Staff are very nice and friendly when you walk in. Most of the equipment is new now so appreciate the new machines and stuff to work out with. Environment is pretty chill and clean but if you don’t like to go when crowded I suggest you check the app to see the crowd level.

Always packed . One person using 6 different dumbbell at the same time . Ppl do 1 set and 20 min on their phones. I’m Never able to use the smith machine cause everyone is waiting to use the same machine not enough machines for everybody.

As I work close to this location I had my daily routine planned. I go to the gym at 0500 am till 0630 am. Now on weekends the gym opens at 0700 am, the same time as I start work. I work till 1900 and this is when the gym closes. Makes no sense to cut off the hours in the time where everyone is at the gym ... weekends and early mornings.This schedule is extremely inconvenient and needs to change back to 24h every day.

First time stepping foot at a gym lol. It's pretty clean and people make sure to clean after they use the machines. I go around 4:30 pm and there's not much foot traffic. I noticed around 5:30 a lot more ppl started coming in. They have 4 stair masters but one wasn't working. I noticed they have more than one smith machines. I mostly do cardio so not too sure how the weight side of the gym looks.

I enjoy coming to this gym because it’s open 24/7, has parking, is no frills/judgement, is clean, and staff is generally very friendly. The issue I’ve been frustrated with more recently is HOW LOUD THE MUSIC is here…I’ve noticed that it’s been much louder the last few months for some reason. It’s to the point that it makes it very difficult to listen to your own music without either playing it very loudly in your headphones or needing noise cancelling headphones. At times I feel like I’m at the club or something considering how loud it is here…I have asked them so many times to turn it down but most of the time they don’t because apparently only the manager is able to do it for whatever reason…the manager does lower the volume but other employees always say they can’t. But every time I come back here the music is always back to being very loud. It’s been really frustrating!!! Please lower the volume of your music so we can all enjoy our own music!!!!Also I wish the gym had more hand sanitizing stations such as in the locker rooms and throughout the gym. They have them in a few places but mostly near the entrance.

I been going to this gym since 2015 and never had an issue up until now. I understand COVID been an issue but this is supposed to be A 24/7 gym yet they’re only open 24/4. This really sucks considering my workouts were always at 5-6 am. The weekend used to be even better considering early hours but the staff say their hours are permanently staying short for the weekend and we’ll a lot of gyms are opening back to their regular hours except this location.

I had confused this location with the one in pulaski so this is my personal thought. I like this location better than the one In pulaski and the one in cicero this one does have more variety of machines the staff is nice here too but the only thing is that the lady's restroom doesn't always smell clean.

The Black Card perks aren’t as nice as they are in other PF locations. One of their hydro massages has been down since I’ve been going to the gym (about 3 months), but overall it’s a good experience from what you expect from Planet Fitness.

I love the simplicity, I am always getting what I expect, equipment always works, I don't need classes, I just need to be fit and strong. There is plenty of room to work out, stretch, move around, AND social distance at Planet Fitness. You have not raised your monthly fees since I first heard of you, and I think that is all-out good will on your part. I can't think of a single complaint. That is sincere.
