24 Hour Fitness in Oakland offers a spacious gym with modern equipment, a pool, sauna, and steam room. Despite its extensive facilities, the gym faces significant challenges in cleanliness and maintenance. Many members appreciate the staff's friendliness, the variety of equipment, and the overall atmosphere, but frequent issues with broken machines and theft concerns frequently overshadow these positives.

Not my regular 24 gym I go too but I tried it and really like the facility and the faculty only thing that was crazy was it didn't have the tumble dryer so if you use the pool or steam room you got to leave with wet clothes. I couldn't believe it but the front desk confirmed for me I quote they said "too fancy" hilarious. However parking is great and its a clean place.

I'm cancelling my membership after 8 years of going 3x a week. I used to go for the group classes like zuumba & kick boxing classes. However all the good teachers are gone now and the staff is rude and not helpful. Coming to the gym is depressing with a huge homeless camp surrounding it! It's so nasty inside and out. I have been pushed and shoved from the yoga class folks trying to get out of zuumba class 3x. I feel sooo uncomfortable that I might get in a hurt that I have to finally cancel. It's no longer worth it. I'm joining planet fitness today.

More car break ins than normal. Lots of broken glass in the parking lot. Last week someone stole a bike tire right in front of the main door. Today, the security guard is sitting inside the building texting. So much for security. People beware of the parking area and be care. It's getting sketchier and nasty out there.

Broken machines- Check!Unsafe environment-Check!Increasing membership fees-Check!Poor management- Check!Wait 20 minutes in line for a damaged cardio machine- Check!There are 6 stairmasters and they are ALWAYS broken. The ones that actually work are often slow and damaged. This has been the case for the past 9 years. There have been several members that complain. However, the management and company totally disregard members concerns or safety ( since managemet allows members to use damaged machines).24 Hour Fitness continues to raise membership dues yearly. They often offer new memberships at a lower rate than current members. I would NOT recommend! Time for a new gym or management.

They recently added more equipment that works great. I only go late at night so no crowds and staff is always very nice. It’s worth the low monthly fee they charge me. Other gyms charge up to $150 a month! I have never had a bad experience there. They have security that watches me walk out when I leave. If you need a place to work out that has a huge room for doing floor exercises, a variety of equipment, weights in 3 different areas, 3 Smith machines, 3 TRX setups, lots of cardio choices, a turf area for HIIT workouts, etc, a pool and basket ball area, a store and I think babysitting then come here. It’s well worth the money.

I ended up going to another 24 hour fitness 15 mins away that was cleaner, had a better gym vibe and way more light. This place is dark, dreary and muggy! The parking lot is sketch AF, no security or any type of parking patrol like other gyms I frequent. A lot of meatheads, oldheads and people working on incorrectly on machines. Very stank and crowded even for 12 noon on a Monday. I won't return EVER.
