LA Fitness

I like the person working

Been a member for 5 years and the atmosphere is always welcoming and professional. A huge part of that is due to the manager, Sarah. She is friendly and approachable so that members feel free to give feedback and ask questions. The staff’s friendliness and professionalism are a direct reflection of the manager, who models this excellent behavior daily.
There are closer gyms for me but this one is worth the extra driving.

My family and I came to this LA Fitness while visiting GA. We are members back at home. I was a little concerned by the reviews but checked it out. I don’t really know what people are complaining about. This gym was 100x better than the one back home. Newer machines, weights and a functional training area. Gym was clean (I did not go into the bathroom or sauna).

Theres an awful smell that hits you as soon as you walk in… it almost smell like sewer, looks like instead of addressing whatever the problem is they have opted to have the front doors wide open which causes the hot humid outside air to rush in, it’s so hot and stuffy in there! This has been going on on and off for a long time. It’s the closest gym to me but I’m probably going to switch as soon as I get a promotional offer from somewhere else

Lately, the gym has simply been leaving its doors wide open; the heat is unbearable—not to mention the foul odor inside. The machines are in dire need of replacement, and the stair climbers are constantly broken; I’ve even seen people unplugging them just to see if they’ll start working. This is outrageous, especially considering we pay for a gym that isn't exactly affordable compared to others in terms of pricing. Last week, I went to the women's sauna, and there was a very strong smell of marijuana. Another issue: I pay for this gym membership specifically to use the studio where Zumba classes are held, yet a woman rudely demanded that I leave—even though I was already there doing my workout before she even arrived.

Very good gym. Enough and quality material.

I’ve tried to reach them multiple times via email and message. They don’t seem to care and keep telling me to come in during work hours to speak with a manager, which is unrealistic. It feels like they don’t want any written record of the issue. I’ve never received a single call back.

The pool and spa area are disgusting. It took over a month for the mirror in the women’s restroom to be fixed. They even allow people to work out barefoot, which is a safety and hygiene concern. I’ve brought this up to staff four different times and nothing has changed.

Avoid this location if you can. I’m already looking for a new gym.

UPDATE. 2 months later and the facilities manager refuses to call me and hasn't taken care of the members who work out BARE FOOTED.

UPDATE. 3 months later. 625 am. Men still working out BAREFOOT

There should be a designated time for boxing

I had a horrible experience my first time visiting . I lost my wallet . A associate called and left a voice mail saying she had found my wallet . 2 weeks later when I seen the voicemail . I called the location and everyone there had no clue what I was talking about . Even though I had been left a voicemail saying they had it in their possession . My wallet was stolen by a staff member and nothing was done about it .

LA FITNESS Wade Green is mostly good! The kids that work there, don’t keep up with things that run out at times like hand sanitizer and filter for the water machine. And the handprints on the entrance doors as with most places including grocery stores and convenience stores, seem to always have smudge marks, and finger prints on them, definitely making a nice petrie dish, and breeding grounds for bacteria! The grouting on tiles in the mens room should be at least cleaned once a month!
However, all the equipment is in working order as always there, and the sauna and jacuzzi are two amenities lacking in most clubs today!! Overall I would say B minus!
