Literally one of the dirtiest gyms I’ve been to. There is mold in the men’s shower room…. Constantly! The steam room never works properly and also always has mold in it. The restrooms never have any ventilation so the whole thing always reeks. The most annoying part is seeing that I’m not the only one leaving a review like this, and on every negative review the company just has a set “auto response” that just mentions how they will address it and strive to fix it. However I’ve been coming here for months and nothing ever changes long term. You might get lucky and see it all clean once every month or two, but reliable it’s always filthy. The sad part is, it’s not the chains fault, it’s just whoever manages this gym, their other locations don’t seem to have this issue. So if they could please address these issues and actively and consistently fix these problems and keep them from reoccurring, it would be appreciated. At this rate, there’s not really a reason to stick with this gym, for the price, there are other gyms with similar if not the same amenities

Pros:-lots of equiptment-24 hours-in n out in walking distanceCons:-very dirty, locker rooms smell, floor looks like theyve never been cleaned, trash bins always full-bad/no AC. Youre going to get sweaty working out so a gym needs to be ventilated/cool. If the weather is warm it will feel even warmer in this gym. The air doesnt move so everyone sweats and stinks.-staff does nothing. They seem like nice people, but besides occasionally refilling the cleaner fluid, they just camp out at the front desk and look up from half the time. No enforcement of rules, (locker room filming, shirtlessness, couples making out/obnoxious behavior.)-bad musicEvery problem with this place could/should be addressed by management. Most reviews here have replies but nothing changes. The fact is most people who go here, like myself, have no choice. Any other gym is either too far away or not open 24 hours. I suspect profits are either good enough that theres no real reason to improve these things or that the investment to do so is not worthwhile. I'll probably get a reply to this review from the gym with a link to write this all somewhere else. Corpospeak for f-off.Theres just no pride in this place. Why bother cleaning the cracks in the floors, around the base of machines? Why bother making the air comfortable or the music better?Saddest part is there really isnt a better option. So I guess i'll just keep breathing the sweaty air and ignoring the skin flakes.

It's a decent gym that's actually open 24 hours. 6 squat racks which is nice but some of them are facing each other so not that desirable.Late night 9pm+ hours seem to be really chill. There's always that group of guys that huddle around filled with testosterone so it can get a bit awkward when they start going shirtless lol....I actually don't know how busy this gym gets during the day but these late night hours seem to be really nice and empty most of the time.

On November 19, 2023 between the hours 0900 and 0930, I utilized my gym membership that I just recently signed up for in the 2nd week of November. From the get-go of becoming a new member, the bathroom quality has been very poor. When trying to utilize the gym stall toilets, there is always human feces on the floor or a huge trail of ants coming out of the walls. When I attempt to use the gym bathroom sinks, most either don't work or are filled with human hair/pubic hair. When using the air dryers, there is human pubic hair on the walls so you cannot even dry your hands or get pubic hair blown onto you. When attempting to walk to the showers, you have to avoid constant mildew on the floors. When utilizing the showers, there is a high distinct smell of mildew combined with human urine and human feces.I tried to give the benefit of the doubt, hoping the quality of cleanliness would become better as the week went on, but it just seemed to get worse.These photos were taken on 11/19/23 in the morning between 0900-0930 hours as I attempted to take a shower. This is an extreme health hazard and a complete lack of hospitality for gym members.With the such high volume of traffic entering the gym at this Oceanside location, I don't see why not a cleaning crew should be handling these matters on a daily basis.

I really enjoy this gym. It's clean, staff and *most* members are kind, and there's enough equipment to diversify or supplement your workout.Unfortunately, this morning I was made to feel soooo uncomfortable.I was wrapped in a towel in the woman's locker room getting ready for work, after my workout and shower. I saw another woman taking photos (in the locker room), I asked her to stop because she was making me uncomfortable. She refused.I went to the front desk staff to ask how they enforce the rule of no photography in the locker rooms... here's where my concern is. The front desk staff said that, "it's a grey area... they have no way to enforce this rule... I need to do my best conflict resolution when I see this woman."I'm FLOORED!!! How does a corporation not have a protocol in place for this type of invasive and inappropriate behavior? I'm so grossed out by the lack of an appropriate response.I will be reaching out to management, during business hours... but for now, I'm leaving a review. I will update when I receive a response.

This is the dirtiest gym that I've ever been to. The locker room showers are disgusting, people leave wet clothes on the ground, the Steam Room is broken half of the time, the Sauna is absolutely squalid, it's way overcrowded, and the staff in the front basically plays with their mobile device instead of solving the filth problems. Nobody enforces the shoes policy for the Steam Room and Sauna, thus contributing to said filth. Wear flip flops people!

