Done with this Golds. Old equipment and I mean OLD!! Not contemporary at all. Ive been patient. They keep saying they will get new equipment. They wont. Going to 24Hour. Ive been loyal long enough

The best gym, great team spirit and the core value of fitness.King

Golds Gym is my gym, Ive been coming here for about a month now and its been great. This location is in the heart of downtown long Beach. Golds gym has a ton of equipment to choose from so youll never get bored. And whats fun about the membership if you got a premium membership you can choose any one of the golds gym youd like to go to, some may have more or different equipment for you to use like a boxing rink. I highly recommend golds gym for those looking to get fit and start feeling better about yourself.

I have been going to this gym for 3 years, and everything was pretty decent. But lately, every time I come - more and more machines are broken. And there is no substitute for them, only one of each and they are old. Today there were 7 total out of order. I didnt get a chance to finish my exercises. Also I can only come once a week, so its quite disappointing.

I love this gym because everyone works as a team but more like a family.

Ripped me off on a false offer then autocharged my card without permission. Gym closes at like 4pm on weekends, what a joke. Go anywhere but here, check the other 1-star reviews.

I love this Golds gym. The staff is awesome and for the most part, always greets you with a hello and goodbye. They keep it pretty clean but recently the hand soap in the men’s bathroom was broken in all the dispensers. This is what kept the review from being a 5 star. During the time of Covid, this is a necessity.

Representative who sold me the membership was misleading. He lied and said I would only pay $21.99. I was scammed.I purchased the month to month membership. For one month it is $21.99. I cancelled my gym membership after 1 month.Please explain why I ended up paying $21.99 plus $99.99 dollars in gym fees?? Very expensive not worth that much money for just using the gym for 1 month. It’s ridiculous the amount of money I was charged.I really insist that people read the contracts clearly so you don’t find yourself into problems.They have a difficult refund system.These gyms are nothing but scams. Very unsatisfied. 👎👎👎

I really like this gym because it is clean and never crowded when I go early in the morning.The staff is friendly when you have questions plus they are totally non intrusive while you work out. The only reason why I give it a 4 out of 5 is because the hip abductor machine has been broken down over a month before they closed and has still been up for maintenance for the couple of weeks they have still been open. It is the only hip abductor machine and I wonder why they take so long to fix it.Besides that, I also give it a 4 out of 5 because we currently are not allowed to use the sauna, but still have to pay full price for the membership. It is not there fault, the county makes them do this right now, but I still think they should give all members a good discount because of this amazing part of the gym not being accessible anymore.Well, I still recommend this gym, because if you dont care for the sauna or steam room then it really will be a 5 star gym for you!

Love GGDTLA! Hot tub, sauna, steam room, half Olympic pool with lanes, boxing ring, vip lockers with amenities, copious amounts of cardio machines, large sq.ft weights floor, juice bar, retail shop, accesible ready, lovely staff.... Did I forget anything!

Like it cool place to work out.Nice people an Great staff

I love gladys! She’s super nice and speaks Spanish which is 10/10

I have been to gyms and fitness centers all over Los Angeles and Golds Gym in Long Beach is fantastic and checks all the boxes I need. From easy free parking, open large facility, classic result oriented free weight machines as well as clean showers and steam room. This is the gym to get serious and focus.I am looking forward to your reopening after the Covid break.

Club has gone down the drain, dated equipment, poor management, and poor atmosphere. The manager Nicholas shows poor management skills for being a manager. I recommend Crunch or 24hr fitness, which are close by, instead.

