Review of Golds Gym of Bryan

3 years ago

Pros

Pros
-Lots of lifting equipment to use. With the exception of the squat racks, I don't have to wait to use equipment, even during the busy evening times. This is also true for the cardio equipment.
/Group Classes are never crowded. The instructors are experienced and knowledgeable.
-Ample parking.
-Child care is provided.
-Responsive customer service.
-Reasonable price (a&m employees will receive a discount)
- women's locker room is always clean.

Cons
-Broken Equipment takes a long time to be repaired. (Ex: there are only 2 stairmasters and one has been broken for at least a month).
-There are lighting issues.
-There is no AC in the women's locker room. They have some bootlegged vent/fan system set up currently.
-It is very hot and humid in the gym during the summer. It's as if they don't turn on the AC or keep the air at 80+ degrees.
-The TVs often have connection issues. (I blame suddenlink, the cable provider. They are horrible and one of the only cable providers in the area).
-There is limited towel service. I believe you can pay for a certain amount of towels per month, but I haven't seen anyone "check out" towels.

-Not so much a con as a pet peeve. The gym opens at 8am on the weekends. I wish it would open at least at 7am.
