LA Fitness

I go to this gym solely because they have a child care while I work out and for the fitness classes.
Do yourself a favor and avoid the ‘free’ personal training session. I did mine with Tony and I think that he managed to insult me about 10 times over the course of the work out. I don’t think he realized he did it because he is completely self absorbed! According to Tony, everyone that joins the Navy is soft (I am a 12+ year Navy Veteran), nurses are at least 50 pounds overweight (after telling him I just started a nurse practitioner program) and he completely disregarded my goals (I joined to take group classes for stress relief and he kept coming back to getting down to 18% body fat, which, by the way, any reputable healthcare practitioner will tell you is borderline too low for a woman). The session ran over by at least 30 minutes, and he was completely oblivious that he was wasting my time.

This place is a total joke. A health club should be about fitness and a good community to make it feel like a home away from home. This is not the case in any way. It’s full of jerky meatheads and women who think they are the hottest things around. Ive been lifting all my life. I’m by no means an intimidated or sensitive person. I have all the confidence in the world but the the jerkiness of this club is high from the hard sale staff to the clowns that are members. I was doing snatches in my own area when a couple almost walked into me mid snatch because they were too busy looking at themselves in the mirror or looking to see who was looking. And they looked at me without an apology as if I was invading their space. That pretty much sums up the members that are part of this club. A friend of mine tried personal training here and was turned off by the trainers because they were constantly hitting on her even thou she’s married. I went to Columbia athletic club after this guest pass was over and can say that it’s night and day! A real friendly place that makes you feel good all the time. Do yourself a favor and don’t waste your time or money here!!!

Personal Training selling tactics misrepresent their services in order to close sales on customers. Fail to privy me on start up fee and never mentioned that you have 3 days for buyers remorse.
You just made a detractor out of me. Congrats!

We joined today after receiving a delightful tour of the facility by Marianne. Nick Russell, Assistant General Manager, was very friendly and professional, as well. They gave us a lot of attention and thoroughly answered our questions. We found the facility well equipped and very well maintained. We are looking forward to utilizing the equipment and the pool.

At Mill Creek LA Fitness, you get lots of bang for the buck. It is a large, clean, well equipped health club with a great ambiance to include a nice pool and sauna. The locker room is clean. The facility and equipment generally is well maintained and is home to a friendly staff. The only but to all these pluses is the awful, non-​stop, overly loud music. Over and over you hear the same songs and lousy LA Fitness ads and at high infidelity. I have and other members formally complain but to no avail. If you can stand the music or wear headphones, this is a quality place to work-​out. If not, go some other place.

This is a great gym. Zimel and Nick signed me up, great guys, fun to talk to, relatable, etc. After signing up (and getting my family memberships too) they introduced me to Tony the training director, and I truly don’t understand all the bad reviews, I told him I didn’t want training because I’ve been lifting for a while, but he took me through a great upper body workout and full conditioning which I needed, and he didn’t even show me the prices. Great guy.
I would recommend LA Fitness to anyone interested in joining a gym. The other clubs are low energy, dirty, and too expensive. It is conveniently located in Mill Creek Town Center and has great classes, hot tub, pool, cardio, and tons of good weight equipment, how could you expect more? Oh and kids club available but I don’t have a kid.

Ok so I just want to start out by saying that I’m new to the gym and don’t have much experience with the ways of fitness… But I have a friend with a membership that allows him to bring in friends, and while I was there for leas than five minutes I had to go back to the front desk and they asked me to resign in because my friends membership only allows him to bring up to two people and there was three of us who were new and I get that, so I got a online free two day guest pass, but No that wouldn’t work because I had already entered the gym (5 MINUTES AGO!!!) and after listening too the sale reps long, long and lengthy sales pitch just because I couldn’t use a guest pass and then for me to use the gym I had to get a gym membership and with up from costs it was almost $ 300. Instead of honoring the two day guest pass, I walked out and just have to say LA fitness you have lost my business!
So in my opinion any person who’s even thinking about joining LA fitness (mill creek) just know in my experience that their customer service is not satisfactory

I joined this gym last summer when I was pumped up to get in shape. I remember my first meeting with Tony who was very nice and helpful. He convinced me to sign up for personal training and I am very glad I did. I’ve had the opportunity to work with different trainers (due to changes in my schedule) and they have all been awesome: Luke, Ksenia and Misgna. I most highly recommend this gym for how great the equipment and facilities are and most importantly for how nice, professional and hardworking the staff are.