I have been a Golds Gym member since 2007. I have spent thousands of dollars in both my gym membership and personal training over these past 14 years. In fact, there has only been a short period of time in my adult life where I havent been a Golds Gym member. It was when I was 23 years old, and had brain surgery to relieve and extract an epidural hematoma, rendering me bedridden for several months to recover. I was a member at the Hollywood location, and could most definitely not do any sort of physical exercise during this time. Instead of accepting my doctors notes and photos of my injury as proof I was incapacitated, they requested I go IN PERSON to the club on Cole Ave., with the right side of my head shaved, and 4 inches of stitches cascading down the side of it, to cancel my membership. This should have been when I stopped going to Golds altogether! I decided to give them another chance when I moved back to Long Beach.I have referred friends and have had them sign up. I have purchased merchandise and spent countless hours exercising in their facilities. In February of 2020, I purchased a personal training pack, much like I would have normally done once it was time to re-up on sessions, completely unaware, much like most Americans, of the then looming pandemic. As we of course know, the country shutdown shortly after that purchase.I went to Golds the day BEFORE the shutdown for a workout, and had a session with my trainer the day prior to that. I then suffered an awful injury rendering me unable to even THINK of exercising from April 2020 - July 2020. In August, I remembered I had sessions that I should probably get refunded, as there was no opening date in sight for gyms, let alone the country. I inquired via email about a refund, and was given this response from a Sindy Rodriguez: I can submit the refund for you, but no refunds will be processed until the facility opens. Unfortunately there isnt anything going out at this time. This person also told me: If you didnt want to continue with your training upon reopening we can issue a refund for the sessions, but I do want to advise that no refunds are being processed until the facility reopens.I have been told a refund WOULD be processed pending reopening. While I was annoyed that a global corporate gym was not able to process a credit card refund from an office not inside my clubs location, and that it would only be happening pending reopening of said location, I was patient, and waited for what was then an indefinite amount of time for my refund.As soon as the go ahead was given to reopen in the city of Long Beach in March, Golds Gym promptly did so. I then reached out to FINALLY inquire about my refund on March 12th, -- its now been over ONE YEAR since I purchased the sessions. I was informed this would be sent to corporate for approval and processing. After checking in a couple times to see what the progress was, I received a phone call on April 13th, letting me know that corporate has denied my request for a refund, stating they were unable to process it because it does not meet the following 2 pieces of criteria -- 1. I did not move over 25 miles from the gyms location and 2. I did not sustain an injury rendering me incapable to exercise, permanently.While these terms would be fairly reasonable during any other time, it is not in the slightest during a global pandemic where EVERYTHING IS FLUID AND COMPLETELY UNPREDICTABLE, this is utterly unacceptable.Golds, you lost a member for life, and I will never refer another person here. Its a shame since the staff is SO lovely. JUST GIVE ME MY MONEY BACK.

This place is bad. Do t go to it. People are pushing to upscale you

Avoid at all costs. Used to be a good gym, sad what management has done to the club.

Could use a facelift but convenient location for a mostly full gym

Horrible gym. Old equipment. Im talking, REALLY old equipment!!

Pretty good gym.

Good place to work out

Love this gym but this morning I got thru away because I wasnt wearing gloves. I have no problem in wearing gloves but its that I walked in and then they told me I need to wear gloves. As I walk in. Of course Im not wearing any gloves and I dont have any gloves on me.Theyre not providing or selling gloves at all. So apparently no work out for me today. If theyre not going let the members know of a new party change they should provide gloves to those members that are not aware of this.

Good gym, few people, dont have to wait for using the machines, almost only Iron. Classic gym good price and payment methods

Its hard to cancel your canc your membership with them. The will cont to take money out your acct

I would give it ZERO STARS IF I COULDI went in for a 3 day trial decided I didnt like this location and it wasnt the gym for me and a month later they charged me! I didnt sign any paperwork or choose a plan! Absolutely ridiculous

Nice Clean Gym

Best welcoming staff at the front desk and from the cleaning crew. Their big smiles and positive energy make you feel happy.Exceptionally clean gym and great cardio machinesAfter 21 years being a member at Golds gym Venice, I am surprised to love this gym for the last 3 months since I moved here.I hope the ownership change will keep it this way.

