I met my husband here. We’re going on 13 years together. While I will always miss their steam room, I’ll always hold Steamworks in my heart. Thank you for giving me this part of my life.

They used to have a publicly advertised transgender night called 'genderfucked' but they changed it to 'purple' and made it for onl trans men. It's not even obvious that it's for any transgender people at all.I am a trans man but I don't want to support a trans night that doesn't explicitly include transgender women

My first time coming and while it was a bit overwhelming coming in by myself, all of the staff were incredibly kind. I wanted to shout out the young guy who worked at the counter. Incredibly kind and helpful and friendly, gave me kinky orgs to check out that were more up my alley. All and all it was a great experience.

I've always had a fabulous time here. I've been to all the Steamworks clubs and this one doesn't have pools or some of the other amenities, but it's BY FAR the cleanest and has the most respectful staff. I'd go on a weekend night if you want to catch the most Pokemons. Go on a weekday night if you want a more chill vibe with all the dads.

What I have seen (October 14th) visit:1) Reception/site maintenance staff are extremely responsive (customer focused): friendly, polite, helpful and patient.2) Place is hygenic, vending machine, water fountains, showers...etc working at good condition.3) Plenty of open area to play even without renting a room:padded horse with strips, 2 beds, 2 cloth swing/slide, 1 padded banana shaped lounge "chair", 1 leather swing/slide, 1 lower cloth/swing. The place is well set up for fun...in all positions.4) The only nitpick that the place is understandably popular and the locker area is a bit narrow but with a bit of patience and perhaps getting your own good backpack, that will help.As for safety? I have noticed a lot of previous comment regarding that. Granted, the neighborhood isn't all peachy, and depending on time of day and various socioeconomic factors (you can tell I am a nerd)...the place is safe, there's staff doing regular patrols and of course the front desk is very attentive to whomever trying to get in.Now again, it's a bathhouse. The place provides a venue fun.For that, it perfectly serves that purpose.It's also a safe space:If one want to visit and not getting touched at all, they can and everyone will respect that. In the same vein, if people want fun, they need to ask for consent, and give consent.In my merger experience of being there for just hours, I had fun with a very respectful and gorgeous top.Of course it goes without saying, evenings and weekends will draw more visitors, and more likely to be able to find someone to have fun with, so...

FYI please note this location does not have a steamroom or sauna, they do have showers. However lots of fun great experience. Bear night was amazing.

By far the worst “bathhouse” in the country. Everyone’s just sitting around, very little engagement. And it’s the venue that creates that atmosphere.1. You can’t see what anyone looks like in any of the areas so I can’t even check guys out.2. No direction to the lockers. I had three people ask me where the lockers were as they walked around the play areas fully clothed. It’s not intuitive at all and feels super awkward for people trying to relax.3. No actual steam exists in this place.4. Absolutely nowhere but this awkwardly huge open room to mingle.5. Very few people walking around to create an atmosphere of cruising. They’re all sitting on their butts being antisocial.I left the eagle which had way hotter guys engaging in all kinds of fun and what a mistake that was. This Steamworks is a joke. We left after 20mins and felt we were there too long.

We enjoyed our time spent here ☺️. The place is great, lots of room to have fun. Depending on the time of the day you’re coming it might be less busy tho. This place is not equipped with steamroom, sauna or jacuzzi (this has been shared transparently by the staff before paying) but could be even better is they decide to install it.

Great place to relax and have funSteamworks is a clean and well-maintained place, with a staff that is always attentive and ready to help. While attendance can sometimes be low, I’ve come to understand that this is a common trend for similar venues since the pandemic. Despite these challenges, Steamworks has managed to remain open and continues to offer a safe, enjoyable, and welcoming space.It’s impressive how they’ve maintained their quality and atmosphere over time, even during tough circumstances. This is definitely one of the few places where you can have a great time and feel comfortable. Highly recommended!

Edit: 12-11-24 Thank you for your response and clarity on this issue. it means all the world.(For those reading this without any context there was an issue with an employee not applying the Military discount to Veterans; this has been cleared up.)The staff and the facilities are still very clean,.08-10-24I had a delightful time at this location. There is little I can add to the reviews already given; the staff are bright and shiny people, the location is meticulous and welcoming. My fellow guests were very generous. 😉

