Really not many complains.. most machines work, most members are cool, the diversity of machines is impressive. It gets a little busy just like every other gym, as there aren't that many in the area. Yea, they use a bluetooth speaker but I bring my own headphones and unless you care too much about the aesthetics, who cares. 4 starts because the water fountains aren't good.I worked out my whole life at Equinox and the motivation and equipment here are so much better. This is a better gym that doesn't feel cheap.Should have left a negative review so it won't get more crowded.

I really hate writing bad reviews and I’ve been holding this back for a while, but this needs to be said. …

Been a member before the gym opened. Got my membership in kiosk in the mall 2018. The gym has come a long way. Now I’m a 1099 employee since 2021. Grateful to have been on both sides of the fitness experience. Would recommend to anyone looking for a clean gym with excellent equipment. I don’t care that much about the sound system going down to one large speaker. The majority of the members wear headphones anyway when they workout. That’s just how times are now. The speakers work excellent in each class room. The group fitness community is awesome and is growing day to day. I’ve seen gyms come and go in Broward. PHG seems to be leading the way with consistency.

Sadly this place is going downhill very fast with more and more machine being broken and in need of maintenance. Members complain but the complaints fall on deaf ears. What was once supposed to be an upscale gym is quite below average in my opinion. There’s no shortage of Selfie sticks that get in the way however. So if you’re looking for selfie sticks and people filming themselves with tripods please join. If you’re looking for machines that are clean and working… you may be out of luck

I was in Fort Lauderdale last spring for Spring Break and this was one of the gyms me and my friends chose to lift at. Needless to say it was one of the best gyms that we could've found. It has a neat atmosphere, the lighting is very modern …

I was very happy with the classes and gym overall. However, I had to cancel my membership due to having surgery. They not only charged me for the month I wasn’t using it, but also charged me for June( it’s may) and $75 cancellation fee. I …

Great gym, but unprofessional management. I had been working out there pretty regularly. About 2 months ago I was having a discussion with someone at the front desk when a manager chastised me by saying I was distracting the employee. I …

Good location and the equipment is all well-maintained. But it's so crowded and there are often lines for certain machines. I don't think it could be solved by adding new machines because there's not really the room for it. So my workouts …

Buyer beware! Membership is NON CANCELABLE!They tricked to and told me I could cancel with a 30 day notice and a fee and it turns out that only applies if you have a medical condition or are moving over 25 miles away from the gym (they didn't mention this upon signing up of course). As someone who does not sign up for anything that can't be canceled ever, I felt tricked and lied to. Now I must attend a gym I don't like for a year. That's what you call shady business. When I confronted them about it, they denied telling me anything and refused to help me cancel. Quite literally the worst relationship you could ever get into. Shame on the owner (Clay Flotz I see you).Unfortunately there is no gym etiquette here which is part of the reason I wanted to leave. Cleaners vacuuming and mopping during busy hours, people have their big gym bags around the gym on the floor next to them when they should be in the locker room where they belong. No one is enforcing this. When I approached the "manager" I was told "it has always been like this" and that was that.Employees are cute but not friendly. Get treated 20 times better at Planet Fitness which is $10 a month. You also get to cancel whenever and bring a friend any day if you'd like. Not to mention you can workout at any location in the country.On top all of this, machines are out of order every single day with some items such as the very important water fountain having been out of order for now about 6 months. A completely disrespect to members paying top dollar for a gym. Again, planet fitness has 0 machines out of order for 1/6th of the fee. Absolutely no excuse for this to be happening. Shameless!
