I was a member for 1 year, is not that great as they advertise. Is not bad either but in the end I didn’t see it to be worth the money. I used the swimming pool mostly and took the tennis in no time but some members are just nasty. I stopped going cause I just didn’t like the people and constant loud crowds everywhere. The staff is amazing though, Francisco is the best swim coach and having Craig as a tennis instructor was a pleasure. The front desk staff is amazing also. I also appreciated the instructors who use English during their classes. There isn’t much diversity (ok it’s Florida I know) and in some classes I didn’t enjoy the Spanish instructions or them playing only Latino music. Overall I think is worth giving it a year or two but not more than that. I wish they had an option to just let me use the pool. I would buy that membership.
I never write reviews – if I’m unhappy, I’ll just leave. But I’ve never felt so scammed in my life – every time I walk into Midtown, I feel like a sucker. Midtown is an absolute, total disappointment. I don’t mind paying more for superior service, far from it, but what Midtown is offering is a product that is objectively inferior to YouFit and the Weston YMCA at luxury price. The only, ONLY reason I see anyone joining is because of the tennis courts. If you’re just into working out, there are a dozen better options in the area, sure, they’re not as “prestigious” as Midtown, they won’t have mouthwash at the sinks and a cafe, but you’ll get a sweat in without being in an anthill, smelling other people farts for an hour. Major issue 1: Crowded. When I joined a year ago, there were fewer members and more classes at different times. In the past year they significantly expanded the membership without increasing the size of the facilities, which were pretty small to begin with – everything is now absolutely cramped. Good luck going to the gym after work – most gyms are crowded at that time, but here you’ll not have an open machine or bench at all. It’ll be full of 15-year-olds hogging every known machine while they scroll on their phone, and not re-racking their weights and putting equipment away. Major issue 2: The classes. During my membership, Midtown closed half its facilities for four months for renovations. That’s fine – the promise being that there’ll be more indoor classes with more variety. The Field, the result of these renovations, is an artificial turf space that takes up approx. 800 square feet of space that used to be dedicated to cardio equipment (now squeezed on the other side of the floor). The result – three to four classes a day, half of which take place during working hours. Only two classes after working hours PER WEEK. So, if you can’t make it between 8-5 or have kids activities, you’re pretty much out of luck. The result is a massive space that’s mostly unused for most of the day, and when classes do occur, they’re absolutely packed, you’ll be trying not to bump into anyone else doing a sit up. I made the mistake of going to a class this morning, and there was a minimum of 30 people there. Imagine 30 people working out in your living room. The availability of the cardio classes is somewhat better (Apex & Endure), but you can’t do those daily – if you like weights, there is a Bootcamp class, but it occurs only twice daily – either during school drop off, or after 9am. Why no afternoon bootcamp classes? Why no classes during lunch? Why does everything stop at 6pm? Why no classes on Friday afternoons? Why can’t you reserve your spot in a class so it’s not overcrowded? I’ll just tell my kids to walk to school and reschedule my meetings to accommodate Midtown’s schedule. Major issue 3: The price. I believe you should get what you pay for – if I’m paying this much for a gym membership, and I want more than nice fixtures in the bathrooms and free towels. What they sold me was a huge variety of classes at times that suited me and a great gym and then pulled the rug out with their Field. I feel scammed. And when their entire schedule changed, I wanted to cancel my membership. But – they lock you in a 12-month contract – you have no choice but to see it through. I’ve been lied to, and I’ve been paying for it for the past six months. I have to mention one massive positive – the staff and trainers are amazing, they really are. The swimming classes for children are amazing (both my kids learned to swim here), and massive shoutout to Francisco. But compare this facility to the Chicago one – Chicago has more studios, more classes with more variety (Boxing! Lifting!). The Weston facility is just antiquated, small, crowded, and overpriced for what it actually offers.
Best gym in Weston, but with cleanliness issues. I have been a member for 16 years and recently started to notice some issues. The club advertises "luxury locker rooms" on the web site. However, the AC registers in men's locker room have been filthy for a long time. I have raised this matter with the management (through surveys they send out) and front desk personnel (who are always super friendly) at least 4 times over the last 12 months. No result. Apparently, they think it's OK to have it this way.
My family joined the club 3 months ago. I have reported to the staff numerous times for 3 months that the showers don’t work properly in the women’s locker room. The first shower continuously running water after it is closed, the second showers water temperature cannot be controlled and is always very hot. It is very sad to see water waste. I have also reported all the times that the jacuzzi needs cleaning a few times per day to be able to be used because when is dirty it gets all foamy.
Since I moved to Weston I became a Midtown member with all my family. We believe it is super important to develop healthy habits surrounding for good vibe people. Midtown has all of this. The most professional coaches, an amazing place and really nice people working on. I have taken private classes with many of them Mikhael , Donna, Eryn, Aurelio, they all push to challenge yourself in every exercise. Mikhael always worries about our health and our best performance in class. He uses every equipment he can into challenge ourselves. Donna makes your full body rock in every training, she knows what a women needs to work after 40!! Eryn’s private sessions are extremely hard, she always focus on the technique and to be better on my balance and coordination, and Aurelio’s booty shop class makes me feel exhausted and thinking why I didn’t start 20 years before. Definitely I ❤️ my club.
