Planet Fitness is a popular fitness center that aims to provide a welcoming and comfortable environment for its members. With over 2,400 locations across the country, Planet Fitness is known for its "Big Fitness Energy™," which promises to give members a post-workout glow all day long. Customers have generally positive experiences at Planet Fitness. The facilities are described as clean and well-maintained, with new equipment and a noticeable fresh air quality. The staff is often praised for being polite and helpful, even assisting members in navigating the gym. The music and atmosphere are also appreciated, with one member describing it as "nice and mellow." However, some reviews highlight issues like dirty conditions and unkempt bathrooms, with one mentioning that the gym looks like it is never vacuumed and that toilet paper can be hard to find. There are concerns about equipment being out of order for over six months, reflecting some laziness in maintenance. Safety concerns are also noted, as one reviewer described a man who comes in with an open can of beer in a brown paper bag and just stares at the ladies, which makes some members feel unsafe, especially since he appears to be under the influence. Despite these issues, other customers mention that the front desk staff at the Howard Beach location are friendly, and the machines are in good condition. The locker rooms are kept clean, and members can come and go without long waits. Overall, Planet Fitness continues to be a reliable and pleasant fitness option for many members, offering a variety of amenities and a generally welcoming atmosphere, though some locations may face challenges with cleanliness and safety.
