I've never had an issue of waiting for a treadmill like I have at other places, so I like that they have so many. I've never experienced any of the machines being broken either -- cardio or weightlifting. I like how many variations of each machine they have. For example, they have two variations of the leg extensions, two of leg curls, and about a million for bicep curls lol. The staff is pretty nice, and I've been satisfied with the conditions of the locker room/bathrooms. Parking is also free for the first 2 hours. Only down side is that it's too hot in here! No matter the time of the year, summer or winter, it's hot!

The locker rooms are consistently dirty, there are often no paper towels or sanitizing wipes available, and much of the equipment feels old and poorly maintained. For a "Signature" club, this location falls far short--it feels more like a Bally's from 1995 than a modern fitness facility. Really hoping to see improvements, but as it stands, this will likely be my last year as a member. Do better. Either upgrade, discount or close this location.

It has all the vibes of family plus grown-up fun. As for the restaurant, I'll shout out Cameron for delivering awesome service! My jerk salmon Philly was just delicious. The waffle fries with were crispy and tasty as well. My friend had the wings and Caesar salad, and she was also happy with her dishes. I'll definitely be back and would recommend!

I have never seen slower service in all my life. Although the food is very good, it takes forever…read more After 30 minutes of not receiving my order, I approached the counter and was told they called my number. I was sitting relatively close and never heard anyone call my number. They had to remake my food because it was cold. After that, they set up a big speaker on the counter with a microphone and called out numbers. It was still difficult to hear numbers being called over the music. They need a better system for informing customers that their order is ready. The salmon Philly was good, but spicy. The menu didn't specify this. Drinks average $15; good, but small.

Instead, Henry Crown caters to people who like to workout to the scent of generations of sweat, blood, and tears. The 800 indoor track and the batting cages are great for the winter. In general, the machines are in good shape, and rarely busy. Unlike the nearby Ratner Athletic Center, nobody has to wait for the machine they want. HC also has a large, open room that is perfect for martial arts-bags, mirrors, and mats. Henry Crown is free to enrolled UC students, and memberships can be purchased. A discount is available to University-affiliated individuals and their families.

As others mentioned, yes, Henry Crown is old and dirty…read more In spite of its grime, though, HCFH is still the superior gym on campus if your goals are strength-related. With 6 power-racks and benches, free weights, a full-sized indoor track court, and squash/racquetball courts, Henry Crown is a place for serious gym-goers looking for serious results. If you want to watch TV while bouncing on an elliptical in a pristine, air-conditioned environment, go to Ratner. I daresay that people frequenting Henry Crown are not looking for this experience and if what you seek is a well-stocked and serious place to work out, this is where you'll be!

Great facility!!!!! The administration isn't the best but the classes and instructors are AWESOME!…read more Before my job relocated, I signed up for the fitness center here. What attracted me was the price and that the gym was well equipped but not overly crowded. Everything was well maintained and clean. This past spring I signed up for High Impact Aqua Aerobics. To my surprise we had a staff of handsome, athletic young men as instructors. My, my, my just beautiful eye candy. If this wasn't the best motivation, I just don't know what else there is. They worked us hard and kept it professional. No matter how hard the women tried to flirt they remained friendly but focused. This was one of the best classes I've ever taken. It was high impact and they delivered. Unfortunately the summer session was full before the spring was even finished so i couldn't sign up again, but I will make sure i try for the fall. Besides those instructors were assigned to the lakefront beaches as lifeguards for the summer, so I'm not really missing out on anything ;) The only criticism I have is the office staff. This place has set hours to register, which makes no sense to me. I can't remember but its something like 10-12noon and 2-4. So i came on my lunch at 1:00 (this was before I knew of the set time) and they were like you have to come back, i was like I'm on my lunch and I don't get off of work until 5. After going back and forth with the lady for a minute she finally let me register. This was so irritating because registration takes less than 5 minutes, so what's the problem. Then the park supervisor is always just sitting in her office on the phone, practically every time I come in. She isn't friendly and seems to care less whether people sign up for activities or not. But I'm glad I didn't let this deter me because I'm here to workout and get healthy.

Is is that no one wants to do their job? I signed my son up for a program and wanted to find out what More they offered. I was asked my sons name then told they didnt have him registered. Now the Only reason I gave my sons name is because I was asked His Name! After a few minutes I was told they didnt have him ... I told her his age , Yes he Is a minor. I told the nice lady she left me a vm saying to pick up key cards. Once i play the vm. She then tells me he cant pick up key cards??? Hes not 18. OK! Then she says, its under my name BC he is a minor. Well then Look Under My Name First! Then I ask about any more programs b4 summers done. Her: well u can bring him but I suggest u stay or he is supervised. Me: I just stare blamk faced. I didnt get my answet. Now i dont know what parent just drops off a 13 yr old at the bank of Lake Michigan, but it aint Me! So then I ask about the children out there in the water now. She tells me that its a sailing program but its full. GREAT UPSALE! Now they do put on a few actvities like movie nite, food, but i was asked am I getting the emails. I AM RIGHT ON FRONT OF YOU. WALLET IN HAND, NOT ASKING FOR FREE. Just wanted to know about how we can benefit each other. Oh I forgot, i had been sitting outside, waiting for someone to talk to for 33 min By Myself! When the people who work came from out the lake, do you Both of these 2 Grown indivduals didnt acknowledge my presence! Just walked right by. I then stopped the sista & asked if there was anyone available to talk w me. Now ofcourse I asked another individual whn I got there if anyone was available but i was told they were all un the water, thats why i waited patiently. BUT THE WHOLE TIME HER WAS UPSTAIRS. (HER=Someone in charge) Thanks JPYC. Is this one of the reason all the boats are now on 31st.
