The staff here are horrible. They rarely pick up the phone and when they eventually picked up, they gave me all the wrong information. So when I dropped by on Sunday to purchase the day pass, no one was there at the front desk. And it was around 12:30pm, so technically there should have been staff there based on their website. Now I'm starting to realize why AI is taking over jobs, because some human employees/staff are utterly useless.
Love the in place! The staff is absolutely the best. The pool is a gem, and the sauna and steam room are perfect. Great equipment, new gym, and you could not have a better setting than this hotel. Bonus points that it used to be a YMCA and was fully restored. Strongly recommend.
Looking for a top-notch gym in the downtown/midtown St. Louis area? Look no further! The Locust Street Athletic & Swim Club is outstanding. The staff is incredibly friendly and attentive, always going the extra mile to make sure you have everything you need. The facilities are excellent, featuring a swimming pool, dry and wet saunas, spacious locker rooms, two distinct workout areas, and even treatment rooms for massages. I joined during a staycation, and the warm, welcoming atmosphere made me feel like a long-time member from day one. Highly recommend this gym—it’s a true gem!
I recently joined the Locust Street Athletic Club and couldn't be happier with my experience. The team is exceptional—Luke, who plays a pivotal role in ensuring everything runs smoothly, always makes me feel welcome. Mika, one of the trainers, is very kind and inviting, leading classes and offering fantastic guidance. Located within the historically beautiful 21c Hotel, the club boasts stunning original tile work in its large pool and whirlpool area. The pool, hot tub, steam room, and sauna are always clean and work exceptionally well, making each visit a true pleasure. The workout areas are equipped with a wide array of tools and equipment suitable for athletes of all levels. Whether you're a seasoned athlete or someone who could benefit from instruction and training, you'll find everything you need. Plus, on-site massage services provide the perfect way to relax after a workout. The amenities are too numerous to list, but what I appreciate most is the overall atmosphere. Where else can you indulge in wellness activities before heading to the elegant 21c restaurant for dinner, a drink at the bar, or exploring the art museum within? The set and setting are ideal for anyone interested in body and mind wellness. I highly recommend the Locust Street Athletic Club to anyone looking to enhance their well-being in a welcoming and well-appointed environment.
