Planet Fitness, located at 6208 US Hwy 98 N, Lakeland, FL, is known for its welcoming environment and affordability, especially for beginners and those with disabilities. Popular for its 'judgment-free zone,' this gym offers 24-hour access on weekdays, making it convenient for various schedules. While many members appreciate the friendly staff and clean facilities, the gym has faced criticism over inconsistent customer service and cleanliness in certain areas. Overall, it's a good choice for budget-conscious gym-goers seeking a non-intimidating workout environment.
Members can access various exercise machines, hydro massage beds, and massage chairs, particularly attractive to Black Card holders. Despite these positives, some complaints revolve around issues such as high noise levels due to loud music, occasional rude staff, and cleanliness concerns in the restrooms.

The staff is always cleaning but I had seen people cleaning with the same towel paper every machine or not even cleaning, it is something that needs achange but I always clean the machine before and after so with planet fitness making it 24 hours 7 days a week it will be amazing and give the five starts is not good to travel to plant city or aurbundale when theres two planet fitness in Lakeland.

So I FINALLY decide (since it's close ) to join this gym.I see it all the time and I saw the commercial that repeated " no commitment " , well I find out that it is only 10.00 a month....HOWEVER you must put that on a card...no cash and no paying it at the gym....so the no commitment is to stop payment and stop going..otherwise they need your card #. ....so I'm still looking for a gym! ughhhhh

Great place. Friendly staff. I forgot my access key today. The girl behind the counter was super nice, looked me up in the system and let me in. Saved me a trip back home to get my pass. I also like the fact that this place is hardly ever busy.

I've been using planet fitness for approximately 3 years with no issues, yesterday I was working out and 15 minutes before closing time, the planet fitness employee turned on an ear piercing siren, at first I didn't know what it meant, then 5 minutes later the same startling siren sounded again, then we realized that she was warning us that it was almost closing time. Now today the employee walked up to us and said "we close in 15 minutes " and I said, I know. 10 minutes later she walked up to us again, like we're stupid and said we close in 5 minutes. These 2 appeared to be new employees. In my three years as a member everyone always leave by closing time without being told. I found these types of behaviors very rude. I was already considering switching to another gym, these 2 experiences just sealed our decision, they'll be losing 2 members.

I love this gym. They have all the workout equipment I like to use. Most planet fitness I go to in other towns don't have all of them. The Ppl are very nice and the place is super clean. No complaints from me.

Small fitness center but enough equipment for everything for a good workout, just seemed a little tighter than other Planets. Screen for massage and tanning is too high and blocks employees from seeing the guest when talking to them. Not a big deal, just haven't seen that in the numerous other planets I've visited in this country.. Still loved it!

The staff seem relatively friendly. Disappointed in the lack of variety in equipment. Extremely disappointed in their advertisement as a 24/5, Mon-Fri gym when they close at 9pm on Fridays. They're really a 24/4, Mon-Thurs.

I don't do thievery, but I am always quick to recognize it. #PlanetFitness is literally skirting right on the edge of the law, if not just over it. Attorney General Pam Bondi's office will definitely let me know, and #PlanetFitness, too; I'm very sure. This NO CONTACTING CLIENTS after said clients have fulfilled their obligations with their contracts, and outright taking their money from their checking accounts and credit cards is, wait for theft it: THEFT! Everyone there are better places than this, please for your sake and your financial health; STAY AWAY FROM #PLANETFITNESS