Total rip off and total liars
This place is as any other regular gym and it okay if you do monthly DON’T EVER EVER TAKE Personal Training sessions Contract your are in DEEP SHIT JUST DON’T DO IT if at all pay monthly and don’t believe a word form the people no matter how bad /​good shape you are in STAY AWAY
Free assessment from PT Manager/​Customer TONY once you take it he makes you feel miserable with the free session and PUSH you to SIGN UP anyway possible and fall you prey into signing up for PT Sessions with excellent sales pitch and BUNCH of lies stating you can cancel anytime 15 year manager he can do anything by waiving off the joining FEE, LIES LIES LIES and when you actually want to cancel they PT Training staff or the GYM manager DON’T CARE and give you TOTAL BS and pinning it on you stating you signed the contract with your conscience and everyone in the GYM management Doesn’t give a SHIT about it you’re just FD
You HAVE TO pay not matter what you can’t even STOP/​HOLD the payments if you sign up for PT Contract
You miss a session for whatever reason you just donated $ 50 bucks to LA Fitness means you should have a emergency planned before 24 HOURS so you can re-​schedule/​cancel the PT Session Totally Absurd right suck it up coz you got yourself into a CONTRACT
PT — Totally overrated and not worth the money Take group sessions instead totally worth it
Facilities — Okay good but not great
Equipment — Good Equipment but NO Kettle bells
Its your lucky day if you find parking in peak hours and over crowded in peak hour people wait in lines for elliptical and treadmill
Hope this helps to get what you want by joining the GYM Just be careful and don’t do the mistake I DID and let people know what is happening out there I would never recommend this place to anyone

I’ve been to a couple of LA Fitness locations. This one was way more expensive than the location in Vegas I was a member of.
The location is shiny and new. The equipment is all in great shape. However it is a gym for pretty people. I’m not the smallest guy and it always felt awkward being there. Add in that cardio machines fill up fast in the evenings is why I left.
I will say there kids club was a nice feature. It made it a lot easier to drop the kids off and work out.
Expect a normal gym experience from here with a slightly more expensive gym price.

First thing when my mom and I signed up they pushed us to get a free training class. We didn’t care much for it but after getting calls after calls we decided just to do it so they can stop bothering us.
TONY!!! TONY!!! TONY!!! He is the rudest person I’ve ever met! He makes you feel like crap! Literally, he pushed us to sign up for a personal trainer saying that if later on we don’t like it, we can always cancel!!! Biggest LIE! He’s a lier!!! He tells you one thing and later on changes is! He needs to get fired! So many people complained about him and moved on to a different gym! That’s why I don’t go there, he’s horrible!

The gym is close and I love the instructors. BUT:
The management can’t get it right consistently.
They shampooed the carpeting in the locker room but it was so wet everything that touched it got wet: clean feet, socks, towels. Now look at the towel after it sat on the wet carpet. Gross!
Not a professional job, me thinks…

No air and always crowded during prime times, much more than other gyms around. Floor equipment broken for weeks sometimes months. The water pressure sucks in the showers, that is if you can get in without being grossed out due to the large clumps of hair all over. The locker room has carpet which stinks. The sauna is always dirty. And to top it off, seems not a sole who works there cares. I wish there was another gym closer to my home to transfer to.

I love this place! Great service. Friendly people. Not much else to add but Unilocal is apparently making me write more so I can actually post it. It’s weird that Unilocal makes you do that. You almost feel the need to vent even though you really have nothing to say but this is kind of fun so I guess I’ll keep writing.
Saw a bird today. Nothing spectacular about the bird, I just saw one and I wondered, «Do birds Unilocal or chirp?» What is the difference? Guess we’ll never know.
Now, Unilocal is saying, «your review is at average length (which is what your ex said about you). But why settle for average? Write on!» So I guess I’ll keep writing nothing that applies to this place.
Seriously, they do have great equipment. My parents enjoy the swimming pool. I like going to the… Ok, good. Unilocal finally told me that I can stop. Now my fingers are bloody. Good lord, how do people write reviews???

