This location is lucky to be in St. Charles because they WOULD NOT STAND A CHANCE elsewhere. This gym does not use the AC!! It is so hot and the air is so stale. Every other gym and every other LA Fitness is much nicer. Not sure how this branch fits the brand....They changed from Esporta to LA Fitness, why? If anything it got worse and no updates were done!

Super crowded all the time, 5-6 kids/teenagers on a machine at all times talking and not training. No wifi 80% of the time, there is no signal in here is a bunker so get ready to not be able to use your music playlist.

this place is robbing peoples lockers while they are in the gym. 3 people have been robbed of their money. You would have to have bolt cutters in the locker room in order to get into someones locker. This place is not safe and don't waste your money

First time checking this gym out, it’s big but the layout wasn’t my favorite, the women’s room is kinda hidden and for it being my first time and feeling a bit anxious and me not being able to find it after my workout made my first experience not the best one. I do like that they have cardio machines upstairs because I just went up there my first time to kind of see where everything is and maybe won’t feel so anxious the first time. I mentioned to the front desk that is was my first time there when I asked for the locker room and they kinda directed me to it but it would’ve been helpful and nice If maybe they would’ve offered to show me around but they did not. They do have a pool which is cool cause they also offer swim lessons there. Have not gone back after the first time but maybe I’ll give it another shot.

Overall an excellent gym except for the fact the wifi never works. For all those complaining about the equipment, all you need are squat racks, dumbbells, smith machines, flat bench and a pull up bar for a good workout and they have that. Avoid peak times, go in the mornings and you will be just fine. Sometimes the sauna is hit or miss with regards to being hot, which can be annoying if that’s all you need.

It’s ok…but for the amount of people that pack this place the equipment seems limited. If you go anytime between 3p-8p you’re going to be waiting a long time for a bench/machine. Staff is nice, could definitely be cleaner and it would be nice if people re-racked their weights but the gym can’t always control that. Does the job I guess 🤷🏻

Has the potential to be a great gym for a low price. But management doesn't fix its machines. There's a handful of machines that have been "scheduled for service" for weeks now, some months. The staff is friendly and they keep the gym very clean. They just have to actually fix the machines we're paying monthly to use.

This location is close to my office and has something for everyone, but they have way too many teenagers that show up without any gym etiquette or respect. Many kids end of getting in the way and are often not paying attention to their surroundings which can sometimes become a safety issue when there are weights involved. It’s extremely annoying. For how busy this location gets, there needs to be more dumbbells too. Best thing to do with this gym is to go super early when it’s not as busy.

What I love most is that the cardio is on the second level and has a great view of the gym and televisions. This gym is extremely clean. I love the sauna and pool. Also there are so many great options on the main level. There are usually good vibes, no weird or mean people.There are only 2 things I wish were different and that's the hours and a juicebar. They have limited hours fri-sun. Also I wish they had a juicebar like the dundee Location!But the gym is awesome and 7 mins from my home.
