when they open at 6 am! I dropped my membership and joined a much cheaper place -- no pool, but they have everything else I need. read more

Great gym with lots of perks...a little on the expensive side but worth it if you can afford it!

Convenient, friendly, and health-focused! This is more than a "gym" - it's a bundle of health-focused offerings all rolled into one location! I use the personal training service here - Shawn is great! They are prepared, knowledgeable and friendly. I also use the massage therapy services frequently! I appreciate the tie to Mercy - it feels like I am a part of something that is not just a gym - it's a community where people are trying to improve their quality of life! read more

Explained when I joined that I had family health issues which may cause my to put my membership on hold at times. I was told this was no problem, they would work with me. I was never told I would have to pay for freezing my membership, I was charged approximately $30 each month my membership was frozen. They claim they gave me a paper explaining this to me, but I did NOT received anything when I joined explaining this and was not even told about it. Mercy Health Plex is a greedy organization whose main concern is taking your money. read more

When I joined in the summer of this year, all was great. But for the last 5-6 months, the whirlpool has been closed, and more recently the men's sauna has been down. A little disappointing, considering the fact they're raising rates after the New Year. I know sometimes rates go up, but to do it after a long run of members dealing with equipment failures seems unfair. Having said that, member staff is always friendly and the workout areas and locker rooms are clean, which is more than can be stated for many westside fitness facilities. But for the price difference, members should not be going such long stretches without access to amenities they advertise. read more

I love Mercy Healthplex because of the warm therapy pool. I don't use anything else because I have fibromyalgia. Why can't people like me that only need therapy in warm water have a half price discount. We could have a hand stamp like a club to show we are only permitted in the pool area. This disease costs me over $300.00 a month not counting my membership. Please consider this. I'm sure anyone in my position would not mind being checked on to make sure were not anywhere else in the club. read more
