Feel free not to wear your masks here. Even trainers are not wearing their masks mandated by the state. Over half of the people here are not wearimg them. I hope someone officials see this place. Where is the management!?

I truly dont understand how some people say negative things about this facility. The staff is outstanding, its rarely crazy busy, and its a very friendly feel. Olivia the GM is phenomenal. She does so much to ensure the well-being of her members. She is kind, hard-working, and always willing to help when needed. She is one of a kind. I strongly recommend giving her a call and meeting with her to get a membership.

Absolute best gym in the area! Olivia the General Manager gave me a very detailed tour of the place. She was very professional and very friendly. Helped me narrow down which membership is best for me without being pushy. It’s a very clean facility which is a huge plus! Definitely ask for her for your membership!

Love my gym, but I really wish they enforced the weights being put back in their places better. Some of the people that work out here tend to just leave weights anywhere they want. The staff is friendly though, and the place is always fairly clean. Props to the cleaning staff for always running around making things look nice

I made a VIP pass for my 15 year old son which I have for vacations every year. A sales person who is supposed to activate the pass asks me if my son is willing to buy a membership in the future or if Im using the pass to sneak him into the gym. I said that I have my son for 2 weeks this summer and I wanted to have him in the gym with me for 3 days this week and thats all. The sales person said that I have to buy a three day membership for him for $45 (my membership costs $27 a month).Thank you LA Fitness. Youve just lost a customer whos been with you for 17 years.

Great place to work out. It’s a lot cleaner now than before - I wish it stays that way. And no masks! Masks are optional. I can’t wear a mask when I’m deadlifting heavy.

Avoid LA fitness as this place is just try to get you in with false promises. We have got trainer for 6 months and the sales guy said that we will have 20 bonus session and our contract of 48 session. So, two paid session per week as part of our plan and 1 bonus session per week of training.The sales guy left the place after a month and now the LA does not honor original agreement.Feels like being scammed.

When LA was closed during quarantine, they still took money from my account for 3 months, and no one ever returned anything. some of the staff are rude. and I also do not understand why they are not allowed to use the closet for things, if someone steals my jacket or boots, LA is not responsible for this, but they are also not allowed to use the closet. very bad. Take off a star for taking money when it was closed, some staff is rude and 3rd star for a closed wardrobe

Our home location was closed and they refused to let us workout at this location even though we pay for guess privileges ($50/month!)The sign at Hanover Park told us to visit any other location while theyre closed for repairs, apparently not!

I went to sign up and get more information. I met with Olivia who was short and not really friendly at all. I was looking for the 0.00 initiation and she sais that stopped over a month ago. And they were not offering anything soon. I told her that their completion was offering the no charge and she shrugged. So I left. I was in the parking lot and called back in to talk to her and the gent that answers said she was too busy to talk that she had 3 or more people waiting. I said that I just left and she was not with anyone and there was no one that came in after I left. He said well shes too busy and shell have to call you back.Poorest customer service I have ever had anywhere.Covid or not.

Review №18

At the gym now and barely anyone has a mask covering their noses. And then you got people just wearing it on their chins. And to top it off we got someone on the elliptical on the second floor, overlooking the space below with no mask whatsoever, could potentially be spreading covid to everyone below 🙄. Makes you not feel bad for SOME of these gyms who were shut down for months

Very Unprofessional and unfriendly being at the position of General Manager Olivia Cook. Took her 20 mins to come out from the phone call to attend for just signing me up as fresher, and then being unprofessional! Only telling about the costly packages until I showed her whats online and how can she enroll with the price that I want. Im gonna cancel my membership here.

Review №23

LA fitness is a horrible place to work out .They’ll promise many things and you won’t be able to find that same person anymore . You will be dealing with new people and new rules and no one will believe you .(Olivia is so rude and didn’t have a sense of customer service )DO NOT USE LA and if you became a member, DO NOT BUY TRAINING SECTIONS , they’ll scam you the worst way possible.

Its a spacious gym. I switched over after planet fitness was closed for whatever reason and I got a guest pass to la fitness. I believe that the moment I walked in I decided that I wasnt going back to PF. This gym is cleaner and they actually take your Temp before you can go in. There are a lot more machines available to get what you need done. So far so good.

