In-Shape Fitness - Vacaville (CA)

4 /5 CodyT42: Update: They have made drastic improvements since my last review. The people stuck in their Facebook wall on their phones as entry staff are now excellent and greet you with smiles and helpful attitudes. One guy named Devon (bad with names?) is a standout as a model employee. They have updated the entire indoor pool and gotten a lot of new equipment! Their classes are getting better too! The paint and bathrooms look much better than my previous pics. They still allow people to camp 1-3 machines for a LONG time. Example: A guy was on the curl machine for 45 minutes (mostly talking on the phone) and I asked him if I could get in 10 minutes and he flat out said nope and acted annoyed. I asked the staff about people camping machines and they just said sorry. Yesterday a guy was camping 3 machines and a guy went to get on an empty machine and was yelled at from across the room. Maybe a sign could be put up that says something to the effect of "Please respect other members and only use a station for 15 minutes or less at a time" just top make it seem like you care? Also they have switched to a new wet wipe system of cleaning the machines that are either almost out or dry when used. All that being said it is a great place to go now! Wonderful gym! Much better now! As you arrive, 90% of the time the front desk is completely unstaffed. If it is, a young girl with her face glued to her phone’s Facebook wall is there and doesn’t give you the time of day. There is one younger guy that sometimes staffs it and he is personable. There are constant machines down with little tags but will be down months at a time. The interior is not kept up well, particularly in the dressing rooms and pool areas. Today there was a really loud fan squeaking as it had for our last few visits. Skelton crew happy to take our money but not invest in their own business. They also allow people to throw and slam weights loudly after which the person will yell or scream like an animal that needs to be put out of its misery. Machine campers galore. Rethink the is place if you’re looking for a gym.

5 /5 Oscar Altindag: In-Shape Brown’s Valley is hands down one of the best gyms I’ve ever been to. It’s tucked away in a peaceful, nice neighborhood, far from the chaos of shopping centers, which makes it the perfect place to focus on fitness. The gym itself is always clean and well-equipped with top-notch machines and gear for all types of workouts. What truly sets this place apart are the people. The employees are incredibly friendly and approachable, always ready to help or answer questions with a smile. They create such a positive atmosphere that you actually look forward to coming in. On top of that, the members here are just as great—everyone is respectful and supportive, which makes it a comfortable space for anyone, no matter your fitness level. If you’re looking for a gym that combines great facilities, amazing staff, and a welcoming community, In-Shape is the place to be!