I once had to book when I missed a connecting flight and I found the establishment a mix between busy not busy, clean, and the ambiance welcoming. One is responsible for their timely checkout and this is made convienent with monitors posting room checkout times. It wasn't terribly busy but I still enjoyed my time there. There is no jaccuzi, but there was a steam, dry sauna at the time. On reading many of the reviews, seldom written anymore, since the pandemic squawshed attendence, many of these facilities are struggling to remain open. For one, having a wet area takes a tremendous amount of $$$ and effort to prevent mildue and ensure cleanliness, in particular the jacuizzi and pools. Signs posted state showering first, why? The main cause of water soiliage is the lack of showering. Sun creams wash off and spoil the clear clean water, among other dirty habits by customers I care not to mention. Foam builds up and in no time the wet facilities must be cleaned again literally, every 12 hours, and for some more frequent. These amnenities are the first to suffer neglect or elimination.Alot of reviewers are downright mean and denigrating, snarky and completely unfair in opinions, and some are justified but over the top discrimatory. The days of these establishments are numbered. They exist for profit, but they are also community. Our freedom to live free of harrasment is coming to an end. You will one day wish there is one of these hideouts and getaways. Society forces LGBTQ to live on the margins indicative of where many of these places exist. You should remember this the next time you pull up to visit one on the outskirts of a city. YOUR MEAN AND NASTY REVIEWS DO MORE HARM AND NO GOOD.

Edit: 12-2-24I have to lower my rating at this time due to what seems to be a policy change involving tye discounts for Military and Veterans. I have been coming to Steamworks and Steam (Portland and Berkeley) for a good 10 years on and off, and have always been given the Veterans discount which I genuinely am thankful for. It isn't a huge discount, only 2-4 $ depending on the location, but it makes a difference be recognized and shown this small kindness as a matter of company policy; I can easily speak for us all, It makes a difference to us, even the smallest kindness, or respect shown to those of us still alive after the wars we were thrown in too.I don't know why they suddenly decided to exclude card carrying service connected military Veterans from an offer given since as often as 2 months ago. I was still getting this bonus up until them but not today. For whatever "Reason" They acted as if this had always been the policy. Informing that VETERANs are not eligible for the discount, only active duty soldiers.If I were still active duty and found this out I would inform my squad to not accept a discount that specifically refuses to acknowledge our fellow military volunteers. Every soldier is already a veteran, and for the majority of us we will always be soldiers as well.So my fellow soldiers, integrity is an easy call on this one, just polity refuse thier flawed recognition. It is an insult to you and to those who serve and served with us.So yeah. The staff and the facilities are still very clean, but missing the steam.08-10-24I had a delightful time this location.

Hmmmm no baths, no steam, no nothing. They told us before we paid, which was a nice touch, but still. Since there is no sauna, no steam room, no pool, no spa, there is nothing to do here when you're not 'into' any of the other patrons. So we left after 15 minutes. Waste of money, waste of time. No passouts given either so we couldn't come back and check again later.

DO NOT COME HERE! MANAGER KNOWINGLY LETS CUSTOMERS DEAL WITH PROBLEMS OR HAVE TO PAY MORE MONEY DUE TO THEIR OWN NEGLIGENCE AND LAZINESS! TREAT CUSTOMERS WITH ATTITUDE AND DISRESPECT! YOU WILL NOT BE REFUNDED FOR THEIR TERRIBLE TREATMENT OF CUSTOMERSHorrible and rude staff. I asked about my Chicago steamworks card if it would work here because I know they are part of a separate steamworks group. He said that it would work, but I told him I didn't have the card with me because I was under the impression that it wouldn't have worked. He got nasty that I had even asked about it when I didn't have the card with me as if I was just wasting his time. I am a curious person and wanted to know how the anonymous worked and he gave barely answered anything about it, seemed he didn't know how it worked. Then he sarcastically said I to me I don't remember if you wanted a room or a locker because you have asked soooo many questions.... really rude but I just moved on from it.Next I got to my room and then went to get a water and Gatorade at the vending machines. They wouldn't vend after a few tries with card and then one water came out. Then I tried a few more times and the gatorade and it wouldn't dispense. I couldn't understand why it suddenly wouldn't work. I then watched 4 other paying customers not get their drinks and struggle with the machines. I went to the front desk to let them know what was going on. I asked what else I could do to have my card work and they said that the only option is an atm that of course you have to pay a fee for. I told them that's not right to do to your customers. They told me their is nothing they can do because the machines are serviced by an outside company and that they can do nothing about it. That it has really poor signal and it doesn't work very often. So they were very well aware of the problem. I then suggested to the employee that they should put some kind of sign to let people know it doesn't always work well, so.people don't waste their time. To that I received the nastiest look as if I had taken a dump on the floor or something. Was awful... I got to the point where I wanted to leave and decided to talk to the manager. I told him about the front desk situation and he didn't care about his staff being rude. I then talked with him about the machines not working and he said they don't own the machines... okay I get that but these are also your customers! Do right by them and fix the problem. I asked him why would you not put a sign on the machines so your customers know that your machines don't work well and he told me "THEY WILL FIGURE IT OUT ON THEIR OWN" I saw 4 customers in 5 minutes struggle with the machines. This multiplied out is thousands and thousands of customers going through the same thing and the manager does absolutely nothing. How hard is it to put a sign up so people know? I care because I want the best for people and try to do good by anyone. This manager lacks a basic common decency and does not care for his customers. Please choose a better place to spend your time and do not support these TRASH people.

