Great gym! Huge weight room area and has a women's section only. Plenty of equipment to get a good workout in for a reasonable price.

This place is such a scam they claim to be the best gym in somerville and all they want is your credit card info so they can continue to charge your card even after you canceled your membership. DONT GO TO THIS GYM read more

I've been going to Ever Fitness ever since it opened. The place is clean, well-maintained, and there's lots of equipment and weights. The other customers there are friendly. I especially like that the place isn't jam-packed with machines, which allows me to exercise without being on top of others. There's good ventilation too, despite the fact that it's in a basement. Good fast wifi! read more

Really great gym! They have great updated equipment. The staff, manager and team are all super friendly. They do a good job of keeping the gym and lockers clean as well. Highly recommend read more

Great gym! Great location, very clean, great staff, the women's area is a great touch :) highly recommend

I've been a loyal member for almost three years and I recommend this gym to anyone looking for a friendly and affordable place to workout. The gym consistently improves, introducing new machines and equipment to the space. For women seeking a safe and more private area, the women's only section is very large and has equipment comparable to the rest of the gym. The membership price is higher for the women's only section but absolutely worth it. One of the best parts of the gym is its exceptional customer service. The staff members are friendly and attentive, always ready to address any concerns. An additional perk is parking is free and convenient, which can be so rare to find in the Boston area. Overall, this gym is affordable with everything you'd need for a great workout and excellent staff to help with any concerns you may have. read more

Elian is a kind worker at ever fitness who's always willing to answer any questions you may have !

I love the place one of the best gyms I've ever worked out at. And I do construction all over the country.

TERRIBLE gym. Incredibly rude and condescending manager - I did not feel safe as a women I would not recommend here at all.

As far as gyms go, I've got no gripes with Ever Fitness. After temporarily moving to Somerville, my partner and I initially signed up at the YMCA. At the time, we had a car (which made the journey up hill a little easier to swallow), and I had heard good things in the past from friends using other Y's. Unfortunately, I found the facilities at the Y very haggard and frequently all full when we arrive. I took a second look on yelp and came across Ever Fitness. Photos seemed promising (many cardio machines, that looked relatively new) and it was an easier walk from Union Square (where we are now car-less). When visiting, the sign-up seemed straightforward and a good deal: she signed up under her name but that allows her to bring someone else each time (effectively, a two-person membership), and for only $29! I use to pay $30+ in SF for an individual membership, so seemed like a deal to me. Since we've been going, we've really had no issues. Again, there's never an issue getting a cardio machine, and for the most part they are all in good working order (aside from the occasional one that goes down, which seems to be fixed within a few days.) The only time we were mildly annoyed was them being closed on a random day (to be fair, it was near a holiday, but still not a day you'd expect a business to be closed). Only wish that they were a closer walk during the cold winter days! read more

Ever Fitness is an amazing gym. The staff and people are great. I really appreciate all of them and the hard work they do to make a great facility read more

Not a good gym for women from what I hear. A few friends have left the gym due to a surcharge for women. read more

Ever Fitness - Surcharge for women? - Gyms Near Me - Somerville, Massachusetts

Beware! Especially women. Don't go! Been going here for many years. Went back after pandemic, introduced to use the women's section like before but in different area, after two months, they said if you want to use the women's section you pay 20-25$ more. So I started working out in the "unisex" area instead. Was fine but I asked the guy at the desk if he show me where to find the 12 or 12.5 weight like I was using in the women's section, they said they don't have that. I use 12-12.5 for biceps, healing injured rotator cuff. The manager told me to just more reps with the 10 pound weight. The "unisex" section equipment is not built for a small frame ( 5'5 135) as mine and doing the thigh abduction and adduction rubbed my ankles. While all the equipment in the women's section fit my body. The manager is very rude and unprofessional to say the least. Told me to leave. This was a classic example of BAIT AND SWITCH. I feel that is unfair for FEMALES to have to pay 20-25$ more to get the equipment that they need. Plus the "unisex"section filled with meatheads gawking at you. Do not go if you are female! They only want your business if you pay 20/25$ more. Also they charged me while it was closed during the pandemic. They don't see what they are doing is wrong. read more

Compared to a lot of gyms that I have been, the number one thing that I like about this one is that it is always clean and the machines always well maintained. I have been going there for almost two years and the only time a machine broke, it was repaired in a couple of days. Also the type pf people that go there and always very friendly and do not hug machines for hours. I highly recommend this gym to everyone. read more

Horrible new member experience Charged a sign up fee that was never mentioned. Refused to honor their prices listed online. Staff members refuse to take responsibility for the extra, random charges. When I told I refuse to pay charges not included in contract I was threatened with them breaking my contract. Employee (Tyra) refused to communicate or supply supervisor name. Horrendous service. Expect to be treated with rudeness from staff. Besides the above, cleanliness is a serious issue at the gym. New members beware! read more