I have belonged to 24 hr fitness since the 90s. I quit during Covid and came back to the Oceanside club without doing a walkthrough. It is disgusting! I mean forget Covid, I’m afraid of picking up Anthrax from this place! There is literally mold and dirt everywhere! See pictures.

I've tried giving this place chance after chance and the staff just doesn't seem to care. Pretty significant main gripes that I hope corporate pays some attention to:- HVAC is a joke. Almost every day this gym is approaching 85 degrees, which isn't safe. The HVAC is clearly clogged and yet no one does anything- Lockerrooms are disgusting. Not remotely clean- Staff is much more focused on their phones than doing the simple things like replacing paper towels and cleaning solution. Not great when you're trying to keep a gym remotely clean- Half the cardio equipment doesn't work correctly, again because the staff can't be bothered to schedule simple maintenanceI'll update this post every couple of weeks until corporate gives this the attention it warrants

It's small. Locker rooms really need a renovation. If you live in the area the atmosphere is friendly but busy. If you're a traveler looking for a quick workout this location is not for you.

Staff was great!!! I am on vacation and called in to ask about a week pass. The person on the phone told me yes. I get there and find out that no, they don’t offer week long passes. BUT they let me know I can just do month to month. They were friendly at the front and got me setup quickly. Gym was clean, wasn’t too crowded, and there were plenty of weights and cardio machines to use. Music over the speakers was a bit loud, but I had my own headphones and music. If I’m ever back in town I will come back! Thank you Mikayla and team (I probably butchered that)!

Good:The gym has a wide variety of equipment, including cardio machines, weight machines, and free weights.There is a cycling room and a large mirrored room for group classes.The gym is open 24 hours.Bad:The locker room, showers, and restrooms are filthy.There is trash on the floor, overflowing trash receptacles, and clogged urinals and toilets.The shower tiles and curtains are covered in mildew.The air vents are clogged.There is even fecal matter on the shower room floor.The sauna, steam room, and jacuzzi are often inoperable and closed off to members.The pool is not maintained and is occasionally closed because of chemical imbalances or some mechanical malfunction.Overall:The gym has a lot of potential, but the cleanliness of the locker room and other facilities is a major issue. Management needs to take steps to clean up the facility and make it a more pleasant place for members to use.Here are some specific suggestions for management:Do your job.Post signs in the locker room and other facilities reminding members to keep the area clean.Hire more staff to clean the facilities more frequently.Repair or replace any equipment that is not working properly.Conduct regular inspections of the facilities to ensure that they are clean and well-maintained.I hope that management takes these suggestions seriously and takes steps to improve the cleanliness of the gym. With a little effort, it could be a great place to work out.

Love this gym it’s just too busy unless you go at 4 in the morning or in the middle of the night. Other than that they have everything you would ever need. I wish they would open another location close by

Stay away from this place. Not many of their other locations are much better but this one off Frazee is an absolute nightmare. The girls at front desk are cold and the place is filthy. The women members have bullied me and the people are so counterintuitive that it's unsafe. Just a warning. I ended my membership. I could say a lot of other things in regards to this warning but will refrain. Use your imagination. Worst case scenario.

I want to stay polite.Unless you're personally going to test the water yourself because the teenagers at the front desk don't keep the pool up to code. This gym is an accident or illness waiting to happen.Filthy locker room, as u walk to pool through locker room hall there is old smelly standing sewer water from the showers running towards pool as we walk right in it to get to aqua stuff. The staphylococcus infested showers, pool, jacuzzi and sauna... This is a fact not an opinion and trust me when I tell you I can back it up. I emailed, spoke to workers, desk attendees, trainers, 1 very nice/ the only housekeeping staff woman whom can barely move or ambulate w/o a walker that they expect to clean That entire huge gym with the heavy equipment all by herself. Shame on them. Then I just see the young ones standing around holding up a wall or their phone. Worst services/ false advertising of classes not offered ...

This gym is horrible every time I went something was out of service that I was trying to use and it was not to clean so I stopped attending after the fifth time of the first month I signed up .and the staff is also very unprofessional and rude, signed up for month-to-month, and they have continued to charge me for the past six months saying you have to call to cancel but initially when I signed up, they said that it would only be a one time charge and I can decide if I wanted to continue every month from there on out the manager Jessie said after I signed up and after taking my money that the month-to-month is a contract. He kept talking over me and repeatedly said I’m not refunding you. I’m not refunding you sorry we can’t help you. I don’t know what type of manager tells their customer they’re not helping them and talks over them. I only attended this gym five times and was charged over $200.
