Best Gyms with 24 Hour Access near Huntington-beach, California

I have been to a lot of gyms over the last 40 years including being a member of 24hr fitness for the last 25 years. The 24hr fitness Huntington Beach Bella Terra location on Center Street is hands down the worst gym I have ever been to. 1. The parking is insufficient. 2. Only 1 of 6 sinks works in the restroom and the sink only puts out cold water. 3. The restrooms, sinks, and showers are extremely dirty and unkempt. 4. The showers are old with low pressure and you can see the person next to you through the moldy glass. 5. Several showers don't even work at all. 6. The lockers are old, crowded, and moldy. 7. The gym is small, older style equipment, and low selection of equipment. Without a doubt, the worst gym you will experience anywhere.

Just a follow up from my last review...while addressing the easy to fix issues at this gym some things are still being ignored...Such as broken workout equipment for over two weeks...Aswell as the on going smell of urine throughout the restrooms...Urinals are literally falling off the wall and bathroom stalls continue to be unclean and unsanitary...Broken lovker doors or no doors at all...Just frustrating and completly baffled by this...I mean with all the money you guys make from memberships what is going on ? and Why can't you keep up with repairs like you keep up with extracting membership fees from people's bank accounts...SMH 🤷‍♀️

Bathrooms are always dirty and the most popular machines like the leg press and rear delt/pec fly are often out of service. It’s been over a month on the leg press. Hopefully management or corporate sees this because it’s not okay - especially the cleanliness part. Also like many other people commented, how are you going to call yourself 24 hour fitness and close at 8pm on weekends? Time to start rebranding or else deliver on the one thing that gives you an advantage over other gyms.

Gym is conveniently close to where I live but unfortunately it lacks the basic sanitation. In the 6 months that I have attended I have seen the maintenance staff at least three times. Sure you can chalk this is up to timing, however it the womens bathrooms is gross. Sinks and toilet bowls have stains and there is always some foul odor. Upstairs two to three machines are broken. I unfortunately made the error of buying a year round pass and am contractually obligated to go to make my moneys worth. Staff is there but they just hangout at the front. And the water bottle station upstairs has not been fixed or refilled, so the only that works is the one downstairs that tastes like chlorine.

Corey, the manager, was super awesome with helping me renew my gym membership! He was super friendly and made me feel welcome. I do like that this gym is way less crowded than the 24 hour off Brookhurst. I've come in the early morning, midday and night, and never felt packed like sardines! Some reviews mention machines being outdated, but they're not bad at all! They still work fine and you can put in a great workout.

This place is Disgusting the bathrooms are always dirty and falling apart showers barelywork smells like Urine everywhere...they are not safe and sanitary...homeless people live in multiple lockers and hangout in the locker room to watch TV...Equipment is not cleaned thoroughly daily not even weekly...wish I could get my yearly prepaid membership refunded...you guys need to step up your game .

I have been going to this location for approximately three years. Over the last few months, this location has had repeated broken equipment that has not been fixed for weeks if not months. They have removed equipment that was popularly used, and never replaced. In addition, they open at 5 AM Monday through Friday if somebody shows up to open the door. This particular location has become unreliable and no longer a Fitness location for me. It's a bummer because it's right down the street from my house. My membership comes due in January. I will be looking at other fitness centers like LA fitness or some other locations.

I went to this gym for the first time last week. I spoke with a representative at the front, who didn't honor my 3-day free pass because I hadn't updated my license to my new Huntington Beach address. He then told me I had to sign up for a membership but said he could lower the initiation fee to $1, and I would have 5 days to cancel. I asked him if the plan he selected for me was month-to-month, and he said yes I put you on the month-to-month plan. I later found out that he had signed me up for a 12-month commitment. Thankfully, I cancelled before the 5 days. WATCH OUT FOR THESE GUYS! SUPER SHADY MOVE 24.

I signed up and canceled on my phone because I was in the middle of moving and I called to confirm it was cancelled cuz something didn’t seem right and they said “yeah your good to go” and so I assumed because a staff member told me my membership was canceled that it was, however I’ve been charged since July. So I called to let them know and was confronted with the rudest personI ever met in my life named raymond I swear I don’t even know how this person got a job here to be honest not to be mean but he was like “Mabey you should be better with your finances” like dude yeah mabey but mabey whoever told me my membership was cancelled shouldn’t have told me it was when it wasn’t Welcome to 24 hour fitness I wanna escalate this to corporate not just for the fact I was told my member ship was cancelled (I get it mistakes happen) but for HOW RUDE CONDESCENDING AND MEAN RAYMOND IS. Good god it’s actually unbelievable

Gym itself isn’t bad, not the cleanest but not dirty either. Two platforms and doesn’t get too busy. One of the cable machines is fraying and I got a metal splinter but honestly no biggie, I pulled it right out. The bad thing about this location is 100% the crowd. Ive tried out a good amount of locations across socal and norcal. I’m not sure what it is but it feels like most of the people that go here are convinced they are the most important person in there and are generally very cranky. Not a lot of camaraderie between members compared to other locations. Personally I think the crowd can make or break a workout so I’m hoping this changes moving forward but considering this is Huntington Beach I highly doubt it. Edit: Came back and they’ve fixed the fraying cable machine. I’m not sure if it’s because of this review or if someone else said something but regardless, they changed it out very quick. Crowd is still really not great but I know there’s not much they can do about it.