This place is a dump, for one. The middle aged woman with the short gray hair who "cleans" the place in the morning is the rudest woman I've ever met. She constantly walks into the men's locker room in the morning while we're getting changed without so much as announcing herself and asking if it's ok to enter. She just looks at you while your pants are down and numbly asks, "are you changing?" Then if you have the nerve to tell her she's acting inappropriately, she and her daughter will gang up on you while you're working out to tell you how rude YOU are! Outrageous. Canceled my membership because of these two ignoramuses. read more

Ok gym for the price, but there are better options out there. I'll start with the good- I tried it out using a groupon- I thought the price was pretty reasonable for 3 months of use. I lived around the corner, so it was convenient. They have a good selection of cardio machines and the place is never too busy that you can't get on. They have a good selection of free weights, machines, and good space for abs. They also have a lady's only room. They do the best they can with the space, but feels like I'm working out in a dark basement (which you are!). Machines are pretty dated- but functional. One to many lunkheads in the gym- slamming weights, not putting them away, etc. There's not really any good gym etiquette and it makes for an unwelcome experience. The front desk is fine, but overly paranoid about people sneaking into the gym. There was multiple times I was asked if I had a membership. I tried to be as polite as I could but it was frustrating. Unless you live in the neighborhood I would recommend heading elsewhere. read more

cheap, HUGE gym. New to area, read the reviews but decided to check it out anyway since it's so close. glad I did because I found the perfect affordable gym with pretty much all new equipment and everything you can need. shoots read more

This place is a dump, Planet Fitness is better! - I got a three-day pass, moved to the area, looking to join - toilets are dirty - no gym etiquette, people rack up bars and walk away, don't put plates away, hog 3-4 machines at a time - guys sit around on machines and talk about boxing and don't move- go to Dunks! - guys work out in jeans, don't care, not an inspirational place at all - Yesterday, the woman at the desk asked for my name, later she came back and said I wasn't in their system. I showed her my card and she demanded to know the skin color of the woman who issued it- crazy! interrupted my workout and kept saying I wasn't in her system- even though I had a valid pass (will post image). I literally drove two miles to Work out World and finished my lift. - Too uptight, not chill, not professional - there are cheaper, cleaner gyms within a mile read more

This place is the worst, Charging me $368, not being understanding with all the Covid situation, they claim it's not by contract yet again they don't cancel memberships they just keep charging, they don't call to let you know that ur card didn't go through they just kept charging me, seems like through Covid, now harassing me to pay them all the money or they will send me to collection customer service sucks employees are not respectful. read more

cancelled my membership and was still charged the following month during the pandemic. pretty much EVERY other business has been understanding about making their consumers and health, but i have not seen that here. i used to really like this gym prior to the pandemic due to the location, so it's a shame that there isn't that understanding; however, i can't overlook the fact that there have been mice/rats in the women's section. read more

This place is the worst... after I've been calling to find out if classes have started and to see if my membership was still frozen, went there and was told by the VERY RUDE guy at the front desk the they have been charging me all this time and that I had to go there in person to freeze my account... no communication between employees, was told one thing on the phone and another in person. No understanding about COVID..... read more

This review is specifically for Ever Fitness inability to realize they need to turn on the A/C in the summer (July and August). The past 10 days it's been above 80F and over 80% humidity. Today? It was 100% humidity. The floors are completely coated with moisture (let's all hope that it's water...) which are slippery and dangerous (not to mention completely disgusting). Additionally, the locker room floor is visibly wet with ZERO chance of drying. This is nothing new, this happens "Ever" summer, I'm assuming the owner doesn't want to pay for the electricity, so he keeps it set at 80F. If you like your space even mildly comfortable and funk free, you should find another gym. read more

Reasonably clean with decent selection of equipment. Mostly a lifting place. However, There is a large cardio section along with a ladies only cardio/lifting area. A classroom area alllows for instruction in multiple exercise routines. No music is played, only the same CNN channel on multiple TVs can be heard in the background. Open early, good parking, WiFi available. read more

staff would not let me workout because I am not a Massachusetts resident. Very strange and disappointing after a 20 minute walk to the place. No explanation given. read more

Rude staff, that's as far as i made it. I called ahead of time and verified that they offer a free trial, then went in and gave the guy at the front desk my ID and he checked the system and it went like this: Him: Have you been here before? Me: Well, when it was Gold's gym I have (I had a membership from 3-4 years before) Him: It's the same ownership, that's why I asked! (in an accusatory tone) It shows I'm the system that you've been here before! Me: Yes, I was here when it was Gold's gym (not knowing what he was getting at) Him: That's why I asked! It says you've been here before! Me: Ok (still not knowing what he was getting at) Him: That's what I can't give you a pass! Me: Ok, what are the membership rates, and do you do month to month Him: $29 a month and you pay first and last, and a $49 fee That was it. No offer for a tour, no mention of how the gym improved since I was there no attempt to get be as a customer whatsoever. He acted like I was trying to scam them - how was I supposed to know that it was the same ownership and I couldn't get a new member pass?! Time to keep gym shopping. read more

They since have been much better with the billing-- things are good enough to not leave. Well done in calibrating.

