LA Fitness - Palm Beach Gardens (FL)

3 /5 NICK MENNELL: I’ve gone to this LA Fitness location a few times now, and overall, its been a decent experience that meets most of my fitness needs. The gym has a good (typical LA Fitness) layout with plenty of space, and it rarely feels overcrowded even during peak hours. The staff is friendly and helpful - always willing to answer questions or provide assistance when needed. The locker rooms are generally clean, and the overall atmosphere is welcoming for both serious fitness enthusiasts and casual gym-goers. What keeps this location from earning more stars is the condition of some of the equipment. Several machines were out of order during my recent visits (with those "Sorry, Out of Order" signs that seem to have been there for weeks). Much of the cardio equipment appears outdated compared to other fitness centers in the area, and some weight machines show significant wear and tear. The Power Smoothie bar inside is a nice touch, and the group fitness classes offer good variety, though the schedule could be more accommodating for those who work traditional hours. If LA Fitness would invest in updating their equipment and ensuring faster maintenance of broken machines, this location could easily be a 4 or 5-star facility. Still, its a solid option for a standard gym experience in Palm Beach Gardens if you dont mind working around a few out-of-commission machines.

4 /5 J Gould: Employees are fabulous! Friendly, polite, helpful. The facility is sparking clean with several cleaners taking care of the facility but, as mentioned by others, the equipment is very rusty. LA Fitness should invest in better equipment. Gym is crowded on a Tuesday morning but it is spacious here. Plenty of equipment. Racquetball courts are open and in good shape. Good place to work out.

1 /5 Franz 76: I decided to go to a different location, and I may cancel my membership. The reason is this guy who comes to the gym wearing ladies workout outfits. I dont criticize "lifestyles," but if you are a man who has such impulses, you should do it in the privacy of your home. Respect goes both ways, regardless of what your sexual orientation may be. It is unfair that the entire gym must conform to one single individual. It surprises me that LA Fitness management allows this, considering there are children who walk to the gym for swimming lessons. It demonstrates a lack of finesse and consideration for the rest of the gym members. I dont need to witness this nonsense when I come to work out, especially when Im paying for it.

1 /5 Alyssa Trapani: The actual gym part is nicer than the location on Okeechobee. The locker room is pretty decent but the bathroom is old and gross. The pool area is stinky and humid. As a female swimmer Ive never felt more uncomfortable as I was gawked at and had a male follow me up and down the lane. I come to workout, not be stared at by multiple people. Probably wont be back at this location.

3 /5 Ross J: I have to add to a review left by Franz 76. He is 100% on point and I have reported the same issue to the woman at the front desk. I have been to both the Alton location and North Lake. Alton is by far a nicer gym but I actually prefer North Lake. It’s laid out well and the people are nice but I will admit the bathrooms are pretty bad. The men’s room stinks and finding paper to dry your hands can be a challenge. The aforementioned issue is really bad. I’m referring to the Franz 76 review. This issue needs to be addressed as several people have felt the same way. This is not about judgement of someone’s lifestyle, but more about the fact that it’s totally inappropriate. Let’s see if management does anything.
