Its July 25, 2015 Saturday and its LA Fitness in Fountain Valleys Opening Ceremony Celebration Party from 10am to 6pm. I got here about 7am when it open and I see things are setting up. I got a mailer for free gift (you can get an energy drink, badge holder necklace, or small towel). I asked about it at 9:30am and I wanted a towel but the towels wont be in at 10am. So I saw other few members having more than one orange colored small towels free. So, I wondered about that but didnt ask/complain since its nothing in my books. When it got to 10am I asked for a schedule of what is happening and they didnt have one so, I dont know what time things are happening. The advertisement online says there is going to be painting, free food, giveaways, lime truck, zumba class outside and etc but didnt give much details on that. I asked about what lime truck is and of that was free food. They answered they dont know. I asked about any great deals on membership add on since my parents want to join if its cheap. They said they dont have any special membership prices since this gym is new. The advertisement also said the ribbon cutting ceremony starts at 10am but it started at around 10:35am. The free food was not like a meal which the LA Fitness staff had ramped about. It was just small sample snack cookies, guacamole with chips from Rubios, tiny sample of energy drink, granola bar type, small portion without rice of chicken and steak from Pickup Sticks, LA Fitness cake from ribbon cutting, and small portion of salad from Applebees. They all came out in the basketball court at different times which nobody knows when they were coming. There was a repair notice on the front door and there was no announcements that food has come so, it looked like there are going to be no food. You just had to be curious to come in to find out there is free food. I had stayed there till 1pm and I didnt know if there are going to be free food later this day. I went outside and found that lime truck does serve food but you need to pay for it not free. So, this day would be better if there was a schedule of what is happening. If the free food was just tiny portion snack sample then they should have brought more of a meal like 6-inch subway sandwich instead of snack. I am still hungry.....

This new facility is very nice but not managed well. The gym sales representative told me they had only two plans. I asked him if it was more reasonable to sign up online. He told me I could not join online. I signed up for the signature plan at $49.00 a month. I went home and looked it up online and you can join online for much less at $29.00. The next day I went back and changed my plan. They try and get you to sign up for the most expensive plan that includes giving you a towel and you can attend their signature clubs which I guess are much bigger. I will bring my own towel and I am not going to drive 20 miles a day to attend a signature club. I have been going there now for about two weeks . I rotate between the cycle classes and the machines and weights. There selection of equipment in minimal. So far the cycle teacher didnt show up on one day and none of the staff members seem to know anything. Also it is so hot in the cycle room and much cooler in the workout areas. I went today to take a cycle class and their air conditioning is out. It was like a sauna in there and I just left and went home. The air conditioning was out and it didnt seem they even called someone to fix it. They should have closed the gym until they could get the air conditioning fixed because someone is going to die of heat exhaustion. I guess I am used to my old gym in North Carolina Lifetime Fitness. How I wish they would build one here.

These people who work at this gym is just straight rude especially the director of the personal trainer part I called to cancel my personal trainer classes because of the financial reasons and he kept pushing to do the class is had to explain my personal life to him so he can understand I cant do the Class at this point its 180.00 a month but I will be doing my regular work outs he said I cant cancel if I do its a 1000 to cancel and still trying to give me a deal over the phone which was the same deal when I sitting in front of his face. They told me I have 24 hours to cancel so why jump at me so hard if there was a 24 hour period to cancel and I was telling you I cant afford the program then he going to say I am not healthy its just rude Im hurt by it and you should never go below the belt telling people they are not healthy if they are still willing to work out at your gym on there own pace. They do not care about your health they only care about the money

Nice new layout and nice new equipment but the Management of this place is just piss poor. The employees/staff all look like zombies. The only staff members you see with anything resembling a smile are the salespeople when theyre walking around with a prospective new member. As usual weights dont get re-stacked. Members are allowed to wear any type of clothing that they want. Have you seen that guy in the shredded skinny tank top which barely covers his upper body? Of course you have. He doesnt even carry a towel to wipe down the equipment he uses. Gross. Oh, lets not forget the folks who walk around with their entire worldly possessions and take it with them from workout station to workout station staking "claim" to their territory. I wonder if they are adhering to Fountain Valley fire laws wherein they only allow "x" amount of people in a facility at any one time. This place gets pretty darn crowded. Other than that its a nice gym.

I was hoping for a nice , clean and well managed club. Since the HB (Warner/Beach blvd) club closed, I hoped to enjoy going to this FV location, but to my shock, the state of this club after major remodel was horrible. First, I could not even park, not sure who planned this, but no motorcycle and in general lack of parking, I guess off hours it could be better.. Then I walked in and the mens locker room was extremely dirty!! Papers on the floor, pieces of anything and everything everywhere. they NEED to keep an eye on it!! Also, my main beef is, ONLY three-lane swimming pool, and of course, when I show up about 12 people in it!! Turned around and left.. Sorry LA Fitness, this is not a good standard!

Wow this gym is a joke after the re model . People working their with a exception of a few of them are not the smartest people in the world 75% of the staff has no clue and zero people/ hospitality skills. I deffintly dont fell like I get a hello or have a nice work out almost ever . What I dislike the most is how the staff is micro managing all the wrong things and not one weight gets put back in the right places the place is a mess so in orgnized . They need a manger that knows the rules of a gym commen decency . Corporate needs to send some people in to set some guid lines
