Best Gyms with Child Care/child Watch near Los-angeles, California

Have been coming here for a while now and for the past few weeks, I had noticed that some of the machines had a missing pin to hold the weights. As of today. 90% of the machines there are useless since the pins are all gone and if there are loose ones. People take them to the machine that they want to use. To make it worse. Staff had put PENS into the weights where the pin is supposed to be. I will most likely canceling my membership here. Here are 3 pictures I took on different machines to show how they "fixed" the issue

Just tried this location for the first time. The machines are newer than at other locations, TVs, Bluetooth, pairing to Apple Watch, generally less creaking and need for WD-40. It’s a Saturday and it wasn’t super crowded. Didn’t have to wait on any equipment. What could it work on? There isn’t much order to their strength machines. The other locations have better flow as far as areas to concentrate on certain muscles. The employees are either super shy or hate all of us. This is the only spot where you’re not greeted with sparkles, but how long am I really gonna hang with them up front? Two hours free parking. Don’t forget to validate in the little box on the right side of the counter … cos they won’t do it for you. 🤣

(Update) Visited again after a week and was pleased to see that all the machines now have the pins! Thank you for the quick action—this is definitely a 5-star gym! I look forward to continuing my workouts here!! ____________________ I've been here for a month and appreciate the clean facilities and friendly staff. Recently, though, most machines have been missing pins, creating a cycle where members take pins for themselves, leaving others without!! Staff mentioned new pins are coming this week, so I’ll update my review soon.

Its a $15 membership so its good for the price. My small complaints are that paper towels for cleaning run out fast during peak hours and machines are limited so you’ll probably be waiting for the ones you want when they’re busy. Otherwise it’s pretty good. Free parking for 2 hours and all that

Been a member over a year and loved coming here. Now, none of the machines work because someone stole the pins. Perhaps leaving this review will help in making the necessary fixing. And please, you contact the manager directly and not your clients.

🪳🪳🪳🪳🪳🪳🤮🤮🤮🪳🤢🪳🪳🪳🪳🪳 This is a man's locker room, u can see BABY ROACH and look at that keep moving everywhere, YMCA said they were changing locker rooms a few months ago, and I remember you guys put some sign front of locker rooms, but nothing changed Do you guys clean the shower room?? who is the YMCA general manager? Where the hell is the YMCA using their money? And also There are only 5 or fewer fans in this big building, is someone embezzling money? Or is this just letting it go? It's so disgusting 🤢 here I don’t want here membership anymore

I’ve been a member of the YMCA for a while, but after my recent experience with Harrison at the front desk, I’m seriously considering canceling my membership. I went to ask for help with my barcode, and Harrison was unbelievably rude. He told me to go to the YMCA Hollywood location instead and seemed shocked that I was even a member. When I mentioned my account, he asked if I knew the password, even though there’s a photo of me on the account. He didn’t seem to like my attitude and became very impatient and short with me, which is when my attitude shifted. To make matters worse, after this interaction, he deactivated my account without any explanation. The complete lack of professionalism, courtesy, and respect is unacceptable. I expect far better from an organization like the YMCA that’s supposed to value its members. I’ll be taking my membership elsewhere if this is how customers are treated just because you don’t know how to solve a very simple technical issue that sometimes can get frustrating you just don’t tell a customer to go to the next one. That’s not how you treat someone especially in a place like ymca. I have my little cousins that goes there it’s supposed to be safe space for families and kids. I was very very disappointed with how I was being treated.

The people that run this are thieves. I needed to place a hold on my membership and did so online through December. today Nov 2, I got charged for the membership fee! I took screenshot of the hold confirmation email from Oct 15 and my bank screenshot today and hope it takes less than 5 business days to read my email and then finally refund my fee? No excuse for this type of business practice. I won't be going back.

I’ve been coming here for years. It’s very clean, the staff is friendly, they have most equipment I need, and an indoor pool and sauna which I love. That being said, it’s cramped, it’s small, there’s not enough room for as many people go there at peak hours. Another thing that I don’t like is since covid they changed the hours so that it closes at 8 pm, it’s closed for 3 hours in the middle of the day and it’s closed weekends. There is no reason to keep the hours like this from what I see! Overall I like the gym, but please change back the hours

I love there is not speakers and everyone can listen whatever they want in their airpods… there are more space downstairs without using, not using all their potencial

Perfect value for the price. Family membership for 100$! We signed up because of the swimming lessons for the child, but I also tried swimming - and everything was clean, the pool wasn’t crowded and sauna/steam/jacuzzi were a great bonus too! I like the option of reserving the line. I am not going to be using the gym - it seems a little too crowded and not well equipped for me. But i tried yoga and I will be doing it from time to time.

So me and my son went to the YMCA for first time and I let him swim for one hour but before that I thought that they have dryers and every boys girls women’s and men’s room locker room and there was no thdryers in boys and girls room so my son had to get out of YMCA with wet hair and I’m worried about him to don’t get sick. by the way, when I ask the staff who they were there for help help me they were not they don’t have any good manners and they were rude and they didn’t help me anymore even they dident care. i’m so sorry for this situation. I thought the YMCA it’s the place for the family care and member care and I didn’t know that’s much careless.

