Pretty good gym, lots of equipment most of it's old but still works. Only complaint is the locker room which is usually dirty and the free weights are all over the place. The gym is packed around 9 and 5 but so are most other gyms. Best time is early morning or around noon.
This location has a persistent theft problem in the locker room. My padlock was removed a year ago, fortunately nothing taken from the locker. But last week, my new padlock was removed again and this time my credit cards were stolen. Someone tried to charge $1500 at Ralphs (declined). I just read an earlier 1-star review with the same exact thing happened to someone else. I spoke to management about this...shoulder-shrug. Inside job? Bad enough that the locker room is filthy.
Be aware!!!
This review was written after one year of membership with LA fitness.
Sales:
Dont believe anything the sales people are telling you unless its written down.
1. When we signed up for the membership we only needed the one club membership and we were making sure with the salesman that we will be able to tranfer the account when we moved away,
of course he said no problem and in reality when we moved and tried moving the account they forced us to get the multiclub memebership.
overall expense of another 20$ a month.
2. We asked if its possible to freeze the account for no extra charge or any charge at all while we were out of town, of course the salesman said there is no problem to do so,
in reality when we went over our bill we saw they charged us for half of the amount, instead of 40$ a month they changed 20$.
So there is no real way to freeze the account.
Staff:
1. Almost everytime i walk in to the gym i try and smile to the lady at the front but there are two ladies that are always giving me a hard time to come in for
absolutely no reason with theyre bad attitude.
2. I went over my bill and noticed a random 5$ charge from LA fitness, and it turns out that the same bad attitude lady in the front charged me for no reason.
Workout efficiancy:
We usually workout in the morning, or at evening around 8-9 (Not in the rush hour)
1. Its going to be impossible for you to find any weights lower than 20 pounds.
2. There are 3 squats cage and in the past 4 times I went to the gym for a leg workout I wasnt able to use them, they were always occupied and when i asked if i can join or wait until they finished they said they have over an hour until they finish.
I went to the reception and they said there is no time limit for the machine, and there is nothing they can do about it.
3. "Out of service" "scheduled for maintenance"
these are signs you are going to see very often and for very long periods, around 4 to 6 weeks until they are repaired .
4. Many times im finding myself looking for help because the machines are fully loaded with weights of 300 pounds and more.
because people dont care about other people or women like me.
Clean:
You can see the floors are cleaned eveyday, but you dont want to get in to the women's showers, last time I went there was a homeless lady swimming on the floor and screaming on everybody.
second thing I will attach a sample picture of one of the dirty machines that was in the same condition for over two months
I usually dont like writing bad reviews but this place is just so horrible.
I didnt manage to find anything good about this place.
For LA fitness if you care about your customers take care of there issues!!!
I've been a member for many years and I go mostly to this location because of its proximity to my house and also because of its size and choice of equipment. Definitely has everything one would need or expect... It is clean and they maintain equipment fairly well. Could be better. My only real gripe is that they did away with all plasma TVs ever since LA Fitness took over from Bally's. There was an awesome vibe before that is now gone. I have no idea why that is. Oh well
I joined in 82 when it was Bally's. Still there so that should tell you how I feel about it. I love it!
The pool is absolutely disgusting. Take note, it only smells and tastes chlorine when it contacts urine, bacteria etc. And this pool stinks!
One extra star is for the cool dip. Showers are poorly maintained if at all and nothing ever works as they should. Dirty locker room and showers. No paper towels in locker room, nor hair driers.
Not worth it, even though its a relatively cheaper option.
Serioduyl I have had my gym membership for four years
..it is the best of the best for just 30 $ i have access to all la fitness gym around California. The staff is super friendly . They makes feel like home .

Friendly staff, cheap parking for the location, also the gym is really big, been going here since it used to be the Bally total fitness. They have come the long way after many renovations and changes. Only thing it needs is more updated, working equipment and sanitation.

I prefer this location over the Miracle Mile one. More space, a bit cleaner. The employees are always nice and super helpful.

Beats going to the Mid-Wilshire 24 Hour Fitness. Less packed and way better parking as it is in a parking structure. They have lots of spinning machines, pool, dry sauna and etc.
I love this LA fitness, perfect location, great selection of equipment and weights. I love the customer service so smooth. It is definitely better than the one in WeHo, gross!!
Staff is friendly and helpful, especially the staff in the front desk. The females locker and restroom area is always nicely kept. Good place to work out. But it does get extremely packed from about 6pm-8pm.

