This gym makes me feel good in myself again and theyre just doing their job of teaching newbies, so theyre going to give you advice on how to build confidence. The gym is sterile and has various types of machines used for workouts. But if youre looking to go here, I promise youre going to be their happy customers.

I am very happy working with her. She has challenged me to go beyond my mental limitations. She makes it fun to sweat when she motivates you with smile, make it pretty, just about the time youre ready to pass out! She is fun, motivational, knowledgeable, committed to her clients and a first rate professional. Her focus for my fitness is to help me meet my personal goals. When I do the Paris marathon in April, I will have her to thank!

I did personal training with Niel, and I highly recommend him. I have never been more sore in my legs and abs after our intense workouts. I felt like I was improving considerably, so its too bad I had to leave SF. The gym is also great, with a wide variety of machines, squat racks, free weights and cardio.

Review №15

Tried it out for a few days. Large facility with a lot of options and was nicer than most gyms but not nice enough to justify the cost. Didnt end up joining in the end. Cleanliness could be improved. Pool looked cloudy. A lot of gym/equipment felt dated. The restaurants on site werent very good.

First of all, before I say anything else, I want to be clear that going to an upscale gym like Equinox makes a lot of sense if you make use of the membership and you can afford it. The Sepulveda club is quite a bit different from the Santa Monica club, and I will talk about both clubs.The Sepulveda club has lots of amenities - plenty of high-quality classes, every possible kind of exercise equipment, sauna, jacuzzi - even a health-oriented restaurant with linen tablecloths and candles on the tables. A big advantage of the Sepulveda club is that you can stay at the club all day without spending very much on parking - and you can even find free parking on the street if you dont mind walking. I think the biggest downside of the Sepulveda club is that they keep having events in the club for people who arent members. Things like sales meetings, birthdays, bar mitzvahs, charity events, and seminars. I would think that they make enough money from memberships that they dont need to keep renting out the club to outsiders. I wish that they could at least publish information about these events so that I would know to stay away from the club when this stuff is happening.In contrast, the Santa Monica club doesnt have as many amenities. You can buy food there, but they dont have normal things like coffee, Coke, or Gatorade - just a bunch of ultra healthy things that I have never heard of. One of the nicest things about the Santa Monica club is its vibe - it feels friendly, comfortable, and creative. I think the biggest downside of the Santa Monica club is the cost of parking. The first two hours are free, but if you want to stay longer, the parking can be very expensive - unless you dont mind walking to one of the big Santa Monica parking structures.

Review update: October 2021I’m lowering my review from 5 stars to 2 stars because of the locker room: almost every single locker is broken and requires you to get staff to come and manually unlock for you.Sometimes the staff is nowhere to be found, so you’re stuck waiting around for some indeterminate amount of time in the hope that an employee walks by to help.When you check on when this is going to be fixed (all they have to do is replace dying batteries), the managers have no answer.Just unacceptable at this price to have this significant of an inconvenience on one of the main parts of the gym (i.e., the literal locks on the lockers).Only reason this place gets more than one star is because of the expansive weight room.

I came in for a free three day trial + free personal trainer session with Patrick Mora. It was a great session that really started my fitness journey. Patrick was very motivating and supplemented the main exercises with stretches and tips. The staff was very helpful and not pushy at all. I would definitely recommend the three day trial and ask for Patrick!

Its top. Indoor pool, restaurant and bar inside, indoor basketball court, hair salon, small cafe valet service. Its a really chill experience. Oh, and they eucalyptus towels for you to use.Theres much more to it, the vibe is chill, people are kind when it comes to sharing space. Trainers are always there to help with any basic questions.You do need a special membership tier in order to access this location apart from a regular Equinox.

This is one of my favorite Equinoxes in Los Angeles. Although it’s not the closest one to me, I will drive the extra miles to come here. Huge selection of equipment that is not cramped together. The staff is wonderful! Always smiling, courteous, and they genuinely seem to care for the facilities.Steam room, sauna, pool, jacuzzi, and even. Roof top with tires and some non traditional training equipment. This places gets 5 stars.

