Olympic Athletic Club

Normally wouldn’t leave a review like this, but this place has awful service and false advertising on both mailers to your home with the same info on their website. Save Staff was aware and rude about it. I’d called earlier in the day they said they were too busy to give info prices then they made sure to let me know it would be “awhile” before they could give me a price. UPDATE 6/6/22 They just sent a flyer again with the same 1 day free pass that they don’t honor.

I first joined OAC pre pandemic (2019). I fell in love with the aesthetics and all the classes they offered, along with all the amenities and different workout rooms. My membership lapsed (decided to wait to rejoin until things got a little more back to “normal”). But I will without a doubt be rejoining once this Summer is over. Can’t resist being outside every chance I get (when the weather permits haha). I appreciate how accommodating, understanding and welcome all the staff is!!

I am a current member here and really like the gym. The amenities and discounts offered upon sign up are great as well. However, I'm only giving the OAC 3 stars because of their customer service. There is no way to access billing statements online so you have to rely on the front desk to help -- which has been unsuccessful the last 3 times I have asked. I finally called and asked to speak to someone in membership and was grilled about why I needed to speak to them until I was finally transferred, only to have to person I spoke with say "I'm sorry, what's your last name?" in an attempt to be done with the conversation as quickly as possible. It seems like the OAC only cares about getting new members, and does not care about nurturing relationships with existing members at all. At my previous gym, which was much larger, I had an online self-service portal, and was on a first name basis with the owner -- paying a much lower monthly rate. I'd like to see a change in my experience with the front desk and membership before I change this review.

I recently went on a tour of Olympic Athletic Club and became a member. I haven't been to a lot of health clubs before but based on the other gyms I've been to, this one is really fancy. It has so many different exercise rooms, most of them have windows that open, exposed brickwork and chandeliers. You can really feel you're in historic Ballard, but with a fab modern aesthetic. They offer fresh towels, have two swimming pools and a gorgeous basketball court that is also used for exercise classes. Plus, the bathrooms have their own hot tubs and saunas; I really appreciate there being a women's only hot tub. As for exercise equipment there is a lot - they have really cool stair climbers for example. I'll include more about the equipment after I've had more experience on them.
