Nice staff. Good location! Horrible amenities: No Sauna ! No pool! No wipes! No towels( I pay a special fee but not available). Coral Gables deserves a decent LA FITNESS! Corporate find a new location w proper amenities!

It’s unbelievable how La Fitness corporation lets this franchise run how it does. Suppose you want to work out with average weight; good luck finding dumbbells that are scattered across the entire gym. I’ve been paying this location for over three years, and it always feels like I’m going into an easter egg hunt. I believe they re-rack dumbbells at the beginning of every year. This location brings down the reputation of the LA fitness brand. Out of the entire south of Florida, this is by far the worst location. The members who come here are already used to this gym’s disaster. Most of us come here because it’s the closest and we have no other option unless we want to drive for an extra hour. Managers won’t do anything about it. if I were the owner I would make it a must for employees to re-rack weights once the gym closes so when members come early morning, they can get what they pay for. I don’t know who this franchise owner is, but im pretty sure all he or she does is collect passive income. This location has not been appropriately managed in years; they are still fixing a pool since 2009. They don’t care about reviews.

I wish there is a “zero” option to describe my experience in this location. I have been working out for years and tried different gyms. I have been part of LA Fitness for several years and so far LA Fitness at Coral Gables has been the worst experienced ever. The service, the management of this gym 100% rude and the attention is poorly. The equipments, the entire gym is old, and dirty. I have been in LA Fitness locations in Boston, Portland, Maryland, and North Florida, and I thought that now that I moved to South Florida…The attention and everything will be the same as others LA Fitness in the States, and the reality is that I will never go back to Coral Gables. I rather have a membership in a different gym where they care about the costumer. The manager Jerrie Rodriguez lost a costumer for his ineptitude and lack of service. I cannot express more than LA Fitness will never be a place I would like to go. I rather be part of a better club even is a little bit more expensive.

This LA fitness is criminally mismanaged. There are always 4 “sales” people who sit at their desk and look at their phones. I have never seen them do anything, and there is plenty of work that needs to be done at this gym. 60% of the equipment needs replacing, and the dumbbells are never, and I mean never in the right spot. In another brilliant move they have also have removed all of the sanitizing wipes and disinfectants for the machines. The next pandemic will start at La Fitness Coral Gables branch.

This review has been viewed over 5922 times. This is an update from my original review. This location is closer to my house but sometimes I drive to Sunset because this club on Coral Way used to be very dirty, and has no pool, sauna, jacuzzi spa, and basketball court. Well I came in today (9/20/2016) and even though there's still a few broken machines I also noticed the new ones that were added (which is awesome). The gym seemed to be very clean now and didn't smell as bad as it used to. I will save some gas now that I'm coming here again, and I'll just drive to Sunset for the pool/spa amenities whenever I need that. Changed my rating up to 3 stars now, management seems to have improved the club!

This LA Fitness location on Coral Way leaves much to be desired. The gym features outdated machinery, unbalanced stair masters, poor lighting, and lockers in bad condition. Access to the gym is a mess, and during peak hours, you'll find yourself waiting a long time to use any weights. It's definitely one of the worst LA Fitness locations, and it could use some serious improvement to provide a better experience. I live 5 minutes away from this location and I rather drive to other ones just because… c’mon LA fitness get it done.

This has traditionally been the worst LA FITNESS that I’ve ever gone to….weights never racked, no WiFi, machines constantly broken, rude staff, etc. However, they have seemed to make some improvements slowly but surely. Newer machines over the last couple of years and doing renovations. Getting better but still below average. Parking and getting to the gym are still difficult at this point.

This is the worst gym ever. I’ve been coming here since 2012. It’s so bad. The AC brakes every other week. The elevators are always broken and then they lock the staircases. If you need a barbell it’s probably by the hidden elevator. IYKYK. DO NOT DO CHEST ON A MONDAY AFTERNOON. As terrible as this gym is I enjoy coming here every day and I will always be a member here. I’ve learned to accept the gym. This gym is not for everyone.

I've been a member of L.A. Fitness in Coral Gables for several months now and I can say it's been a fantastic fitness journey. This gym itself is well equipped with a wide range machines, free weights and various workout areas. What truly sets this location apart is the exceptional leadership of Manager Fernando. His commitment to providing outstanding customer service and ensuring a positive experience for all members is truly commendable. The staff at L.A fitness are friendly and attentive making overall going to the gym enjoyable.

