I usually like this gym, but I fell off the treadmill and got pretty seriously hurt. I limped over to the front desk and asked for help and they didn’t even bother to come out from behind the desk. They just handed me a bandaid. I felt they could have been more attentive. What if I had a fracture? I had a deep road rash cut from the treadmill and grit like I sprained my ankle. I laid on the floor for awhile before I could even get up. It

Okay so I have been coming to this location for years! And it just keep getting worse, I find it very annoying to pay Monthly for things too keep getting worse 😱 love doing yoga look at the state of the ONLY YOGA MAT available. 😠 it’s so sad and miserable. A gym should be something inspiring

i had never been in an LA Fitness before. I was surprised at how spacious it was, how clean it seemed, and seemed to have everything I could hope to need in a workout location. I secured a day pass online and after visiting this location, have decided to join this gym instead. It appears there are more LA fitness locations close to my children's activities so i can use my wait time to squeeze in some workout time in the meantime. Have gym back, will travel! receptionist could have been a little friendlier but the gentleman to whom she referred me was much friendlier and informative.

I’ve been attending this gym since 2019. This gym was brand spanking new and marvelous back then. This gym was so nice that I would drive the extra 20 minutes just to go to the Gessner location when I moved away in 2020. We moved back into the neighborhood in 2024 and this is my local gym again. Over the past 2 years this location has gotten OVERPACKED. It’s packed in the morning, evening, even on Saturdays. I started driving 25 minutes to a different LA fitness to avoid the crowds.

The Gessner location needs to take pointers from the Barker Cypress location. Barker Cypress location has a smoothie bar and med spa. They also transformed the basketball courts with fully decked out equipment. From several hip thrust machines, squat racks with bumper plates, smith machines, and other leg equipment. It’s a dream!!

The Gessner location has the space. They shut down the daycare in 2020 due to COVID and never brought it back. That space has been empty for years and not put to use. Literally it’s just locked up. There’s also a random room by the bathrooms that I’ve never figured out what it’s used for. I think if Gessner location expanded into the old day care and furnished it with upgraded equipment, it’d help the over crowding issue and improve member’s experience. It’s 2025, we need hip trust machines people!!!!

I came to this gym after my location closed on Eldridge and have tried to be patient about the equipment not working or dumbbells never in the racks. Why does this gym not reset weights back in thier racks every night before closing? The other LA fitness locations do it every night but the workers at this gym spend all their time talking. A lot of the Treadmills are either broken or TV functions are not working. As more gyms open up with better working equipment and more convenient hours I’ll be making a change soon. I don’t need. Reply from the gym I just need them to do better. #DOBETTER

Each time I attempt to reach out to her, I find myself cut off as she hangs up the phone in a rather frustrating manner.

Edit: Facility is nice, machines are good (matrix and hoist) and it gets the job done, for the most part. Only problem I struggle with is the lack of lighter dumbbells from 5-25lbs.I’ve tried times between 9-11am, 1-2, and 4-5. It doesn’t seem to matter what time I show up. You have to run around the gym and hope you find the dumbbell weight, or something close enough to accommodate your lift. I’ve attached several pictures from different times of the day to show the lack of dumbbells.

Great gym..I've been working out here for over a year, almost daily. A lot of friendly regulars attend this gym. Very little staff turnover as well. the facilities are clean, bright, and do not smell. equipment is new and well maintained. They have all common amenities needed for weight lifting or cardio work. they go a good job catering to elderly and lower mobility people with classes in their fitness room and swimming pool. Basketball court is a nice bonus feature and is popular as well

The gym is not being managed well. The equipment is old, and the plastic on the seats is damaged. I have told management about these problems many times. Despite these ongoing issues, charges for machine upgrades are still being made, and it is unclear where the money goes. If there is an upgrade fee for memberships, there should be clear evidence of upgrades. However, no upgrades have happened, and there seems to be little maintenance, let alone any real improvements.

