LA Fitness

This is below average management ran type of gym. Disorganized, weights all over the place, dirty shower, dirty restrooms, no paper towels and even missing toilet paper in some stalls. Didnt have any broken equipment from what I've seen and have a lot of newer equipment. Im never in this area, but it must be a nice choise for those who live close by this area, far from everything else in Houston.

Don't waste your money here. Update: They took out a lot of machines and put in a turf area that hardly anyone uses. They should have added more machines instead. This gym is now more crowded than ever. Because they took the extra machines out more people are having to use dumbbells which means they are laying around all over the place and never available. I honestly really hate going to this place. OH AND NONE OF THE SOAP DISPENSERS HAVE SOAP AND THE PAPER TOWEL DISPENSER DOESN'T HAVE PAPER TOWELS. HOW DO YOU GUYS NOT HAVE DUMBBELLS AND PAPER TOWELS AND SOAP?? The district manager for this store doesn't care that the equipment needs replacing or that some of it stays broken for months or the fact that there are zero single pulley handles for ANY of the adjustable pulley weights. There's no angle bar for the seated back row machine either. THEY TOOK THE SEATED BACK ROW MACHINE OUT AND ADDED FAKE GRASS. WHY!? It's been TERRIBLE for a while. You would do better to go to a gym where management cares that you have equipment you are able to use like Planet Fitness or Fitness Connection. This review is staying 1 star until the district manager cares enough to make it better.

Been a member for a long time. I originally signed up at LA Fitness due to close to work and fairly clean showers. There has always been a very slow response to repairing equipment. Last year without notice the gym closed for over a week to renovate. The renovation basically was new equipment and a revamp of the trainer area. Since the new equipment was installed the new cardio equipment has been an issue. Most of the foot straps broke within a few weeks and have never been replaced. Why?? Also the elevator has been broken for months, I have no need for the elevator but shows the lack of care by management. I will be looking for a new gym as I am retired and can go a bit further to get to a better maintained gym.

Update 7.15.24 Poor management and rude fitness instructors. Too many people hogging machines and even after management was made aware they failed to manage the situations continously allowing members to be on their phones for 5-10+ minutes without using the equipment they are on. (More than 1 person and more than 1 equipment). Makes the gym pretty hard to even use. Lap pool is constantly being used for things other than lap swimming such as swim lessons or water aerobics. I belibe out of curiosity to swimmers, there should at least be 1 lane open for lap swimming. Update 6.15.24 Gym was redone however they took out a lot of the machines, didn't replace them and instead left empty space. This gym has poor management. Equipment is outdated, many needs repairs, maintenance or replacement. Regardless of how busy it is it never seems clean.

I am convinced LA Fitness is the best all-around commercial gym. However, please please keep the place open longer over the weekends, Saturday and Sunday past 7pm is when people want to come to the gym and you guys close at 8pm. People who are gym people do this for fun, it's a fun activity that people look forward to doing over the weekend after spending time with their family during the day. If you update the hours to be open 7days a week till 11pm I'd be willing to pay double my membership for that.
