VASA Fitness

I cancelled my membership today after being with VASA Fitness since November 2017. While I stayed for years hoping for improvement, the experience has been consistently disappointing. One of the biggest issues has been cleanliness. I've asked multiple times for the gym to be better maintained, but the floors, locker rooms, and equipment are often dirty. Many machines are frequently broken or out of service, sometimes for weeks, and when they do work, After so many years, I finally decided it was time to move on. I hope VASA improves in the future, but I can't justify continuing my membership under these conditions.

Update: 9/22/25: fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me. Thought maybe my review changed something and still seeking tanning. Please see images. Note you can't see the hair and toe nails until the fluorescent bulbs are turned on. Come on vasa. Original: I don't do reviews often so when I do, it's for a reason. I am a studio member if Vasa with my home gym being the Smoky Hill location - just a few miles up the road. I went to the Quincy location because I wanted to tan and Smoky Hill only has red light therapy. I decided I would go do my normal workout and then tan. When you first walk in, it looks fine. It's when you look closer and start using - or trying to use - the equipment. There is more broken equipment than usable. the cables have probably never been maintained severely impacting the weight. Everything has a solid layer of grime on it like it's never been cleaned. The tanning bed has visible dirt, sweat and grime. I wouldn't go in there with the toe nails and dust hanging out on the floor. As someone who used to manage a gym, I understand that equipment may be a corporate issue but management needs to do better about controlling the things they can. And take a little pride in your workplace... a little cleaning could go a long way. Also a smile or good morning from the front desk instead of walking in to them on their phone. Highly advise everyone to go to smoky hill instead of this location.

We went in to start a membership but unfortunately they wouldn't let us check out the gym without supervision so we had to wait a while for someone to show us around. Once the guy started talking about the memberships it was game over. Thr people who start your membership sound just like a sales people. The gym has a 3 star rating and tries to nickel and dime you. Basic membership doesn't let you into the pool lol. You have to upgrade to the more expensive membership for pool access. Multiple different membership levels makes it super confusing and scammy. They charge you a membership fee of 60 dollars a year even tho they don't lock you into a contract. The gym is basically a scam and not to mention the horror stories on all these most recent reviews. Literally almost every review is a bad review and it's the same careless response that sounds like an automatic AI response. Don't be stupid and take your money elsewhere.

Great gym at that price. Most of staff friendly and helpful. Some of the machines need repair but most are great. Lots of nice people work out there and we have made some friends that we talk to outside the gym as well.

It's an okay gym was hoping it'd be better after I left chuze but seems like that was a mistake its always so super crowded also im working out its 11 pm I still have an hour then this worker chick starts grabbing the stuff im using as im working out and starts putting away everything and gives me a dirty look I told her im still using those and just scoffs at me she seriously needs an attitude adjustment. She was the skinny black chick with the long blonde dreads BTW yall need to have a talk with her fr fr. Bathrooms reek smell like a portopotty, the equipment is always breaking.

Everyone is nice and respectful but the gym is so dirty. I hate that it's the closest one. Biggest complaint though - they never have clamps!!!!!! It's like they refuse to get some and this could be dangerous. Half of the benches and squats racks will NOT have clamps so lifting heavy gets harder. If you deadlift you'll just have to fix the weights after each set

Today was my first workout at this gym. It was 80 degrees inside on one thermostat and 76 on another. I asked someone at the desk and he said the AC just can't keep up and its just the heat beatingon the roof. It was 86 outside when I had left, maybe up to 92 earlier in the day. Lot's of big places do better keeping it cooler. I was excited to join, I mostly joined for hot summer months when outside exercise isn't possible. It is hard to push myself in that temperature. Looking through reviews I see the same feedback from a year ago, and it hasn't been fixed. Otherwise the gym has what i am looking for. Unfortunately my membership may be short lived.

Just want to give a hands up to Tony who operates as the MOD nearly every morning. The morning crew who comes early in the morning loves Tony, because since he has been in place, the gym has been opened on time. Tony presence as MOD gives support to the front desk staff. Tony is respected and he cares about everyone's experience here at the VASA Quincy location. Tony is vibrant and energetic every morning which is nice. You don't always get a pleasant greeting from staff so it's definitely upbeat when Tony speaks, saying hello and wishing you a good workout. Another good fact about having Tony on board is that he handles all matters and issues brought to him in an expeditious manner. Tony knows operations and has the skills & knowledge and is equipped to be in a leadership role. VASA NEEDS MORE PEOPLE LIKE HIM IN PLACE. Tony is one of the reasons why I haven't ended my membership at VASA. Also, I've shared this positive feedback with both Chelsea & Jordan. I hope they and others recognize the outstanding job & work Tony has done and continues to do at VASA Quincy gym. Thank you, Tony, for all that you do! Keep up the great work!! - Kayla
