The Scene – Although CRFC gets a little cramped during lunch and evening rush hour, it's manageable; clients keep their distance and respect your space. – – The Workout – There's a wide corridor of Olympic free weights and Nautilus Circuit equipment. The Icarian Cable Circuit also adds variety to weight-training regimens. The cardiovascular room is jam-packed with treadmills, Stairmasters, Tetrix Stairclimbers, NordicTracks and Lifecycles. If the steppers are busy, hop on something else. Need to work out sore muscles and stress? Try massage therapy. Three racquetball…

Okay gym, questionable business practices
by thorgan77 at Citysearch
Got an email to retry CAC for a reasonable fee, no initiation fee. But when I went by to sign up they said there was actually a $99 initiation fee (or would that be re-initiation?) which they'd reduce to $50. I hadn't brought the offer with me, but re-checked it later and it clearly stated "no initiation fee". No luck so far getting the $50 back. Argh. I'll use my 3 months then find an alternative.
- Pros: decent equipment
- Cons: dingy locker room

Dirty, Outdated and No Customer Service
by Runnergal at Citysearch
Facilities and offerings are lacking and out of date. Limited class offerings for working professionals. Membership team is slick and not interested in real customer service. Not worth the fees.
- Pros: none
- Cons: hygiene, facilities, staff

Free Parking in Cambridge! A rarity!
by notamorningperson at Citysearch
The newly renovated C.A.C. has a new group ex. room and a comfortable new yoga/pilates studio. The staff is very friendly,energetic, and helpful (especially in the morning) which keeps me coming back. The club is definitely a hidden gem in Kendall square tucked away in the Atheneaum building but with the free parking, it's very easy to get to. The basketball league is HUGE! This 20 something year old club looks brand new and as long as the parking stays free and the staff keeps smiling, I probably won't go anywhere!
- Pros: Free Parking
- Cons: Hard to find gym
