The most filthy gym I've ever been too. staff stands around. Its not often you see staff cleaning…read more The equipment is disgusting. They need to do better. Every area is dirty. It doesn't matter if you go to the free weights or the machines, they are all covered in thick layers of dust. I took a picture while I was there of how nasty it truly is. If I can upload it, I will. there's absolutely no reason a gym should be this dirty!

I am new to the area and I am looking for a gym. After several times of working out in the mornings…read moreI am disappointed in seeing the amount of little kids allowed to follow their parents as they workout, often sitting on equipment and preventing members to access the equipment. First, this is a big safety issue for the kid as well as members. There is a kids club where parents can take their kids into while they workout. Why does the staff allow these parents to let their kids follow them around? This is an accident waiting to happen. I observed many elderly people walking the track, as well as working out. One day something is going to happen either to a kid or a member, and there will be a huge lawsuit. I know if it happened to me I would sue. Golds staff and owner....Take NOT, and do something about this issue. I won't be joining this gym.

Emily the manager is a very rude and ignorant person. This facility is moderatemoderate at best. I cancel this membership one month before the pandemic hit in person and I am still getting charged for a membership I never use. What a horrible place.

I cannot see this location on the Y App because apparently they have their own app which btw is…read moreugly. The facility is old & sooooo outdated. The elevator when I went the first time to tour it was not working & i needed it. Sucks because if thats not working you cannot go in unless you climb stairs. Childcare honestly sucks. There is no such thing as ratios (adult to # of kids by age). The kids are all mixed no matter the age. If anything the ones that are kinda separated from the rest but in the same open room are the infants & that is only by a little playpen. I couldn't even work out comfortably just thinking that a toddler could throw a toy in there & potentially hit my baby because again it's a little play pen & everyone is in the same room. Childcare works by reservations only. To make a reservation you have to call. Fridays & Saturdays don't have night childcare. Sundays no childcare at all. I was really looking forward to this Y mainly because its the closest one to me but I wont be able to work out how I would like too. Mainly because of childcare. & it sucks because the whole reason i even got a membership was because they offered childcare. Maybe if it was just me I could possibly look past the overall outdated building but im still at meh!

I have had a gym membership most of my adult life in NY, SC and NC and I find our Y in Albemarle to…read morebe one of the cleanest and friendliest I've ever belonged to. One distinguishing characteristic is the members are all conscientious about cleaning the equipment after each use; I'd reluctantly cancelled my membership at an area competing gym because the members were really not hygienic about sharing the equipment no matter how many signs management posted. There are 2 rooms with many strength training and aerobic equipment. The lockers rooms are spacious and spotless and both the staff and the members are very friendly and helpful. Also, members of all ages and degrees of fitness work out together respecting each person's personal space. They have both a warm and cool pool with plenty of time for free swim and many class offerings as well. The 2 negative views posted are unusual occurrences and certainly not the norm for this facility.
