Gold’s Gym 290 East 4th Street, Long Beach, CA 90802

"Dirty, broken, and neglected. NOT built to be anything other than TEMPORARY. I tried so hard to give this place a chance, but they clearly don’t care about the quality of the space they provide. I get that construction sometimes takes longer than expected. But I joined this gym a year ago with the promise that the new location would be ready in 4-6 months. This location is NOT sustainable and not maintained. The staff turns off the back lights at 9:40 PM (sometimes 9:30), despite still having numerous guests on the treadmills - which is extremely rude and also very hazardous, I’m honestly surprised I haven’t rolled an ankle. There are much better ways to get guests out of a closing gym. The space is not ventilated for large groups of sweating people, there’s no ac or fresh air and the glass walls literally steam up. The machines have not been calibrated since they’ve been installed, a 5.0 pace on one treadmill is completely different on another. The weight machines are worn down and lacking weight indicators. The self-clean supplies are empty 9/10 times, and while I’ve seen employees wipe down equipment at the end of the night there’s really no way to wipe it down yourself. On top of that I’ve seen actual boogers on the glass walls and baby roaches on the machines. I honestly wish I was exaggerating, I really wanted to give this place a good review. The only good thing about this place was the staff member named Connery - he was friendly and seemed to really care about the gym. But since it’s been months since I’ve seen him around, I no longer have a reason to hesitate posting this review."

"The gym is great but the staff is extremely rude, they give you attitude when you ask for help and are very condescending. Had to cancel my membership, luckily they gave me a refund at least."

"New to this gym. I have been there a handful of times and have yet to see anyone wipe down the equipment when they are done using it. So disgusting! There are no showers, and it seems like the a/c is never on."

"The staff was great... even though i am just a guest of my cousin. They greeted with a smile and welcomed me cheefully. Equipment was numerous and accomodated a lot of people. It was a nice and clean place to workout."

"Very disappointed that after coming for more than 3 years and bringing new people, paying the same every month this gym always have more things that doesn’t work than things that do work. I know the are moving to pike but even though they still charging every month on time."
