Very disappointing experience tonight (Oct 22)around 10:30pm. The front desk staff (the guy)deliberately made things difficult for me and refused to let me in, even though it’s clearly my own account. I already tried to fix the issue before and was told it would be updated, but apparently nothing was done. I’ve been a loyal member and have never had this kind of problem before — it felt completely unnecessary and disrespectful. Planet Fitness is supposed to be a “Judgment Free Zone,” but that’s definitely not how I was treated tonight.

Always a good experience at this location where I initially signed up. I was concerned a bit being 54 and this being a college town, (go dawgs) which doesn’t interest me but the clientele is really chill and laid back with minimal roosters walking around.

I like it so far since they have lots of machines. Most ppl are really chill which is nice. Update: they did replace the pin! Apparently a customer had put the screw driver there I did have some issues the other day though. The first elliptical I went to wouldn't turn on and the second creaked really loud. Then when I used a leg extension machine the pin was missing and a screw driver was being used in it's place.

Pros: •Staff is polite and responsive •I always see people cleaning, whether I come at 1am or 11am •Broken things tend to get fixed within a few visits •The vibe is very chill and everyone does their own thing •I’ve never had to wait more than a minute or so (during peak times, for one of the few machines with no duplicates) Cons (sort of, more like minor annoyances): •Would really love a gym with sauna/hot tub/pool, but it also wouldn’t be as affordable as PF •Same deal with a squat rack, but I am fully aware that it isn’t PF’s business model and that’s okay! •As some other reviewers mentioned, there are occasionally homeless folks inside (1 or 2, late below freezing nights). They have never bothered me, I have never bothered them, I don’t feel unsafe at all. It’s not uncommon for ACCPD to stop in and stretch their legs and check on staff for a few—in other words, I’ve never felt uncomfortable or unsafe. •The only thing that isn’t clean in the building is the mirror wall 😂 but given how clean everything else is, I’m not losing any sleep over it. •My only REAL complaint: the crowd meter. 2/10 is peopley. 3/10 is almost overwhelming for me. I’d hate to imagine 10/10. I’m not sure how they determine the levels, but I’d recommend coming when it’s at 3 or less. Overall I’ve compared it extensively with other local gyms and really haven’t found anything better, especially for the price point.

I was sitting near the front desk tonight and saw the whole thing happen. The staff member at the desk — a Black guy — was clearly giving an Asian member a hard time for no reason. The member was calm and polite, just trying to explain that it was his own account, but the front desk guy kept refusing to let him in and acted very dismissive. It really looked like the employee was intentionally making things difficult. The situation could’ve been solved easily, but instead it turned into an unnecessary scene. As someone who watched the whole thing, I felt uncomfortable and disappointed.

Clean, great staff from my experience. My home gym is in Lawrenceville, but I've visited Athens about 4 times and it's been great so far! Thanks Athens Planet Fitness! Keep up the good work!!!✅️❤️

Customer service is not good. They speak to who they want to. The people working out is great. Highly recommend them sending in secret people who work for planet fitness to actually see how they operate.

Absolutely terrible facility. Showers/ dressing rooms are usually filthy. Hot water is down and has been for a few days and no one has an answer when it will be back up. Their response is we have cold water. Makes you wonder how they are able to clean the facility with just cold water but that might explain why it is filthy. This is unacceptable.

Great location and place to be. Clean friendly and wider with lots of equipment. Thanks for opening 24/7

Best PF I’ve been to so far. The staff are always really friendly and someone is constantly cleaning - the machines, the walls, the treadmills, the floors, the counters, always! I have to say to the gym goers here are nice as well.
