I have been consistently going to mystic fitness over the past year, most of 2024. Mainly weekends…read moremixed in with super early weekday mornings, so you can imagine it has been relatively quiet and easy to navigate new workouts and all machinery. I find this to be the most convenient local gym of its kind. With an app based keyless entry and great customer service you really can't top the 24-7 gym experience local to mystic ct. However I would have liked to see more ownership/staffing presence for cleansing and maintenance purposes. A proper changing area would be an awesome addition as well. Some of the machines could use an overhaul or just straight up replacement. As a result I have not renewed this 2025 membership and in the process of remodeling my basement to workout from home. Lastly I wound have liked to see a month to month option included in 2025 memberships. I know I would have more than likely joined for the rest of the winter until my home set up is complete. I would recommend this gym for those of you looking for a very specific work out routine. Mainly the place to yourself before the birds come out! Happy workouts! Cheers to a happy healthy 2025

There's nothing better than going to a state of the art gym where the trainers are supportive of…read moreyour fitness goals, positive and upbeat, and are more than willing to provide alternative exercises if you have an injury. It's so nice to have the option to workout whenever you want day or night or to go to guided classes. Having a supportive gym community and having someone guide the workout are what motivates me to consistently go to the gym. You basically show up and the workout is already coordinated. You'll receive feedback on form correctness throughout the workout to ensure you're doing the exercises safely and most effectively. It's a really great gym - you should definitely check it out if you haven't already! If you need guided workout classes like me, I highly recommend checking out Zoe's or Eric's spin classes and Xan's full body circuit classes.

We have been members since Planet Fitness opened in Groton next to Big Y - many years! For the past…read moremonth or so, the number of machines out of service is 2-4 times as many as in past years. And the same machines visit after visit, indicating a lack of attention by management. I am wondering if the recent $2 million fine for the owner of this PF and 139 others for fraudulently obtaining payroll relief during the pandemic is causing the owner to shortchange basic maintenance. The timing of this neglect is bad as there is a normal spike in membership and usage after the holidays at the same time there are fewer machines available. I've read the response on Google from the owner and note that I have spoken to staff multiple times, not manager as she seems to be avoiding the facility the past couple of months, in contrast with the past when she was there almost every visit. Staff told me that equipment under warranty and waiting for manufacturer to come and fix. CAN'T BE TRUE: In the past an employee of the chain was there regularly fixing equipment, but haven't seen him in a long, long time. Re Warranty - NOT CREDIBLE - equipment has been there for several years, well beyond any likely warranty. None of this, the owner's answer, staff responses, absence of manager gives me any hope that things will get fixed!

Out of the four that I go to, the Groton Planet fitness is my favorite. It's the cleanest and the staff are very professional. I go there all different hours because my work is inconsistent so I try to get gym time in when I can. I've seen the supervisor inspecting equipments, staff actually giving tours of the facilities (when I asked another Planet Fitness location for a tour, he stood in one spot half heartedly telling where things are), staff at Groton clean often, the ladies bathroom is clean, staff giving customers information, and they greet you. Other gyms, not going to say which one, the counter hasn't been cleaned in the ladies room and I see hair particles everywhere, the counter looked greasy, no clue why it's greasy, could be hair products or lotion, the bathroom doesn't have toilet paper, soap runs out. You don't see those issues at the Groton planet fitness. I feel comfortable putting my things on the counter as I get ready to work out. One time the paper towel dispenser was slow coming out, the next time I went there, it was replaced or they fixed it. (Attentive to maintenance) I still go to other locations because the equipments are different and I like change oddly enough but overall- hands down to the Groton Planet Fitness team for taking such good care of this location. I appreciate the cleanliness, professionalism, and that you guys create a welcoming environment for members. Thank you Groton team.

Parking is available in the surrounding lots as long as the stall is unmarked. Parking during noon is a bit difficult but after 3pm parking is open. This gym offers an assortment of machines (smith machine, weight machines, ellipticals, treadmills, etc.), a free weight section, a matted workout area, and an open dance floor for group events. There's also a running track on the third floor. For some reason this gym is WAY emptier than the gym in Morton Hall. The machines are almost always open, and the ventilation is better in comparison. There's also a water bottle refill station in the left corner and a coat rack on the right corner. During my visits I've seen group classes such as spin, free weight drills, and Zumba.

My best description is Planet Fitness' step sister. It's clean, friendly staff, and an abundance of workout equipment. Things that may matter: - free weights don't exceed 75lbs - only 4 benches (tends to get congested) - only one smith machine - two cable machines - 20 treadmills (+/- I didn't really count lol) - USUALLY EMPTY (every time I've went, maybe 10 people there who were actually using the equipment not taking a class) It's a basic gym that has everything you need to get a good work out in. Mostly women go there, so, for those ladies that feel intimidated by the male infested Morton's gym, try this one.

Yes, the building AC and the sauna in the men's locker room were down, but I didn't come for the sauna and the temperature at 5:30-7:00 AM was very agreeable for this time of year.

The indoor track was great and they offer a huge array of Life Fitness equipment inside. The free weights were very nice. I mainly used the NOFFS side and the dumbbells. I really enjoyed this facility and will visit again as soon as I return to the area. It was never very crowded at my early hours and I never had to wait for any weights or equipment.

I went to Planet Fitness, Waterford, CT, this afternoon at 3:45 to sign up for a membership and had…read morea very disappointing encounter at the front desk that left me questioning their commitment to customer service or any commitment! Upon my arrival, I approached the front desk where a young woman & a young man, seemingly staff members based on their uniforms, were deeply engaged in a conversation at the back of the reception area. After waiting for a few minutes without acknowledgment, I had to interrupt them to express my interest in joining. The response I received was disturbing, to say the least. Instead of a warm welcome or inquiries like "Glad to have you here" or questions about my reasons for choosing Planet Fitness, previous visits to this location, familiarity with their equipment, or interest in a tour (which I would have appreciated), the young woman immediately asked if I had my routing and account number. This abrupt and impersonal approach, as her opening words, made a lasting and decidedly negative impression on me. I turned and began to leave but then returned to the desk because I had promised my partner that I would join, I was then informed that I could use the app to join, and when I declined, I was handed an iPad to fill out my information. This process redirected me to an email and then an online app. She could have just told me this, avoiding the task of populating my information multiple times. Throughout my time filling out the form, the staff members returned to their casual conversation, ignoring me and not asking another question. I finished the form, turned and left without a word from them. This experience left me feeling undervalued as a new member and EXTREMELY dissatisfied with the level of professionalism and customer engagement displayed by these Waterford CT Planet Fitness employees. While it might seem unreasonable to voice my concerns given the minimal membership fee of $10 per month, I can't help but surmise that such a nominal charge indicates a glaring absence of investment in staff training, particularly in the crucial area of customer service. The cost-effective pricing model has resulted in a scenario where the front-line staff, who are expected to be the face of the brand, demonstrate a notable shortfall in fundamental customer service skills and abilities. My experience has left me considerably disillusioned with PF as an organization, but it is CHEAP. It's disheartening to witness how these impersonal and uncaring representatives, who should ideally embody the company's values and ethos, fall short of delivering even the most minimal level of customer interaction and satisfaction. This situation not only reflects poorly on the company's training regimen but also raises questions about the organization's overall commitment to quality and customer experience.
