About Planet Fitness

Planet Fitness is a budget-friendly gym with over 2,400 locations, offering a positive atmosphere with "Big Fitness Energy™" to boost energy levels. Members praise the spacious, clean facilities and the variety of equipment available, including bikes with scenic biking trails. The gym is open early and closes late, providing convenient hours for workouts. The monthly membership fee is $20, allowing guests to join for each visit, making it more affordable than competitors like the Y or Crunch. Staff are generally described as friendly, helpful, and always ready to assist. Members appreciate the welcoming environment and the helpfulness of the workers, who greet everyone with a smile and wish them well as they leave. One member expressed gratitude for management, specifically mentioning a staff member named Aaron, who guided them through the membership process, answered questions, and made them feel comfortable in a short amount of time. Although the gym does not have a fitness trainer on-site, Aaron explained how to use the app for virtual trainers and workout classes, enhancing the experience. The showers are appreciated by many, especially those in the RV and Van Life community who use the gym for a shower. The facility has three stalls, with one fully functional and others missing a shower head or a hook outside. The shower drain sometimes backs up, but the shower pan does not overflow. The showers are maintained clean, although there may be some buildup in the drain. The locker room can be noisy at times, and changing stalls are equipped with 3-foot stools, which may be awkward for tying shoes. Overall, the bathrooms and facilities are kept clean, and the environment is friendly, fun, and judgment-free.

    The staff is very nice and helpful and there's a lot of different machines to choose from, however the benches are always taken and there's not enough dumbbells for everyone

    Friendly staff and environment. Effective sanitation and machines have good quality for the low price. Link alarm never set off. Could use some more cable machines. Not very busy, effective 45 minute workouts are extremely easy to complete.

    This place is clean machines, they all work and staff is always pleasant. I will say the treadmills are on the 3rd floor so all the hot air is trapped up there. It would be great if they could blast the AC up there even in the winter because a light jog feels like you're running in a sauna. Or open some windows in the winter because it's hot as heck up there.
