Didn't like the fact that during covid shutdown they still felt free to take their monthly fee out our acct.wgats nor is ntmine and hubby is sane acct 2gether yet charged us separately which then charged us 2 overdrawn transctns of $35 + fee TWICE how is it possible or even acceptable that we could sweat on a machine and someone can come and sit on that same machine and sweat also but yet we can't take a shower after a workout

Membership was cancelled for bringing in a gallon of water! Yet the water dispensers are turned off! If we're in the middle of a pandemic and can't get water from the machines there why wouldn't an exception to the gallon rule be applicable? Planet Fitness claims no judgement yet they judge you for drinking out of a "jug" and/or "gallon" of water. 👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎

Their website says a gym closer to where I live is "coming soon". Used to be Bally fotness and then a 24 hour fitness and now soon to be a plant fitness. Went over there and it is likely 4 to 6 months from opening. ahhhh sales and marketing

Good gym. Always nice and clean. Could add butter soap dispensers in bathrooms. Wish they would stay open a little later.

Staff couldn’t not help me checking me inn. I travel a lot and I keep moving locations thats the reason I use plannet fitness and This is my first location where my first membership started. They could not find my account and thats not my problem and they finally find my account and there was zip code issue and I asked for oneday check to avoid hassle for the day since It was last hour. They couldn’t help me. This is my first time felt its not worth keeping membership @plannet fitness.

Such a terrible experience. they charged for the corona months; their explanation is "wear masks and do gym". any one who is taking the membership here , please watch your bank account for their charges. also, money can be taken without ur consent, but to cancel you need to visit or send a letter, even if there is a corona surge because "cancellation is only through consent". physical fitness is related to mental fitness and you will not get it here

I've been here 3 times as a guest and each time it was a fair experience. The pricing is very good and, if you go with the $20 versus $10 monthly rate, you get add-ons like complimentary tanning bed, massage chair, and hydro massage bed, all of which appear to be maintained and are pretty cool. You can also go to other Planet Fitness locations with the higher-priced option as well as bring a non-member guest (13 or over) with you. (Note that both monthly fees in most cases also include a contract and/or an initiation fee, depending on the promo they're running that month.)The equipment is pretty good and free weights are available but it's primarily machines. They don't have the really high-end machines that count reps for you or have separate pullies on right and left but they are standard and decent. Same for cardio machines: rowing machines, stationary bikes, stair machines, and treadmills. All industrial level - meaning a lot more durable than you'll find at home - but also just standard without a lot of bells and whistles. Locker rooms are okay but towels, conditioner, or other high-end accoutrements are not available. There are no classes save for a small room that has some red/green lights on the wall and people are expected to cycle through the provided weight machines interspersed with benches for various cardio, according to the timed lights: 60 seconds on, 30 seconds to switch. In the three times I've been here, there are always at least a few people in the room doing the machines according to their own schedule, which totally screws up the people trying to cycle through all of the equipment and do it correctly. I've never seen an employee policing the area or asking people to follow the "required" format of the room, despite all the signs on the wall detailing exactly what you're required to be doing in that room. Members are sort of expected to request the screw-everyone-else-I'm-doing-my-own-thing people to please move to the next machine themselves. Although, when I asked at the front desk, I was told that employees are supposed to check the room regularly and that they do try even though they get busy. Again, I haven't seen them do it but I've only been three times, each time between about 8:30 a.m. and noon. (Side note: when I asked them, they said it's a lot harder for them to check the room in the late afternoon/evening because it's so much busier, so I'd hate to see what it's like then.)I do also want to take a moment to say that the gym had members with all different body weights and fitness levels and the gym seemed focused (i.e., messaging throughout the gym, etc.) on inclusion and making everyone feel accepted. I thought this was awesome but there were also a few times where I was waiting for weight machines and several were filled by people doing very low weights for very long periods of time while they scrolled through their phones, which was a little frustrating.Note on cleanliness: we are still mid-covid as of this writing and there were cleaning supplies everywhere. Most people appeared to be wiping the equipment down when they were done but it was also pretty easy to grab a paper towel and spray bottle to do a quick wipe before you started if you weren't sure.Bottom line: this is a low-end gym but depending on what you are looking for - hopefully cardio machines and weight machines - you will find it for a very good price. If you are used to or have been a member of high-end clubs (towels, saunas, different rooms for free weights and classes, multiple class options throughout the day), this gym night not cut it unless you check your expectations. If you're just looking for a workout and you need the equipment to do it, this place will definitely suffice.