You would never imagine of you are in the USA when walked into this LA fitness at coral way lcoation. The lockers are million years old with rusty with wet musty floors all over, u gotta be nuts when want sauna or pool here. Almost all equipments are old models back from genesis. I bet even gyms in Haiti or Zimbabwe are better equipped than this LA fitness in coral way, just thousand feet away from Coral Gables’ miracle mile!

The gym itself isn't a bad gym. It's the members. For some reason, they believe it's not their responsibility to return any weights to where they belong. The dumbells are a total wreck; it's hard to find a pair of dumbells let alone the weight you want. Half the free-weights are on the floor instead of the racks. The members appear to have a total disrespect for their fellow members in their refusal to put weights away. It's sad because it could be a nice gym but as it is, one spends a lot of time simply looking for weight. And I really don't get it because the members seem courteous when they need a weight that you might be using - so why won't anyone put anything away? Working out here is a frustrating experience at best. The gym management just seems to not care. Maybe they've just given up trying, but I believe that if they found a way to boost gym pride, maybe the members would want to have a gym where half their workout time isn't spent searching for weight.

I can admit the equipment in here does need a tad bit of Tlc but overall the new staff is very nice and accommodating and they have janitors around the clock cleaning up the place. On the other hand the members that go here have no consideration for other people they’ll leave dumbbells everywhere after being told they have to put them back , throw paper towels everywhere and will literally run you over just to scan in before you. Overall great gym and if you haven’t checked out the classes you should cause the trainers are awesome as well !

The worst LA fitness I have ever been too. I just moved to Coral Gables and Love it. One of the best areas of Metro Miami and the worst gym ever. Staff does not help restack weights, Equipment is not only old, but rusting and dirty, I was taking a shower and there was bugs in my shower. As this gym is literally a 5 min drive for me, I am now looking for another LA fitness to go to... so sad as this gym in no way represent the Coral Gables Community.

Everything in the other reviews is true, the place is dirty and a mess. People want to use your machine between reps and others showing off dropping weights in the floor trying to impress everyone. Stay away from this place, you’ve been warned.

This LA Fitness in Miami is the worst. Most of the equipment is broken, the weights are scattered everywhere, and the gym is consistently dirty. The staff is only friendly when it comes to signing people up or selling their services. There's a Hispanic woman on the sales staff who wears obvious fake breast and butt implants, and sometimes she works out at the facility. I had the unpleasant experience of her rudely telling me to move from the equipment I was using because she needed it. Many staff members do not speak English.

This is the worst gym I know in the United States, 90% of the equipment is lacking maintenance, broken, dirty, there is a horrible shortage of weights. They have the first floor of the gym full of machines for cardio exercises that are rarely in use 50% of the machines and on the second floor there are people lining up to be able to do exercises because they are not enough. The air conditioning of the place is very bad, there are places where you freeze and others where you get dehydrated because the cold doesn't come, the bathrooms or speak, there are always papers on the floor, many of the water faucets are broken and many times there is not even paper to dry your hands. The water to drink on the second floor is always hot. Some televisions do not turn on and those that turn on are difficult to see the image, they are old and low resolution and the music is often simply off. The only thing that can be highlighted about the place is the staff who work there, unfriendly and with excellent customer service. The truth is that I never return to this LA Fitnees again.

It’s unfortunate that for such a nice area such as the Gables, this is what the Gables LA Fitness brand represents. Weights all over the place, or not enough weights all together, lack of cleaning wipes, and old AF. I travel often so I’ve had the chance to visit other LA Fitness. This has by far been the worst.

This place discriMinates against non US citizens , I had a 3 day guest pass via email from this place, when ı went there on the 12 th of January, the membership advisor told me that ı should bring an ID to activate it, ı Said ı come from İstanbul and my project was finished. I also told him that ı was a prior Equinox member ,and my membership was over and ı was going back to Türkiye soon. He let me see the club, ı took a cardio kickboxing class who was thought by a fat excessively overweight woman , ı also saw that the weight training section is too cramped , too many people in the field, and noisy . The shower room offers no towels and the clientele is no parwith Brickell Equinox , below average, the guys were chatting and staring at people rather than exercising which made me really uncomfortable Since he told me that ı should bring an Id to activate and ı Said maybe ı should give a second chance , went there on the 12 th january to take a bodyworks class, when ı showed my ID , he Said it should be a US ID, he did not say that it should be a US Id when ı first came here, ı became a member to equinox whose membership is 200 dollars per month, they did not ask for a US Id , they accepted my Turkish one On the guest pass they are providing, it does not say a US Id should be provided only you are required to be over 16 and you should sign a waiver of liability , they are discriminating against non US citizens , this is purely discrimination The Gym is very mediocre, with below average quality with guys staring at you and making you uncomfortable , ı will never forget the cardio kickboxing instructor , she was seriously overweight with no muscles, only fat dangling on her underarms, stomach etc, ı guess no physically fit instructor wants to give classes at this place and these chubby people are teaching , a sports instructor should be Slim and fit I would never be a member of this company even if ı stayed here longer , compared to equinox , it is very mediocre Dr TÜBA Yeşilkaya

