The gym itself is okay but the staff needs to improved their way to talk with clients. I went to ask about the seated leg press machines that were both broken and the manager was definitely rude. He didn’t say sorry about that not once. He said that the angle leg press was the same (is not) and kept arguing that it was only point of view. I’m definitely unhappy with the way he talked. He told me to go to another gym that opened nearby. That he couldn’t do anything

All we want to use is the pool for a handicapped person. But their rates are so high and they want to charge the aide as well even though the aide will just be helping the handicapped person

Great place... friendly workers and big enough to find a station. They have swimming for the kids and staff that help them learn proper lifting. 5 STARS for sure..

Wow I am impressed with the new management at Covington location. The front seat manager she’s very polite and get this, the manager Saul walks around and picks up paper towels and bottles and is very polite he doesn’t have to do it. I asked him why do I always see him walking around cleaning and he calls it a “club pride” well his club members is very proud to be apart of. Thank you LA Fitness for caring and doing the right things!

This gym is nice with quality equipment and amenities. However, it is quite evident that the staff have completely failed at enforcing the mask mandate rule. Unfortunately, the majority of the members show little interest in complying with the rule. While I was there, I would say that less than 20% were wearing masks. There was also a full-court basketball game going on with not a single person wearing a mask. What is the point of even having the rule in the first place if it is not going to be enforced by the establishment?!

Very clean and safe. Not very busy when I visited on a Saturday afternoon. I just wanted to practice hitting the ball around in a racquetball court after not playing for over 5 years. I didnt know that the drinking fountains are still turned off so bring your own bottled water or buy from their vending machine. I was told that the drinking fountains may be turned back on soon.

The worst experience ever, Ill never choose LA fitness again.First of all the swimming pool was never avaliable, you need to make a reservation 2-3 days before, changing room is dirty, sauna and other several facilities are closed. After a while I decided to cancel my membership but it was not so easy. You cannot cancel by phone or online,...only in person.I went to the gym and they said I couldnt cancel because it was the weekend, then 1 hour later I received a message that my credit card had been charged the annual fee.I left for the gym immediately after work so that I  can reach them during office hours (which is at 5pm) .Finally I canceled my membership,and tried to get a refund for the annual fee, but the manager Sydney was really rude and  did not refund the fee.They dont care about their customers, they only need your credit card and charge as many fees as they can before you leave.

I applaud the sales team for convincing every lackadaisical young adult in the area to become a member as if it was solely to keep an influx of people loitering at the machines. More often than not, its usually a group of people spending more time on their phones than actually using the equipment. Despite well posted reminders, the clever people of Covington simply forget the easily acquired skill of reading when they are in close proximity to signs that suggest we are at the gym to workout- not socialize with our gym bros.When gym-bros arent in your way, its usually the cleaning staff. To no fault of their own, they are simply doing their job. But for a gym that is not open 24/7 why on earth is there constantly people cleaning during business hours? With COVID we are encouraged to bring a sanitizing bottle with us from the front desk. Perhaps if this was enforced that would be one less person in the way of using some of the equipment.On the plus side, the equipment is very usable and durable. I have never had a problem with the quality of what LA fitness has to offer in that sense. People generally re-rack their equipment as well which isnt as common at other gyms. I am also pleased that their music isnt very loud. Im not a fan of gyms playing music anyways since most people have headphones but at least its easy to block out.In terms of COVID guideline compliance, its pretty lax and in all honesty Im a fan. No one should be right next to you anyways and usually people will put their mask back on whenever theyre going from different parts of the gym. Mask guidance hasnt been enforced in the last two months but its definitely not surprising with the prevalence of people getting vaccinated/the demographic of people who come to this gym.Overall, 2 stars simply because they were prompt at taking my money and getting me access. I would encourage anyone to just invest in a smaller gym or even get really good home workout equipment since it would be more efficient than waiting for a squat rack to ever open up.

Love being back the gym! However, not everyone is wearing masks, even though the front desk employees tell you too along with clearly posted signage. There no accountability for those her arent. Employees nor managers are correcting this behavior and that to me is a problem. We just got to start coming back without reservations, but of course theres are always people who think the rules dont apply to them, but will be the first to cry about getting covid-19 and cause everything to shut down again. So LA please address the customers who arent following the rules, hanging out in large groups at the front desk chatting isnt really doing everything we can to help stop the spread. Customers of LA..... we need to do our part and follow the rules keep your mask on, if not for others do it for yourselves and your families!