Two weeks here was enough to make me leave Equinox after 4 years as a member.I decided this month to upgrade my membership back to the Destination Pass I originally had because I wanted to have access to a club close to my new office for the next few months. When I toured Sports Club LA, however, the membership manager was wholly disinterested in showing or telling me about the club. She did such a bad job show me around and tell me about the club that one of the trainers at the club had to give me another tour during my first day because I didn’t know where anything was or even most of what was in the building.This is also apparently the only club that does not validate, but the membership managers don’t share that information on the tour. I explicitly asked the woman who conducted my tour about the length of the validation period, and she assured me that there wasn’t a time limit to worry about with Equinox’s validation, and that I just needed to get a stamp on the way out. That worked fine for most of my two weeks there but on the last two days, I was told that I was not allowed to get a validation. When I challenged the front desk attendant about the policy and about the fact that the membership manager told me I was going to be validated, the first woman was rude and snapped that the membership associate was wrong: the second attendant was sardonic, but he confirmed that “the membership managers don’t really tell about that because it doesn’t sound good to new members.”So not only does this mean I am essentially stuck with an additional $40-$60 a month on my membership fee, but an employee at the location also literally confirmed that the equivalent of the Equinox sales team there is deliberately disassembling when signing new members. That, in and of itself, is grounds for a complaint for consumer rights violation.The locker room staff has also been incredibly rude.The gym is beautiful and has nice amenities, but the fact that I was quite literally lied to by a sales team associate, and that the lie is a common tactic to sign new members at this location, makes me wildly uncomfortable and distrustful that the brand cares about its members.

Review №27

UPDATE: I have cancelled my membership.For what this gym purports to be, it is rough around the edges. Equinox markets itself as a top shelf gym/club experience, and their prices reflect that. This particular facility has a lot of great amenities and looks amazing at a glance. However, a closer look reveals that maintenence is always behind; you will often find something broken or in need of cleaning.The massage spa is entirely overpriced. Even though they accept outside appointments, no discounts are given to members, including executive members (there is a one time introductory discount for members though I am not sure this is offered all the time).Staff service is mediocre. This place should be on the level of a 5 star hotel, but the service level feels more like any 24 hour fitness gym.

Hands down the best gym that I have ever been to, and you definitely get what you pay for (secured parking, spacious locker room, plenty of workout equipment available w/o waiting around forever). Professional and courteous staff, the place is always clean, and it has a wonderful vibe. Highly recommended.

I have never been around so many vile, distasteful, superficial, and racist people in my life dont get me wrong the gym is awesome but the people in the gym spoil the experience. Not racist but my biggest issue was the middle easterners in here they have absolutely no respect for anyone let alone themselves they are extremely territorial and aggressive and downright disrespectful they have no sense of decorum at all constantly stare at you in the locker room with looks of distaste. I was an executive member private locker area was nice but due to their bizarre behavior and lack of good hygiene some of them are living proof money doesnt buy you good sense, class, or character. I dont get why people are stealing the Kiehls product, q tips, toothpicks towels and hair dryers in the executive locker room and we had fruit non executive members and I have witnessed some trainers coming in and take fruit from the executive locker room it baffles me that people with means are stealing insignificant things thats when you know you have issues as a human being. I cannot believe I paid almost 400 a month to deal with this craziness. As I have said before the gym is great but the people in here have serious issues I dont know if it warrants the price of admission.

This location is huge, absolutely massive. So much equipment and so many options as far as yoga, cycling, sauna, swimming, salon, lounge with wifi, snack bar, etc. Two hours free parking with validation. Surprisingly helpful staff considering what a scene it is with celebs and athletes who work out here.

Absolutely not worth the upcharge. Location has 1 leg press. Rude, mostly Persian, members. Front desk staff hit or miss. Showers smaller than other locations. Weird layout of amenities in bathrooms makes for inconvenient moving around when getting ready.. ie, lotion, razors, dryers, plastic bags and towels all in different locations. If your a young creative or entrepreneur looking for an energetic experience this isnt the gym for you.

