User Reviews of Miekos Fitness

Save money joining but they get you in the end.

Be aware of all the hidden fees and guidelines for canceling. They are the most disrespectful and disorganized company I have ever worked for. They refused to cancel and kept "losing" our letter to cancel. The endless phone calls were answered by people that did not know the meaning of customer service and did not care to even listen. I would not recommend them. You save money by joining, but I guarantee they make it up in the end. They'll deny it when you sign up, but take my warning serious and save yourself allot of money and heartache.

Yelp.com Review - by Reina H.

3 of 5 stars. I HATE working out. It is the bane of my existence and I want to find other ways to attempt to not be a fat girl. However, no one is looking at you while your fat-ass is sweating on the elliptical.…

4 of 5 stars. You get what you pay for. The Canyon Park location is nice, Lake City- not so nice. Staff are stupid and difficult to deal with. A few good instructors for a few classes. They don't really value…

Yelp.com Review - by west m.

1 of 5 stars. I was a member of Miekos for four years, along with a lot of my friends. It is close to home and not too expensive, compared to other clubs. I had to say so long to my pals and join Golds up the street…

Yelp.com Review - by Cali Z.

4 of 5 stars. Mieko's is great if you just want to work out, aren't looking for lots of crazy fancy stuff, and don't want to pay exhorbitant fees. A nice, basic gym. I pretty much avoid their locker rooms and…

Yelp.com Review - by Jessie D.

4 of 5 stars. I will preface my review with a disclaimer. I do not like to work out. I dread it. Last night, I had to preemptively reward my gym attendance by buying a new pair of shoes to motivate me to go. I will…

3 of 5 stars. Keith Olbermann is a bad boyfriend. We have a standing date on Mondays Wednesdays and Fridays and if I show up even just a little bit late, he starts without me. He never cuts me any slack.

Real people go to this gym to exercise

I joined this gym a few months ago and have very few complaints. There's almost always available parking and cardio equipment. The people at the door are friendly but not in-your-face. There are classes...

Very cheap but you get what you pay for.

I've been a member of Mieko's for several years now. The primary reason I have stayed with them for so long is price. While the facility was recently expanded, membership has not been capped which means long...

mieko's is great, the staff is always helpful, they even told me when their rush hours are so when i came in the next day it was quiet. the only problem is their parking, but i hear their expanding.

Miekos is very convenient for me. I love the location and the staff there. They've been very helpful.

Great gym for me. I am able to go at off hours and have never had any trouble getting on any machine I'd like to use. I've been a member since they opened and they assisted me in losing 30 pounds! Yes, 30...
