24 Hour Fitness - Los Angeles (CA)

2 /5 Mr. Hart: Pretty RAGGEDY. Two stars is generous for the condition of this gym. Giving one extra star because the location is good and the building itself is nice - three floors with big windows and a nice view. Most of the equipment is old and poorly maintained - if maintained at all. Theres always several treadmills out of order and usually several other pieces of equipment not working. Weights and other equipment are spread all over the gym and you may or may not find matching dumbbells, desired weights or pins for the weight machines. The sauna and jacuzzi are usually out of order, but I cant imagine wanting to step into either at this location anyway. Also, no A/C The whole place is pretty dirty, but the bathrooms are probably the worst part of the whole experience. There is mold around all the faucets and in the grout. The sinks and countertops are stained and the drains smell. The urinals dont really flush and havent for a while. The solution for the non-functioning urinals is putting a trash bag over some, or all of them and sometimes burning incense to cover the smell. But I dont think theres ever been an attempt to actually repair the toilets. 2 weeks ago, one of the urinals had actual pee leaking out running across the floor for 2 consecutive days, maybe longer. Thats two days of people walking through pee and then tracking it through the club onto the floors people are using for stretching and crunches etc. Nasty. Bottom line is, there are many, much better alternatives in LA for the same price as 24 Slauson. And, to whoever is responsible for copy/pasting the "looks like we have room for improvement" response to this review, no need. Ive been going here for a couple years and its obvious no attempts are being made to make this gym what it could be. Moving on!

1 /5 LaVoz Eddy (La Voz): One of the worst 24hr fitness gyms out there. Always dirty and I guess the cleaning equipment just sits there for decor. The machines are dirty and dry sweat. The parking is a mess when busy hours. Definitely not coming back and corporate needs to do something about staff and place

4 /5 Dru: 24 hour fitness has started to fix this gym! Just need to replace the missing free weights and plates and replace the toilets and urinals and it will be a 5 star 24 hour fitness! The sauna is great. The steam room is good. The Jacuzzi is nice and they have a swimming pool and it’s real close to the freeway and come check it out. Maybe you guys can even change this one to 24 hours :-)