The only reason I'm giving it a 1 Star is because of their crappy way of informing costumers about their policies that are direct and easy to comprehend. DO NOT, under any circumstances, sign up for the personal training they offer. It's a freaking scam. While the personal trainers themselves are fantastic and have demonstrated their desire to work one on one with their trainee, meet their needs and adjust, the way it works was just not worth my money. First off, I signed up for a personal trainer because I wanted to improve my fitness but I had told the guy in charge of personal fitness (Chris, who apparently doesn't work their anymore) that I was doing the LA Marathon and could not really comitt to a whole year because I was going to switch focus over to running. He said I could do the personal training for six months and to just talk to him when it came time so I can cancel the personal training service. SURPRISE! I found out that their is nothing he can do and I'm stuck paying for six months more than I had originally planned. I contact costumer service and they just send me an email basically stating that I committed to a full year which is DIFFERENT from what Chris had told me. Again, I was focusing on marathon training with some cross training, and thought, if I had no choice but to continue forking over my money I might as well use my PT sessions when I could. I finally reach the end of the EXTRA six months that I was tricked into having to pay with about 9-10 sessions left. Then March is marathon month and I was adjusting my fitness/diet to accommodate my less active life so I didn't want to use my PT sessions because I wanted to put my all, but with the LA Marathon so close, I wasn't gonna jeopardize months of training. A week after the marathon, I go to place a session with my PT to get me back at it. ANOTHER SURPRISE TO ME. All 9-10 of my sessions were just gone. IF I PAID for these sessions, shouldn't I be able to use them at my leisure depending on injuries or other fitness related recovery? AGAIN, DO NOT be fooled into their Personal Training programs because they just want a reason to take your money. I really liked both of my personal trainers and had been thinking about doing it again, but after this bad interaction with corporate costumer service and their complete lack of empathy, I'd rather go out and seek a private personal trainer.
I can't say anything about the employees at this location. I didn't have any issues with them, but the members are so stubborn. There are two hot tubs, they're both built the same way and have the capacity to fit plenty of people. The day I went there, was in the words of Stephen A. Smith, "blasphemous" I sat my towel down in the corner of one of the hot tubs. I sat right under it as I was in the tub and sat beside it when I was out of it in order to catch my breath. Oh my goodness though, the elderly couldn't get over the fact that I had their favorite jet stream. The pushy people sat right on top of me. They talked about me in a negative manner in a different language. Why they just couldn't sit across from me when there were eight other jets available or even hop in the hot tub adjacent to us with twenty available jet streams?? It is beyond me. They ruined my relaxation time and deserve whatever kind of karma comes their way.

Great place to work out. Always clean with top shelf equipment. Knowledgeable staff. The best gym...
Am in town for a few weeks and needed to use a gym - this one is next to my place so seemed most convenient. The gym isn't too bad even though equipment are a bit old. The issue is the type of people that go there especially the younger patrons some negative vibes and they certainly don't know gym way of dealing with others nor the equimenpmey. I don't recommend the place unfortunately
It's a gym. It has the equipment you need. They got basic machines with cables. Not enough free weights, since it's smaller not a lot of space compared to other gyms, so you may have to wait till someone finishes using the barbells sometimes. Not a lot of squat bars, will have to share sometimes if you want to finish your workout and you got to run. Sometimes can get a bit busy and hard to find your own room during peak hours I would say 5 to 8p. It's a little smaller than other LA Fitnesses. But I've always had this membership for over a decade. I'll still use it because it's convenient and nearby.
A good basic giant-gym with more than plenty of machines, classes, saunas, pool, weights and treadmills...and a very diverse crowd too. Formerly a bowling alley, this location is spacious across two floors with plenty of workout room for everyone. I'm downgrading it largely on the worn condition of the locker room and showers. The maintenance staff is omnipresent but overburdened with trying to keep the place fixed and clean.
Fortunately, it never feels overly crowded. I keep going there. Parking 35 cents in the multistory Erector Set garage on the property.
Large facilties with pool. Easy access parking. Avoid peak hours because it gets crowded.
WiFi is spotty. Parking is less than 50 cents but it gets crowded when there is events since there is a parking company that sells parking spots. They removed the toilet seat covers papers. Treadmills get busy when crowded. Good selection of weight machines. Group classes busy during evenings but there is still space to move.
People complain that it's busy but what gym isn't specially if you go between 5pm to 8 pm. The gym is huge and has an indoor running track, machines, and a decent area for free weights. They have classes and boxing bags.
Parking is 35 cents for as long as you are in the gym. People are friendly and share machines if it's too busy.
No gym has perfect showers or locker room. So everyone complaining why don't you stay home and workout there.
This location is my go-to L.A. Fitness. The equipment is generally sanitary and functioning. The staff are friendly and accommodating. The hours work for me; the place is usually open anywhere from 6am to 9pm/11pm. Men's bathroom could use a full-time attendant. Take advantage of your membership by using the pool, jacuzzis, weights and lots of cardio machines. Parking in the adjoining lot is 35 cents for 2.5 hours. Check it out!
A great place to workout if you know a lot of friends that trains here. Staffs and trainers are very friendly, restrooms are always cleaned. The downside is, gym is packed during peak hours 5-9pm. Dumbbells are everywhere, some are missing and some are broken. I've been training here for more than four years, so I'd got used to it. I almost forget, why 35 cents parking? No free?
If you have OCD this is not the gym to workout in. The ladies sauna room is always out of order there are bugs (roaches) in the locker room. The staff is unfriendly. This gym needs to be shut down for Renovations asap!!! No one is knowledgeable on the run of the gym. Most staff understand English but can not comprehend English to direct you in the right direction
Great equipment. Pretty clean. Currently updating the saunas, so hopefully that'll be worth the wait.
The pool is absolutely disgusting. Take note, it only smells and tastes chlorine when it contacts urine, bacteria etc. And this pools stinks!
One extra star is for the cool dip. Showers are poorly maintained if at all and nothing ever works as they should. Dirty locker room and showers. No paper towels in locker room, nor hair driers.
