Planet Fitness – Mesa

The gym is always clean and quiet. I a able to think and sort out my life as I work out my body.

Planet Fitness is amazing! Not only are the memberships only $ 20 a month but all the equipment is so easy to use. Not to mention they also have tanning beds. I just recently started going and I love it already :)

This location has its pros and cons. Very nice staff. Very willing to help. I have two concerns… The smell and the air conditioning. No gym smells like roses but lately the smell has been so bad it actually makes me ill. I think if they did deeper cleaning and turn the air conditioning up higher they might not have such a bad issue with the smell. I work out at other Planet Fitness locations around the valley and this one by far smells the worst. I hope that corporate will pay attention and see what they can do to fix this issue because the staff is so nice and the location is good. Another suggestion would to be to actually enforce the rules in the 30-​minute express training area as I find it really hard to do the work out there when people are just sitting on the machines and being on their phones. But please keep it up Planet Fitness you have a great concept going just refine the slight issues!

Planet Fitness is a solid gym. I had/​have a few issues and suggestions that I wish were better but overall this place is pretty sweet.
1) When I first signed on I asked the employee if he personally worked out here and if he recommended it. He flat out told me, he works out at Lifetime Fitness and has only used the PF facility a few times. Um, okay.
2) It’s $ 10/​month to join but they did try to charge me $ 20 for a 1 day pass to try it out. (Because that makes sense)
3) The men’s restroom/​locker room only has 2 stalls. For a good sized gym, you have to wait to use the restroom if the gym is busy? It’s a major design flaw.
4) I wish there were 3 – 5 additional adjustable benches near the dumbbell area.
5) During busy hours, the gym smells like feet. Reminds me of my high school locker room.
Now on to the positives:
This gym is super clean! I can’t speak for during the day, but at night the cleaning crew is working hard and the place is spotless. However, the men’s restroom floor is never swept.
Planet Fitness really does everything right. Their «no intimidation» motto turns off the meatheads and grunters. There’s none of that here which I love! The employees are nice and not pushy. Without the black card membership, the $ 10/​month is amazing! If you go 3 – 4 times a week, you are paying less than a dollar per visit. Can’t beat that. They also have a good selection of equipment and a ton of cardio machines.
There are no hidden fees or troubles with billing that I’ve run into. They are up front about what to expect. $ 10/​month, no commitment. $ 20/​month (black card) with a 1 year commitment. Black card includes perks such as tanning, massage beds, you can use any PF location in the United States and you can bring 1 guest with you each time you go for free. That’s an amazing deal. I personally have the $ 10/​month. The gym is also open ²⁴⁄₇ which took the cake over the LA Fitness near my house that closes in the evening. I can go after work late at night and the place is dead! Perfect!
I love Planet Fitness thus far and I would recommend this gym to anyone looking for a nice, clean, stress free place to work out.

Great ownership, reasonable prices and friendly staff. This is a perfect place to better you. I don’t need fancy gyms that have classes. I just need a gym with equipment and I’m ready to go! Since I’m a black card member, the tanning booths, the angel toning booths and massage chairs are a bonus. The major plus is I can go anywhere in the U.S. and use any of the Planet Fitness facilities.

Colette i believe her name was by far one of the rudest people i have ever come across working in a costumer service industry. terrible choice in staffing. who wants to join a establishment with rude employees

BEWARE… they suck you in by telling you their monthly fee is $ 10.00 with no commitment, and then they push the advantage of converting to a Black Card membership which is
$ 20.00 a month, never bothering to mention that there is a commitment, 12 months as a
matter of fact. The worse part about it is the explanation when I needed to cancel
«thats the way it is». 1 Star for their customer service. IF YOU ARE LOOKING FOR A GYM
WITHOUT A COMMITMENT, THIS IS NOT ONE OF THEM, EVEN THOUGH THEY SAY IT IS.

I price checked all the gyms in east Mesa. This one is awesome. Everyone comes here from really fit people to really old. No one judges and it feels extremely comfortable.
I couldn’t have picked a better gym to start getting fit in. The Unilocal reviews really sold it for me. I am so glad I found this one. I have even referred 5 people!

