After shutting its somewhat aging doors for two weeks in March of 2016 for a much needed face-lift, LA Fitness reopens. Alas, like a lot of former celebrities looking to nip and tuck their way towards reviving a heyday a decade or two in the past...the new LA Fitness somehow manages to look both familiar and also slightly depressing. But to their credit, the they did install some faux hardwood flooring, And the new flooring is indeed an improvement over the brown-carpetting-and-orange-wallpaper to which wed all become accustomed...a color scheme that had more in common with "That 70`s Show" than with exercise and fitness. But thats an aside. The point is, LA Fitness clearly cares about its customers, and this caring is evidenced by the new laminate flooring. And while less-ambitious companies might just throw in some laminate flooring, rest on their laurels, and call it a day, LA Fitness wasnt nearly done. They also repainted part of the mens old locker room and put up a poster of a smiling man, exercising. The placid expression on the face of Mr. Locker Room Poster Man made it clear he was very happy to be exercising at the newly-refurbished LA Fitness. Either they, or he had just invested in a laminate wood-flooring company that had just signed a big national contact. In hindsight, I guess LA Fitness was actually nearly done at this point. Thats because, like a D-list Hollywood celebrity who had grown tanned, tucked, and lethargic after years of squandering the support of the public, the new LA Fitness face-lift actually does nothing so much as draw attention to the various inadequacies still left glaringly untended. On tonights trip, I counted eleven recumbent bikes on the cardio floor. Why do I know this exact number, you might ask? Because I had a lot of trouble finding one that actually worked. Five of the eleven were inoperative...a ratio of working- to not-working equipment that hasnt changed in the list 24 months at this location, and I suspect others. But, Im happy to say that the hip new design aesthetic carries over into this area, too. In the past, unsuspecting customers had to blindly wander from machine to machine in hopes of finding one that works. Today instead, LA Fitness treats its customers not just to faux flooring, but also to faux ironic hipster signage...this, in the form of sharpie-scrawled handwritten messages on masking tape. Anyway, Im not sure how this whole face-lift thing will play to LA Fitness core audience. But I do give them kudos for going the extra inch. Well, Im not sure they went the entire extra inch. So Ill give them kudos for not just rolling over and dying. Which admittedly would have been a path involving slightly less effort than the one they actually took.

I went there on 8th of June 2015. I was working out on my usual days which are Mondays and Wednesday. Ive been there several times, never had any issue at this one or anyone nor do I know anyone at this location. After I was done working I went in the Mens locker room to change. As I was using the bathroom one of the male staff members approached me respectfully and asked was I in the womens bathroom using their scale. I said no. He said I fit the description because I was black and had dread locs. Then while I was exiting the building the cleaning staff lady said she just spoke to me about using the scale in the womens bathroom. I never had a conversation or even seen her before because I usually keep it to myself when Im in there. Then the front desk staff member asked me the same question implying that I was not telling the truth so she advised me that there are 2 other ladies and if they identify me my membership will be canceled so I was like ok. When she said I can leave and I will be called about the status of the situation because she didnt want me to be in the building when the ladies identify me, I was skeptical. I then called the authorities to clear the situation because I wanted to resolve the situation before leaving the building. When the police arrived I explained the situation and he then went to talk to the front desk woman staff member. Once he was done he told me to step outside. All I was told is that my membership is being canceled and I would be trespassing. No other witness was brought fort as stated by the woman employee. I left without any resistance because I was innocent. I called corporate and all I was told is that they would call them to get their side of the story. This is a very serious matter. It doesnt make sense to anyone that a 36 yr old man with his company shirt would violate policy and use the womens locker-room to use a scale. No one that was working out resembles me. I was just targeted by the women staff. again this is a serious issue because if I was accused of theft or even attempted rape I wouldnt have a leg to stand on just because I so called fit the description of the person they thought they saw. There is noting wrong with LA Fitness. I love their facility in Florida, Georgia, and Texas but at this location I was discriminated against because of my hair. Now I am paranoid because all it takes is for more than one person to go with a lie and you can be falsely accused. This is a very serious issue with the woman staff and the cleaning lady. If you just want to workout and not want to jeopardize your freedom by people who discriminate I would not go to this location. Better safe then sorry.

I do not want to give this location any stars. I joined for health reasons only to swim as ordered by my doctor for my lungs. I had issues with this location and the manager. One of those that smiles and agrees with you and does nothing. In 45 day the place was closed or the pool closed for 9 day. To top that off the last day I was there I got kicked out of the pool because they said this 68 69 next month year old man was swimming too much and people were waiting and I had to share a lane with someone else that was designed for one person. The manager did not even know what constituted a swimming lane. I have arrived many times and sat on the steps in the water and waited politely for people to finish. Now everyone want you to interrupt your workout and let them get in because they dont want to wait. Besides my main complaint of this issue all is true that others say about equipment, dirty, manager and everything else. IF YOU HAVE A CHOICE DO NOT JOIN. FIND ANOTHER CLUB TO WORK OUT AT. YOU WILL BE DISAPPOINTED.

Just following my friends to look at hows the LA fitness around this area, he have a member and my other friend also have a member, but not me, so they told me to wait in the front desk because Im not a member, I said Ok and then I need to borrow the rest room real quick while my 2 friends workout, and this short black guy in the front told me he cant let me use it because Im not a member????? Well Im just shocked how the guy just said that. So I asked for the second time that I really need to go to use the bathroom, and still he said no. As a previous member of LA fitness, I feel like being treated like no body, well I guess there is nothing I could do but take it anyway. Yeah why bother Ill my other friends to just move to another gym. Btw the time when this happen is. 4.5.16 Tuesday 3.30 pm, so if you are LA fitness super or manager of this LA fitness and if you happen to check and read and want to do some change towards your customers relation you know what to do
