Best Gyms with Functional Training Equipment near Federal-way, Washington

First time attending and very dissatisfied. From the moment we arrived the front desk staff were unprofessional, laughing and gossiping. Corresponding with each other over text message about others at the facility. They openly talked about this in front of my family as we checked in. My husband and my young 2-year old got a day pass to go swimming. I proceeded to ask about the showers because I noticed the locker rooms being remodeled. We were told “there are signs” to the showers they have temporarily set up for folks. As we were swimming, the life guards were rude and continuously condescending toward me and my husband. If my 2 year old made a mistake like facing the wrong direction on the slide after she went down she was accused of “climbing” up. My daughter has a sensory processing disorder and loves water so she was feeling the water going down the slide with her hand. Nobody was waiting to go down at the top of the slide. It was just her using the slide. I understand they don’t want kids climbing up the slide for safety but there is a way to approach the parents respectfully about it. As we were leaving the pool, my husband asked a lifeguard where the showers were. He pointed to a door. I grabbed my 2year old and as we opened the door it was apparent that the showers they installed during the locker room remodel were OUTSIDE. it is 8:15pm at night in JANUARY. I took my family into one of the small showers they have set up in trailers outside. Turned the nozzle to get the shower running and it was ICE COLD. At that point, my toddler was shivering and crying before even getting under the shower. I was very upset. We had to make the decision to put our clothes on over our wet swimwear and leave. As we left the trailer we saw a lifeguard outside watching us. My husband asked him if there was a way to the parking lot from here. He pointed to the doors back to the pool. I had my crying toddler in my arms while my husband had his hands full with our belongings. The lifeguard wasn’t even 5ft in front of us and he didn’t even open the door for us as we followed him back to the pool to leave. He opened it for himself and closed it behind him on us. This was the icing on the cake. There were several opportunities for the staff to warn us that the showers were outside and there was no warm water. We had a small child with us and this felt very personal. From what I observed, many staff were very young, had poor attitudes and absolutely need schooling on professionalism and empathy. They need to be held accountable. I understand nobody is entitled to special treatment but damn…common decency goes a long way. We won’t be back to this facility.

The front desk lady was horrible and was extremely rude not paying attention to us and on her phone. She told us to leave when there was a "max capacity" when there was no one in the pool. The lifeguards were also bad mostly the one named Jake. The front desk person blamed the fullness on the jake guy idk if that was true or not.

Swimming room was nice and the front desk lady was super nice but, those locker rooms made me want to cringe. Very unsanitary, damaged shower walls, hair everywhere, and garbage as well. They need to hiring cleaners for the gym to be cleaned through out the day or close down those locker rooms because the open damage walls looks like some mold is growing in there. Looking at previous reviews, it looks like these walls have been like this for some time now. That’s crazy how they think that’s OK. I Gave them two stars because the pool was really nice and the front desk lady was amazing but took three stars away due to unsanitary locker rooms conditions. I really never seen anything like that before, it made me want to get in my car not even rinse off. I did let the front desk lady know, but she says they get clean once a night by the look of that bathroom they should be cleaned throughout the day. They should have a fund set aside to handle those locker rooms. It’s really should be shut down.

Went on a Thursday morning to swim laps and loved it! Such a kind and friendly environment, and a beautiful facility. I feel lucky we have this here in Federal Way!

Extremely rude front desk workers. When I paid to swim the lady acted like I was inconveniencing her to do her job! Guess she needed to get back to the movie she was watching on her phone. Also, the man was very rude too. Was playing a game on his phone as well. I don’t even care if you’re on your phone at work but don’t be rude when you have to do your job that you’re being paid for. Also needed to be buzzed in the gate entrance to use the bathroom. Also a HUGE inconvenience to her! Sorry, I spoiled your day by paying to swim and needing to be buzzed in the gate! Hopefully the next time we swim it will be different staff!

