| - I have been going to this gym for a while because it is the closest gym that meets my needs. The good is that the current general manager is the best I have seen there. She replaced the worst (Steve). There are a couple of personal trainers who are pretty good, I have achieved some good results with Don and would recommend him without reservation. For a while the pool burned my eyes, but in mid December they drained it and refilled it (new general manager), so now it doesn't burn my eyes. They add new equipment here and there. They need to get rid of a couple of the goober machines and add another low row or two, a lat pull down and a cable station. Those are the stations I am always waiting for.
The place is clean and well maintained. That is my greatest complaint. The cleaning crew is ALWAYS there, vacuuming by the machine you want to use, washing the windows and trim of the courts and yoga studio, dusting the machines you want to use. They always seem to be underfoot. I wish they could do their cleaning and maintenance in the off hours. I guess this is a corporate decision. This is half a star ding.
Another half star ding is that the gym is warm. I don't know if the temp s controlled in CA, or if they are not allowed to put the thermostat any lower than 72, but it is uncomfortably warm from about June through October. It needs about 5 or 6 big ceiling fans to stir the air, especially around the cardio equipment or drop the temp to about 65. The story is that corporate says no.
I wish they opened earlier on Saturday. I would workout at 6:30 am on Saturday but it doesn't open till 8:00, which is too late for my work schedule.
None of my complaints are enough to make me stop coming, but I do wish LA Fitness would address these issues.