Last year, I canceled my LA Fitness membership in October. However, I am still being charged. When I went back to check, I found out that my membership was not actually canceled, and that it can only be canceled by speaking with a manager. The manager is available only from Monday to Friday, 9 AM to 6 PM. I don’t understand this because people who work during those hours can’t come in, and it would be more convenient to handle it on weekends. It doesn’t make sense that I can register online but must meet a manager to cancel. I am very upset with LA Fitness for this unreasonable policy.

Do not go to this gym. My lock was cut and money stolen from my gym locker 1 month ago. Today I had nothing in view inside my car, and yet a thief smashed my window and rummaged through my car stealing whatever they could. Both events occurred at 5:30pm in the daytime.

Management gave me a generic reply, and corporate could care less. They take your money and leave you with no assistance.

I loved this gym until they took advantage of me and still continue to do so.
Im handicapped, I’m missing my left leg.
I went into LaFitness to find a trainer that had experience working with amputees. It was a blessing when Brian signed me up with Jermaine.
I stared working with Jermaine in January and he is the best! Results have been amazing until Jermaine & Brian both left, in the beginning of April.
Since then la fitness has dragged me along saying they will look into finding another trainer for me. I have called corporate, I have spoke to the manager, Oscar, at the Gessner location. I begged them to let me out of this agreement since Jermaine certification expired and stood me up all of April.

No one will let me out of the agreement or provide a trainer that has experience with amputees.

I feel taken advantage of and it’s gross.
I had a goal to train and be ready to try a running blade in August.
La fitness continues to take $720 out of my account every month but not provide me with a personal trainer.

I was interested in this gym because it is really close to the area I live and it was convenient to go here. When I walked in and asked how to become a member they were very good at taking care of that fairly quickly and then asked if I wanted a one on one personal trainer the "free" one you get when you sign up. I said sure let me try it and see if I like it and it wasnt bad specially since I dont have much experience working out certain parts that i wanted to target. So the session was over and then i was asked if i wanted to sign up for a MONTHLY fee and that i could cancel at any time. Well I ended up having to leave for work for a few months and i called to see if they could just pause the personal training and the membership well they paused the membership but not the personal trainer. they gave me some number to call because they could not do it there and i called and now they are telling me that i have to pay 50% of the feee because i have it till october of 2025. The issue here is that they LIED!!!! about how the personal trainer membership works and not cover that it is a contract that will get you to stay for months! it is sad that you all rely on laying to people or not be HONEST!!! So if i could give them Zero stars i will. I didnt have a problem till i found out about this situation! DO NOT DO ANY CONTRACTS!! with this place they are not truthful! or up front about their memberships!

Besides the Generic Gym Equipment that people's "money for deposit pay for" they're lack of actual machines, on top of average trainers doesn't do this place any favors.

1st- Front desk is often left alone during peak hours, then when they decide to help, it's one of the GM or Managers with a smirk on their face
2nd-20$ daily pass is far too much, 10$ is more reasonable, it's not like they have groundbreaking machines anyways.
3rd- Weights read KG, and trust me when I tell you I should not be able to pick up 75 "KG" dumbells, so use of rubber fake weights again do nobody any favors. Besides the front desk and cleaning people (who, let's be honest, make that place run), that's pretty much all the fun there.
4th- They (LA fitness is still to this day over charging for Deposits, running credit for it, then asking additional money if credit is bad or average), it's the scam like behaviors which is why the LA fitness closed off of beltway 8 and West Rd location. That place was twice as big and therefore fell off far before this location will.
5th - they have about 1/3rd of the entire gym dedicated to treadmills, who on earth needs that many treadmills. Minimal stair climber, rowing machines (for people who actually want versatility in the cardio options), this place isn't for you.
6th - to many of the people starting to work out for the year (and Highschoolers) you are better off driving to an actual old school gym.
7th- and Final, not worth the price, and definitely not worth the daily price, the feature of the pool is abysmal, use of hot tub not needed, and to top it off steam room and changing areas are of basic boring value.