Im a member of this chain and this is by far the worst LA Fitness Ive been to.

The gym recently went through a remodel that was overdue. I have to say it looks great. It is clean and they are constantly bringing in new equipment. I love all the machines and the sauna. The staff is also super helpful. Drake the manager was courteous in helping my friend get set up, its nice to deal with genuinely helpful people, not just trying to get over on you at the gym.

I cannot believe that you would be CHARGING my account while your business has been closed. This has to be illegal.

I love everything about the gym, & the recent remodel is awesome. My only concern is about the basketball court, the 2 hoops are off in height.. the hoop closest to the door might be 10ft (some say it’s taller than 10ft), and the hoop farther away is too short. Getting that fixed would be a major improvement.

Review №44

First off, I dont understand why LAfitness is charging full price membership for limited access to its facilities. My family paid for anytime access during operating hours prior to the pandemic. When they closed no charges were made. Fair enough. But now they reopened and members are limited because of Covid19. Paying full price for less than I signed up for is not cutting it.I cancelled my membership, got a verification by email for the cancellation but now Sydney, the operations manager at the Covington location keeps emailing me to up date my billing information so they can charge me. Pay for a membership I cancelled? I dont think so.Besides after the renovation the equipment that once stood center on the main floor is now crammed next to the racquet ball courts and still as filthy as ever. No social distancing there! No use of locker room, no basket ball, or court activity ....sure lets all pay full price for more inconvenience, and less functioning equipment. LAfitness if you are going to change and diminish membership terms and use then you need to reflect that change and usability in membership fees. You offer less, members should pay less.Stop charging full price for a scaled down membership and stop trying to charge for cancelled memberships.

Not the best place but convenient location and I was grandfathered in to $20/mo when they bought out my other local gym. Otherwise:• Don’t like weekend hours (later opening @8 and early close @8• many machines down or don’t work right that don’t get fixed. For months half their stair machines were broken•. Numerous nights each week groups heat the sauna to unusable temps and they won’t respond to complaints.•. Staff don’t know how to change the TVs! Seahawks were playing in a playoff game and they didn’t have it on any of the dozen TVs.Bottom line: if you can’t get a special deal, go 24 hr fitness!

Review №51

I would give this center a negative star if that was possible. Ive got absolutely worst treatment possible. I dont believe that anywhere in the US I got such an unprofessional service. I pretty much spent about $300 and was unable to use the facility not even once.In early July, before going on vacation I spoke to Derek W., the sales manager, who sold me the most expensive membership. I left for vacation thinking that I will be able to use the facility with my 3 years old daughter. Imagine my frustration when, returning there in August I was told that my daughter should actually be at least 12 years old to use it.After I expressed my disappointment I was told by the lady at the reception that the manager will contact me. Which they didnt.I ended writing to the LA Fitness Customer Service, and they gave me the phone number of the office of the operations manager Sydney. And noted that they also sent the note to her to reach me. She never did in the whole 10 days she had after my email exchange with the Customer Service.As I had the phone number I tried to reach Sydney myself. At my fifth attempt I was able to reach her. Not only didnt she apologize, but also she made it sound like that was my fault, as I had whole 3 days to cancel the membership getting all the money back. And since I was out o country that was probably my problem.Will never use LA Fitness and will advice my friends not to use it either.

Review №53

Totally unprofessional managers both (Drake & Sydney). These guys are rude and never trusted, as they will promise you everything just to encourage you to open new accounts with them and once you did so, then they will simply say that they have never promised any thing. After a couple months of account opening, He (the manager) has already charged me the annual fee as well as broke his promise and directly told me in a very rude way that he doesn’t care if I cancel my account. Sydney was even yelling at me, very unprofessional behavior with customers. This was indeed a very bad experience of mine with these two managers. Therefore, planning to switch to 24/7 fitness instead

The Manager Derk is rude and lier he is such a stupid person I have ever met. He dealt with us to open new accounts and charged us extra 8 dollar in order to play volleyball every weekend but after 2 months broke the deal and canceled our hours to play even we opened 8 new accounts and charged us 8 dollar more each months, which he should not have done this. Have a really bad experience with him.

