GB3 West, Fresno CA

Up until today I would have given this place 5 stars. I go every morning my husband and I and the staff is super friendly. Today I took my 9 year old to the daycare which was a massive mistake. The lady was so rude to my daughter. My daughter called me to pull her out. Daycare staff was very argumentative when asked what happened. I was so frustrated and upset. Children watching children. Only bad part about the gym though. Every other staff member I have interacted with has been amazing.though.

Been coming almost every day for the last ~6 (?) months, place is pretty solid, I don't use the pool or sauna.or the bathrooms. So, I guess this is a review of the main area and it's always clean, staff is decent, I don't particularly ask much of them so I have no complaints. Come midday noon to two o'clock for slowest times. I don't like coming after five really because of how many people go and I have to cycle through different areas and mix up my routine in order to find available spots. At this point I'm rambling. Come with no expectations and you will be thoroughly pleased. It's a gym.

The best selection of equipment in Fresno. Has a pool also. Its pricey compared to other gyms (about $40/mo.) But it's well worth it. They have freeze option if you want to freeze your account or specific people on your account which is convenient. Staff is friendly and theres plenty of parking. Only Con I would say is that it gets Too busy during peak hours, I go during the slower hours and its still a bit busy. But that just shows you how popular this gym is. Hope this helps!

I joined GB3 a few years ago. For the price, this place rocks. You just can't beat it. I am a former competitive swimmer and really enjoy using their 25-yard pools which are open at each location for lap swimming.
I do have a few critiques though. The pools are sometimes overran with 'bobbers' or people just walking in the pool lanes as well as kids playing around unattended. I would like to see GB3 better enforce pool rules/etiquette so that individuals who are actually trying to complete a lap swim workout can do so. I have been at the pool when all four lanes are taken each with one person walking or bobbing in the lane. They could easily all move into one lane to allow for lap swimmers, but they will not do this on their own.
Also, do not go to the pool on Sunday nights, the daycare is closed and the pool gets overran with unattended kids, even in the section roped off for lap swimming. The front desk does not seem to care. If kids were playing on workout equipment, there would be complaints filed and dealt with immediately. However, they don't seem to realize that the pool is my piece of workout equipment and should be respected as such.

Anyway, this gym, particarly the pool, could use some improvements, but overall this is a good place to go for a fair price. I apologize for this long review/rant - I have shared this before with the front desk and emailed management with no responses.

2 stars because this isn’t really a judgement free zone and I’ve noticed that some of the members (younger crowd) have made fun of other members working out who are bigger or older. Like seriously? Are we in kindergarten? Staff should hold those members accountable for their behavior. Staff can be a bit uptight at times and not very helpful. I’ve gone to planet fitness and love how it is a judgment free zone. If planet fitness had a pool, sauna, spa and steam room I’d be going there. Steam room could be kept cleaner and spray bottles to wipe down machines and mats after use would be nice to have due to high traffic at this location.

Watch for the hidden cost
Try add my wife and cancel my son membership. They still want me to pay additional cost. They say they have couples rates
Poor management

So far best gym I've been to, staff is very friendly and gym is kept clean, people are nice, so far haven't had issues

Excessively crowded all days except Sat/Sun. Clean and equipment is well kept. Staff are nice and generally helpful.
I've been attending GB3 gyms since end of 2013, this location is very crowded.

Treadmills need serious facelift. Still generally one of the dirtest gb3s including sunnyside. Floors need a serious mopping.

I frequent most of the GB3 locations in town H4 at specific amenities. I like coming to the one on Palm and West because of the fun and energetic Zumba classes. They are the best! Clean gym great amenities and friendly staff.

Most of the TVs do not work or half the free is distorted. Has to be one of the dirtiest GB3s I have ever been too. I asked them to change the channel, this is a Sunday morning during NFL season and they have infomercials on, no one ever changed the channel. Please fire management, this is terrible.

I had one of the daycare workers snatch my baby out of my hands. My husband witnessed it also. I’m not sure what her issue was, but if someone could please reach out to me that would be nice.

Huge gym and parking lot. Lots of machine options. Even with the size of building it still gets crowded at certain times of day.

Excellent gym, but being open 24 hours has taken its toll though. It definitely looks older inside than the other four.

My dad was minding his own business trying to lose weight and be healthy this morning when he was made fun of by someone at this gym. Gb3 needs to do something to prevent this. It’s not right and my dad was hurt and so am I, he didn’t deserve that.

It's a great place and is huge but as great places are they're also packed, but I still get a intense workout! Awesome place

GB3 are solid gyms with plenty of equipment. I have been a member for 9 years and using this gym ever since it opened

It’s not the closes GB3 to get to but when I’m on this side of town it’s nice to have it availalbe. The only real complaint that I have is the location is a bit round about to get to but they needed a large area and this works. The equipment inside is always clean and I’ve never had a problem with the staff. Maybe the one other downiside is this layout seems a bit more cramped then other GB3’s I’ve been to but that’s not a big deal. Still a good value.

The gyms Staff/ Managment does a HORRIBLE job keeping the locker room, restrooms, showers, sinks and floors clean. NOT TO MENTION THE SAUNA! IT REEKS OF URINE AND IS ALWAYS DIRTY INSIDE THERE (trash, used gum, water bottles). It's disgusting. The gentleman that takes care of GB3 on palm and Ness is great. He's always cleaning and keeping things smelling clean and fresh. That guy deserves a raise.

ALWAYS PACKED! Gym most equivalent to inshape just wish it had more of a secluded area for women.
