1 /5 Alacrify: This location of LA Fitness was nice for the first year after they opened in approximately 2014. But quickly went downhill after that. I stopped going in 2022 because the lack of courtesy by the staff and the cleanliness had gotten so bad it became intolerable and any of my verbal complaints went into deaf ears. The gym, and especially the bathrooms, have been very dirty ever since 2015. In the bathrooms the same hairball and used toilet paper piece would be on the floor in the corner in the same spot for weeks, to the point I ended up taking a picture to document how long it took for someone to clean them up. The Lake Washington gym is pretty dirty too and the staff there are extremely rude to both me and my spouse on more than one occasion. The Hollywood Blvd. location seems to be a bit cleaner but the staff there ignore people unless they are 20 something Instagram types, they are not friendly to anyone of middle age at all. The group fitness staff was hit or miss. A few of the really excellent teachers would not stay because of low pay and the ones that stayed the longest and some are still there are the ones that have little to no fitness education and as a phys ed major I can tell the difference. Some of the staff and teachers would give really dangerous health and fitness advice to me and other members, to the point where I am surprised they arent sued fairly often for causing injury. I recently ran into a former staff member and he told me how very little they actually get paid there, its barely minimum wage, so what can you expect? You get what you pay for. I will not patronize another LA Fitness, Esporta or other brand name gyms from this same parent company ever again.
