Nice, small clean and friendly. Well equiped. Reasonabley priced and a lot of classes to choose from.

Joined in mid February- Danny helped us and was super cool. I really love the robust class schedule, I pretty much only do classes. My only complaint about them is that I feel like I’m always stuck focused on the same muscle groups even in different classes. The locker rooms are nice and the gym is always clean- overall a great experience and a place that makes me actually enjoy exercising. The trainers are usually great and I never feel like I’m being shamed for moving at my own pace.

Would not recommend this gym. Equipment is low quality and it always take forever to get on machine. They also try and make you jump through a bunch of hoops to cancel your membership, probably because many others have the same idea.

The best gym in Chicago

I've always been a big fan of the CAC gyms. The facilities are clean and well taken care of. Steam, sauna, and showers are available as well as plenty of towels. Locker rooms are well kept and stocked. Showers are changing areas are very clean. There are lots of weights and machines at this facility that help to mix up your workouts. The staff here is always nice to interact with. Classes are plentiful as well. Membership prices are a great bang for your buck, considering what you get!

The club has gone steadily downhill since it opened. The pandemic really threw it for a loop. Machines are old and often broken or ripped. The locker rooms and showers are falling apart and often filthy. There are almost no classes available these days. Seems the ownership has decided to "milk" this club for as much as they can and just move on. A real shame. Used to be the best athletic club/group in town.

Love this gym and I’ve been a member for years, but they really need to crack down on creeps lingering in the men’s locker room. Yesterday there was a buck naked old dude in the locker room for a solid hour. I heard a guy moaning in the shower two weeks ago. I’ve often been aggressively cruised in the sauna. Weekend afternoons are the worst. Please sweep through the locker rooms more often and eject the creeps.

It is IMPOSSIBLE to get help to cancel your membership - they will just ignore you at the front desk to make you owe another month and stop communications to then send you a debt collector 5 months later charging you for a service you wanted to cancel and they just ignored you. What a shame on this institution, I used to live the group classes but administrators/staff will just not let you go easily... how come I'm being charged without notice for months??

Really approachable neighborhood gym. Clean facilities, helpful staff, not overwhelming, and the gym goers tend to be contentious about wiping down gear and not hogging equipment. Can get crowded during peak hours, but equipment tends to cycle free quickly. Definitely a community feel.

A solid three stars for this location. Gym is clean shout-out to the lady and gentleman who are non stop keeping equipment and rooms clean I am grateful . culture of gym is nice. People come here to exercise just how I like it. Offers sauna and steam room with an abundance of lockers WE LOVE THAT. I’ve been a member of cac on and off due to having moved. I’m back and disappointed to see cac standards have significantly gone down post COVID. Is there no one to do maintenance on treadmills? Constantly having to check the machines to make sure I won’t bust my $hlt because they suddenly and abruptly pause throughout my run. My knees are important and do not appreciate it.Gym has a very awkward setup. Pool is across the street in an entirely different building YIKES that’s weird and will almost surely ensure I will never use it. Gym has no parking and very small. Weight room is tiny. Staff are give and take. Some are awesome and friendly others are dry faced and would much rather tend to their social needs on their phone than to greet and acknowledge members. All in all a good gym. perfection is rare. Even after all the cons I enjoy this gym.

Beware! They do not honor the terms of their contract, and will tell you that they see the mistake, but are unwilling to do anything about it. I was charged prior to the first payment date, so had been pre-paying from the start. Not too big an issue until I want to cancel my membership well beforehand, and LSAC claim that I must still pay.The gym facilities are passable, but are hardly worth mentioning considering their sheisty business practices.If you still feel COMPELLED to visit here, a short term or PIF membership is the only way you won't get scammed. I'm only giving 1 star because 0 stars aren't available.

Staff and members are really cool. Also the trainers are great. I hit up a couple group classes recently just because I realized I lack motivation and frankly the knowledge to pull off higher intensity full body stuff by myself, and I can say I'm really impressed with the trainers in each of these sessions. Specifically, Nikki is so cool and just really inspirational and has a lot of quality knowledge. I've been to a couple of her classes and she consistently delivers. She shared with me some helpful tips too which I've already incorporated. Generally the machines are available; only a few rare times I was limited by too many people in the weight or cardio area. One review mentioned the lack of classes, but by my standards there is an abundance of daily classes at all times of day. My wife recently checked out LA Fitness, but the group class schedule at LSAC is significantly better. So for me personally it checks all the boxes.As constructive criticism, I do think the gym could do some improvements to the men's locker room. Some of the other CAC locations have newer locks and the air seems more breathable or cleaner. Maybe LSAC can try to get better airflow or do a deep cleaning of the carpets or something. Sometimes the locker room can get a little rank. As well the steam room can get a little hotter than I've had at other gyms. I can only last a few minutes in there. One time the wand where the steam came out kinda burned my foot as I didn't realize I was sitting right next to it. IDK if any of these issues can be prevented, but to me that would bring it up to a 5 star experience. Besides these relatively minor things, it is a great gym. For the membership price it is in my opinion the best one in the area. I definitely recommend it to others!
