I had previously written a review about this location but took it down as I didn't want to be overly critical as I was still going here. However, after having frozen my account, and still being charged with no resolution, I'm now prone to bring my review back up. Since the renovations, this location has become a place I have no desire going to. The weight machines are now oddly placed directly in front of all the cardio machines. So, It's odd to have to look at all the bros on the free weights, and it's just as odd being in that spot. Cable machines are very often broken / down. The new layout of the locker room makes no sense and often creates a situation where you need to put your bags and personal belongings on the floor because one person has taken up and entire bench which there are now only 3. No idea why they went away from the room-wide bench system. Bathrooms, for the longest time the showers smelled...well...like someone was constantly going to the bathroom in it. The first shower stall was out of commission for weeks, leaving only two stalls to use. I haven't been in 6 months, but I hope this has changed. The last thing that drove me crazy the last time I was there was the staff. There was one particular male staff member who was more concerned with his own personal workout, then helping people waiting at the counter. I had to walk around the facility to try and find someone, and funny enough he had actually come behind the desk to get wipes for himself and ignored me (wearing casual clothes, then put back on his PF shirt). Again, 6 months ago, so I hope this behavior has changed. What is incredibly frustrating is their freeze vs. cancellation policy. They claim that they only freeze accounts for 3 months at a time, and that when you freeze they have a "rigorous" process to explain this... I'm sure the 18 year old kid who was brand new really did a rigorous job at that time as I requested a foreseeable freeze. Fast forward, I was charged for multiple months without stepping foot in ANY PF location. When I asked if there was anything they could do, the answer was a flat no, and instead offered to help calculate whether it was better to cancel or freeze again and "next time set myself a calendar reminder"... or, how about you see the simple fact I have not been in ONCE and perhaps extend a courtesy credit towards future months, towards my annual membership fee(going on multiple years) or even a credit back to my account.... Nope, they clearly don't care and would rather churn you and keep your money. Go elsewhere.

I don't have many requisites for a good gym, but this gym meets them except for one. Which is why I took away 1 star. It has clean equipment, clean bathroom, and clean lockers. It can get packed, especially during the New years resolution rush, but there's always something open if you don't mind changing your workout a bit. My only complaint is that they close too early for my liking. I became used to their 24 hours 5 days a week from back in the day, then they shortened it to 11pm now it's 10pm monday-thursday and 9pm on Fridays and 7pm on weekends. I'm a night workout enjoyer, and this cuts my workouts short most of the time. I still give 4 stars cause this is just a personal problem, not a problem with the gym itself.

The staff is outstanding. Words don't suffice to express the excellence of Kim and Scott, the two main employees working the afternoon shifts. These two employees go beyond customers' expectations and treat everyone the same. Like I say, I don't how to explain Scott and Kim's greatness. They are outstanding!

I like that this particular gym doesn’t have every kind of fluorescent light on like some of the other planet fitnesses do at night - theirs are way too overly bright. I also like that this location seems very diverse in age, ethnicity, and everything else. It feels a lot more open than the other locations, but an area of improvement would be to add more medicine balls, benches, into the large open stretching area. Also communicating ahead of time to people that you can’t sign up in person anymore and that it can now only be done online.

An effective and challenging workout and a very friendly welcoming atmosphere. They also have a ‘monkey barre’ babysitting room a few times per week, my daughter loved it. Highly recommend if you’re in Andover and looking to stay fit
