The Scene – Most Ballys stick to the basics for their design. Televisions broadcast silently above multiple rows of cardio machines; mirrored walls act as the primary decorative components. But thanks to high-energy television ads and low-impact membership premiums, this national fitness chain has steadily attracted a clientele bent on saving money while losing weight or gaining muscle. – – The Workout – Using fairly standard strength-training equipment and/or racks well-stocked with free weights, the best of the trainers here, who are classified at four different…

Best Gym in Downtown Portland!

by JamieKruegger

The downtown Bally's in Portland is a great buy for anyone looking for a gym to join in the area. They offer a ton of group exercise classes during the lunch hour (spin, step, yoga, etc) for those who like to fit in workouts during their work day. Friendly, comfortable atmosphere-- knowledgeable and approachable staff.

Pros: comfortable atmosphere, affordable, very clean, friendly members
Cons: n/a

Best Buy for Downtown PDX Gym Memberships

by jamielynn26

My boyfriend and I joined this gym 6 months ago and love it. Clean equipment, friendly atmosphere and very comfortable environment.

I love how I can go to unlimited group exercise classes-- (yoga and kwando are great!) There are also lot of healthy places to eat nearby for light lunches and dinners after your workouts. Great place to meet new people too.

Pros: Atmosphere, cleanliness, members and staff

following the fine print...

by squarecandice

Well I signed up for a 30 trial for $20, decided I didn't have the money to spend per month...well that doesn't matter to Bally. Now I'm out $150 for three months of gym service that I didn't use and didn't want. The gentleman that signed me up told me not to worry about the "contract", that the info was incorrect, and that he would contact me before it would become a problem. Boy, was I naive. Of course the corporate office won't refund my lost money, AND they conveniently canceled my membership one day after the money was to be drafted out of my account for a third time! There are a lot of nice people that are employees here and that work out at this gym, however when it comes to personal attention with their mistakes...well who knows where the weak link is. Just make sure you read what you are signing up for...or if you don't mind signing three years away to the gym, go for it.
