Planet Fitness

All the staff has been so sweet, friendly and welcoming. They’re always helpful if ever I’ve needed anything. The gym and shower room are always well maintained and clean. Two thumbs up for Gainesville planet fitness

So, yes small gym experience. If you are one of those people who need the world in. A gym than I suggest going down Newberry road where you will get extra amenities but you will spend your whole paycheck. One has to really question what the need and want. I love PF because I don’t want bells and whistles. I want a clean, quiet atmosphere to do my workouts and be affordable. The staff have always been amazing. They are busy too these days so be patient if you need their help with a machine. I always see multiple walking around cleaning machines. For machines, I would love to see a rower or a ski krieg machine but ok if not. I had tried cross fit and those machines were amazing.

1st time visiting and was surprised/disappointed in the facility and accommodations.

One would think a college town would have a larger space, more machines, and more up-to-date equipment. Smallest PF facility I’ve ever visited, which means less machines but one would think they’d make up for size with up-to-date equipment.

My local PF in a town 1/3 this size has all of the above and more than this one has to offer.

Even the Seminoles have a better PF than what the Gators have to offer and that’s just sad.

I’ll save my workouts for local and Tallahassee PF’s moving forward.

First off, I believe Planet Fitness is the best gym around for bang for the buck. And I’ve been to many and always been very satisfied. I like this gym for the proximity to my house. However, this one is solid but very unflattering. The gym is smaller than normal and much busier than normal (probably because of the lack of nearby PFs). I generally feel that I am working on top of others. I didn’t understand the bad feedback on the staff. They always seemed friendly and courteous. But the tightness and crowdedness of the facility earned my rating. I would say that it would be nice to have given it a 3.5. Not a 4 but better than a 3.

I liked the facility but the customer service has not been good. I have routinely had trouble finding an employee to help me. And then they make cancellation extremely difficult. You can’t do it over the phone – in person only. You have to time it exactly right – not too early or too late, and if you are even a couple of days late, they won’t work with you at all on a refund. It’s very easy to be late because their annual fee date and your normal monthly billing date are not the same.