Gym is fine, but be ready to be locked in for life. Apparently the manager just happens to never be there when you need to cancel. “Let’s hope people get so annoyed by trying to cancel that they just pay forever to never come in!” Awesome business plan!! I may declare bankruptcy just to win.

I love coming to train at La FITNES because? because you have spaces for all needs, functional, crossfit, racquetball, volleyball, basket, spinning, pool, sauna! incredible, that if not all have sauna and racquetball for that you must register completely so you enjoy all the LA FiTNESS nationwide.

What a great facility and staff!! I was on the road during prep for my first season and needed to find a GREAT gym. I was definitely pleased when Ray picked up the phone to tell me that not only were day passes available but he would love for me to be his guest! What outstanding service and a clean, fully stocked facility. I could not be happier that I didn’t have to skip or skimp on my workouts just because I wanted to travel and see family over the long weekend. Thank you for making that possible Ray and the staff at LA Fitness!!

Review №33

Great location with everything you need for a great workout. They have a three lane lap pool, second floor devoted to cardio machines, ab space, TRX, weights, racquetball courts (not in use during covid). They keep things sanitized, they check everyones temp as they come in the door. My only complaint is they have Fox News playing in the locker rooms.

I still use this LA Fitness location but for me, there is one drawback and it is the temperature of the sauna. I am a true sauna enthusiast and I sauna every day. Today I spoke with Anthony and Samantha regarding the consistent 180-degree temp. which is a tad too hot for most of us IF you want to spend time there relaxing. Also, the sauna needs an upgrade because the benches are in need of repair or replacement.Samantha, the manager seemed open to discussing the sauna with upper management.Anthony is a true gem. He really went above and beyond to respond to me = to listen, to understand and WANTED to help resolve my concerns. He is a young man who understands what true customer service is. I hope he becomes a manager some day...

I just got my jacket stolen. Yep, day before Christmas Eve. It seems the same person has done this 3 times. When I brought it to the attention of the person in front. She smirked and said we can’t do anything. Either she is apart of the problem or not a part of the solution. She didn’t want to give me her managers info either.3 people had their jackets stolen in less than 4 days. They don’t care about it. Hey but they had Santa Claus going around at 5:30am saying hi to everyone.Nice job LAfitness. Thanks for caring about your customers. Lifetime here I come.

Great gym overall. Best priced place for everything they offer. My only complaint is their weekend hours. Saturday and Sunday are 8 am - 8 pm. Some people get up early on weekends and some people like to workout late on weekends. Would be 5 stars if the hours were better!

Review №49

Not bad. Usually plenty of cardio equipment to pick from. Weight machine and free weight area is where I give the 2 stars. Feels crowded that I don’t even bother using free weights. Machine variety is decent but some machines need the cables tightened to get better range of motion. Leg machines are always available.

Over all, I do like this gym. Nice equipment and great classes are offered. Enjoy working out here. But I will say that the front desk employees greeting should show a little more enthusiasm. I think the only employees that actually greet and are nice with the members are at the Fit Fresh Juice Bar. Especially Daniel, hes very awesome

Staff doesnt do much here. Its 6 am and dumbbell racks are half empty! I have to wander and look for dumbbells that are spread all over the place. Same thing with plates. And its usually like that. I dont remember if I ever saw anyone leaving the front desk to do something else than going to the restroom. Disappointing...

Love how big it is! Love that they have a swimming pool, sauna kids club, etc. Everything looks new and no broken machines. Also love how every single cardio machine has a TV. Just wish it was open a little longer or 24-7. Oh well, cant have everything. Also has a nice juice/snack bar.

Review №63

LA Fitness has a lot to offer for its price. I signed up primarily for the pool and the free weights. There are plenty of free weights and machines. Although a lot of people are there at prime time (right after work), most people cycle through the equipment pretty quick so wait time is very low. The pool is a little cloudy, but it serves its purpose just fine for lap swim.The sauna was a bonus I didnt know about.