I signed up for a 6 mo. membership and probably wont renew. Its crowded and members of all ages are sitting on the machines, not actually doing anything but looking at their cell phones or you have a pair of people on one machine for over a half hour socializing and once in awhile doing some lifting , sooo rude and annoying. Staff does nothing, there seems to be no management for that type of thing. Treadmills have a sign for no more than 20 min. if there is a line, but no signs for the other strength training equipment. I honestly have never experienced this at other gyms.

This is a heavily used LA Fitness, with significant wear on their cardio equipment (specifically their treadmills).

Been going on and off for over a year. Friendly staff overall. Gym and weights are kept clean. Busy in the afternoons and sometimes packed ( depends when you go of course). As long as you know what to do, you should go. 90% of the equipment is new and I pretty much pay $40 a month + no activation fee. Never requested a trainer before, cant talk about those. Place does look clean. Lockers look WAY better than most of the gyms I have been to. Sauna is kept clean and a good place to relax your muscles and socialize. Pool and the hot tub was clean for over 50 times I have used them. Would suggest going after 7pm. Not the best gym, far from the worst. Nice location too with plenty parking space.

Not too crowded, and great trainers. BUT They have equipment down for repair constantly, more than any of the other 4 local LA Fitness branches i go to, for example, theres one crunch bench thats been out of service for more than two months, and like I said, I go twice or more a week to the Covington branch.Other than that, pretty clean, great staff, quality clientele who are there to get some work done. 3 stars. Would be 5 stars if the equipment were up more often.

Review №68

Post remodel.....keep in mind this review is low for this location because its a little worse post remodel.....They removed about 35- 40 % of cardio equipment upstairs, (your going to have to wait) expanded the personal trainer area to about a 1/4 of the 1st floor ...dotted with KEEP OUT! Dont touch our stuff!! signsNext door to the trainer area, is.. white striped AstroTurf...what they are calling a free-something or other exercise area. ....reminds me of high school football practice field....It still has a fairly pronounced creeper vibe in the free weight area ( thats more about some of the clientele..not the location....) But tolerable for the most part..If I didnt have a multiple club membership Id be looking for another gym.....If youre doing single club membership, fairwood is a little bit better (no wifi) (South center is a bit worse)

The manager (Drek) in LA fitness Covington is a rude, unprofessional and lazy person. He doesn’t know how to deal with customers. He has no skills to be a manager. He doesn’t keep his words. We are about 30-35 members and most of us joined the club to play volleyball. Drek promised us to open 7 accounts and he will reserve Saturdays and Sundays from 6pm to 8pm. He did it for a few months and then told us that he no longer can let us play volleyball. We are going to close all our accounts and will ask for a complete refund. I don’t recommend LA to any of you specially the one in Covington.

The equipment is old, dated and the staff is rude and condescending. I complained to the training director about how the one and only weight scale in the facility is faulty because it sticks within a 10lb range of the actual weight. I physically showed him the issue and he walked away in frustration telling me to have a good night. I continued after him asking if they could get a new one and he responded by asking if I had one at home that I could use, then turned away again in frustration. I pay good money to be a member here and find that to be unacceptable.

This gym needs a remodel ASAP! A lot of the cardio equipment is beyond repair. Parts are no longer even made for a lot of the treadmills. There are too few elliptical machines to serve the members. The machines that are no longer fixable have been removed so there are now gaps in the line of cardio equipment upstairs. Members were told the remodel would begin in March/April and then it was May and then it was July and finally, it was September......not happening! There is no light at the end of the tunnel!

Review №77

I mainly go to this gym due to the convenient location (proximity to my house). Like some of the other reviews posted here, my main complaint is with the overall cleanliness. I generally try to avoid the locker room as a result, but sometimes you dont have a choice. The stair machines in particular look they havent had a good scrub down in months. Speaking of the stair master machines, they only have two, which seems a bit meager to me. I asked the lady at the front desk if they are planning to get more, and she replied that isnt in the budget. Aside from these issues, I do like the overall layout of the facility, and they pretty much have everything I need in the way of free weights and machines. Nice basketball court as well.

