I love my gym. Everyone is happy and welcoming. Lots of classes and gym equipment to utilize and very central and easy to access. Very happy I joined here

This is a perfect Ballard gym. Lots of machines that are almost always free. Good set of free weights. Lots of classes.
They could definitely improve things by replacing a few unused pieces of equipment. But I haven't had a hard time getting access to the equipment I need.

There are good gyms that will have the right equipment for a quality workout but then great gyms take it a step further with amazing employees and services. This is a great gym. I visited from out of town and already felt like family my first visit there. They know when to let you get your space to lock in and work-out but also know how to take care of you in ways that are unseen. As people started walking the gym I noticed the front desk employees say hello or call them out by name to greet them. It is the little things that count. The equipment is well clean and provides a space for all types of workouts. HIIT training, Power-lifting, people who prefer classes, somebody who just wants to go and maintain a healthy lifestyle, and all the above. Highly recommend. Joining is quick and easy, and parking options are available as well.

I've been a member here for several years. The club has a lot of variety in terms of classes, free weights and exercise bikes, treadmills and eliptical trainers. Free parking, reasonable rates and a nice staff is why I'm still a member.

Fantastic neighborhood gym. I went to BHC for 2 years while I lived in Ballard. The facilities are clean, the members are normal/neighborhood folks, and the staff always seems genuinely happy to be there. Monthly rate is an excellent value for what you get and there's no BS fees. Wish I lived closer to keep my membership up!

A little cramped, but utilitarian. Good price, all things considered.

Bait and switch.

I specifically purchased a week pass form this gym because it was the only local gym open 24 hours a day. Turns out this is not the case for non renewing members which is not stated in any of the information found online. I didn't have an issue staying after the front desk closed until today when "Cassy", who reports to "Pat", threw me out in the middle of my work out. At $25 dollars a week (over 50% of the monthly rate) I would seriously consider finding a different gym.

This is either complete incompetence or a calculated attempt to lure people to the gym. Either update your website to provide an accurate description of your policies or honor what you advertise.

Best and most peaceful atmosphere in town -- very much a come-as-you-are environment. I am not classes-oriented and I am very happy with the experience here; my class-taking friends tell me they have lots of selection and a really good experience, so I guess it has something (except swimming) for everyone!

The Ballard health club is a cozy underground gym, it has free weights, as well as nautilus equipment, there is plenty of cardio machines to choose from. This gym does not have initiation fees it's simple membership you can pay for just the day or you can get a full membership just by signing up for monthly auto pay. They have special access for full members that allows you to access the gym 24 hours a day but you'll be issued a back entrance key for access after regular business hours.

I am giving Ballard Health Club all five stars. It is by no means the most fancy, brand new establishment in the land. But it is in a great location, the people who work there are helpful and encouraging, I never have to wait for a machine, the bathrooms are bright and clean, there is a sauna, you get a cool parking sticker and there are studio rooms. It is a great gym and the price is pretty good.

Been a member here for almost 2 years. It's a small gym, and sometimes during the rush hours it's crowded enough where not all of the equipment is available. However, they are currently 24hrs (which is awesome for me) and going during non-peak hours is a great experience. Love the month-to-month pricing, overall a great experience.

Been a member here for three years and have always experienced great service. The facilities are always kept clean, the variety of classes are good and fun, and membership is pretty hassle free (if you need to suspend or quit). All in all, a ballard staple!

Relaxed gym with a lot of amenities, good classes and very reasonable rates.
No muscle head vibe here. Crowd represents Ballard well. Older folks and service industry workers during day, diverse (as Ballard gets) in the eve.
They make everything very accessible to all.
You can drop in for $10 or $12 for a class.
Members can get a fob for 24 hour access.

I love this gym. It's got old school free weights, weight and cardio machines and a huge variety of classes. My only concern is that it seems like everyone else is beginning to discover how great a gym it really is. It's busy but not intolerable after work and nice and quiet during the other times of the day.

I have been a member for two years. The atmosphere is cozy, friendly and they offer plenty of yoga classes that easily fit into my busy schedule.

Great little gym, a lot packed into a small space. If your workout involves anything like walking Lunges or burpees, best to not go at prime time since there isn't really any space to spare.

Older equipment but super friendly staff. Been going there for 2 years now. Love it
