    They need to maintain it better. Ripped my Lulu leggings in the Shana because something sharp was sticking out thank god it didn't scratch me

    The gym is always clean and their wipes are always restocked. There is a lady who works at night time who is very kind and makes sure everyone is comfortable and doing okay! The bathrooms are always clean and it never smells bad in the gym.

    Very disappointed this person coming into the gym like that . When everyone is trying to work out . And he cussing saying shut the fuck up my wife looks better than you . When no one was talking about his wife . We are just trying to work out

    Oozing black sludge, don't get this on you or your clothes, it's hard to get out.

    LA FITNESS - VAN NUYS REVIEW Unfortunately this gym is incredibly overcrowded at practically every hour of the day. Doesn't really matter how early or late in the day you come it is swarming with people. But it gets worse... 1. So many broken machines (everything from resistance machines to treadmills) that rarely get fixed. 2. The locker room is filthy 24/7 not once have I stepped in the locker room and noticed how sparkly clean and fresh it smells. It's honestly disgusting, incredibly unsanitary and gross. It smells like there's a sewage leak. Be prepared for dirt, grime, sweat and extremely foul odors at all hours of the night and day. I try to hold my breath when I enter. 3. Have never seen them clean the sauna and shockingly it is absolutely routine to see 20 people packed into it at any given time. Technically there's enough seats for 6 people max. It's a scary cesspool of sweat, bacteria and stench. 4. The classes here are so incredibly obnoxiously loud, you can hear people literally screaming a the top of their lungs and the music blasting through your headphones. Management said the doors are supposed to be closed but when classes are in session people will stand by the doors and are ready to immediately reopen them if you do. 5. Front staff here aren't interested in helping you with any sort of basic requests besides scanning you in. If you ask for anything more they treat you like you're being obnoxious. 6. I honestly wish I didn't sign up here and could get my money back. You were warned! 7. Good luck trying to get ahold of a manager to voice your concerns! Not that they would implement significant changes anyways... 8. Caution, some equipment are literally dripping and oozing with black sludge, don't get this on your skin or clothes. 9. Just saw literal vermin entering/exiting the gym there's no way this place is clean and safe.

    Walking into this place, you're hit with an unpleasant odor--a strong, stinky gym smell that immediately makes you uncomfortable. It's as if sewage is lingering in the air. Clearly, better ventilation is urgently needed to improve the atmosphere.

    This is the absolute worst LA Fitness in the area. The machines are always broken. The ONLY reason I come to this one is because they have a row machine that I absolutely love; it is never in working order. It's been broken for seriously at least 6 months, unless I'm just unlucky and every time I ever come (I try to never come here if I can help it). I haven't been here in months, and I came just for that one: nope! Still broken. I came in today and there was legitimately a dozen machines that were busted, some that were really popular and essential to a workout. It's always packed in here. If they even have air conditioning, it sure doesn't feel like it's on, it's always ridiculously hot. Long lines for every machine, with the rudest gym members I've ever collectively seen at one place. Leave weights everywhere, sweat all over the gear/no towel, and will sit on machines taking their sweet old time/on their phone for 10, 15, 20 minutes while people are waiting. They couldn't care less. The lighting is terrible, there's tons of great natural light coming in and yet they have these 12k fluorescent lights blasting out of the ceiling anyway. Parking lot is terrible, Ive been here on days when cars are driving around looking for a spot for 15 and 20 minutes, like the mall at Christmas time. Avoid this one at all costs. I much more recommend either the one on Coldwater or the one on Balboa in Northridge. The Coldwater one is no frills, but it's rarely ever packed and parking is easier. You can get in and out relatively easily. The one on Balboa has great lighting and all new gear, it's really well taken care of. It looks like a night club inside, it's awesome. Im never coming to this location again, I'll go only for leg day and ONLY if I wasn't able to do leg day someplace else during the week. (I have two gym memberships, so that I don't have to deal with this bullshit)

    Does this location have turf or sleds?

    Yes they do.

    Is the basketball court currently closed?

    Is the indoor pool currently open or is it closed of to the public?

    The pool is open to members during operating hours.

    Are they open yet?

    No. And it seems like they've been closed even longer for this second time. Hopefully we're getting close. Grrrr!

    Does this location have kettlebells (not for personal training)?

    Yes. They also just instituted a mandatory requirement for wearing gloves for safety measures.

    Does this location have heavy bags?

    No they don't.

