Gold’s Gym University Market Place

The parking lot in the basement, especially this spot has no “do not back in” sign although the spot next to it has it. Don’t back in on that spot. The yellow frame is not visible on the rear mirror nor the camera when you back up. That’s the bad part about this gym. Gym itself is good though. But there goes my 800 dollars.

The gym staff and equipment are good to great, however I've been a member since Jan 8th and have gone 3 times a week since then and the washrooms, sinks and showers have been out of order the entire time with no timeline of getting them fixed. The locker rooms are barely adequate. In one section of the men's change room people in the free weight section can see clear into the lockers/ changing area. I've asked about the showers 3 or 4 times and nobody ever can give a clear answer.

Id like to write this review specifically for Mish, one of the staff I have had the pleasure of knowing for about a year since I started working out at Golds. Mish is not just the friendliest, but also the most attentive. I spoke to him on several occasions about issues I find with the gym and he not only listened to me with proper attention but he also guided me on ways on how can make my concerns heard. He also gave me some awesome workout tips that have helped me on my journey of self improvement!nnOverall, although Golds is rather subpar gym with dated, old and broken equipment, it is run by individuals the like of Mish who are friendly, sociable and great at their jobs.

Great community, especially for UBC students. It's great how they always have something going on in the club, especially The Body Energy free testers.

I moved to Vancouver while the Covid-19 lockdown was ongoing from Ontario. I wanted to get back to the gym ASAP. Gold's BC offered me a good deal in May for multi-access across all Gold's Gyms in BC, which would activate once the gyms were allowed to reopen. I first used the West Broadway facility before the UBC location reopened. The UBC location is great. It has everything I need. The staff are friendly. Not hard to register a spot right now you need to make a reservation to workout, since the location isn't crowded. I think the company is doing pretty good considering the circumstances.
