The gym is okay but the Wifi is broken. You get the error message "Couldn't get IP address"

Gold's gym employee lied about the contract. Read the fine print! Do not trust people at this gym. I vocally confirmed that I was getting a month to month contract. They signed me up for a 12 month contract.

I called them to see how much a membership is. They "can't talk about prices over the phone", which I thought was strange. How do I know I'd even be interested if you can't tell me how much it is? I'm not going to travel to the gym to find out if it's too expensive.

Googling them made me find all these horrible reviews. Dodged that bullet!

Scam Alert: it's nearly impossible to cancel your membership here.

Gym is ok albeit the outrdoor area is a joke and there is a 1$ fee per towel and many hidden fees in the contract including a cancellation fee and others. Also, ABC finaincals which runs this gym is a nightmare. They keep calling you with unsolicited issues and bully you on the phone!

Adequate. Gold's Gym South Boston has room to lift weights, including space for free weights, squat racks, and bench presses, as well as adequate parking, things Planet Fitness lacks, but it could be so much better. Snow removal in the parking lot is second-rate, and a broken down van with two flat tires has been occupying one of the best parking spots for months. The bathrooms are fetid, the drinking fountain, in pieces. Noxious music blares -- intermittently (the satellite connection is erratic). Inside the gym, space is poorly used and badly maintained, underheated in the winter and overly hot in the summer. Walls have holes in them, mirrors are cracked or missing, and they seem to have trouble keeping staff. Savin Hill is up and coming, hopefully someday a better gym will come to the neighborhood, meantime, logic and traffic still make this rundown gym the only choice if you live closeby, unfortunately.

I've loved this gym! They are so friendly and welcoming and the gear is all up-to-date and nice. Vivian's classes are particularly fantastic! Highly recommend if you're living in Dorchester or Southie.

I have nothing except positive experiences at this gym. I don't understand others complaints.
I had a great experience with Dan as well. Very upfront and honest about everything. Very professional and honest.
I come at an early time, so getting on equipment is never a problem for me.
The only issue I do have is the aged equipment. The gym does have everything you need, however it seems like owners need to update certain things.
The friendly staff and management supersedes and negativity that may be said.

Just the absolute worst.
I just called to ask them to confirm that my cancellation had gone through (which simply requires them searching my name on the computer and looking at my file, and I've personally witnessed them perform this very simple task before) and was told, before I even finished my question, that I had to call back later and ask to speak with a manager.
I've received this dismissive type of answer and treatment EVERY time I've called to ask a question and even in person.

I'm unfortunately going to "one-up" people here. After canceling my account in July, on that same day, the club FORGED a new Membership Agreement, signed it (no where near my signature), put in the terms they would like to see, and I've just caught it now. OH, and 'somehow', after calling ABC Financial, another member of the club had been authorized on my account, so I was paying their fees too. I've emailed the General Manager (Julie O'Connell jocgolds@yahoo dot com) and heard nothing back. This is my credit card company's hands now. I don't even want to go in there.

Robbed me blind, DO NOT GO HERE. My girlfriend and I both signed up at the same time but were never told our contracts were completely different from each other. She was able to easily cancel once we moved back to Connecticut and now I'm stuck paying a $100 cancellation fee while trying to get together a laundry list of paper work to send in for proof of address. Gym is tiny, dirty, and always packed not worth the 40 bucks a month. The horror story's about golds gym are true but I didn't listen.

Do not sign up. Plenty of better, far more worth your dollar gyms in the area. Was a member for several years because I love the old school gym feel of golds gyms, but this is a joke and the place got progressively worse. Dirty locker rooms, grimy sauna, the woman who works the front desk most days is consistently unpleasant as many others here have mentioned, they close at 6PM on Saturday and Sunday (prime time for a busy person during the week looking to unwind on a weekend night), and you literally have to hand-write a letter and send it to a P.O. box in order to cancel your membership. Absolute scam and they have no clue how to please their members / customers. Customer service is backwards at this place.

a large, solid, authentic southie style gym. choice to work out independently or with a larger crowd depending on what time you go. the front desk help is terrific and always helpful. the owner is super cool and will help you with anything. i definitely recommend for a good and healthy exercise experience.

These people took down my debit card number without ever meeting me in person then charged me $200. Then, after calling several times and being put on hold lines for hour, they said "it was a mistake" and the only way I could get it back was to fill out a refund form with them. They said it would take TWO weeks for me to get my money back. DO NOT GO ANYWHERE NEAR THIS GYM
