Much like the city it resides in and the location within that city this is a sleepy, quaint venue. My commute took me by this every day so I although I saw months of construction I could tell from a far that the parking was pretty horrendous for a while. Not to be a gym snob, but I had actually never been to a non sport/ultra 24 until here. I actually didnt know there was levels below Sport, just that the few and far between Ultras and Supers to me were not worth the extra money. Im actually a member of Planet Fitness as well as 24. I use 24 for pool work in prep for triathlons and Planet for the relaxed atmosphere. Im all over the place with my commute and engagements so Ive literally been to dozens of gyms which is why 24 appeals to me. This is a much smaller location than its other nearby 24s. I found the equipment to be standard, but a bit crowded and due to the low ceilings it feels even smaller. Unlike others I found no downed equipment and due to the hours I come I cant speak to the highly popular spin classes. A bit too many mirrors imo. The lockeroom/bathroom is much of the same. Smaller. I liked the tall dryers make drying off faster, but I do wish there was some enclosure to each shower stall. There is a good # of lockers, but not enough space to actually shower were even 1/3 of them to be in use.

Okay, lets be real here, its an Active level club, so you really shouldnt expect much. But compared to the other Actives, this place is much more run down. Everything is in one big room. Ventilation isnt bad here, but they do lack good fans (though people who like to drip sweat probably wouldnt mind -- not that I mind sweating, I just hate being sweaty). And the TVs are pretty much useless -- too small and far from most cardio machines to be able to watch anything with captions (but I guess you can wear earbuds -- I just dont like things in my ear). But at the end of the day, its an adequate place to get some exercise.

Worst place Ive ever stepped foot into. Manager is a acts like he personally owns the gym. Not to mention he acts like a d*#kh@#d cop trying to intimidate you. The staff seem to always want to swindle you into upgrading your membership or buying something they have on display. Once they start talking to you about what they have to offer, not matter what you say to try and deter them, they dont let up which makes the experience extremely aggravating. Do not recommend this gym at all. Dont go there. Horrible

The staff here is amazing!!! I dont live in Encinitas anymore but still visit sporadically and they not only set me up on week passes (none of that membership pressure I get everywhere else) but also treat me like a friend--aka way better than my gym at home where Ive been a member for 4 years. They only have 1 squat rack and the free weights area is a little cramped (hence the 4 stars) but because of how friendly and helpful everyone is I wouldnt dream of going anywhere else.

I had an excellent experience with this gyms personal trainers, specifically Chassidy and Brendan. Id highly recommend anyone needing strength conditioning and/or corrective training to speak to these two. Ive been working out for several years and with one short workout they helped to completely ameliorate my shoulder pain when doing bench press among other things. If I lived in Encinitas full time I would definitely have hired Chassidy for additional sessions.

And it will be what you expect it to be, busy, on the cheap side and occasionally dirty. Of course, when compared to other options in the area, it works... if you can find a parking spot. Hey 24Hr Fit Marketing People!!! Dont cut and paste fake posts.. its tacky, better left blank... the post from Judysbook in October and InsiderPages in August are a little strange.

I like this gym, never that crowded, I can use any machine at any time. Only problem is that the lockers are so run down, and the showers stink like sewage. I literally have to take a shower at home after I shower after working out at the gym. Other than that, its a good gym.

Something closes at least one aspect of this gym a year. Last year the classes were canceled for months due to a water issue. This year the club closed for several days due to a water issue. Much better, nicer, bigger gyms for the same price nearby

Byron & his staff are helpful & proffesional, for the nominal monthly fee this is a great deal for a no frills place to work-out. I have always found the place to be clean & in off peak hours parking is readily avaiable.

Small, but has everything you need. Restrooms have lockers as well. 2 barbell benches 1 squat rack 1 assisted squat rack Plenty of free weights Id say its a decent gym for the active club level 24 franchise.

I have been requesting doors or curtains in the mens showers for years. They finally put up a single curtain and left the others open. How cheap can you get?