Conclusion: There are better bangs for your buck. Please drive elsewhere. LA fitness is a thing of the past. Never was relevant.

-Update 2 (February 2025) Went on a Sunday and no paper towels anywhere again...
-Update (Sept 2024) Ghetto! NO PAPER TOWELS AT ALL what a surprise. ANYWHERE, NOT NEXT TO MIRRORS, NOT NEXT TO TOILETS, NADA, ZERO. Spent 2 1/2 hours there and went back to restroom and nothing. See photos
I pay 2 memberships here for years and there's no soap for days, the paper towel dispensers are horrible, either you have to fight it to give you the paper or there's no paper. The water fountain tastes bad and water comes out warm. If you have so many people going why not improve and invest on the customers that are making you rich???

Do not trust these people. I signed a six-month personal training contract and despite telling their personal training manager at the end of December that I was not going to renew, they charged my credit card for both January and February. So far, they’ve charged $720 and I’ve used 0 personal training sessions. What a great deal. The fine print of the contract says that the contract will auto renew. I’ve initiated 2 disputes with my credit card company - one for January and one for February. Do not sign a personal training contract! These people will tell you they’ve cancelled your contract and then lo and behold, your account is charged. Buyer beware!

3 things to consider: you'll eventually get ringworm from the equipment that is rarely sanitized, your car will eventually be broken into (and the gym and HPD will do nothing about it), you won't be able to complete your routine during peak hours (plenty of PF-level members who use the machines as a chair to scroll through their phones for 10 minutes+ at a time while the gym is packed). Run.

My vehicle was broken into in their parking lot at 10am on the second day of my membership. Conveniently for the gym, the parking spot I was parked, on the corner of the gym underneath the security camera, is the one blind spot in the gym’s security camera system. What a coincidence. I’m sure no one at the gym was aware of that and had nothing to do with this.

0/10 would not recommend.

Honestly I enjoyed going to this location. But my car and another car got their passenger side window smashed and rummaged through. At 5pm.
The other car had the security cameras blocked by other vehicles. That I get. But my car had the person and the vehicle they got out of in view. But the security cameras are so dated that they couldn’t make out anything, not even a license plate number. Honestly don’t really feel safe going to this location anymore if their cameras can’t catch anything anyway.
Workers are nice. But just sad that their “security” doesn’t mean anything.

If I could give this place less than 1 star I would. I started training and with my first trainer was told that because I wasn’t paying for more than one day a week that I wasn’t his priority. He then proceeded to cancel on me for three weeks straight until I was charged again and many sessions behind. I requested a new trainer and was placed with their newest hire. She was good but the sessions were all of a sudden cut in half? Still unsure about that one but anyway, on my third week with her I was told I was being moved to another trainer because she was no longer available. I then asked to freeze my membership. I am a single mom with two kids and two jobs and didn’t have time to make up the missed sessions and getting charged was getting expensive with nothing to show for it. They said that they would freeze it. They didn’t. And I was told that I could just let it go. And it wouldn’t hit my credit if I just changed bank accounts. No refund on services not rendered. This is the worst experience I have ever had with a company. Now I’m several sessions behind making payments when I don’t even have a trainer assigned to me. They just steal your money and they are mismanaged by someone named John who is the regional manager. You will never see his face but his lack of doing his job was the reason I was still charged after freezing. I was planning on finishing my contract but after his lack of interaction. I will not be giving anymore money to a company that operates this way.

So they play Fox News in the locker rooms and the last thing anyone wants to hear about, in a gun, is POLITICS. Trump this and Trump that.
I will be canceling my membership due to this.