Hi guys. I have been to a few PF and you guys are the best one. Thank you. Love how clean you keep your equipments and the spaces between them 👍👍. Really enjoyed my workout. I will definitely be using this location a lot. 👍👍💪💪💙

I've been to this Planet Fitness several times and the staff are kind and maintain the facility pretty well, the black card member area is spacious and sanitized with a nice lounge area.

This location has very nice staff, but plenty of issues have prompted this review. They got new treadmills, stairs steppers, bikes and elliptical 2 months ago, that are great. Problem is the treadmills reboot several days a week. The machine stops mid workout and it's difficult to start them up. The staff is aware of the problem and are trying to fix it, but it's been 2 months now. They took all the toilet seat covers out and when I asked about it, I was told it was a corperate decision to save money. When machines break, it takes weeks, if not months to repair them. If you are looking for a gym where they put profits before customers, this is your gym.

It’s a great gym not to crowed people and staff are nice I get lots of compliments from people there… equipment is managed very well and is wiped down. Perfect gym to go to highly worth your money.

The vibe at this gym is amazing. Not only are the owners and employees here fantastic the clients that come in are amazing as well. The workouts at HOTWORX are challenging but also fun and encourage you to do your best. This is no failure if you’re in there giving it your best. Coming from someone that has a bit of social anxiety this gym makes me feel welcome and ready for my next workout. I love the options that are available so that you can get your best workout in every time you step in the door. I highly recommend HOTWORX if you’re looking for a positive environment and great workouts to go along with.

I visited for the first time yesterday and I definitely stayed longer than the first free workout I came for. Experience was welcoming and exciting. The Freedom to sweat in private is wonderful😅. Seems like your able to schedule time slots from 15mins to 45mins depending on workout. And the FX room is openly available. I'm coming back today!

Hot worxs is amazing! I've started my journey here. It's been amazing. The staff here is incredible and very kind..The positive energy and vibes ihere is the best part of coming. 😊

Super disappointed. I signed up under a family account and was told by the owner, Michele, who signed me up, that I could cancel at any time since I would just have to remove my name. Just called today and was told that it NOT true- I have to give 2 months notice and come in to sign paperwork. While the workouts felt good, I wasn't losing any weight (I am now with Intermittent Fasting) and we just bought a house, so disappointed I have to carry this bill for another two months. So much for the family atmosphere :(

I’ve been going to HotWorx for a couple weeks now. Michelle is amazing and always there to greet you with a smile, her team is fantastic too! It is a very welcoming place to be. It’s all maintained and cleaned well. It’s not uncommon to see them running around wiping things down and picking up. The sauna workouts feel amazing! I wasn’t sure I would enjoy working out in the heat as I am not one to enjoy hot weather… but it’s a game changer. The dry heat of the saunas isn’t bad at all and I feel so good afterwards! I love the variety of classes and the ability to use the open gym space for some weight training and even battle ropes! Price point in my opinion is fantastic! If you haven’t tried this place out yet, I highly recommend you do!! You won’t regret it!

One of the bigger Anytime fitness I’ve been. Equipment are old, but they have more machines than most of the anytime fitness i’ve been, as they’re the machines I need for my push, pull, & leg workouts. And although they’re old, they still do the job, just like the ones LA Fitness, those are old as well. Also their bathrooms a far better too, i’ve been to renton anytime fitness and the Renton one is nasty compared to this one.

Unusual fee charged on my account and the person that runs the gym couldn’t care less. Totally dismissive on the phone. With no resolution offered, I just cancelled account.

A literal Karen runs this place. Only thing it has going for it are the hours. If you’re serious about a gym invest your time elsewhere! Limited equipment and cramped space, and ONE dirty gross shower.

They don't list their rates unless you give them all your information first. That way they can constantly bombard you with emails and phone calls as well as sell your information. I hate it when they don't list their rates, means they are hiding something.

Clean, well equipped, and well taken care of. There are no big crowds to fight, so working out is a breeze.
