LA Fitness has gone down the drain. Ive had my LA Fitness pass for about a month to only be introduced to extremely low amounts of equipment for their machines. Not to mention trainers that claim false accusations on gym goers that take 1 step into their training area to borrow weight that they arent using. Ive been to countless gyms over the years and have to say that LA Fitness is the worst when it comes to making compromises to the way they run their gyms as long as youre paying Thousands of Dollar for the trainers (this was said by a manager at this location.)If you are serious about the gym I recommend Golds, 24 hour, or World Gym. Stay away from LA Fitness!!!

Horrible attitude from staff wanted to believe it was a bad day went back again and again and their attitudes have just shown ugly people inside. Disrespectful and illogical workers. The gym isnt all that either. Limited amenities and super busy with patrons. Did meet some good people here but will be moving to another Gym for peace of mind.

I need to keep my body in shape and resilient so I maintain what I can here with LA Fitness top locations are Hollywood/ Vine, Riverside Arlington and Pasadena.

They will keep charging you even when you leave. Even a 5$ planet fitness is cleaner than this place. The trainers pressure old ladies and families to sign up which is sad

This is good gym to workout definitely better than my regular LA Fitness close to my home. They have lot and lots of cardio machines but lack in free weights area. There are plenty of different machines to workout but this gymgets really crowded even early mornings.if you like quick workouts like this isn’t the ideal place as you may have weight for your turn to use either machine or free weights. Overall gym is big wide open and clean.

I cancelled this membership with my wife over a year ago and somehow I’m still getting charged. They cancelled my wife’s account successfully but never cancelled mine and keep calling me to update my billing information and sending me emails. I have tried calling to speak with Vanessha (Operations Manager) and no one picks up the phone!!! This business is running a scam operation!!!

FIX YOUR HOURS PLEASE 🙏love the gym it’s a great space, but go back to pre-covid hours. LA fitness is charging members the same fees as prior to Covid yet we have access to lesser gym time.

A bunch of scam artists. All the reviews are the personnel hyping themselves up. Even 24 fitness has better customer service and gym. Go to 24 or Golds gym.

The gym had charged us when reopened back in June of last year, than they shut down again. Supposedly we were gonna get the that month after they open again. Now they reopened and charged me again for the coming months . I wanted to cancel the membership, so I went to the gym and they couldn’t do it because the manger was not there and she is only there until 3 . I went the day after at 2 and she still wasn’t there . They charged me the month and canceled the membership with no Refunds, manger name is vanassa who had the worst attitude and is not professional with her time or anything . Staff are great but are managed by a terrible manger who literally cares more about money than the customers of this facility.

Masks are only enforced at the door. Beyond that, employees let it slide when they see anyone with their masks down or blatantly missing for no reason. Glad they are open but masks need to be enforced if we want to keep it open.

I had an incident occur with organized theft that was beyond anybodys control, and their manager was very accommodating to help me in terms of getting the security footage. They were also accommodating once when I needed to lower my membership level. I work out here multiple times a week, its a great atmosphere, great location, great equipment, great staff, and theres also a sauna.

Great gym, spacious, well ventilated, good machines, BUT please please do something about the roaches. I’ve seen one too many and it really just makes the space feel less sanitary. In the last few months I saw one in the studio room as I was laying down on the floor, a couple near the bathroom, one on the wall by the stair master. Please call the exterminator!

L A FITNESS is a scammer. My 10 cash credit on my account was stolen during the lockdown. I usually pay in cash and leave the change as a credit on my account. There will be another lockdown in mid July and I am hoping that they do not bill my credit card on file since I paid in full up to July 27 2020.

Hands down, one of the cleanest LA Fitness locations in all of LA. I love it for how clean the gym is. Its also one of the largest LA Fitness Ive found across LA, so when you come there is always plenty of room to workout. Surprisingly, for its size there it is never over crowded. Parking is a bit of a pain, because you really have to park and walk. But its mostly free if you park in the garage just behind the plaza where this gym is located its free for the first 2 hours. And I cant stress enough how clean this location is from the locker rooms to the gym equipment all the way down to the floors. Most gyms have a smell or dirty in some of the common areas but this one is well kept.

