TLDR - Join if you only want cardio, avoid if you're looking for using weight equipment/machines.

Do not join if you're looking to use weight equipment vs. cardio machines. I signed up and ended up canceling after one week because every time I went (no matter time), most of the weight equipment was being used - and in many cases being hogged. This happened for so long half the time, that I actually ended up leaving in the middle of a workout because I was waiting upwards of 10-15 mins for some machines.

There are no regular squat racks or bench press stations, only 4 Smith machines which were in use every time I was there. Many of the people using them would hog them by doing their whole workout at the machine and hoarding other weight equipment there.

This leads to the moveable weight equipment issue (ez bars, Dumbells, etc.)...these are never re-racked and most of the time being hogged.

As far as fellow gym goers here, they also made me want to quit this place. Lots of rude people who hold/hand off machines to their friends (even when seeing/knowing you've been waiting), hogging equipment/machines, not wiping down after using stuff, taking videos/photos throughout the gym, and the gem of a lady who was trying to "beat her [some other gym goer] a**" when I was trying to cancel because the other lady moved something of hers.

Last complaint is that this place always felt and smelled sweaty/too humid. I get it, it's a gym, but they should check/improve their A/C and ventilation systems because other gyms I've been to didn't have this issue.

To be fair, there are some good things here. The staff were friendly, helpful, and always had at least one person cleaning whenever I was there. If you're looking for cardio, there is plenty! Plus, this is a good gym for someone who may be intimidated by starting out, as this gym tries to be a judgment free zone and has lots of motivational...

I am writing to share my experience at the Natomas, CA location, which ultimately led me to cancel my membership on the spot today, September 1,2025. In July, my annual fee of $49 could not be collected because the account on file did not have enough funds. That account is not my main account, and I simply forgot to transfer the money. Meanwhile, Planet Fitness successfully withdrew my monthly fees for July and August, so I believed everything was current. When I went in this morning to pay the $49 fee, I asked if the $15 late fee could be waived. Despite my long history as a paying member, the manager immediately refused, showing zero willingness to consider my payment history or loyalty. That lack of basic customer care was enough for me to cancel my membership immediately. On top of that, the Natomas location has consistently lagged behind other Planet Fitness gyms:

-The stair masters and cardio equipment are often broken or barely functional. -The water was recently out, and members received no compensation or even acknowledgment for the inconvenience. -Unlike other Planet Fitness gyms that have been upgraded, this location feels neglected and poorly maintained.

Between the refusal to waive a small fee, the disregard for long-time members, and the lack of care in maintaining the facilities, it’s clear that member satisfaction is not a priority at this club. Planet Fitness not only lost my $49 fee but also my membership over $15. I will be sharing this experience across my social media platforms so others can see how this location and your brand treats...
