This place sucked prior to the remodeling. Now it feels like a real gym! No squeaky equipment and lots of squat racks.
Update: I have been going here on and off for a few years now and it is one of my favorite LA fitnesses in the nation. There are plenty of bench presses and the bars are all new. It is lacking in a sit down row machine. The locker room is usually pretty clean. The ab area next to the windows is nicely secluded. I really appreciate the staff working with me to upgrade my membership. Again, highly recommend.