friendly staff and big gym to workout at, plus the people going are nice n mind their own business. however PLEASE bring back the cleaning wipes, i’ve waited on machines for the sweat of the previous person to dry before i use it. it’s nasty. the gym has great potential if wipes were everywhere and machines were given more maintenance.

This used to be THE location to go to when I was in HS. It’s been 8 years since then. Im and on and off customer. This is always the club I return to due to reasonable monthly and distance from me. I took a 2 year break and after coming back I was baffled with how horrible it looks. The building parking lot makes me feel like the building will fall down any moment. We’ve had days where a/c not working and there are leaks from the roof. About 3 have sprung. The equipment is dated but I honestly don’t mind that. I do mind that I have to look around 10 minutes for matching dumbbells. It’s seen better days

This gym is what everyone has said already— dirty, nonsensical, missing or broken machines and equipment, etc. The only redeeming quality is there are several classes I like but it’s only the teachers that make the classes good. To take to a step further, the people at the front desk have absolutely no idea what they are doing. It’s virtually impossible to close your account. They make you jump through hurdles and they confuse you. Please just save your $ it’s not worth it.

Individuals do not rack their weights here. This location has a broken elevator so it is an interested journey to get to the entrance. You get what you pay for with this facility. The staff that are at the entrances do not greet their customers and are not friendly. I have had zero instances of friendly staff. The member services department did not cancel my membership, even when I gave them 30 days notice before my next payment. Now I get calls from the call center and LA Fitness continues to try and charge my credit card each day of the week. Despite me telling two different call centers that I had cancelled my membership.

Everything inside the bathroom is rusted. Lockers are in terrible condition, shower curtains falling apart, changing stations don’t have enough surfaces and even the diffuser is rusted. I fear I’ll get tetanus if I come in the bathroom.

Of all the LA Fitness Locations in the area, this is the only one that has not been renovated. There's nothing wrong with older equipment if it's properly maintained and operating. However that's not the case at this location. I understand money was lost due to the Pandemic. But as people begin to gradually venture out again, they're interested in working out and possibly joining a gym. The gym should be well kept, and attractive to new members. The money will come. Unfortunately this is the location closes to where I live but it's more the last resort of the locations that I choose to workout at. Time to Renovate!

LA Fitness in Coral Way, Miami could be the best gym I’ve gone to. Everyone is extremely friendly and professional. The gym is always very clean And affordable. This particular gym has always felt like a small community to me. I highly recommend the gym to locals.

The worst LA fitness in South Florida. There is not enough equipment to do exercises and the ones that exist are very old and in poor condition. The elevator is always broken, the air conditioning doesn't work most of the time. I don't recommend it to anyone. 🤮🤮🤮

Gym is very poorly maintained and managed. Gym goers have no gym etiquette what so ever and there is no one from management in sight to in-force it. Free weights are scattered all over the gym, under machines and at far ends of the gym. People mostly on their phones or with friends hogging machines, benches and weights. Other than some machines themselves being dangerous to work on, wiggly benches and sharp metal attachments on walls. Honestly if you are an avid gym goer this is the worst gym you can possibly go to. Tried reaching out but no luck.