They kick out BLACK PEOPLE who support or President. Thy kicked out Rev. Jesse Lee Peterson and banned him for life after a white employee overheard him express his support for President Trump. Employee named Scott, allegedly demanded the pastor left the gym, telling Peterson that his membership was terminated effective immediately.“Scott,” who claimed he was a manager at the gym, refused to provide an explanation to Peterson. “Scott” also refused to allow Peterson to talk to anyone else.

My brother in law would rant and rave about this place and begged me to join... I was about to join until they kicked him out for sharing the basketball court. This is unheard of. Every basketball court is meant to be shared. As an attorney it sounds like discrimination to me.

They care nothing about clients, place is run like an ignorant corporate natzi factory camp with a bunch of 20 something year old so called managers with no education desperate to push their insignificant weight around, they have incompetent abusive people running the place including the so called kids club run by a vulgar self interested woman Casey who gets paid to take care of her own child and basically steps on everyone else.Rude with no skills on how to treat others except to take their money.

This place used to be called sports Club LA, it got bought out by Equinox recently.Let me tell you what a horrific place this club has turned into so that you do NOT waste your money.First of all I am talking about sports club in LA on Sepulveda in west LA not in century city. We are NOT allowed to try the century city one unless we up grade to a $235 a month fee.second of all when sports club got bought over by equinox, they closed down the locker rooms with only few showers, OK we put up with it, then they closed a private small work out room where you could hide and not have to mix with the plastic surgery LA freaks and the horny old men! Now that room will be converted into an office I was told, OK so less place to work out.Then the showers are filthy, hair and soap scum every where, disgusting! The floors are dark and nasty and burn your feet unless you have shoes on.The pool is nasty, its yellow with particles floating around every where, I am NOT sure what is there but its dirty and has NOT been cleaned for ever!The membership fees has been increased from $170 to $190, not sure what Equinox members pay but the la sports club members got an increase on their fees while the services got cut in half by closing the showers, and construction all over the clubOK Listen Equinox business office: HOW ARE YOU GOING TO RAISE FEES, IF YOU ARE NOW DELIVERING 50% OF YOUR SERVICE AND SPORTS CLUB LA AKA EQUINOX WEST LA IS NOW UNDER CONSTRUCTION?????The staff is VERY rude now, the old timers have stopped coming, the mature, older and business minded people, Millionaires, actors and celebs are all GONE replaced by 20 YEAR OLD TEENY BUMPERS EVERY WHERE!The feel of this place is like a 24 hours fitness which is riding the coat tail of the old sports club LA!Gone are the days of the clean gym with lots of equipment, now your in a place that is like 24 hour fitness yet charges $190 a month....!!WHY ARE YOU CHARGING SO MUCH FOR A FILTHY, DIRTY AND UNDER CONSTRUCTION GYM???Stay away from this place and save your money, this place SUCKS and its dirty.There should only be a call to OSHA and the Health Dept cause soon some one will catch something!!!1The equipment are not being cleaned, its dripping with peoples sweat, yes perfect gym dont you think?worth that $190 or the executive BS rate!I spoke with the manager/assistant manger and they said so go else whereand thats what I am going to do!SAVE YOUR MONEY, THIS DIRTY LOW CLASS 24 HOUR FITNESS LOOK ALIKE IS NOT WORTH $190 A MONTHGo else where and save your money!

Review №53

$225 per month for the basic membership, a nice fitness club, mostly nice people and clean, tons of middle easterner dudes acting like they own the place in the evenings, had a billing issue, suggested I would cancel, they seemed to care less, very arrogant upper management, Jennifer Recinos. Very few younger women, perhaps due to price. $2700 per year. Even dance clubs know to charge the men more and the women less. Cafe tries to give you the smallest dinner portions they can get away with and they just raised their prices. Dont valet your car, they will damage it in the garage on that incline. 3rd party valet company, All they do all day is talk dirt about the members, in spanish. 2 of 5 stars overall.Update: this review caused my membership to mysteriously expire... They canceled it, lol. I Couldnt be more happier now at David Barton Gym on Bundy & Olympic, $75 per month, free parking garage, awesome younger crowd, better music, easy going staff, great showers, classes, ect.
