The place is dirty ,equipments, and restrooms. I always go in the night since I work mornings and there's this guy name Jesus and he's rude and unprofessional. My mom came as a guest since I have a black card to try out the gym because she wanted to try out the gym and see if she gets a membership. I was told that my mom wasn't able to use the massage chairs in a RUDE and UGLY TONE . Plus he was harassing my sister which she had nothing to do with it. Since we have different membership.Bad customer service and the employees are either always eating or talking to each other in the front.

Someone broke into the my locker and stole my money that I had in my wallet. This place is know for people getting rob. They really need to put a securiry guard in the mens locker room to make sure nothing goes missing I will never return to this planet fitness. Plus the staff in the front are clueless on helping in anyway. Whats the point of having on site staff if they don't know how to deal with situations like this.

Great gym to work out. I've been coming here for 3 years and still like it. The price is cheap, it's very clean, open 24/7 and you can find everything your looking for whether its for cardio or weights. TVs to watch and music to listen to while you work out. Lots of variety when it comes to machines. They also have water, and equipment you can buy at the front desk. Friendly staff, and free pizza every first monday of the month which is pretty cool.I don't like that the meatheads hog up all the weight machines and after they're done they hand em off to their friends...really? It's annoying having to deal with that theres not enough weight machines for everyone especially the bench press also...it can get CROWDED sometimes because it's not a big gym and everyone goes so you have to pick a good time. 5 PM and later..forget about it..its crazy. The best time to go is around 12 PM on weekdays and also the weekends. Weekends are dead hardly anyone there. Also I noticed that the "personal trainer" tends to only train hot looking girls but doesn't bother with overweight or ugly girls..lol. I don't know what that's about but that's kinda sad..the guy seems like he flirts around and stands around talking more then training people. Not that I care but thats kinda messed up haha. Overall it's a good gym and definitely reccomend it.

I love this location! The staff is kind and helpful. You are always greeted when you walk in, and the say, goodbye when you leave. The facility is very clean. The staff is constantly cleaning. The Trainer, Jeffery was very helpful and knowledgeable. He helped design a program to suit my daugter and my workout needs. I will totally reccomend this gym, and this particular facility. I have already gotten my two daughters, my cousin and my son to join. I think we are going to have success in reaching are health and exercise goals. Thans Planet Fitness!

Got the platinum card to take full advantage of my gym experience. Enrolled in classes (“Design your Own Program”and the “Morning Circuit”) unfortunately trainer was a no show on multiple occasions. This was called out to management and the front desk. I spoke to manager directly, he apologized but this continued regardless. Front desk wasn’t much help either. On one occasion, I reached out to the front desk to see where the trainer was because he was approx 15 minutes late for his morning class. The front desk mentioned; “He called in sick and wouldn’t make it”. I stayed at the gym and simply began to work out by myself, 30 minutes later the trainer walks in. The front desk lied and covered for him. This was really discouraging. I show up on time, every time. I pay for the service, they don’t pay me. It expected professionalism, accountability and leadership in a trainer/management team. I unfortunately didn’t get that. I have stayed away from the gym after this incident, but I shouldn’t use this as an excuse. I’ll go back soon, I just won’t enroll in any of their “classes”. (I am not making this up btw, just calling this out as I hope someone else doesn’t go through what happened to me, I have the trainer and managers name, Along with the email sent to PF member services, but I will omit that).

It’s a great gym and the people who are complaining don’t have patience. The gym is obviously busy around 5pm because everyone bum rushes in and take up all the machines and weights at the same damn time. After 11pm it dies out. So take your pick come early in the morning till around 2pm OR come at 11pm. DONT BLAME THE EMPLOYEES BECAUSE THERES NOT A MACHINE AVAILABLE WAIT YOUR TURN :-). The staff are always willing to help and understand what you’re asking. I think this gym is great it’s just the other guests that come in and trash it like it’s their home that give the gyms a bad rep. Great prices great service.

This Gym is cool. But theres this group of 8+ people that go around 7pm and they hang out in the bench press area and they hog up all 3 machines for like 2+ hours. And they talk for like 5mins between sets! Its annoying! Staff needs to be more strict. And more strict with the guys restroom aswell, guys be shaving in there and leaving hairs and razors all over the place. Once i saw a guy even shaving his head in there!!

Depending on who's there the staff is either really rude or really nice. They gym is great when it's not too crowded (it almost always is) and you can actually use a machine. If you wanna go when it's not crowded try going between 1 and 3 am serioisly.

I personally love most Planet Fitness’s, this one is clean and staff is nice, maybe too nice. There’s no staff properly policing people in the gym, you have people hogging 2-3 machines at a time, for 30 minutes at a time. You have people just sitting and playing on their phones for 20 minutes, holding up a whole machine. You have people jumping from 20 machines and not wiping it down at all. There is no respect for proper gym etiquette from most of the members here. Also, there’s not nearly enough weight machines, too many cardio. Maybe there should be appointment slots on each machine?

There are plenty of cardio machines but not enough free weights. Most of the time all the dumbbells are being hoarded by one person and never are reracked. The staff do nothing to enforce any type of gym etiquette. This place is great for those short term resolutioners but if you are a serious gym goer then avoid this place.
