Planet Fitness – Clifton

Just recently became a member and I have to say everyone is very nice, the place is really clean, I see employees constantly cleaning the machines. It isn’t extremely packed all the time which I love. Great place to work out and tan!

I am normally not a fan of corporate gyms but this Clifton location is clean and has adequate weights and cardio equipment. The staff is friendly but if you want detailed fitness instruction you will have to see a trainer. Not sure on what packages they offer but I strongly suggest taking advantage of professional instruction.

I used to go to the Planet Fitness in East Harlem, now I started going to this one. It’s been ok so far. I’ve been to roughly 3 – 4 different Planet Fitnesses since joining and they all are pretty much the same. It doesn’t have any of the bells and whistles that a lot of other gyms have, however, If you’re just looking for a cheap gym to come get a good workout in day in and day out, then this is your place.

This gym is an ok gym for the price. There is no great maintenance and half of the customers are ratchet along with the staff. The staff is usually rude and never greet you nor provide good customer service. The male staff is always starring which makes it uncomfortable and I have talked to other women at the gym who have agreed. The staff is usually yelling, running around, and acting very unprofessional. Overall horrible customer service and sales skills. While closing the male staff who close are very rude and tell people to start leaving. I was in the locker room five minutes before closing and a young male comes and turns off the lights while I’m in there. As I’m walking out the staff is always starring and has no courtesy and no professional training. dont waste your time here. People only come for cheap memberships.

Staff doesn’t seem to care about members’ concerns. Parking sucks. Roof is always leaking. Half of the male members do nothing but stare at female members. Very uncomfortable.

I go to planet fitness down by me and maybe because of that I am biased but, in no way did I enjoy coming to this planet fitness at all. The gym itself was huge but, it was mainly filled with treadmills and cardio machines, they had a section in the back for those who want to lift weight which was a small basically 20 foot by 20 foot section cramped full of people. When I say cramped there was literally like 10 people there made you feel unmoveable. The weights were disappointing as they only had free weights up to 60 lbs which really shocked me I have never been to one that had less then 75 lbs so needless to say I could not do some of workouts with the proper weight. The locker room was nice however very clean a lot of lockers and even the showers were cool with soap dispensers in them. However I don’t think I will be returning unless it is a serious necessity I will find another one in the area next time.

I like the fact that the machines are pretty clean most of the time and are in working condition.
I do not like the fact that the 30 Minute circuit is not supervised. Everytime I work out there I have to go around the people from the free weight area who use it as their own personal gym. They come in and work out on a particular machine and go back and forth or they sit on a machine for 20 to 30 minutes forcing you to go around them. I have never seen a worker in the area making sure the circuit was being followed.

Great place to get that workout in! Plenty of cardio options, weight machines, and free weights!