Not too happy with this place. I called because I get silver sneakers membership through Medicare, no Im not a senior as there other ways you get this, and I was in a hurry but was right there with a little time to kill. The guy said come in, itll take 4 to ten minutes, now was a good time to come in. I knew the 4 was a joke obviously and I told him Im right down the street just a couple blocks away, Ill be in right now. I got there, told the reception girl that I just called and spoke who a guy who said.... Etc etc blah blah (told her what happened). She had me fill out some waiver she called it on the computer, I didnt see any waiver though, but could have missed it, and just asked me for address phone number email personal info. She said have a seat and someone will be with you. I sat, and sat, and sat.. and went back to to remind her what the guy told me and that he said now was a good time, etc etc. She said have a seat...I sat and sat and sat some more... Keep in mind he knew I was literally a couple blocks away and was coming right now and said up to ten minutes... And sat and sat and as the reception girl talked and talked and talked to multiple employees, some of which was personal, the rest I couldnt hear, I sat waiting and waiting. Now my time was almost up, actually it was way over the time I had which is why I told the guy initially that I did not have a lot of time and had another appt, was now good time, I even told both it was for silver sneakers membership ... And that perhaps was my mistake! Thats a free for me membership so probably insurance low balled them in what they would pay them so I was essentially little$$so who gives a ***k, just let me rot, maybe Ill leave on my own they probably thought, and so I did. Besides, now Im going to be late for my next appointment.... I will not be going there ever again and recommending to anyone who will listen that they not go there either but should go to one of the many say nicer gyms with staff that is so much nicer, way faster, way more professional, way more accommodating, with way more amenities and a ton more to offer ANY kind of membership.

I really enjoy this gym, the staff are super friendly and helpful and they have great instructors for their exercise classes. The have a nice selection of work out equipment and a ton of weight machines. Its a very clean facility. The womens locker room is great as it has a dressing and make up station with plenty of mirrors and outlets for hair tools. They also have hair dryers, really nice showers, and a steam room.Also its not super busy in the morning or afternoon so you dont have to wait around to use the machines.

Great membership prices

Gym is ok for a gym. Really hot and humid and the ceilings look like they’re falling apart. They recently reopened after covid without notifying members they were opening and resuming service/billing. Wasn’t until I was charged $510 out of the blue did I realize they were open. When contacting the Managment for a refund for the gym since my trainer was laid off, the fact that covid is going on and not feeling safe, plus not being able to afford paying $510 a month right now due to employment issues, they stated they couldn’t issue a refund. Put your money else where, trust me this gym ain’t it. Half their staff was laid off as well because they wanted them to sign a new employment contract without giving them a chance to review it. Should tell you enough about the decision to join this gym.

It was good and I’m from out of town so keep that in mind. The staff are amazing and so kind ❤️❤️. They have a good variety of equipment, However I will say the place isn’t kept very clean at all.

Nice gym, old school iron weights! Lot of amenities. Steam sauna and dry saunaI! I was greeted and assisted by Shay Hicks. He was amazing and very courteous. Thank you

Its got the biggest selection of machines Ive experienced at a gym. Its a little old so be careful when moving weights sometimes theres a little rust but apart from that the gym is great

This is a good gym! The classes are fun and theres a great variety. Everyone was very encouraging when I was starting out.Ive never had problems with getting a cardio machine. There were a couple of times when I had to wait for a weight machine, but then I just did another part of my workout. The small room with the mats downstairs is really ideal for stretching.Though I never used the showers, the locker rooms were always clean.Theres a lot of competition for gyms in this particular area, but with the cost of membership and the class offerings, this is a good place to get your workout in.

A great value gym with a huge floor of weights, machines, and cardio equipment. It says something about the crowd that there are something like six squat racks and on occasion all of them are full! The crowd is pretty friendly, willing to lend a hand for a spot if needed. The space feels a little dinged up in places, but for the most part it feels relaxed.

This is my spot

Cameras dont work, the manager never have answers, if someone is run to the ER from there, they dont call the emergency number on file, very interesting dynamic when you try to close or put a membership on hold, the are not really supporting existing clients.

I love this gym, because they have a steam room in the womens locker room.

I go here. Clean. Not crowded ( at the moment ), must wear gloves and a mask.

I enjoy going to the downtown Gold s gym. People tend to mind their own business and the staff is helpful and friendly. A good place to burn off holiday calories.

