About
Cold Plunge & Sauna
This 24 Hour Fitness location offers a sauna and steam room as part of its wellness amenities, providing members with spaces for heat therapy and post-workout recovery. The facility also includes a jacuzzi and a lap pool, creating a comprehensive recovery area. Gym members note the availability of these amenities as a key feature of the facility.
Atmosphere
The gym is a large, multi-level facility with floor-to-ceiling windows offering great city views. Members describe a generally good vibe, though many note it becomes very crowded after 4 PM. The facility is open 24 hours a day. Members have observed signs about upcoming renovations, with some work already started, and express excitement for the new look.
Staff
Feedback on staff is mixed, with several specific individuals receiving high praise. Members mention helpful managers like Derrick, who is noted for being personable. Staff members like Dee (Damonyae) and Jerry are highlighted as exceptionally friendly, informative, and helpful. Conversely, some members feel the staff can seem uninterested in addressing maintenance concerns, and there is noted high turnover among trainers and management.
Additional Amenities
The gym features a large amount of equipment, with most reported to be in working order. There is a dedicated stretching area upstairs. However, members report ongoing issues with equipment maintenance, including broken cardio machines like StairMasters and treadmills, worn equipment grips, and detached sinks in the locker rooms. The men's locker room cleanliness could be improved. A swimsuit water extractor has been broken and removed.
Location & Expansion
This location on Richmond Ave. is a primary option for some members following the closure of other nearby 24 Hour Fitness locations, such as on Voss Road and San Felipe. The gym has undergone temporary closures for renovations, which can inconvenience members as the next nearest facility is over 10 miles away.