    Does this location have a pull up machine? (Weight assisted pull ups)

    You mean the one u kneel on and pull your self up then yup it does

    Do they have a daycare? And if so, has anyone used them? I have a 6mo. Thanks in advance!

    They have a kids club. It has certain hours and is an extra fee. I know they have an age limit for babies, don't know off hand how young they accept a baby. I would ask the front desk.

    Does this location have power racks? If So, how many?

    Yes, they have power racks because I have used it there before. But I don't remember how many because it's been awhile. I believe it is 2.

    I've been coming to this location for over 8 years, and I'm honestly confused by what's happened to…read morethe gym. This location used to have solid equipment, especially for back training -- both upstairs and downstairs. Most of those machines are now gone. There's only one incline chest machine upstairs, nothing for decline, and the good shoulder press machines were removed as well. Meanwhile, there are way too many wooden platforms and very little variety in actual strength machines. Upstairs there's one odd back row machine, and that's basically it. The layout makes no sense now. Downstairs, it feels like you're working out while hundreds of people are watching. On top of that, the bench press stations are placed right next to the dumbbells and flat benches, so people are constantly curling and walking around you while you're trying to bench, which is distracting and unsafe. Upstairs, machines are positioned directly facing other people, which is awkward and uncomfortable. Equipment feels scattered and poorly planned -- you walk over to use one machine and suddenly it's placed next to something completely unrelated. I don't understand who redesigned this or why, but the changes have significantly downgraded what used to be a well-equipped gym. What happened to all the good equipment?

    Gym portion is great. Locker rooms and bathrooms are disgusting and need to be renovated asap. I've…read morebeen a member since 2006 and the facilities have never been changed or modernized.

    5 stars - my go-to Equinox location…read more Equinox Studio City is my home gym and I'm here pretty much every day. I've been to Hollywood, DTLA, West Hollywood, Glendale, Santa Monica, and Studio City is still my favorite overall. Biggest thing is cleanliness. For how busy this place gets, it's always maintained. Towels are always stocked, locker rooms are constantly being cleaned, and I've never walked into a shower that was out of products. There's always staff in there keeping everything in check. Another huge win is Erewhon Studio City right next door. You finish your workout and immediately have a solid post-workout meal ready. Nothing beats that. There's no Earth Bar here, but honestly you don't even need it because Erewhon is better. You do have to time your workouts though. Early mornings before 8am are the best, weekends early are even better and usually empty. After 9-10am it starts getting packed, and evenings around 5-7pm are honestly tough if you're trying to get a smooth workout in. People complain about parking because the plaza gets busy, but I've never had an issue. I go early, get a great spot, and I'm out before it gets crazy. One issue I've raised multiple times is people bringing oils into the steam room. When they pour it in, the whole place smells, it sticks to your body and hair, and I've had allergic reactions from it. It happens less now, but when it does it completely ruins the steam room. Feels like something that could be controlled better. The vibe here is more low-key, which I like. People mind their business and just work out. Compared to Hollywood, which can feel more social and sometimes uncomfortable, Studio City feels way more normal and focused. Front desk and trainers are hit or miss. Some are great, some don't even acknowledge you. Trainers here mostly keep to themselves unless you hire them, while other locations feel more welcoming. Not a dealbreaker, just noticeable. Music is at a good level too--it doesn't interfere with your headphones, which I appreciate. At the end of the day, I'm here daily for a reason. If you figure out the timing, this is one of the best Equinox locations in LA.

    Almost $400 a month for a single floor gym? No thank you…read more I couldn't put my finger on it but something about this place just wouldn't allow me to relax. Something just felt very busy and crowded about the space. I never feel anxious working out .. and I gotta be honest I was expecting more. The gym floor just feels CRAMPED. All the cardio machines felt on top of each other. There's a mirror in the center of the floor by the dumbbells that doesn't look secure since it shakes when people drop weights or walk by .. what's that about? If you're someone that likes to do hiit or has your own routine where you just need a little section to exercise, they don't have that. There's people everywhere. There no turf or anything. There's a small stretching area next to the group exercise classroom if you're able to squeeze in and find a space. I do like that they offer theraguns for use in that stretching area. The locker room was probably the best part. Very cozy and very clean. Second best part was the yoga class I took, I enjoyed that. It's nice to have so many classes available, but I'm not one for group classes. Oh yeah, they DID have a versa climber which is rare to find in a gym these days. I appreciated that because I love that thing. Overall I was disappointed, it's just not for me. There's gotta be a better location.