As someone who never had a gym membership before outside of college gyms, LA Fitness is very affordable. Furthermore, Chris and David were wicked helpful with breaking down the options for sessions with a personal trainer, which I realized I desperately need.

Cool gym, I go here several times a week! Free parking, they validate. All new weights and machines. This spot used to be an AMC movie theater and was since converted into a gym. Upstairs restroom.s sauna endurance machines such as bikes and stair machines. Downstairs weights and resistance machines. Basketball court, spinning room and a room for classes.

It is located in nice area two steps away from Americana. Parking is not a problem at all ( except weekends). Place is big and open. Very many choices of equipment. Staff is friendly. The only problem I have is I see dust everywhere, on floors & on machines. I dont wanna breath it so may be it should be cleaned more often but when there is no people around please.....Thanks for architects too for beautiful project . Building looks welcoming.

Marcelo the General Manager, is no good at sales and tried to up mark me on a false upgrade. This guy was very rude and completely unhelpful. Although I will give it a two star because the gym itself is a decent facility. I would suggest LA fitness to start doing customer care training with their employees. ✌️

Enjoyed my visit at this gym. Impressed at how tidy the weight room was. Plates were not laying around randomly, they were actually racked. Too bad its too far from me. Kudos to the staff and the patrons for keeping this organized.

Gym is nice, its new. There is no swimming pool, racquetball court, basketball court, or a juice bar; which is totally fine with me, since I dont use it anyways. The only reason why I gave it 4 stars is because of parking. You only get 90 minutes. They seriously have to make it at least 2 hours.

This is the best gym in Glendale for the price. Spacious workout equipment, great variety, CLEAN, basketball court, and no waiting for cardio machines. The staff is great (theyll call you way too much, so be careful giving out your phone number unless you plan to join immediately). 5 stars for being better than my old gym and having a basketball court.

Wanting i like at LA Fitness are these amazing Zumba Instructors, one of my few favorites are these people, Agnes Macatlang which is always at Fremont, but before she used to teach at Glendale, another is Jackielyn, which teaches at Glendale Brand, and then these new instructors, like barely new, her name is Jona, which i think is exceptional, she has a great moves, great music and a great attitude, these trio are all Amazing, La Fitness are blessed to employed them.

Update Sept 2021: lots of people here not wearing masks, without even a mask on their chin. Arrogant loud guys walk around shirtless. Staff here see this and do nothing.Its been almost a month with no A/C here. Even at 6AM, its brutal. Theyve placed 2 fans in the entire gym- not nearly enough. This doesnt surprise me, as every LA fitness Ive attended regularly takes forever to get anything repaired. Youd think something like a broken A/C during a heat wave would be a liability this company wants to correct ASAP.Update: September 8, 2017: The AC was fixed for a short time, and now its not working again. Still no fans set up in hot/unventilated areas. Makes me hate this place. Im here at 6am, I cant imagine what its like mid-day. Go somewhere else if you can.

NEW TRAINERS to Glendale branch!!! BEWARE!!! DAVID O’CONNELL, the fitness director at this branch, makes random false allegations against trainers for no reason(maybe he’s depressed, or mental, I honestly don’t know). Just beware. Look out for his assistant Chris, if he doesn’t like you he’ll muster up something to smear your name. Bunch of cowards.

Great place to workout for the price!!! Equipment is nice and new and theres 2 floors to workout. First floor are weights, group classes and spin while second floor has all the cardio machines and locker rooms.The facility validates parking for 2 hours so you dont have to pay a penny to park! I did go over one time and I ended paying a dollar, my fault for being on the phone that day.There are definitely more guys working out there and when I first joined, I was a little intimidated. After a couple days, it didnt matter. You realize everyone keeps to themselves and wants to just do their own thing.Mornings are the times I go to the gym so thats the only time I can tell you how it is there. Of course, the earlier you arrive the emptier it is. I use the cardio machines first and you never have to wait because they have so many. Once I finish I go to weights, itll start getting busy around 9 or 10. Even so, theres no long wait for any machines, if any at all!Glad I found this place and would recommend to anyone who doesnt need anything fancy just a place to do their workouts at a great price!!!