The drains in the pool area are clogged, particularly the drain in the shower that is located next to the pool. The floor is disgustingly dirty in the pool area. It is obvious that it hasn’t been cleaned in days.
Either no one is cleaning or they are so incompetent that it looks like no one is cleaning.
However, I have watched them clean the windows at the club entrance for over 30 minutes. Perhaps instead of cleaning windows that no one cares about clean the floor in the pool area. MOP. That is what you ask for when you go to Home Depot.
A 15 year old can mop, why can’t this club?
The common area water fountain does NOT have cold water, ever. Imagine you are exercising and working up a sweat and you just want to drink some cold water so you go to the water fountain (that should have cold water) and discover that the water is room temperature. It has been like this for 3 months! Perhaps longer. There are no excuses for this. I think they actually want it to be at room temperature so that customers will buy the refrigerated bottled water from the vending machine that is adjacent to the water fountain. Customers pay dues, therefore the water fountain should work flawlessly. It is disgusting that LA Fitness does not want to offer any cold water to their members. It is offensive. A wrongful death lawsuit is a likely result from not fixing and not maintaining a cold water fountain. Imagine someone having a heart attack due to overheating. I will never recommend LA Fitness to a friend or coworker. People deserve better. If something is broken you call someone to fix it, you don’t ignore the problem. But LA Fitness thinks that it is perfectly fine to ignore the problem. I guess they covet the
income from the vending machine more than they care about their members’ health. They should remove the word “Fitness” from their signs because there is nothing fit about being subjected to hot water during an intense workout.
Perhaps the health department will have an opinion on this.
Beware that they prevent any members from entering the club in the last hour. So if they close at 8 you better get there before 7. So even though you are paying dues and you have an expectation that you can use the club all hours that they are open, you will grossly disappointed if you show up at 7:10 if they are closing that day at 8. In essence you are paying for hours that you do not have access to. Seems like a rip off.
Thank goodness that LA Fitness has competition, it is time to find a better gym,
and from what I’ve experienced, all the other gyms will treat their members better.

The elliptical machines are all rusted, and there are never any sanitation wipes available, so you’ll need to bring your own. Additionally, I noticed a homeless person entering the bathroom. There is homeless encampment nearby.

This place went from dirty to disgusting. The locker rooms are never clean, they run out of wipes for the equipment all the time, and I’ve never seen the showers cleaned. At the LA Fitness on Yale I see people cleaning all the time. I’ll change this review when they start cleaning and making sure they have enough wipes. Another LA Fitness shut down and many of their members come here now, so increase the orders of supplies and start cleaning more frequently

My husband and I have been doing group training sessions with Jermaine B., and it’s been an incredible experience! Jermaine is a master trainer who truly understands how to tailor workouts to our goals and fitness levels. His expertise, motivation, and genuine care make every session both challenging and enjoyable. We’ve seen amazing results thanks to Jermaine’s guidance and dedication. Thank you, Coach!

This LA Fitness facility itself is great—clean, well-equipped, and a great environment to work out in. Everyone that works there is very friendly and welcoming!

I paid a month in advance here. But I guess they don't look at like that. I haven't paid in 2weeks cause of the back to back hurricanes n disasters . No lights for 8days. But they treat me like I'm behind my 2months that I paid for. n embrace me infront of everyone. I been coming here for 7months n I'm over it. Then wanna pull me to the side like I owe them money . I'm yellow not red. I always pay my membership before the 7th. . But I'm very uncomfortable here. I'll be going to a new gym . They give me a hard time for no reason.

I worked with Brian the personal training director. I had a great experience. Brian listened to all of my concerns and then explained in detail where my weight and body were at and needed to go to be a lot healthier and fit. Two goals were discussed- a doable one and an ultimate one. Brian showed and demonstrated several pieces of equipment and exercises and had me do them. I now have a realistic idea of what I need to do and how to do it. I would recommend Brian to anyone wanting a personal trainer. It was a great experience. .

