It ish a contradiction of sensibility for the place to be named a 24 hour, when there ish a Closing time and and Opening time. Which makes it impossible to access, if your use of the facilities ish in the morning before 7am. Which leaves you limited choice alternatives. Other than the inconsistency of the contradiction in brand and actual hours it ish open. This 24hr facility is a clean nice operation.
How ever the competency of the staff ish still open for debates - as on my last few visits, the few actual staffers present were lost in their personal frames of mind. Which ish understandable, because they are often put in situations where there are intrusive and unpleasantness from members that are homeless and the random non members who are homeless. Because the remaining "crazies" who live on the streets of San Francisco gravitate to the financial district. Where the pickings for aggressive street begging ish good, and there are ample resources of waste cardboard to sleep on, with plentiful nooks to sleep in - that ish until building security or the police show up.
Regarding the locker room area, the facilities are also modest. There ish a main locker room on the second floor adjacent to the "personal training" area and a secondary restroom on the third floor where the main workout area equipment ish located. Both (mens) have only one working toilet for the conveinience of members, with two urinals in the main locker room, and a single urinal on the second floor restroom. The showers are few, but in good working order. The colours are pleasing. The lockers themselves are the newer larger ones identical to the ones in the Market Street (Castro) and Van Ness Ave 24 hr fitness facilities . But again due to space limitations there are not a lot of lockers. There ish one redeeming perk, while the hand "warm air" dryers are noticeably weak and barely warm. There are two additional dryers located on the wall for the drying of heads that have wet hair. These two dryers are noticeably stronger. But are easily overlooked by those whom are height challenged. Because the on switch ish out of reach for them. A simple additional switching relay would remedy this little inconvenience and avoid potential litigation by our demunitive peers, the ones who still have hair on their heads.
It ish a fine facility for that quick workout, when it ishn't crowded. As there ish just enough equipment to fill almost every last centimeter of viable working space. So it ish likely, that during "normal" day time hours one must modify their intended regime to accommodate the crowding of others who want to share the equipment.
Good luck folks.
It ish highly unlikely that a remodel will be coming in its future, as the layout of the structural engineering of the building would be excessively prohibitive and expensive. Had there been hindsight foretelling the passing of nongender specific toilets, it would of been exceedingly more efficient to design in a central "non-gender toilet area to accommodate more toilets to poop in. With the locker and shower facilities branching off seperately. But then depending on the trust worthiness of social mores of some members, this may not be viable in this day. As a security presence would be needed to deter violators of...
Read moreI’ve been a member of 24 hour and Fitness since 1992. My how times have changed ! there was a Gender dysphoric gentleman covertly filming me nude while I was taking a shower in the gentleman‘s room. There’s no shower curtains, and the bathrooms are full of fungus not to mention the silt on the black mats. What’s worst part the attendant Zoey who is the most terrible attendant I’ve ever met when I told her to close off the bathrooms, because there was a man that was filming other people in the bathroom showers, and that I needed a manager and some police help. She stood there by chatting with a girl about a parking space and then I got corrected for speaking out too loud while I was trying to parlay the emergency information so that she could get some security. Well, Zoey did an excellent job at not providing security whatsoever. Not even a manager to call me. And this is no different than the incident that happened in Texas to that woman who has been filmed by another perp at another 24 hour fitness. Finally, the police showed after several police calls, and they arrested the perpetrator posing as a woman in the men’s room for several warrants that he had another state! San Francisco is a liberal sanctuary city so many freaks come here, straight, outta jail, but that doesn’t surprise me what’s the real suprise is the lack of security in the lack of attentiveness that Zoey showed, i I did mention to her that she should close off the bathrooms immediately, and I personally had to warn people coming into the bathrooms, not to go in there, and to be careful while Zoey pretending to wait for the manager that never showed up or never called me at all. I do have a police report record for the perpetrator. I hope they kick him out and I hope they re-educate Zoe and other employees to have better security program protocols I tried to tell her, but I guess this generation doesn’t listen. She was too concerned about the pronouns she was using to address the perpetrator. It’s a sad day in America where not even the employees or the fitness gym that I go to has adequate security. I am so happy that this happened to me and not to a lady in the woman’s room! I could not imagine that happening to my wife or my daughter or my granddaughter. It turns out that this Renee manager, is the same manager that is running and closed down to 24 hour Fitness On California Street! it doesn’t surprise me I give this gym one star for overall sad employee treatment and care of it. Zero points for security of its Clients ! the gym in itself. Equipment wise is OK but very bad security...
Read moreI'm one of the members that had to migrate to this gym after the one on 303 2nd street plaza closed down and let me say this one is a let down.
It's not only that the gym is small but if you add the fact that it's located in the financial district the place gets ridiculously packed on peek hours. The equipment is in good condition although badly distributed: There is a sea of elliptical machines that get no use on weekends while there's only ONE squat rack (yes, ONE) and two or three people waiting to use it, there' two abductor machines and NONE decline bench press, etc. Never had any issues with any members, all are friendly and just keep to their own (never seen any judging in this or the previous location as portrayed in the planet fitness commercials). My only complaint is the occasional homeless people that somehow make their way to the showers and do their laundry there. And speaking of, showers are limited but clean as is the general men's locker room area. Staff are nice people trying to do their best considering the amount of traffic this location brings in. I miss the 303 Second street plaza location so much, it was better equipped and...