Signing up is easy. But trying to cancel your account is like jumping threw hoops. You call the gym and the gyms tell you to send an email, send an email and they reply with go to the gym. This is horrible terrible experience at this location, I get it it’s a public gym and you got to share the equipment, but when you go to the staff to get them to enforce this rule, they look at you like a cry baby and tell you to wait. I refuse to continue to pay my money somewhere where I sharing isn’t enforce. These gym bums hog all the equipment, buddy buddy with the staff, or hell even afraid. Personally I see why this location has such bad reviews they only hire kids that are more worried about who’s hooking up with who versus actually doing there job. Management seem okay with this too as they’re able to use their phones right in front of management, do yourself a favor and stop supporting this location. If we’re lucky, this location will shut down and theyll put a better gym in its place

This one was very hard for me to handle. As a Fitness Coach myself I've had the opportunity to walk and train in several gyms in different cities. At least this headquarter in coral gables is a no no for me. Place is not well cleaned, machines are very old and not taken care off, no one supervises the proper use of the facilities, people just throw weights against the floor not minding anyone else is around. Very bad experience for me in this particular case.

I come to this gym couple times per week because it is the closest one to me unfortunately, today the AC wasn’t working in some areas it seems like and it is 104 degrees I hope it will get fixed soon. There was also a big roach that was roaming around the machines. This place needs be cleaned properly and fumigated ASAP. Lots of the machines do not work, are broken, missing parts it’s insane that this is the closest to coral gables.

Place is a mess, dumbbells are everywhere and missing . Yoga room has light dumbbells but can’t be used. Only for classes. When asked to borrow them, they say they don’t have the key... it’s a code lock. Only solution the staff has given me is to come in the morning. 6am is way to late. This gym is not usable at least for me. Unbelievably have to drive extra 45 mins one way to go to a respected gym.

This gym is falling apart, outdated, old machines, rusty, broken, messy, dirty. This is definitely the worst LA Fitness gym I’ve been to. All other locations in Miami are much better. I’m surprised cause coral gables is a nice area they should closed this location down and relocate to a better one and updated. Even the $9.99 monthly gyms look better than this location. So depressing we pay for great service and we are not even getting that at this location.

I was told to write a review so here goes! Pros: A lot of different machines, and I like how the cardio floor is separate from the weights floor. Their staff is attentive. Good location and only $50 for a month membership which is cheapest in Coral Gables that I've found. Cons (not their fault): ALWAYS CROWDED no matter what time of day. Parking is a hassle, you either have to go into the twisty parking lot from hell, or park illegally at Winn Dixie. Cons (their fault): A TON of their machines both cardio and weight machines are rusted, some have the weight knobs broken outright which is pretty unacceptable. 2 of their 5 stationary bikes simply don't turn on. No stretching things such as foam rollers or bands, but they have hula hoops..? Also, half their mats look as if someone chewed into them? Also one of the staff was telling me indepth how to commit insurance fraud in Miami which was kind of funny. All in all, might return for a day but wouldn't recommend a long term membership.

This LA Fitness is the worst. Bathrooms are disgusting, the weights are never put back, and the equipment is falling apart. The only time the staff is friendly is when they need you to respond to a review. This gym needs to be shut down and gutted out. No comparison to other LA Fitness gyms.

It hurts me to have to leave such a bad review, as I know it’s not the employees but LA fitness corporates fault that the entire equipment in this gym is rusted and old. Aside from that, they are the only LA fitness around me, and they open at 6am instead of 5am… there is no sauna,.. it would be okay if at least the equipment was up to date; but you can tell that they will not be investing ANY money into this gym. All the other LAs Ive been to have been updated, but this one is like something out of the 1970’s

Good value for the price, equipment is in decent condition, staff is nice, cleaning staff does a good job. Crowded after 4 PM until closing, hard to workout during these hours.

The instructors are all amazing! The only deal breaker for me is the parking. Hope in the future they will relocate in the same area to an independent building. Just park and go in. Otherwise, I really enjoy it!

This has to be the worst LA fitness i’ve gone to. They really need to consider revamping the entire thing. It’s always dirty, the machines are always broken, the weights are no where to be found, was forced to put cleaned and friendly staff for the survey at the entrance of the gym by the staff.

Machines are old and rusty. People don’t rack weights, they’re all over the place. Good luck trying to find a benches busy times. Parking is a major hassle.

It's a good gym but like most L.A. fitness gyms in the Miami -Dade area except for Bickell the weights are left all over the gym. No one puts them back and the gym doesn't enforce this like other gyms that I've been to. It is annoying to have to constantly search around for weights. The North Miami location has someone who tries to replace them but it is difficult to keep up with everyone leaving them all over. Other gyms post signs to re rack your weights as well as verbally tell members to do so.

It's a good club. There's always parking. The place is usually crowded. Some equipment waiting maintenance for days. Staff is cool.

Needs more dumbbells and someone to put weights back in the correct space. Only one time has anyone in the front desk say hello or goodbye.