I was reluctant to hire a personal trainer due to bad experiences in the past. Such as trainer showing little to no motivation and assigning mundane workouts while they ride the clock, and just not paying attention because they are to busy conversing or texting for long moments at a time, all the while being too ignorant to properly explain the benefits of their routines. However, I am pleased to say Brian Sadebeigi breaks that mold. Immediately, he broke down the nutrition and biochemistry involved when creating a plan to perfectly meet my fitness goals. If I had a question or reservation he provided a detailed answer. He immediately gave me a meal plan and routine that would be tailored for my fitness goal. During our workouts, he provided prime motivation all the while being aware of my limits. Basically, he will push you but is educated enough to know how not to hurt you. He explained to benefits and purpose of each exercise and respectfully addressed areas that I needed to work on. I signed up because of his expertise, but his motivation alone is a selling point. Even on days when he is not assigned to train me, he will still actively seek me out to check my progress and offer advise to better reach my goal. My experience made me believe that personal trainers are the modern day snake oil salesmen. Thanks to Brian, I'm happy to say that is not the case.

As for the gym. Very clean, equipment is relatively new. The ration of machines/weights to visitors is balanced, so not a lot of waiting for other to finish. People greet you with a smile so great atmosphere. Highly recommend this spot.

He's 10/10.⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I am training with Leo Torres. I highly recommend Leo. He is knowledgeable about the body, the muscle groups, and what exercises to do to help me achieve my goal. Leo gives close attention to my form and which muscle group I am using. I have a very specific goal of being able to start my gas-powered leaf blower. I was helping a friend recently move boxes. She commented on how strong I am now compared to last year. I attribute that to Leo.
Leo is knowledgeable about how nutrition and sufficient water and quality sleep play into my success. I am 70 years old and determined to start that leaf blower on my own.
Leo educates me and fine tunes my movements to accomplish this desired goal. I will have Leo test my success and help me actually start that machine.
Kudos to LA Fitness for having a quality trainer. I have had trainers at a variety of clubs over the years. Leo is the best yet.

Been coming here for a while. The facility is always hot if it's not the winter. It's like the owner doesn't wanna spend money on turning on the ac. "The weather's always changing, so we never know what to set it to." Well you have a phone, right? It tells you the weather right? Make an educated guess on what to turn the ac to.

As a member for only 3 months, I found my lock removed from my locker when I went to grab my things at the end of a work out and my wallet had been searched through. I don't feel that my valuables are safe at this gym and will be cancelling my membership. The gym is also overcrowded and doesn't have enough free weight equipment.

This gym has new equipment and is overall very clean. It doesn’t have a ton of equipment but not a huge problem because I haven’t seen it too busy.

My issue with this location is that they’ve just gone rogue and made up all sorts of their own rules. There are homemade signs EVERYWHERE saying “don’t do this” and it’s really weird. They also won’t allow entry within an hour of closing? Really weird and I’ve never seen this at any other LA.

Update: I wrote this review the day after my backpack was stolen out of my truck. I didn’t want to jump to conclusions but I later get a call from another member saying he has my backpack. He found it in his car which was broken into. For some reason they picked my lock, stole my backpack, then shattered the other person’s window, probably took some things and placed my backpack in his car. Idk what’s going on at this location but until they ramp up security and start caring about their member’s valuables, I’d steer clear.

————————

Protect your valuables. Someone or multiple people are targeting this place. Been going to LA fitness for over 5 years, to multiple locations. This is the only location I’ve had something stolen. If it happens to you, don’t expect much help from the staff either. The impression I got, is it’s not their fault. But I secured my valuables with a locker and lock, they have security cameras outside and inside, and it apparently happened to another member a few weeks before me.

I filed a police report and was told they would review the security cameras. Haven’t heard anything back. The regional manager is the only person able to review the footage apparently, and he was there the day that it happened. He didn’t come to the front desk to speak with me or the cop so I guess he decided it wasn’t worth his time. It should be worth his time because he either has a member stealing other members’ valuables or non-members are getting in somehow.