Great open gym with plenty of cardio machines. There could be a few more weight lifting machines especially bench presses. During peak hours it is hard to find one that is available and it quickly becomes a game of waiting for the next person to leave.
Some people are inconsiderate to those that are waiting and will «save» their machine by using t-​shirts or water bottles while doing circuits on other machines. It can get very aggravating when you are waiting for that one specific machine and two of the people «using» the machine are off doing something else.
The staff usually will address the situation if you report it, but it happens almost daily.
The locker rooms are always clean and the staff is always friendly. For people that are looking into jumping headfirst into a workout routine, this is a great place to start. There are some unique characters that go to this location though.
This Planet Fitness location loses a star for their inconsiderate members and the lack of a watchful eye from the employees.

Planet Fitness here in Mesa is AMAZING! I’ve transfered from the Casa Grande location and I have to say it’s a lot better.
If your looking for friendly staff members, a great Fitness center with affordable prices, exceptional workout equipment then Planet Fitness is for you.
I have absolutely nothing bad to say about Planet Fitness.

Clean friendly gym. I’ve heard horror stories about Planet Fitness but for the price decided to give it shot. Never once have I experienced the talked about horrid events. It’s very calm, everyone minds thier business and I get my work out on. Thier tanning beds are high grade and awesome!

I go to the Broadway and Lindsay location every other day and the staff is very friendly the place is super clean with plenty of equipment and the price is right. Now here is my complaint, as you walk in the door there is a list of the rules of the gym, one rule being that only baseball caps are allowed as head wear. Last night Dec. 11 there were two people in there with hats which did not conform with the rules but no one said anything to them. One person had a hoodie on and the other one had a wool cap with a gang logo on it, if this is a sign of things to come I will have to rethink my membership at PF. This not being the fault of upper management I still give it a five star rating.

Joined about a month ago. Great deal if you do the black card membership. Being able to bring a friend is awesome. Rarely busy. Customer service is ok. Tanning beds are horrible. Max 9 min. I’ve tanned prob 3x’s/week and haven’t even noticed a change in skin tone. Not really fond of cleaning machines with the papertowels and spray bottles that they use. Lots of cardio machines. Love the purple tootsie rolls!

I love this gym because it’s very low key. Nothing too exciting going on, and it’s rarely packed with people. The staff is always nice, and everything is very clean.
Also, someone posted that a visitors pass doesn’t cost $ 20…it absolutely does. I know because I paid it. If a GUEST comes with someone with a black card membership then it’s free. If someone comes by themselves it’s $ 20, but you can apply that towards your membership if you bring your receipt in when you sign up.

This gym will suit the needs of 80% of the people. Lots of cardio equipment. Limited weight lifting machines. Serious body builders will be dissatisfied. Planet fitness strives to maintain a judgement free gym. You shouldn’t feel intimidated going here.

I’m a 57 year old woman that has wanted to join a gym for quite sometime now but was afraid of the atmosphere of most gyms. This place is PERFECT! My husband and I have been going now for a month and we both have lost 10 lbs, toned up and feel great. I have felt comfortable there since the day I walked in. I hear the price is very good for a gym, but honestly, I would pay much more just to be able to walk in and not feel uncomfortable. I did get the cheaper membership as I was skepticle, but I will be up-​grading. We love it, love it, love it, and thank you Planet Fitness for saving our lives or at least adding a few more years to them.
As for the review that states «The whole „non-​judgement zone“ is kind of dumb considering its a gym and we all judge»… No we don’t all judge. That’s not why we go to the this gym, so thanks you for makeing a place for people like us.

Day 2 of my membership and I’m loving it! Clean facilities, great customer service, spacious workout area, hydro massage beds, massage chairs and tanning for $ 20/​mo! Thank you PF! :)

I have never belonged to a gym (or really ever been in one unless you count the YMCA when I was 16) so I came with a friend to check it out. We came on a Saturday morning and it was pretty empty. There were four staff members behind the counter which seemed a little excessive but they were friendly and seemed to recognize my friend.
The facility is super clean and there are tons of machines. For never being in a gym I was immediately put at ease and felt comfortable. It was nice to have a friend show me around and was patient so I could read the instructions on all of the machines before I used them. I didn’t see any staff walking around of talking to the patrons but I believe you can ask if you need assistance.
I have been thinking of going to the gym EVERYDAY since I have been and am going back to sign up in the next couple of days. I can see myself becoming addicted to going here so watch out current Duke or Duchess… I’m coming for that top spot.

Lunk free environment, I enjoy. I love the concept, clean, open and packed with equipment, I dig. My only complaint is that I’ve experienced a lull in availability of staff if your interested in speciality services like tanning or massage beds. Not that I mind working out more but dang, this girl be pasty without a good base color going into summer. ;)
