Gold's Gym in South Boston is very disappointing!

This Gold's gym is terrible! The people who work the front desk are full of attitude, and that's only the beginning. The manager is rude and condescending.



It's always filthy in there. The other day, I had to try 4 or 5 treadmills to find one that didn't have gum stuck to it, or dirty tissues in the drink holders. A foam roller that started off white is now a filthy gray, and the ladies bathroom isn't much better.



The equipment - machines, tv's, etc. break and are never repaired.



Do yourself a favor and find another alternative!

Went to the Gold's Gym in South Boston yesterday after getting a one week guest pass online that lists seven eastern Massachusetts locations. When I got there,the man at the desk said I need to pay $20 and show a photo ID.



I showed him the pass and the self proclaimed manager, Justin, flatly stated that a disclaimer states that it only includes participating locations . It's clear they use the pass as a way of getting bodies into clubs without any intention of honoring the pass.



Too bad. I am a member at Ballys and have been casually looking to switch. Justin's lack of interest and lack of business sense potentially lost my business and who knows how many others. To the owners: You would be advised to reassess management at your club. You have a great location and it seems like you could losing be a great deal of business to a manager apathetic to generating revenue and content on collecting a paycheck

AVOID THE SCAM!!

UPDATED BELOW:

I love Gold's Gyms! Clean, affordable, excellent equipment and facilities. The problem with this particular location is you need a certain level of self confidence to exist there peacefully if you're out of shape. Jerky jock types will definitely size you up in there. Also the women's private gym area is all the way on the other end of the building. From the ladies locker room you have to walk down this long catwalk through the center of the gym where all eyes are upon you as you make your way along. VERY intimidating if you're not part of the 4% of people with a perfect body. The scale in the ladies room has been broken for a while so you have to weigh yourself in front of everybody out in the open area if you want keep tabs on yourself. Icky icky icky if you don't want the world to know you weight. The parking lot jams with people at peak times, the lockers fill up, if you can't stand rap bring your own music. I love the gym, I get an excellent workout, the staff is friendly and helpful, they have great childcare facilities and the cost is fiscally responsible for my budget BUT the atmosphere is not for the faint of heart.



UPDATE: Membership contract ran out and they are STILL charging me even though I no longer have access to the fascility. They refer me to some company call ABC who won't cancel my account until I send them a certified letter saying I want them to. And they will continue to charge me for two months after that. I'm currently in talks with the Attorney General's office about these crooks. AVOID THE SCAM!

South Boston Golds Gym

This is a great gym located between Andrew Square and Broadway T stops off of the Redline. The staff are very friendly, the bathrooms are always very clean and stocked, lockers are free of debris and parking is not a problem as they have a parking lot as well as street parking available. They also allow use of the neighboring business parking lots during off peak hours. The machines are always kept functional and they stock disinfectant bottles and paper towels for people to clean the machines after use. A womans weight room is available and includes free weights as well as machines. Several exercise rooms are located throughout the facility for Pilates, yoga, Abs classes, Bikes, Cardio Kickboxing and so much more. The air is kept at a comfortable level throughout the year. The cardio machines are top of the line and each have a private tv screen for tv shows or music videos. They also have strategically placed big screen tvs for those watching local game