They also don’t allow members in an hour before closing which is dumb. A member pays for access to the gym during business hours.

This location used to be my second favorite LA in Houston. The front desk is nicer than usual, but the handling of my theft was just awful. I probably won’t go back at this point.

Gym is clean and well organized with generally friendly staff. Downside is equipment repair. I’d estimate that of the twenty or so treadmills, at least half of them has a broken TV, or some other missing or malfunctioning device. When other devices need repair, it seems to drag out for weeks or months.

I want to give it more start, but there are things that I can't overlook.
1. The room where the classes re held, is not blurred out or the view is not obstructed. Exercising is already a self conscious activity and having everyone that walls by see you is very disturbing.
2. The cleanliness around the equipment is below what expectations of a gym should be. They have made an effort in the past month or two to clean, but noone is really getting into the immediate area around the equipment, and it gets full of dust, dirt, grime, etc.
3. Their sani-wipes are located in areas that are inconvenient for quickly grabbing one to wipe off your equipment, which is why many people don't wipe down after use. Maybe placing one at the entrance point of the cardio machines, like the treadmills, would be very helpful. They should be placed throughout the equipment, not just next to the walls.
4. The stretching mats are always filthy! Again, something that can be remedied by placing wipes right next to them, not on the far off wall.

Positives
5. Morning front desk is nice and receptive.
6. Locker area always clean
7. Plenty of class options
8. Plenty of parking
Temperature is usually fine, unless they turn on those dang fans that freeze you out and blow your hair into your face

Like the gym, nice space, equipment works most of the time.

Low rating because they recently started closing the front door and not letting people in an hour before closing. Found this out the hard way when I tried to come get a 45 minute workout in today. They should change their hours or make a public notice. Big bummer finding out after I get there hyped for a workout.

I like a late night workout and can usually get a quick session done in 30-45 mins. I am sure a lot of other people are the same way.

Definitely not the gym I will be making business with, I signed up for a complimentary 3 day pass to try out the equipment and see the environment before actually signing up with a contract with them and the guy taking care of me just wanted a sale off of me, he began to show me plans they had and the credit he would get for me signing up without ever even considering that I actually wanted to try the 3 day pass before making any decision. I’m very dissatisfied with the false advertisement that they are giving and wasting my time driving up there. Smh, to top it off no signal there at all! Sucks

The appeal of LA fitness is it serves as a mid level gym for both fitness enthusiasts and newcomers.

This location had the standard LA fitness equipment types and then some; free weights (dumbbells up to 100lbs, lots of incline, decline and flat benches), squat racks, a variety of strength training and cardio machines including a self propelled treadmill which isn’t typical for most locations, and a turf area to do some sled push/pulls.

Pros of this location: lots of equipment, generally clean and no gym bros grunting and slamming weights (I went early on Sunday morning).

Cons of this location: stretch area is limited.

It’s one level, but everything is neat, orderly and clean! If I lived closer, I’d frequent this club often.

They have a cycle studio, basketball court, kids klub, pool, aerobics room, a large free weight area and then the cardio and machine area.

Writing this at 5:07PM on a Thursday. When I
arrived at 4PM it was empty and now it has quite a few people here, but getting in my exercises wasn’t a problem.

As a first time gym member at 60 years old, I had some reservations about joining. Until, I went into the gym today and was helped by Fitness Director, Rory Yearwood! Not only was he a total professional who knows what he's doing, he is also very compassionate and put me at ease about coming to the gym and learning what all I should do there. I feel comfortable now and I'm looking forward to using the gym.

I have to say this is one of the better gyms and might be best LA fitness in Houston area. Makes sense since this location had way better reviews. I have been to good ones and not so good ones, but this one is great. Staff is friendly, helpful too. All equipment worked well. Loved the hot tub, and pool. Pool area was a little dirty but it was a weekend and busy. Sauna smelled bad but still worked well. Very hot. Showers were spot on. A good location to go too.