I’ve been going here since September. Three days ago I decided to try the new 24hour Fitness that just opened at the World Trade Center, since everybody were talking about how new and cool it is. New is not always better, yes Golds Gym is kinda falling apart and it needs renovation, but for me personally it’s much better, I didn’t find anything new in 24hour fitness to made me trade it! I would say more, if Golds Gym will do some changes, I think more people will come back.

Great gym. Staff is very friendly and helpful, prices are fair. Gym could use more accommodations like a basketball court or racquetball but as far as straight weight lifting this gym is cool

Im an old school work out guy and like a great gym but this place is really a dump. The equipment was in poor shape and the staff all have a blank non engaged attitude. The locker room had such a foul odor. This place is not the golds gym of the epic years of glory. The manager was a totally unhelpful and kind of dick. I was under the impression that he was a total homophobic tool.

It a great place to workout.

A awesome gym. Great people work out there and very nice staff. Equipment is perfect.👍

Its a really good gym. Alot of room and equipment. All in good condition. Everything you need, free weights and machines. I joined for over a week while working in the area. Staff are very helpful and members are friendly.Nice to see a mixed gym that didnt feel intimidating to beginners, full of all shapes, sizes and ages getting healthy.

This is my second week going to this Gym. I signed up because I am trying to change my life style. Key word TRYING! Its not easy, but we all have to start somewhere and also because this gym is within walking distance from my house. When you sign up, they give you a free session with a trainer, so my niece and I signed up for our free session, tandem. After our little session with the trainer, Gerald, he went through all the pricing and i told him I was unable to purchase any of the packets. He took that as I do not care enough about myself to spend $600 to $900 dollars for 12 sessions or so. He kept going on and on and on to my niece and I on how we would be dropping out of the gym in a few months because we cant do anything in the gym without the help of an expert. He also decided it was a good idea to throw in that my niece and I are on the verge of becoming diabetics. All of this and sum was said to us so we can try and purchase a plan with them. Thank you Gerald Captain obvious for your medical diagnosis on letting my niece and I know that we are becoming diabetics. Like i said, we all have to start somewhere. At least we are not sitting our fat asses down on a couch doing nothing! So fkn Rude! I will continue to go to the gym because its still the closest to my home and because I dont give up that easily. But some people need to take a crash course in customer service!

Great vibes, I always enjoy my workouts and the classes go by real quick, the staff is very nice as well. Fun environment overall.

Best place to go in long beach has every bit of equipment you need and more... Lot of squat rack s and benches great place

I walked in with a chip on my shoulder fully expecting to be treated like a number. As time went on my perception changed. This is a place for serious fitness. There is a lot of grunting, sweating and efforts being made here. If you want to soak in a hot tub go to another gym. If you want transformation and a safe place to test your limits, this is the gym to do it in. Great people, good music, knowledgeable staff, plenty of equipment, variety of fitness classes and Saturday boot camp is a great way to start off a weekend.Need help navigating the road to the new you? Get a trainer!I’ve been working with Robert Gutierrez almost a year now. I’ve already surpassed my fitness expectations and I’m reaching higher than I previously imagined possible. Robert provides top notch professionalism. He’s results oriented, solution focused and maintains his commitments. His clients range from obese, injured, handicapped, elderly, ex-military and the list goes on. Whatever your fitness level he’ll adjust his techniques to suit your individual needs. I’ve heard it said time and time again “but I can’t afford a trainer” Let’s get honest with ourselves and review the past few months of bank statements. Starbucks? Eating out? Movies, popcorn, soda? Pedicures? Take the time to re-access the needs of your old life so that you can invest in your new one. Hiring Robert has been a lucrative investment for me I’ve lost 50 pounds, I feel happier, I am healthier and I sleep better. Now is the time and if you’re serious this is the place to begin.

Love it just became a member of the silver sneakers come on in you will not be disappointed

Great staff, good equipment, lots of squat racks. Small, so facilities are limited. Kayla is one of the best trainers Ive met anywhere. Go sign up with Alex!

