En español: El gimnasio casi siempre está vacío. Tiene bastantes equipos. La higiene es promedio. El desinfectante que usan lo mezclan con bastante agua. El mantenimiento de los equipos son eventuales. Lo horrible son las tv: el 90% están dañadas y soy de los que gustan ver las noticias. El personal es amigable cuando no usan sus celulares y no salen a hacer cumplir las reglas: clientes sentados en los equipos hablando por sus teléfonos. La raza predominante como cliente es negra-haitiana, y sin ser racista, pues tengo muy higiénicos y bien educados amigos haitianos; pero aquí la nayoría tiene poca costumbre de higiene al terminar con los equipos (no usan sanitizer). Tienen pocas duchas e inodoros: uno o dos, máximo. Pros: precios, cercanía, parqueo... ********************************,*** English: The gym is almost always empty. It has enough equipment. Hygiene is average. The disinfectant they use mixes it with plenty of water. Maintenance of equipment is contingent. The horrible thing is the tv: 90% are damaged and I am of those who like to see the news. The staff is friendly when they do not use their cell phones and do not go out to enforce the rules: customers sitting at the computers talking on their phones. The predominant race as a client is black-Haitian, and Im not a racist (I have a haitian good educated friends). The most of customers have bad habit of hygiene, dont clean their equipments at the end of workout (they dont use the sanitizer). They have few showers and toilets: one or two, maximum. Pros: prices, closeness, parking ...

Its OK. Its a gym. It has weights and machines, what more do you want for ~ten bucks a month? Some observations: - Many of the weight machines have not been maintained. Youll find many missing stickers indicating the weight, so you have no idea what youre lifting, and many treadmills with TVs that are broken or show very static-y images. Several of the treadmills make some discouraging noises and people know to avoid them. - Ive been going here for 2+ years and have never seen anyone use the circuit training area, other than for one or two machines that dont exist elsewhere on the floor. Its a waste of space, but I suspect that the franchise owners are required by PF to set aside space for it. The freeweight area is usually busy throughout the day, though. - After the water fountain was out of service for months, it was finally replaced with a water bottle filling machine. That was a nice touch. - On the other hand, I suspect the disinfectant soap spray they provide in spray bottles is being watered down somewhere along the line. Ive been to many other PFs and it doesnt smell or feel the same. In any gym you go to, people often dont clean the equipment... Id like to at least know that the few who DO clean their equipment are having some sort of impact! - In general, the place is pretty clean and orderly. Its never terribly busy, has plenty of parking (now that the Bank of America next door is gone!) and Ive never had any problems with the staff. Ill probably continue going here for the time being because I can still get my workout in easily. Make no mistake about it, though, this is no Club Med!

I love this place. Six minutes from my home in Milton, it has everything I need in terms of free weights, machines and aerobics. The staff is very friendly (were all smiles), the members are generally nice real people, and theres plenty of free parking in the lot out front. Ive been a member since 2014, and have gotten fit twice there, both before and after chemotherapy/radiation. The hours are more user friendly than any gym Ive seen in my four decades of gym experience. I look forward to my time there, which is very important because I wouldnt go as often as I need if I didnt feel good about it. FIVE SINCERE STARS from this customer.

This place is the least crowded of the two in the area. The parking situation is much simpler and easy to get to. There are plenty of machines usually free during the day. After 5 oclock it gets busy during the week but on the weekends its fairly empty. There are only two things I dislike about this location. The first is that most of the TV channels on the treadmills either dont come in or are fuzzy and some dont work at all. The second is that this location doesnt have a scale that you can weigh yourself on to measure your progress. They claim its part of their no judgment zone policy which I think is just stupid

I cant believe this guy treat a customers like that I dont know his name, but I went there on 01/15/15 around ( 6:00AM ) I always use my jup rope in any planet fitness I went this morning there is a guy came to me and said that i cant use my jump rope and he cant even give me any prove from the policy he was very rude to me . I was really upset i just get my stuff and leave without finish workout then I told him Im gonna cancel my membership because of how he talk to me he said come do it now, woww that was really suprise me to see how a employee talk to a customer .

The place has a lot of cardio machinery which is great! HOWEVER, THE ATTITUDES OF THE FEMALE WORKERS ARE HORRIBLE! Theres the one over weight Spanish girl who works in the mornings has a horrible attitude always giving evil stares to men and women who walk in. snatches the cards during scanning them I just signed up for another gym. Not to mention the males who work there.. when they see couples weirdly enough they follow them around just awful experience here.

Ive been going to this "so called gym" for almost a year now, I must say the people they hire have absolutely no knowledge of fitness and they just stand in the front desk on their phones, and the person in the mornings that SUPPOSED to open this "so called gym" up, is ALWAYS late. So if you must do your workouts do it in the afternoons or in the evening cause the morning person isnt a morning person AT ALL! And I will be cancelling my membership as of TODAY!

The equipment that they have is not the greatest but it will do for now. If you are focused on getting the best workout as far as running on the treadmill or elliptical this place will do. I like listening to music or watching Food Network when Im using these machines most of the time theyre not working it makes it a little bit difficult to concentrate. The staff overall not too bad they greet you when they have too.

My recent visit was to cancel my account terrible place to say the lease...equipments functionality horrible. Environment unclean. . Im not sure if its because that location is based in a predominantly black neighborhood. .that its not properly kept However I have visited quincy and Dedham location cleaner and better functionality equipments. .
