Why do you use object type? You should use GeoPoint.

if you wont to set NSArray than parse Datatype is Array not Object

//Set Value
    PFObject * objLocationClass=[PFObject objectWithClassName:@"Class_Location"];

    PFGeoPoint * geoPoint=[PFGeoPoint geoPointWithLatitude:latitude longitude:longitude];
    [objLocation setObject:geoPoint forKey:@"location"];
//Get Value
    PFGeoPoint *userGeoPoint = (PFGeoPoint *)[objLocation valueForKey:@"location"];
    //userGeoPoint.latitude or userGeoPoint.longitude