My girlfriend and I travel a lot and have been to many gyms but this is worst we’ve ever experienced. This gym is extremely dirty, unsanitary, and a complete mess. Weights, bars, dumbbells ect. were all unorganized. Staff is nice but within the 3hrs of being there, never saw anyone cleaning.

Im here in from Orlando and I wish I was home at the facility there because this LA is a dump👎 Where's mgmt? Not one dumbbell was put back in its place, plates were everywhere. One thing I can't stand is an unorganized gym.

Great gym with various amenities, however pricing could be better and more affordable. Gym is kept clean and is a good supportive work out environment. Literally love going to this gym , check-in is quick easy and contactless . The app is also really good and helps you keep track of your progress and gym membership. There's also an energy bar with tasty drinks yet it does get a little pricy .

Although in the evening, it is difficult to find any open bench or machine and finding the right dumbbells is a miracle, I really enjoyed going to this gym. The front desk staff is friendly and so are the people who go here. I didn't mind having to modify my workout to the available equipment and the people were very nice about sharing equipment. Overall, this gym has the best work out environment I have experienced from any gym.

For it being the main la fitness in a prominent area it sucks! The machines are rusty and outdated. I wish I took a picture but a leg press machine had chewed gum on a weight. NOBODY remarks weights they're all over. To add to that they have a very small amount of light-weight dumbells. Not to mention the "bodybuilders" that hog 3 sets of weights starting at 10 lbs dumbells. It has no pool or sauna. To say this la is lacking is nice. At this point I'd rather pay extra and go to the signature club in Brickell or drive drive to sunset for more order and privacy. I find it insane that a larger facility like in fountain Bleu is cleaner and more organized.

Probably the worst gym I've ever been to. Always chaotic, NO ONE puts anything back, and staff doesn't clean up, scold people, or do much of anything. Impossible to get a good workout in. Equipment has also seen better days.

It was a really bad experience. They close the gym early sometimes or hurry us to get out basically kicking us out!!! And the elevators always broken. This is unacceptable since we are paying for a service and a yearly fee but apparently it’s not getting used for our commodity. I do have to give an extra star because the machines are almost all working which is rare in LA FITNESS.

The people at the counter are friendly and motivated to help you. I have been going there for years but became serious just recently when my doctor told me that if I didn't lose some weight, it would be bad. So far I have lost 11 pounds and feel great. The machines are well maintained and the locker rooms, rest rooms and showers are spotless. I was really impressed when I went there.

very clean place. not much staff which is a plus for gyms. i feel so restricted at planet fitness every where you turn there’s an employee breathing down your neck. super quiet and not very full. nice place if you’re looking to just do your own thing unbothered and move on.

You'll never find dumbbells. 20 min before 10pm they turn off 60% of lights and all ceiling fans. Probably worst gym in florida, for sure worst LA Fitness there is around.

It depends on the Club; the Kendall and 122 ave club is the best of the ones I have visited recently. The LA fitness of Aventura, the acclaimed city of excellence,it is the worst, with very outdated . Very disappointing.

Just wanted to say the parking garage in this building is very sketch, I'm willing to bet it's not up to code. But I just wanted to share that this place has the biggest locker room of all time and 50% of it is just wasted space, theres a room there that I am Curtain was for the sauna and in the past 5 years of seeing this place, still no sauna.... what gives?!

The management at this gym didn't seem to care much about the customers or the staff. The customer service was lacking, and the equipment looked old and poorly maintained. It wasn't up to the standard I've seen at other LA Fitness locations in the US. I'm currently stationed in Miami with the Navy and I can't help but miss the awesome LA Fitness gyms in Arizona and Texas. The ones in Phoenix, Houston, Dallas, and San Antonio are way better. They're modern and completely different from what you'll find in Miami LA Ftnss.. I give 3 stars only because it is reasonably priced and there are worst gyms out there. It's not the worst, but when you compare it to the amazing LA's in other regions, it falls short. The workout was decent, but the management could improve their attitude and the customer service.

WORST LA fitness! No dumbbells, multiple machines broke, bathrooms are old and disgusting! Couple bench are broken and I almost get injury, they have been months like that, they don’t fix it! The bathrooms look that they haven’t been update for the past 20 years, they look like a sketchy bus station! Today the AC was not working, I will never come back to this gym. The manager told me that the conpany doesn’t want to fix anything, “we have told them.” Horrible place!
