They have GREAT stand up tan booths and the bulbs are changed regularly. It's always clean from the entrance to the bathrooms. The staff is friendly and helpful. I always see the same faces when I go there so they know you when you walk in. There's always equipment available. It was a lifesaver when my air was out for 6 days and I needed to shower and get ready for work in a cool environment. Totally worth the $25 a month!

I travel for work and I count on my Planet Fitness black card to keep me accountable for exercising. I work out every day and have for 7 years. My contract brought me to Hoover Alabama and I was very disappointed. The stair climber stopped on me twice due to “console emergency button engaged” same reason each time . I never touched an emergency button! I unplugged it waited 20 sec plugged in again and the same message popped up. I went to each emergency stop and put it on and off and that didn’t work either. By this time my heart rate was back down to normal which frustrated me more. I only have 35 min to get in a workout and for today it was ruined. I went the front desk and the guys were super nice and cool! The guy tried the same on/off thing and it didn’t work. The stepper beside me was broken and a member was on the only other one I knew of. The guy up front then let me know there were more on the other side. Remember I’m new here. If I knew that I could have hopped on one as soon as the others one stopped and saved my workout. Well I had to go. I got in half a workout today. Please go through the gym and fix the broken machines. Some of us really depend on Planet Fitness to keep anxiety down and to help our work day go better. Oh and for our cardio workout daily. Thank you for listening.
