This has been my home gym since COVID started. Staff and other gym-goers are friendly; I have no complaints. Love working out here.

the gym is extremely crowded during times after working hours on weekdays. Since 24 fitness closed across the street, they have gotten some of their patrons, me being on of them. It is extremely off putting that they have not expanded hours back to pre covid hours. Also the cycling equipment is not being maintained well.

Buyer beware. I signed up for this gym online in July. Never got a membership activation email. Never got any notice that my payment went through. Called the location several times and ended up having to go, in person, to wait, while a member of staff emerged from an office where it was apparent they'd been ignoring the front desk. That should have been the one and only red flag.The second warning came when I was charged for a full first month after paying the pro-rated rate.The final straw came today, when after 5 months of going to this gym, I was approached by a member of staff. I was informed that I had signed up for the wrong gym and was going to need to re-initiate my membership at a higher rate that what I am currently paying.Despite the fact that I've been in this gym dozens of times, logged in at the front desk countless times, I've never been told I was going to the wrong gym. The first time I was told was after the rate had already increased and could not be set at a lower rate.While the rate increase is negligible, the practice is at the very least suspect.

The Gym is old and could use some upgrades.How ever the staff is great. Especially the managers. They all work hard to keep the place clean and working. The location is great and the atmosphere in the gym is good. Also like all the trainers.

Nice well equiped Gold's location, friendly helpfull staff and a good gym culture. Going to be my go to gym here in Austin. I was impressed with the amount of equipment on hand, And the trainers..Went back after a few weeks.. didn't want to go when it was busy, didn't want to feel uncomfortable going back to the gym. It was fine, there are people there in all stages of fitness don't seem judgy at all. Relaxed and comfortable environment.

I’ve been working out at this Gold’s Gym since 2017 when I moved to Austin. While I no longer live close to this location, it is still the Gold’s that I go to daily because, in my opinion, it is the best Gold’s in South Austin. The staff are always really friendly and are happy to strike up a conversation, and the equipment is always clean. This year, they renovated the Kids Club and turned it into a stretching room, which has helped decongest the gym during busy times, as people used to stretch openly on mats around the gym. Even during busy hours, it isn’t terribly difficult to find a way to get a great workout in. 10/10 recommend this location!

I travel a lot for work and I've seen a lot of Gold's Gyms, this is the best one I've been in. Really nice staff, TONS of bench press spots, lots of DL platform/Squat racks, a separate, QUIET room for stretching or core/ab work. Very clean, not terribly crowded (I went at an off time). My only complaint would be not enough plates in the bench press area, I had to go searching.

I’ve been coming to this golds for 10+ years and have always had a wonderful experience. I even worked here for a short time during the pandemic (I’m a healthcare worker and needed a reprieve from the hospital at the time) and the experience was just as great. Friendly staff, wonderful management and very clean environment. The GM Nash is always friendly and easily approachable to the members and staff alike, always a pleasant experience conversing with him. The equipment is always clean (Maria is fantastic) and there are numerous paper towel stations with spray bottles available. The new stretching room is a great addition to the gym as it eases up some of the foot traffic on the workout floor and offers a quieter space to focus. I look forward to keep using this gym as long as I’m living in Austin.