Review №62

This gym is ok. It is very big and lots of machines. Free weight area is a disaster, however. Weights are scattered around and few benches to use. Members dont clean up or re-rack. That being said I can usually get a good workout here. You might have to improvise as it can get busy. Also, parking is only 2 hours. Good for most but not everyone.

This location has been having repetitive problem with AC system at least 2-3 days every single month in the past 4 months that I have been attending the location.This is a direct violation of Californias Occupational Safety and Health Administration temperature, clean air circulation and humidity building codes. Also the hours are very short, specially for weekends, and they tend to turn off the lights for Indoor Cycling room as well as the training room for miscellaneous workouts.

Review №66

Its a newer gym. But, the a/c seems to always go out so it gets a bit too hot and humid in the open area than it probably should be. But, for the most part its a solid gym. They could clean the equipment a bit. I see them vacuum but I have yet to see anyone wipe down the treadmills or anything. They should be disinfecting that stuff too. They might be doing it. But, I got at different times and have never seen it. Could be cleaner.

Parking is a issue, unauthorized charge on my credit card for personnel training and never got a call back. Very unprofessional. Ive been a member since 2009. Although I did call it in to report the incident. My personal trainer is great, but could have done without the unauthorized charge, especially after setting it up with corporate.

Though equipments and the facility is fairly new, the air condition is always out of order and trash cans are over flowing. No matter how many times you complain, they dont get it fixed once and for all!! There is one fan which is dragged between basketball court and group gym. They dont even provide additional fans!! Sars are for Raul and Griffin who teach Zumba there! They rock!

Thought about getting a membership here, so I signed up for a 1-month pass. I was told when I signed up that I could cancel the pass within the first 5 days if it turned out that I didn’t like the club. Here I am 2 days after getting the pass, and now the club I opened the pass with is telling me that I can’t cancel it with them because they only have one person on staff who can handle cancellations and that she’s only available Monday - Friday during normal office hours, and that I have to come in in person to do it (you know, despite the fact that I have a job). The best part of it all is that it is CURRENTLY Friday during normal business hours, and I have the day off, but they still can’t do it because apparently the one and only person who can do this on weekdays also happens to be out of the club today, so it turns out that I actually CAN’T cancel it even during the Monday-Friday period that they tried to give me.All in all, the club seems to be run by people who are wildly irresponsible and who have little regard for working with customers for anything other than collecting a deposit and then treating clients like burdens.Every single part of my experience with this club has been negative. Even GETTING the pass was like pulling teeth, so I don’t know why I’m surprised that they’re completely incapable of handling a simple cancellation.

Why arent the same amount of classes offered as Universal location or Sherman Oaks locations. And why isnt there a variety of teachers and types of classes at 5:45p and 7:00p times during the week. I love Zumba but not every night! Lets get some Bodyworks classes during those times.

This space is amazing. I mean it is really a nice open space. I work our regularly and I have had memberships with other clubs, including Las Vegas. It seems all clubs have their ups and downs. What always bothers me is the locker rooms and the neatness of the gym itself. I like to be able to find a dumbbell without searching around for it and I like a nice clean locker room with a regular attendant there wiping things down. People who use the weights for the most part do not have gym etiquette. They use the weight and put it back in the wrong place like a 15 pound in a 45 pound spot.As for the locker room, there was a paper towel dispenser but it was removed for a blow dryer, not I cant wipe of the a sink before use it.

Review №83

Overall a very good gym. Very new and clean. Lots of redundancy for their machines. They have two squat racks and two power racks, which is a lot more than most of the gyms in the area (but I wouldnt mind if they added some extras). Biggest critiques are that they dont offer towel service and that they dont have curtains in the showers, but thats about it.Update: as the gym has gained membership, getting into one of the squat racks/power racks has become stressful and difficult during peak hours. They really ought to rethink the lack of free weight availability. There are rows of recumbent bikes that are hardly in use, yet the squat racks/power racks are nearly always in use.

Parking across the street is a real hassle, adds another 10-15 mins to each workout coming and going. The place is newish and the equipment is very nice and usually well kept. The patrons are real jerks - the standard smelly armos and mexics. There is some asian eye candy, but for the most part the patrons are low class. Buy hey it could be worse, could be 24hour fitness haha.