I joined LA Fitness in Covington a year ago so I could swim and use the hot tub. I am 89 years old. I used to swim a mile a day and LOVE swimming. Now I can do about ten laps and use the hot tub for my joints. When I joined I could walk into the pool water and start swimming as it was warm.After about 3 months, the pool got colder. I would get in and had goosebumps all over my arms and couldnt move fast enough to warm up so got out. Since then I toe test the water every time I go and its too cold for me to swim so have just used the hot tub. The water got colder right after it was closed for repairs and stayed cold.My daughter who goes with me has complained almost weekly about the pool water temperature. She was told it was 82 - 84 degrees, that there was a law that it couldnt go higher than 84, the temp is checked regularly, and theres nothing we can do.Now, I go to the Kent Meridian High School Pool 3x a week. Their water is 84 degrees I was told but it is warm enough for me to walk in with no goosebumps.I have talked to many, many women who belong here and they say they would use the pool if it wasnt so cold. Several women are Silver Sneakers members who dont swim because the water is too cold. Now, if this Fitness center is a partner with Silver Sneakers you would think theyd have a pool temperature conducive to those with disabilities and joint problems. Silver Sneakers pays for their membership so they can benefit from amenities like a pool. But, no, not this Fitness Club. Maybe they dont want these members or the elderly in their pool? Does discrimination come to mind?

Extremely terrible customer service. I was charged $278.64 5x for the FREE 3 day trial. And when i told them I didnt want to extend my membership I got the true run-around while they still tried to charge my card 2 more times. And during this whole ordeal, not once did anyone from the entire organization ask me if there was anything they could possibly do to try and keep me as a member. Not one person at all, from the front desk, to the Operations Manager, to the 3 different people I talked to at Member Services. And Member Services, now thats a totally different beast that we will post a review about down the road, but it wont be good either. So, in my opinion, I would stay away from LA Ftiness.

Ive been a member since December of 2012, And I just went in on Wednesday October 3rdfor my daily workout but decided to print out a guest-pass for my father. I went in and was rudely greeted by this lady at the front desk. I mentioned how I was a member and wanted to have my dad workout there, but he didnt want to buy anything that night.... all he wanted to do was use his guest pass and get out. The lady then took the paper out of his hand and told him You cant workout here if you dont buy anything... but obviously that didnt make sense so I replied back with How is he suppose to know if he likes LA fitness if he doesnt even get to try a free day. The lady then replied back with why do you have to be so rude! to me in which I was in absolute shock because I guess that is how all the new people respond to their customers here I then asked for a general manager. One was not available at the time, so I told the lady well while I wait I am going to workout...she then stopped me and said sorry you are going to have to take a seat or we will have to escort you out by the police! ***THE POLICE***** I know right, in shock yet? So we spoke to the GM there and she gave us some free pass cards so we dont have to EVER be greeted by the front desk lady... but I just wanted to share that with everyone here! THE PEOPLE BEHING THE COUNTER HERE ARE JUST RUDE AND DONT CARE ABOUT THE CUSTOMERS!

Review №94

LA Fitness is typical for the type of gym or workout location. Plenty of bikes, treadmills, weight equipment, racket ball, pool, etc. Unless you also hire a coach you are left on your own. Its very crowded most of the time and most of the people seem to just be copying other people. Rather than knowing what they are doing. The attitude with LA Fitness, as with most gyms, is hire a coach or we ignore you. I am quite introverted, so for me, Id rather find a quiet trail to walk and exercise with weights at home.

Good place to workout. The staff is friendly and the gym is clean. Unfortunately, many of the clients leave dumbbells all over the place, so the rack is a bit of a mess. They could asking use some more Hammer Strength machines.

Great facility. Equipment is clean and up kept. Sauna and pool and a nice extra piece as well.

I signed up for a 5 day guest pass to give it a try and no where does it mention “special hours.” So I go in at 5:30 Am and am told I only can go from 8am - 8pm. And if I sign up for a membership there is only a 3 day cancellation policy. That is ridiculous.

Worst gym I have ever seen. I left my 3 year old in kids club and just after 10 mins I was called downstairs because my son was crying. When I reached there, a lady was holding my son in her legs and yelling at him, she literally threw my son on ground. I just couldn’t believe my eyes. Another girl was trying to justify what happened in front of me. I could have argued but i just left silently. This is not at all professional gym and staff is highly arrogant.

The place is normally very busy, which is a very good indicator of a good facility. Are used to go there quite often, but kind of let it go lately. The training equipment is not the newest one, but functional. Really good swimming pool and sauna.
