Planet Fitness — Attraction in Las Vegas

Broken equipment. Disturbing staff issues.

Take note, ladies: the "maintenance man" (an elderly Hispanic gentleman) seems to have issues with his eyes! He stared at my wife in a bizarre, "far too long" manner. Repeatedly. It made her feel so uncomfortable, that she wound up leaving the gym. In tears!! I can't tell you how angry that made me!! And it took her most of the day to get herself back together. Horrible experience!!

And sorry to have to say this, but the elderly brunette white woman who works the morning shift (the one who wears a lot of makeup, with 80's hair) emits an odor that cannot be ignored. She may simply have a foul odor due to a urogenital tract infection; unsure. Regardless, she needs a medical examination. Perhaps a physician can determine why her body consistently emits a foul odor like...blech, rotting fish. It's extremely repulsive. I would have said something the first time, but I didn't want to be rude. After a certain point though, you just cannot ignore it, and have to walk away. That's what we did.

The equipment: it is often missing straps, several of the smaller free weights are missing, and for as much as I've watched the "maintenance man" I mentioned above clean the gym, he doesn't actually clean the equipment. He wipes off the front desk a lot. He also wipes down the Black Card Spa area (and goes in there whenever an attractive female is there...to "clean" I suppose). But he never seems to want to wipe down equipment. Apparently "cleaning" is only his priority when he sees an attractive woman that he wants to have an excuse to be around. Otherwise, his "cleaning" doesn't happen.

Honestly, it's all quite disturbing. This location is one of many we have gone to as a couple, and it is now by far the most disturbing and disruptive club we have ever been to. The previous staff on duty when it first opened were younger, more upbeat, and happy. The elderly AM people seem to have issues that elderly people often have (inability to take care of themselves, inappropriate behaviour, severe boundary issues).

Unsure what happened to this location, but this is now by far the worst PF location we have ever attended.

Truly is the absolute worst. Do...

🌟 A 5-Star Sanctuary of Sweat & Positivity: My Planet Fitness Experience 🌟

Let me start by saying—this isn’t just a gym. It’s a well-oiled temple of transformation, and walking through those doors is like stepping into a parallel universe where cleanliness, kindness, and consistency reign supreme.

From the moment you enter, it’s clear: this Planet Fitness location sets the gold standard. The floors are immaculate, machines gleaming, and every corner—from the locker rooms to the stretching area—is meticulously maintained. You can tell they don’t just “clean”—they care.

But what truly elevates this gym is the staff, who aren’t just employees—they’re the heartbeat of the place. • Cheryl greets you like you’re family. Her warmth is magnetic, and she somehow manages to brighten your mood before your pre-workout kicks in. She’s the definition of approachable professionalism. • Chase is your go-to guy for anything machine-related. Whether you’re a seasoned lifter or a first-timer who just accidentally turned the leg press into a medieval torture device, Chase will help you with zero judgment and 100% genuine care. • Kay has this effortless calm about her that makes the gym feel less intimidating. Her presence brings balance to the sometimes-chaotic energy of a busy gym, and her attention to detail when walking the floor never goes unnoticed.

And then there’s Taj. The manager. The maestro. The MVP.

Taj doesn’t just manage—he leads with intention. His ability to run a tight ship while making every member feel seen and valued is nothing short of extraordinary. He’s approachable, proactive, and has cultivated a culture of positivity and pride that permeates every inch of this facility. You can feel his influence in everything—from the morale of the team to the pristine condition of the equipment.

💜 And let’s not forget—this is Planet Fitness, the Judgement Free Zone®. But this location goes above and beyond that slogan. It’s not just free of judgment—it’s full of encouragement.

In short: If you’re looking for a gym that’s spotless, safe, and staffed by humans who actually give a damn—this is the one. I’d give it six stars if I could....

I started coming back again after a couple years going elsewhere. The parking lot is cramped with limited access points, so coming here in the afternoon is no-go for me (especially because this lot has a problem with loitering squatters), though during quieter mornings it's not a problem.

This gets quite a good weekday crowd for a PF (typically PFs are much less trafficked in the early AM than other gyms). You usually should be able to use the equipment you need, but there's quite a few people here. I remember afternoon crowds being awfully crowded and I imagine today that's no exception. I just won't bother after work and will just go elsewhere.

Aside from that, the equipment is up to date and pretty much all in good working order. It's rare for me to see something broken and totally out of order here.

That said, there are a couple legit issues here.

A lot of the connecting lanyards are missing from the cable decks, meaning that if you can't grab a lanyard from an open adjacent machine then those decks are completely useless because you can't attach handles without a lanyard. The lanyards have been missing for weeks (and the staff should be well aware by now), so either management's not willing to order replacements, or the gym has some thieves who keep stealing them (which doesn't bode well for your valuables if you bring any in).

They're also missing several of the smaller dumbbells from the free weight section. These are probably harder to replace so them being gone is more understandable, but they're still missing several little dumbbells.

For a PF of its size there is not a lot of floor space for mat use. There's a smallish open space near the stretch rack, but otherwise you have to try and fit in between the somewhat crammed in 360 rack and the walls. That whole area is rather cramped for a PF 360 area in general, so good luck. And forget about laying a mat anywhere else in the gym without...