Review №64

Been a patron for 4 years now, good location and facility. Cordial people- but horrible internal controls. I left my weight lifting belt because the janitor got locked out and everything gets stolen. Managements needs better internal controls because they always try to avoid liability. No one likes leaving their stuff behind intentionally.Another instance I told them to hold on to a water bottle since my colleague left it and they trashed it. Not sure why it is so hard for them to understand that inevitably people will forget their stuff and they need to be better at these things..

I had to block LA fitness from charging my bank account because they would not cancel my contract.

Review №75

Do not get a membership here. The place is filthy and they dont maintain anything. The air conditioning in the group class room has been broken for 3 weeks during the hottest time of the year. The exercise mats are always filthy and ripped. The floor in the group class room is never cleaned. There were blood spots on the floor for weeks. The locker rooms are littered with garbage and the paper towels are never refilled. They have been offering the same group classes for the past 4 years without updating. There is a crime problem in the parking lot so dont every leave anything of value in your car. In other words, dont waste your money on this place.

I’ve been going to this gym for the past 2 years. It used to be a great gym, but not anymore. They charge you even if u freeze you’re membership. Only reason I was still going was cause it was the closest from where I reside. After u cancel you’re membership, they will still charge you for the next couple months for no reason at all which is very petty. They close early on the weekends and the bathrooms are always dirty. They will lie to you in order for u to sign up with them.

What terrible service. I came to visit my sister and niece and they invited me to workout with them one day. I printed the guest pass and two managers kept forcing me to join. Im already a member of another gym where I live, but they didnt care. They told me I couldnt work out there until I listened to all their membership options. Isnt a fee guest pass one to see if you want to work out there? Then see the membership options????? Terrible terrible first impression! My sister called them earlier in the week too because one of their employees was smoking cannabis in the parking lot in their work shirt. Well she is no longer a member now because of the attitude they gave her too! If you want to build a reputation and clientele, dont follow LA Fitness example and for sure dont pay money to go here.

The maintenance crew, especially in the mornings are horrible. The guy changes the garbage bags, but there are never any paper towels refilled. In general they dont do much. They just walk around.

Review №84

This gym is great - until you hit the lockers. Like all former Ballys locations, the equipment is old, but the location is airy and bright. I have not noticed any broken-down equipment, or out of order signs.The staff has been very nice. Ive only been there on weekends, so I havent had to deal with the daytime and/or weekday staff. Nor have I had any problems, so I havent truly put the staff to the test. But Ill reiterate, the ones I have talked to were very nice.The lockers are disgusting. The toilet section smells like stale urine. The floor is hilly, leaving puddles on the floor that make it slippery and treacherous. The lockers themselves are a hundred years old, and are beat up and rusty. I would not recommend this place for someone looking for a gym.

Lets see. Its usually overcrowded. Not enough bench presses. Not open 24-7. Not enough clips for all the bench and squat bars. For some reason there is always a few employees standing up front doing nothing. Maybe have them walk around and clean up the place since no one else does. Will be going elsewhere soon.

Salesmen are sketchy.Tldr dont come here. There are better gyms nearby

Review №91

Its a good gym which does offer alot from treadmills, ellipticals, stationary bikes, free- and machine- weights, and classes. It provides what i need. The staff always greets me when i enter and sometimes say good bye when i leave. My biggest issue are people who sit on machines between reps ON THEIR PHONE! i recently witnessed a guy on the hamstring curl machine for at least 10 minutes, purely on his phone. The staff should walk around ensuring that people are using the machines in a timely matter. I like to get in, get my work out done, and leave. And while there are signs in the bathrooms about cell phone usage being prohibited, i see women on their phone constantly. I feel very uncomfortable and am force to use a bathroom stall for changing. When they built this facility, it would have been wise to add changing stalls. It would be nice if staff monitored phone use in the locker rooms.

Review №93

I’d give this a zero if I could. Such squalor. Good luck finding free weights. They’re thrown across the gym, missing or just not put back in their respected place. The carpet is all torn up, the tricep extension rope is shredded to a string. They do not have enough weights for their classes, so they come take the free weights off the rack. No etiquette from members. The 20 year old Managers do not care.
