Been coming here since October. Really like this place bc its pretty well maintained compared to the other PH I been to. What I dont like about this gym is the locker situation. With the large transient population increasing (possibly due to the cold weather) and all the ppl here with their New Years resolutions its hard to get a large locker during peak hours even though peak hours arent that bad here. For example, I immediately left the gym today bc I could not find a locker big enough to accommodate my belonging. I went to three different smaller ones without a lock and they all had belongings in them as well, so in my frustration I simply left. Ive notice since I stated coming here that the transient population likes to use this gym to store their belonging and shower. I feel that this contributes greatly to the problem. Ive witness many of them come into the gym shower, Lock up there stuff and leave, never even using the gym. The 24 hour locker policy doesnt seem to help either. Who needs a locker that long? With the limited number of locker vs the population who use this gym as storage its doesnt help at all. To fix this I feel they either need to add more lockers, rent them somehow, or reduce the 24 hour policy significantly. But until then, to compensate for this Im just going to start bringing two locks with me so that I can use two smaller ones. I know this only contributes to the problem but between my gym bag and work stuff I need a larger locker.

I could honestly say this location is close to where I live. I work out much of the time and enjoy the spacious place. On top of all this, the cleaning of lockers as I always see, are always trash everywhere, and this is not because of the staff either, their not at fault(as they clean up all the time, Iv witnessed myself). People are just messy in general. Ive read some reviews concerning the issue on homeless people, that is also true to. But.......My major issue and the issue that tops all, is that this place gets heavily packed, and when that happens, people(paid members, non-homeless) have the tendency to just sit on the equipment on their phones not doing Anything!!!!!(but on there phones) Dont miss quote me, I tend to take 10 to 15 minute breaks or stop to change a song, but when Im finished, Im finished and gets off so that other people can use it. This happens all the time I come, people not using the Goddam equipment Im trying to acquire(some even leave items at the equipment, Im guessing to save it???). Its been many of times I had to leave early due to this situation, now days currently I have to come at certain times and work out.

This is my first time attending this gym. I hadnt been to a gym in many years. I dont feel intimidated here. They have so many machines that I never have to stand and wait. The gym is two floors and has a nice floor plan. The staff is very friendly. Great location because I only work a few doors away and I have monthly parking one block away. I have been coming to this gym since June 21, 2016 and I am actually enjoying working out. Time sure flies when you are here. The first couple of days I have been here my sessions have been two hours. After those first two days I got a routine where I am here only one hour and a half. I had the privilege of meeting their trainer Cory who is amazing. He is very knowledgeable. I attended their "Design your own Program" which was done by Cory. I am looking forward to my new workout routine. Stop by and say hi to Cory.

First place I have ever felt comfortable exercising. Lots of low impact machines for cardio. And many have TVs on them so you can plug in headphones and watch anything from a soccer game to the discovery channel. Great distraction for self conscious people though I found myself not needing it. The TVs dont all work and they dont seem to be in a rush to fix them. Over all its clean and except for one jerk very welcoming. They have classes to teach you how to use machines and they will help you design a custom program. There are lots of easy to use weight machines downstairs and ab stations. They also offer tanning booths, massage chairs, and other spa stuff for black card members and you can bring one friend a day with this membership. We all need a little encouragement and accountability now and then.

FOOD NETWORK runs 24 hours on the TV in this gym. WHAT are they thinking??!! For over two weeks Ive requested that they switch the channel or at least randomly display various channels, but neither the gym manager, neither any of the staff did anything about it. So buyer beware, this gyms customer service us seriously lacking (although they have a couple of good people too). Secondly, how committed is this gym to help its customers achieve their fitness goals if they keep presenting on and on and on cooking recipes, cooking contests, food, food, FOOD over and over? Very bad, very disrespectful to people that try to reach their fitness goals. However, if on the other side you try becoming a chef, join this gym, by all means. Seems they have a knack for cooking and everything culinary...

Love this place. I was visiting friends and needed a gym for one and a half months. I just walked in and signed up. No initiation fees, just $1 authorization fee. I pay $10 mo for one gym access only. Its clean, very fresh and air conditioned. Machines are clean and shiny. Lockers are tidy and showers are clean. It doesnt have free weight barbels for bench press but squat racks instead where the barbel is locked and moves up and down. Other then that, there is a ton of treadmills and staircase machines for cardio. Each of them has a tv with local channels (SD). It is tree steps away from Metro Persian Square (Red Line), which is super convenient because the gym has no parking and is located on a busy street. I highly recommend. The gym is open 24/7

I signed up last year October for the pre sale special and they had said it was to be open in January . Then January came around and it still wasnt open . They said not till February . Okay I come in February and its still not okay . Okay now theyve said theyre to be open March . Specifically today . I did not want to waste my time and show up again just to be disappointed so I called and guess what ? It is still not open . They dont even send emails or anything letting the customers know when they plan to open . Even if they had clearly they dont stick to their word anyway . If I can give them 0 stars I would .

Great Gym no complaints about that but customer service over the phone was horrible!!! Spoke to 2 people over the phone about my account the first one was super rude and kept cutting me off when I tried to ask questions about my account and when I asked for their name they hung up on me. I waited called back again and spoke with a girl named Amber when I told her about the 1st person she was quick to get attitude with me then pretended she couldnt hear me and also hung up on me. This is ridiculous and poor customer service. I had to call a different planet fitness to get my problem solved.