After 24 hour on Ocean shut down on 12/1, we ventured into the unknown that is Golds Gym on Pine. We were both very impressed! 6 squat racks?!?! Whaaaa???! Bellflower 24 only has 3 and they are always occupied. Golds was all around better in almost every way. The only thing that could have made it better was a pool. But thats it really. Way more, better quality equipment with original round weight plates! Even during prime time no wait for anything. No Bros trying to impress people either. I love it!

I have no complaint about the facility. However, the black guy whos name is Otis... is he really a trainer?If you read this, FFS man. Rather than sitting down on the seated calf raise or just standing there looking at your phone, at least teach your clients the proper form of the exercises you tell them to do.You will have these bigger guys trying to intimidate you but just focus on yourself. These guys are a joke compared to bodybuilders in Venice.

Crap. Gyms nice its the people that are jerks.. Went to see prices before signing up and lady was so rude ugh never coming back

Friendly staff. Here from out of town and the people at the front desk are great. Equipment wise there’s everything I need for a workout. Pretty cool they have straight and EZ-curl bars from 5-110ish at 5 lb intervals. Cleanly as well.

I joined this gym back in December of 2018. Its within walking distance of my house and they offer childcare with a small additional fee. The gym its self is good and the staff members are very friendly. However my complaint is with the childcare facility. My son is 18 months old and was recently bullied and hurt by another child while in their care. Im happy I decided to cut my workout short that day to go check on my little one because just as soon as I did was when I witnessed a little boy viciously push my baby to the ground and the daycare provider claims to have saw NOTHING when I brought it to her attention. I made it my business to address the parent of that child who assaulted my son and the mother dismissed me and was very unremorseful which only made matters worse. My son was the only AFRICAN AMERICAN child who attended their childcare facility on a regular basis which leads me to believe that was the reason why he was singled out to be bullied and attacked. There were other children in their care and none of them where harmed. I was even told by other NON-BLACK parents that their children have NEVER had any problems which proves my point. My son being the only brown skin child puts an automatic target on his head. What disgusted me the most is that staff members didnt even bother to make the mother of that child apologize to me or my son. Everyone made excuses for her child who assulted my son and not once was an apology enforced from either the parent or the staff which is very sad. I cancelled my memebership because I dont feel comfortable leaving my son in their care anymore. Theres a difference between children being children and children demonstrating HATEFUL and ABUSIVE behavior that was obviously learned within their household. The misguided anger and hostility that boy had towards my baby was UNCALLED for! My son is an infant at heart and didnt even try to fight back when attacked because hes not use to that type of behavior. If you want to go to this gym for a good workout? Go for it!👍 but I strongly suggest if youre BLACK please DO NOT LEAVE YOURE CHILD IN THEIR CARE unless your little one is old enough to TALK and tell you whats going on and is capable of defending themselves.Have a Blessed Day.

Great friendly environment. The equipment is a little old fashioned and I feel it gets pretty hot in there at times but the classes are worth being a part of this gym.

I caught bedbugs from this gym! I put my face towel down on the floor to stand on to dry my feet. I arrived home and opened the towel to see several dead bedbugs attached. I was severely bitten in bed many nights before this. I had to wash all of my clothes and bed sheets in hot water. Also, the equipment is very old and the mens locker room smells like a toilet. Cancelled my membership...

Reasonable equipment and price downtown on Pine

A good enough gym. Most of the staff is pretty friendly. Some are apathetic. The place is usually packed after 6. Theres minimal parking. The location was the selling point for us. Its very convenient if you live in downtown Long Beach. I have the typical gym complaint about customer service with cancellation. Dont do the autopay. The manager and the customer service 800 number wont help either. Billing issues are the customers fault.

The bad:This is a VERY tired facility. Equipment is very old, worn and dirty.The good:Its a huge facility with plenty of space and many many types of equipment.I found the front desk people very nice!My work outs are free weight mainly and i dont need tons of fancy weird things, so this gym is ideal for me.I used it when traveling on business and staying in local hotel, the even offer a discount. 10$Overall Good+

Very faboulos gym. Visited friday from Italy and loved it . Staff was very freindly, Alex was very helpful and generous. I love the equipment and the people . Will be coming back next year.