Went on Friday night.Even I don’t go to bathhouses for wet areas , I did not like the fact that they did not have them. In my opinion these kind of facilities calls for clientele.Was surprised when they told they were not part of the steam works family of Chicago.I had a lot of fun 😈😈, have open spaces not need to pay a room to be the center of the attention and show.Clean spaces, sexy boys, nice and kind staff.

This place is awful, ran by a bunch of bitter queens, I haven't been in over a decade, I tried to enter with my friends on pride this morning to find out I was apparently 86'd because I left a negative review (12yrs ago) regarding them pulling out the steamroom to save money rather than fix it, they literally warn you before you pay that they have no facilities other than to "play" my review was over a decade ago and doesn't even exist anymore! $45 for a seedy place to be touched without consent by meth heads, no thank you, but hey they have computers from 15 years ago that meth heads are always occupying so that's a win 😂 the only reason to go here over ClubZ was the clientele, but that has clearly changed over the last 10 years judging by the people who were checking in behind me!

I’ve been coming to steamworks for a while now and have almost always had a good experience. With the exception of one staff member, everyone has always been friendly and really nice and patient. There’s an east Asian staff member that seems to always go out of his way to be demeaning and disrespectful. If I see him working I almost don’t want to go in because I know he’s going to be rude and that’s all my mind can focus on while I’m there. He purposefully ignores whatever I’m asking him, has tried charging more than the listed price and the most recent experience on 12/27/23 made me so upset and uncomfortable that I felt I needed to post a review on it so that others can be aware of his uncouth and rude behavior. When I checked in with him this last time, I kept it brief because I know if I speak more he gets angry, so I asked for a locker, paid what was needed to be paid and I guess I made the mistake of asking for a different size towel. He ignored me, so I asked again, and he stared at me and said to proceed inside, so I repeat myself in case he didn’t hear me so he sternly and angrily tells me to proceed inside. I shouldn’t feel like I did something wrong by asking for a different size towel. I go inside as instructed and wait for him to come over thinking he may walk over to help me with the towel situation, but instead ignores me and walks away. I wait again thinking he might have gone to the back to grab a towel but he doesn’t come back out. I can understand being stressed out, tired etc, but being extremely rude and disrespectful to clients shouldn’t be the answer especially when they haven’t done anything wrong. At this point if I see him working the desk I won’t bother trying to go in because I don’t want to deal with his horrible attitude and I suggest to others to do the same. Everyone else though is lovely, has a smile on their face despite how busy it is, and is super accommodating.

Worse gay bathhouse ever, staff is extremely rude to guest and atmosphere is toxic and disturbing. No sauna for decades, and very uncomfortable environment. The best place to feel discriminated towards in the community by people who should be supportive of one another. Don’t waste your energy or time on cheap thrills. Drug use and unsanitary. They don’t care about their costumers.

Went with my friend so we could have a good time and play around but instead we had a horrible time as all kinds of different men kept touching without asking, mostly my friend, and they even did some insertion without asking among other things. Totally uncool. I will never be coming back to this place, do better.

It’s a nice place, there are always guys there no matter the day or time. It’s clean, even the small rooms are large enough for 2, all have tv, free wifi.. no sauna but well .. it’s not a problem.However, dear owner, sometimes when customer are complaining then you should not take it personal but professional. I will add myself to one’s who criticize this Slightly smaller guy who speaks with an asian accent.If I would not give a s….t about people with attitude I would have come here once and never again. Putting this guy at the front desk of your business is a mistake. This guy has such an arrogant attitude that is something I have not seen before. And I travelled a lot. Into 32 countries. This guy can not once!!! smile or be nice! And no I absolutely have nothing to complain that is the worst! I just checked in and got my towel and remote and key and all good. But this guy made it the worst moment one can imagine.As I said take it professional and my opinion is that this guy at a front desk will have a negative impact on your business.That’s my opinion.

I love this place, especially stuff that works here, they almost became my friends. Place has pretty fun and drivers crowd, especially during special events. Of course, there are areas for improvement (I wish there would be some amenities like steam room, hot tub, sauna, etc.), but I understand limitations. Mostly for me this place is way to express who I truly am and I am so grateful to stuff which allows that to happen.😘

I visited on their once a month transgender event night and I had so much fun! The staff was very friendly, and answered all my questions. It was very clean inside. There are condoms available on little dispensers all over the place. There are a lot of different places to play, or sit, or lay down. Broom closets, swings, and other playful furniture.I’ve been looking for a new place to go to since secrets shut down. I am going to try visiting on a non transgender night and hope things go well.