1 /5 Jason Purisima: 08/09/25 at 753pm. Sauna temp less than 100 degrees. About 430pm everyday the sauna temperature goes down to less than 160. On Friday, Saturday, Sunday nights the sauna is pretty much off. 06/03/25 at 314pm. Sauna down. 05/27/25 at 110pm. Sauna down. 05/24/25 at 750pm. Sauna down. At this point they should mention that the Sauna will be closed on Weekends and Holidays. 05/18/25 at 821pm. Sauna and Jacuzzi down. Lights off. 05/04/25 at 851pm. Sauna and Jacuzzi down. 04/26/25 at 600pm. Sauna down. 04/19/25 at 834pm. Sauna down. 04/14/25 at 845pm. Sauna down. 04/06/25 at 610pm. Sauna down. 04/05/25 at 8pm. Sauna down. Employee states he does not know how to turn it on. Educate and build your staff. 01/21/25 at 8pm. Sauna down. ••• Unfortunately I have to waste my time writing this review. No exaggeration, for 4 consecutive weekend evenings, the sauna has been inconveniently closed. The next weekend the sauna temperature was inadequate, if hot at all. Dumbbell rack is always empty. Also, I think video recording should be prohibited. This gym has the potential to be better but that’s another discussion. 08/29/24 at 922pm the sauna is working but does not get hot enough because too many people in and out. No room to sit. Also filled out a survey that was emailed to me that asked if I should be contacted via email or called. It’s been more than 2 weeks and yet to hear from 24hr. 08/31/24 at 1154am thanks to the employee “Cam” for wiping down equipment, and reracking weights that clients should have done. For the first time, I’ve seen dumbbells on the rack. Having a range of different pound dumbbells is a different story. Unfortunately, the sauna is still a battle to get to a temperature that feels therapeutic. 09/16/24 at 940pm the sauna is not hot at all. Last week it had one day where finally felt like a sauna. Now it’s back to wasting time in a crowded room. When is this establishment going to get its gym working appropriately. Steam room (at least 3 weeks now) and jacuzzi (over 2 months now) still out of service. And kettle bells holding doors open instead of doorstops. 09/24/24 at 545p the sauna still not therapeutic. Experienced a 10lbs plate taken off my machine and the machine next to me the user denied taken it from me. I had to walk around the section to find another plate. Unbelievable! Jacuzzi and steam room are finally working. 09/27/24 at 1256p the DRY sauna is not dry simply because the temperature never gets over 150 degrees. It’d be nice to reach 185 degrees to be therapeutic. People that go into the sauna coughing and snotty. Definitely does not feel safe. People come into the sauna right out of the pool to warm up and then walk out. Management needs to be changed to start improving this location. 9/30 at 400pm, the sauna feels much more therapeutic at approximately 158 degrees. I think steps in the right direction. But let’s at least get to a therapeutic 175-180 degrees and hope it could be consistent. Men’s Locker room was just cleaned. I see dumbbells on the rack. Thank you! Temporarily earned an additional star (2 stars) let’s keep it! 10/01/24 at 937p the sauna was closed. Here we go again. Back to square one. SMH! 10/11/24 at 932p sauna is working perfectly! Therapeutic! Thank you! Props to the GM Daniel for taking care of the requests! Thank you! Let’s make this gym the #1 location of all 24hrfitness locations. Went up to 3 stars and hoping to give that 5 star review sooner than later! 11/18/24 at 200p were back to issues with the sauna. After weeks of waiting and asking for the sauna temperature to get therapeutic, Ive decided to update my review to 2 stars. 12/17/24 at 1252 I haven’t heard back from the District manager after an email sent November 18, 2024 in regards to issues, thought, and possible recommendations. The sauna still never gets therapeutic, sitting in a temperature 160 degrees or less at times. Not to mention stair masters out of service. Honestly, I give up on trying to help this location. Very disappointing. This is my final review for this location.

1 /5 Rusty Shackleford: THE ONLY REVIEW YOU NEED (AS A CONSUMER): • People shave in the sauna • 5 out of 14 treadmills are broken. • 3 out of 5 exercise bikes are broken. • The sauna is always broken. • The elevator is always broken. • The hot tub is always broken. • The men’s restroom is consistently filthy. • The 2nd floor smells like cheese or onions half the time. • The 2nd floor bathroom has a persistent foul odor. • There are always 2-3 people hoarding multiple sets of free weights. • The pec/delt fly machine is always broken. • The squat rack, bench press, leg press, lat pulldown, and workout benches are always occupied by people doing excessive sets. • The free weights are dirty and rarely have matching grips or weights. • The cardio area is over crowded with elliptical machines that no one ever uses • When open, the sauna smells like mildew. • Almost all of the machines are from the 90s or early 2000s • 20% of the weight room is taken up by outdated ‘lying crunch’ machines that nobody uses • The workout mats are filthy. • Parking is getting worse due to reduced validation hours (from 3 hours to 2) and frequent random closures of the main lot. • The staff has little to no professionalism nor work ethic BIGGEST ISSUE: THE GYM’S CULTURE There is a noticeable culture of inappropriate and predatory behavior at this location. • In the locker room and pool area, some individuals engage in perverted behavior. There have even been cases (in the men’s locker room) where shower curtains were tampered with (holes cut in them) to violate privacy. • Women frequently experience uncomfortable staring and harassment from some male members, particularly when working out alone. • Some men in the pool area exhibit inappropriate behavior, making it an uncomfortable space for others. These issues—combined with the lack of maintenance, poor hygiene, and equipment failures—make this gym a terrible value for the price. Would not recommend.
