I brought my friend with me and he loved it as well. It's a nonstop high intensity interval training workout. If you're looking for less treadmill and more body weight workout this is the place to be. Try it!

These machines have been out of order for 3 weeks. January is busy time at the gym. Fix your machines!!! Front desk staff is amazing tho!

Like any gym there are great hours to go and terribly over crowded hours. The Manager runs a tight ship here and it is appreciated. The staff is terrific, friendly and seemingly enjoy being here. Now... get off your phone and workout!

I enjoy this gym. The machines are updated. The gym area and bathrooms are clean and the workout environment is energizing. It can get busy during the day. The early morning or late evening times are less hectic...Enjoy it.

(Updated) Hard to beat the price for a NYC gym which is the main positive for this place. There is usually 3 or 4 employees standing in the front entrance talking or standing around instead of maintaining the facility which is my biggest complaint. When more than half the weights are in the wrong location so you have to waste your workout time looking for them while staff stands around, there's a problem. Please do a little more policing of customers to ensure they follow the most basic of gym rules! Also, the hydro massage is constantly broken! Why am I a black member if the extra benefits aren't available?

The Gym and the equipment are good, the staff is very friendly.
The problem is people training out there ! Today someone stole my Sports Bag, Ray Ban Sun Glasses and of course my clothes from the locker room (and yes it was locked) but somehow he had a key that could open my Master Lock. I filed a Theft Report to the NYPD.

Update: They just upgraded their Cardio machines, I guess it's a good thing.

Large place. Good machines. I like the 30 minute full body work out and the price for the best membership is very affordable! Less than $24. You can't beat that. I don't know why you would go anywhere else!!!

I really like the showers here because they have tall glass doors for people to take a shower is peace. lastly, they only have long lockers, which is great, because you can put a tall umbrella in the locker.

it's a great place although i just wish that the bodybuilding and fit looking people here would be very easy to get along with.

Great place is you like to work out with dumbbells and ride the treadmill. I found the lack of free weights made it difficult to work out consistently. The machines are nice but I only use them to supplement my weight training. I found the staff of the location particularly apathetic and unhelpful. Used the lockers once to store my belongings and the restrooms were gross.

Nice gym, very good space for cardio. It can gets too crowded and young Latinos sometimes take too long on the same machine. Mostly clean and staff is friendly.

This place is disgusting filled with perverts ! On top of that this place is always packed! Limited machines u really have to go around 6am to get a good workout. They really need to open another one close by!

Well, this is not a real gym. I would say they are more focused in cardio. No free bar to do bench press, squads or deathlift. No chalk either. If you are a regular, the machines they have will work for you.

I started my membership by having an instructor which tailored a program to meet my fitness needs. I was surprised that the instructor quit the next day and they didn't bother telling me until the following week. I don't recommend that branch at all.

CAN YOU PLEASE BUT A BIN FOR RECYCLING BOTTLES? RIGHT NOW THEY DONT EXIST OR ARE IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND. Thanks!

Otherwise...

It's a great location with a very friendly and professional staff but I am very disappointed w the lack of equipment available. I hope this changes soon as the experience could be much better. I'd pay $2 more or even up to $10 to just have the basics available. For example, there are no free weight benches, no free weight squat racks, no incline and decline free weight benches, no box jumping steps, etc. I've never seen such creativity by those who go to the gym in order to attempt these exercises. For anyone who is new to fitness, like myself, you'd think a place named Planet Fitness would offer these basic items. Even my grandmothers retirement community in Ohio has these at her gym (no joke!). I know from talking to a lot of the members there, that this is something they want and would really enjoy. It's not about lack of space either. There's PLENTY of room. You just need like 3 free weight benches, 1 incline and 1 decline bench, 2 squat racks and that's it. Maybe we can start a donation box? I hope someone reading this takes this into consideration. Otherwise it's a nice, clean gym and I'd recommend it to others but when it's time to change up your exercise routine, just know your options to try new things is limited. I just hope they make changes soon.

It's not the best PF I have been to I had issue with staff in the pass but this is no longer happening. The air is a bit funky and the equipment needs more maintains all treadmill feet need to be adjusted they shake alot when running.

The mornings are always packed and the evenings are Super packed it's best to come here at 12 a.m. to get a good workout but the gym is kept clean at least

I Never feel comfortable going here. The guys that go here are pigs ( including one of their trainers) they never seem to leave woman alone to work out in peace. Its way too crowded and even if i were to go early theirs already a bunch of guys crowding up all the weight equipment. I only go here cause its the only gym araound , but after my contract ends ill just work out at home.

Very well lit, clean and the workers were great. I had orientation and Fransisco showed me the machines, had me used the ones I would be starting off on. Additionally, they have a massage chair and bed that are fanastic. I highly recommend Planet Fitness at 3799 Broadway (157.-158 Street)

It'll get the job done. It's a pretty good planet fitness.

I came in here to simply transfer my membership after not being able to online and nobody was willing or able to help me, despite wasting my time for an extended period. Now I have to wait until Monday to talk to the manager at my original gym just to process this pathetically easy request.

October 18, 2017 11:17

Place is kept clean, cardio machines are alwasy available, and you can usually get on the weight machines without too much wait. If you like using free weights, however, they can be a challenge to get sometimes.

October 18, 2017 11:17

Wonderful place! Workers very friendly. Everyone doing there own exercise minding own business, no one bothers nobody..I recommend this gym definitely!

Been a member since April and I do like the space. The machines are usually always working and clean. The staff is friendly. The upkeep on making sure there are paper towels to wipe machines down before and after use needs work (there is a specific one that is always empty by the elliptical and treadmill - also there isn't another close one by it and if there is that one is empty) . Also the women's bathroom needs to maintained more. Almost every time I go in there it's dirty, like always dirty, not an exaggeration.