I am in love with this gym. The staff is friendly. They have plenty of equipment. It is clean and parking across the steeet is free for the first 2 hours.

Love this gym, has a great vibe!

Bathrooms always smell like urine and its usually pretty full. Not a bad gym, just a little dirty... Its also a cell service black hole and the Wi-Fi isnt that great so Pandora cuts out in certain spots down stairs which is pretty annoying..

Cool staff and well maintained equiptment

Best gym in LA nothing but solid growth or if your looking to slim down brand new machines just put the cherry on top.

Cool friendly staff. Never over crowded and the walk there is nice

This is a serious gym, if you are not here to work out, this is not the gym for you. Yes, you know what Im talking about, for those who go to the gym to make a show, no one will notice or care, in fact you are in the way of our workout. Yes theres no pool, jacuzzi, etc. but thats not what a gym is for.Group classes are good, Trainers range from very good, to they should not be training anyone at all...PERIOD.The only flaw in this gym is the manager Jose, he is terribly unprofessional. Instead of working on customer service for the populace, hes more concerned on being buddy buddy to a few favorites. He is notorious for charge first, ask later. So if you buy a training plan, make sure hes not the one who will handle it.

Great gym with all equipment needed to get in shape, I recommend the boot camp to kick your butt into shape!

My favorite place to be in its like home away from home

The staff is great and they motivate you!

They are up grading ill miss the Old weights. But i love golds

Friendly environment, polite staff, not to crowded but very well known, good place over all to go what you go for

I liked this place but they need to put cameras in the front because I got my bike stolen right in front of the is place

I love to work out here and all of the employees are nice and the equipment is amazing

Its a quality gym. The only bad part of this gym are a few of the other customers. Too many meatheads throwing equipment. This of course leads to broken equipment but it seems like the staff is quick to repair. Rarely does anything go more than a few days out of order.

Love the ambience .thats pretty much what I pay for

Its my local gym clean well staffed fully equipped

VIbes are right they are always willing to help. Im a transgender male and at first i thought id been here so many years.. I hope things go well when i come out. Omg they are so opening and welcoming. Many of the boys there show me hella love!! Thanks you guys. Longbeach goldsgym IS DOPE. THERE EQUIPMENT IS UPGRADING I DONT MIND. THANK YOU FOR BEING APART of my authentic self

They have good eye candy um let me tell your girl that dies are hot

GREAT gym, GREAT environment, GREAT people, GREAT appreciation, thank you very much for what you do. Keep up the GREAT work...

Good gym to be. You can find all type of equipment

For serious fitness only. Love this gym and the people working there

Half the time the treadmills dont work, staff is barely friendly and there are no bells and whistles. If you want a gym thats close to downtown theres planet fitness right next to it and is cheaper.

Definitely need to get back to work on this front...

This place is falling apart. I was informed of the sewage/plumbing problem, the light fixtures are in need of repair (some are falling down or just arent safely covered), most members dont bother following rules regarding proper etiquette (put your weights away, wipe down machines after use, no chalk).

This place is now amazing!! Everything is up to date and the machines are greatt!!! I give it 5 stars!!! If you choose a gym make shure its goldsgym! And they have many clases to chooze from, mostly they are free!

Horrible. Stupid business just charged me $40 dollars 3 months after I cancelled. And Im pretty damn sure I wont get that money back when I go claim it tomorrow.

Great Equipment and one of the Best Gyms. 👍🏼

I used to work out at the one in Redondo Beach and now Im really enjoying this one in Long Beach

Has all that you need to get a workout .

Enjoyed working out better place in LB

THATS MY GYM. I GO THERE 2 TIMES A WEEK. (GOLD GYM at PINE AVENUE)

Easy access, lots of equipment, friendly staff .

What a gross gym, no towel service?

The manager was one of the worst gym manager I have ever seen every thing was bent, dirty, and I had a terrible attitude, shame just one day before Christmas and she messed every one in my family’s day . With her snarky comments!!!!!!!

Good gym, prices, variety of machines and stations.