Not worth 105$, because classes and swimming pool always full and they will hold your right to reserve spot for classes if you don’t check in with the coat h even though nobody tell you to do that. To cancel your membership you have to email and that takes 30 days to get processed. Insane!!!! Get cheaper gyms with way more benefits. The staff always not helpful and can’t fix anything!!!! Otherwise the facility clean and nice.

This place is always packed no matter what time you go there. The equipment is limited and it's constantly in use so you end up waiting and practically begging for a turn. The most ridiculous part is that there is only one portable fan for all the rooms and whenever you go to the cardio room for example it's not there so you're left struggling to breathe with everyone sweating! They say we have to move it back and forth, sorry! By the way they charge you for the parking daily! And almost impossible to find a spot in the area! On top of that, people are constantly dropping weights and not a single employee says anything when they see that. It's just so annoying and distracting. Not recommended at aaaaalllll!

When the Westside Family YMCA closed down, I became a member of David Barton Gym and then Equinox. Now I am definitely glad to be going to the Collins and Katz YMCA for lots of reasons. The first is it is near me to drive and not too far of a walk as well. I want to mention some people, Kalena is very nice and helpful and patient. Joseph is also very nice and helpful and I enjoy talking to both of them. As for working out I used to not have a routine and so I didn't enjoy going to the gym. A major change happened when I took personal training sessions with Carl. I learned a lot from our sessions, because Carl is a fantastic trainer with lots of knowledge and expertise. Thanks to our sessions, I am going consistently to the gym and I am loving working out and am motivated to see the progress I can make and see great results. So these are my thoughts, thank you and have a great day!

The Griffin Club Los Angeles is a great spot for those seeking a mix of fitness, socializing, and relaxation. The facilities, including the tennis and pickleball courts, are well-maintained, and the fitness center is modern and fully equipped. The pools are a highlight, offering a perfect escape on sunny days. The dining options are solid, though the menu could use a bit more variety. The ambiance is upscale yet welcoming, making it a pleasant space for members to connect. However, the membership fees are on the higher side, and at times, the club can feel a bit crowded during peak hours. Overall, it’s a wonderful club with plenty to offer, but there’s room for small improvements to make it truly exceptional.

This place was awesome. Although I was just a visitor... if I lived in LA I would make it my home. The staff was amazing and efficient and the food was nice. Just a great environment

Too many kids running around, amenities not that great. Management doesn't care about the staff - They get paid the lowest. Had a server telling me how half of their gratuity is being taken by the club and they barely make anything in tips.

Excellent day for the pool in LA with the Balakrishnan family!! The pool was warm and the drinks COLD!!

I initially got a membership for tennis and they lied to me about having quiet spaces and tennis program for older teens. I went to the club to get work done and all I could hear were children shouting and screaming. When trying out their “older tennis teen class” (supposedly with 17,18 yr olds) it was actually filled will 11 year olds…and was told that the only other tennis class option was a live-ball session with older men…The initial fee was 2,000 before even paying for the membership…def not worth it unless you only go in the morning or are a mom with kids that need to be entertained…It feel like your at a children's play park more than half the time and the food is mid for the amount you pay for a membership.

Do you like games? Have you played the memory match game? Well then you'll love it here. Try finding the other pair of weights to match the one you are looking for at this gym. This place might of have gotten a remodel, but either or- this YMCA's staff are lazy to clean up the night before ( I was here at 11am- highly doubt someone came early in the morning to make this mess) or I am ashamed of my hispanic community for being this dirty and unorganized and even less-- mindful of others. Either which way, I came here because I was in the area, but sure sucks for who ever comes to this gym because I'll take my self elsewhere.

This gym is not sport club la nor prime time. In the same line with 24 hour fitness gym, club one etc. For $50 per month, it gives great value and plus they validate parking which is very rare in the city. Another plus is that they are fairly brand new with nice steam room and sauna. The bathrooms are clean. I like it. I think I'm signing up!

This place needs new management all mens restrooms were closed not working then the fans are absolutely disgusting clearly not cleaned. Sticking to the one in Torrance.

If You Have Kids, This is NOT the right Gym for your kids. Besides this Gym being dirty and lack of AC in some rooms and the lockers smelling like urine and hairs on the floor; this Gym definitely does not treat family Gym members equally and fairly when it comes to the usage of the exercising facility. My 11 year old kid wanted to exercise along with me in the cycling and treadmill room, but the staff refused my kid's entry because he was under 13, but then the staff said that if I paid $20 extra aside from what we're already paying for "our membership", my kid would have access along with one of their staff no matter the age. Because even seen 5 and 8 year old kids in the cycling bikes as we walked by. I work hard for my money and pay my monthly membership for my kids and myself, and for what? for my kids to not be able to exercise and make a positive healthy use of the money we're paying for this expensive membership! when all they have is access to the babysitting room and the pool. In that case might as well stay home right? The staff at the Wilmington Y are thief's, because I know the one in San Pedro has access to the exercise facility for the kids included with their membership as it states in its contract and as it should be. P.S . WORST FACILITY AND CONS AT THAT!

My son loves to go to the gym here these people are very friendly and they do a great job! Safe place