The prices fluctuate between 30-35 dollars a monthly prices are never consistent. Half of the machines are broken. The bathrooms are disgusting. Then they want to keep charging you after they closed your account WTH. read more

They clean The facility while you're working out. I seen men working out inside women side only. They definitely charge too much for nothing special worse gym ever read more

This place is terrible. There is a reason it has so many 1-star reviews. The monthly price seems low, but they charge first and last month up front as well as an annual fee, and continue to charge your credit card after you quit. It seems like a scam, or at the very least shady business practice. The workers are unprofessional, unfriendly, unhelpful, and they all seem miserable. Even if you have to go farther away to work out, it's worth it to not have to deal with this basement gym, unpleasant staff, and untrustworthy ownership/management. read more

Great equipment and a better staff. Locker room and showers; sauna; a vast selection for cardio training; an even better selection for weight training. Overall, a great gym with an equally great monthly rate. read more

Basement gym with terrible ventilation and no AC. Equipment options are fine, but quality is poor. The barbells and dumbbells are in terrible shape. Water fountain only dispenses room temp. The floor and locker rooms are always unclean. Staff doesn't keep up with equipment so weights are all over the place all the time. People bring speakers to the gym so you'll be hearing their music through your own (staff doesn't care). The new payment plans are a joke. Don't be fooled by the $10 a month plan, its really $35 a month the first year, then $27 after that when you do the math. This is also one of those gyms that we're charging people while it was closed, and blamed "the system" but made no effort to refund its customers. I had to get my money back by filing a claim with my bank. read more

The fitness meets my minimal needs, but my car got towed when I was parking there to use their service. I don't like to worry about my car getting tow while I work out, so I am not going back. read more

This gym is more than meets the eye! The fact that it is in a basement may seem unappealing, but don't let that deter you from joining. The gym really isn't crowded. The pre-work crowd is very small so in the mornings it is easy to get a good workout in. I'd say the only bad time to go is between 5 and 6, as there is a big of a Post-work rush... but this is true at any gym. The staff are extremely friendly and so are the people who work out there. I keep to myself at the gym but I am still greeted with hugs multiple times a week when I run into friendly "regulars" The best thing about this gym is that they are always trying to make it better and better. Since I've been there, they have replaced all of their free weights with nicer ones and have built a second closed off area for stretching, foam rolling, etc. If you want the spiffyest, most beautiful gym with special hand towels or something, don't come here. It ain't no equinox. But it is an incredible place to get down and do some hard work. I only wish they had more squat racks (preferably power racks) and a back squat machine. read more

This gym stole my money DURING A PANDEMIC and has nasty employees with bad attitudes. I've never had someone in customer service speak to me so poorly. Not to mention I only went to this gym out of convenience (location) - it's run down and dirty. I would say you get what you pay for, but actually you get ripped off and still get less! read more

Incredibly rude management, and shockingly the man who subsequently got on the phone after the female manager hung up on me, saying he was the owner and he didn't care what I had to say, he doesn't work for me etc. All this because I asked about the 3 day card to try out the gym. I didn't know it had an expiration date on it, not did I know you had to use it for 3 consecutive days (that was a new one to me). None of this was mentioned when I received the 3 day pass. Instead of them being professional and discussing it, they (including the so-called owner) became rude, obnoxious and hung up on me!!! What place of business does this? Good luck to those trying to try out this gym! read more

This is probably my favourite gym in summerville. Compared to all the other gyms I've been to, this is the one that have the most variety on machines. Not all of them are new, but they are excellent. read more

No thrills gym to satisfy basic needs for working out. Has good collection of cardio and strength equipment ass well as free weights. Kept clean and in working order pretty well. Staff is somewhat absent and not super helpful. Classes are limited and class equipment (specifically spinning equipment) is outdated. Decent option if you live in the area and don't want to pay much money for membership. Plus there is really no other alternatives in the area. read more

Good gym, good equipment, but can someone please explain to me why there is no music? Gyms are supposed to have a social atmosphere. All i hear is news and commercials blaring. Also makes it awkwardly quiet if you are trying to have a conversation. Get some good music in there and this gym could be a hit! read more

I liked everything about this gym: it's spacious and very well equipped, changing rooms are renovated and clean, there's a room for women. On top of that, the lady at the reception was awfully nice showing me around. There was a customer who didn't speak good English, and she went out of her way answering his questions and genuinely trying to help him, it spoke volumes. Is it the best gym I've seen? No. Is it great value for money (no sign-up fees, no long-term commitment)? Absolutely. read more