Open space, crowded, dirty and bad customer service that focuses on hard sale. So that sums it up!

The gym its self is not bad. I have only been a member 1 day and interacted with 2 people there. 1 was Zimel, the person who signed me up and the other was Tony, their personal training coordinator. This review is not on the facilities but the staff.
First I wanna say Tony is a ridiculous, disrespectful, pushy person. I had an initial new member session I was signed up for the day after I joined at 630pm. I called around 11 to tell them I could not make it because of work. At 530 i get a call from tony to confirm my appointment. I told him I called to cancel earlier. When I tell him I do not want to reschedule and don’t need personal training he goes off.
I told him I have been lifting for 15 years and know what I’m doing. He then says «oh so you’re a professional then?» and tells me he’s been lifting for 20 years. Basically everything I say he one ups me and tries to tell me if I train with him I can somehow accomplish my goals in half the time. This goes on for 8 minutes before he gives up.
I was about to just cancel my membership since they give you 7 days trial after joining. I’m still a member at 24 hour fitness. Luckily (for them) zimel called me and said he heard how tony was talking to me and appologized. That is a stand up thing to do, because now I will give it a try.
I suggest you scroll down a ways and read reviews on tony before you sign anything with him.
Facility 4 stars, staff 2 stars

Pros: Close to home and juice bar is pretty friendly. They have 1 female trainer who’s actually pretty good and personable.
Cons: My gf and I were working out one day and the manager came over, pulled me aside and said I wasn’t allowed to «train her» or «spot her». I would need to buy personal training for that. we felt severely discriminated against. The GM hasn’t responded with our numerous complaints over several months. Most of the trainers are not trained properly or certified, unless you count being trained by the car salesman, Toni. But it is pretty entertaining and comical to watch though.
Front desk is hilarious! Even thought they stand at the front desk, they place the scanner on the desk and have you scan yourself in. I’ve been using my gf’s card for weeks and even though a picture of her pops up on the screen they can’t seem to look away from their phones for 2 seconds to notice.

I made the switch from 24 Hr in Everett and really happy that I did. One, the monthly rate is cheaper (albeit, there’s no towel service – but no big deal). I was originally going to do a three day guest trial though I was pretty set on leaving 24 already, and was offered a substantial summer discount special so I signed up. I did not feel pressured and have never encountered any pushy sales from the staff.
I really like the equipment selection, and despite the occasional meat head with biceps bigger than my head, I’ve found the clientele to be respectful and decent. Majority of people here are actually here to work out, and majority are pretty fit which I find motivating.
My only complaints are the lack of ventilation in the cardio area, and the carpeting which I feel is a breeding ground for germs what with people dripping sweat everywhere. I don’t know if I’m the only one, but I also suspect that carpeting is what makes the women’s locker room smell like feet all the time…

This is a much better location than the one in Everett. The equipment is good, gym is clean and staff is friendly. It’s a little more crowded than usual with the New Year resolution folks but, still relatively empty during off hours. I especially enjoy the location near restaraunts, grocery stores etc.

As with all gyms I’ve been to, there are sweaty meatheads checking themselves in the mirrors. And ladies, if you come in with full makeup and flirt, said guys may hit on you… don’t pretend like you don’t like it. However, there are also plenty of folks just trying to burn off those extra calories and stay healthy.
Also, the bottom line is sales, they want to sell you. Up front I told them not to call me or try to sell me any training packages. LA has obliged my request. My advice is if you don’t want to be sold, walk in knowing what you want and be stern from the get go.
Pros: Up to date equipment. Clean workout area. Good location. Inexpensive.
Cons: Horrible ventilation. Short weekend hours. Questionable sales staff.
With that, if you work our like me: earphones in, mind my own business, sweat and get out, LA is definitely sufficient.
