This Gold's is a pretty good gym..for the price. I just have the cheapest membership, which is all I need. When you join they do snake a few charges on you that you don't expect but everybody who gets your credit card does that nowadays don't they? Basic membership probably comes out to around $170 a year and that's not bad at all.
I've been to this Gym around 40 times in the last couple of months. I've never seen any member nor staff clean the equipment so make sure you wipe down before your set. They do have staff clean the facility, empty trash, fix broken equipment which is the way it should be.
The Gym gets very crowded at times, I think the local football team got a discount to workout there lol. So yeah, on weeknights there's a bunch of high schoolers "working out" their smartphones trying to be cool in front of their friends. Still, when it's super crowded I can usually get my workout in, I just have to be flexible and creative. If the place was empty it'd be really boring so there's always a positive spin to everything.
Almost everybody behaves and they're willing to share equipment. There's no problem with the staff, they are definitely friendly which is a big plus.
Overall, I give this Gym 3 Stars. It's a good gym with a lively atmosphere and you can get your workout in with relative ease. I'd give it a higher rating if they(somebody/anybody) cleaned the equipment and if they didn't sneak all those charges within the first couple of weeks. You just know they'll add some hidden charges at the end too.
