Westcoast Health & Fitness

Response to terrichadney: For the record: I was leaving the gym at the same time you were and since I seldom see you or Jay I wanted to voice my concerns over the condition of the equipment. Since I'm a current 15 year member (never missing a payment) I thought you might be concerned and understanding. Instead you were just the opposite, offering up excuses and stating that members exaggerate how long equipment is out of service. You continued walking to your car the entire time and since I was parked three cars down from yours I walked along. I stand by all of what I've said. I usually put up with alot before I complain. I've complained maybe 3 times to Jay about equipment issues and once about his childish and condescending letter to the club members when you had the fire in the sauna. I've complained 3 or 4 times to front desk personnel about the same equipment issues that have fallen on deaf ears. What you perceive as an angry, negative, disgruntled and constantly complaining member is really anything but. Not only am I speaking for myself but for a vast majority of long standing members. Grow up! Take responsiblity and be professional. As a member I appreciate your business being here but I do expect a good product in return. more

As the owner of West Coast Fitness I try to treat all of our members with understanding and kindness. The previous poster has been a challenge. Over the years my staff and I have been overwelmed by his constant negativity. Just before he posted, he followed me to my car complaining the entire way, then stood in my car door to continue his speech. Although he is extremly negative we understand that everyone needs a place to exercise. more

Been going here for over a year and it is the best club I've been too. I like it better than the corporate or franchise clubs. There is just a comfortable feel here but you can also get serious about your training if you want to. Pros: Friendly and knowledgable staff Cons: location more

I have been going to West Coast on Lombard for over a year now, and it hasn't let me down. Convenient and comfortable, this is not your generic meat market fitness club. It feels perfectly Portlandish, and the yoga and cycling classes are a great addition to a very reasonably priced membership. Pros: early & late hours, sauna, ample parking, student discount, yoga Cons: wish they would bring back Pilates!!, current construction more

I have worked out at West Coast Heath and Fitness for over 3 years and I will continue to be a member as long as I live in the North Portland or Alberta areas. This is the best gym I have been to in regards to atmosphere, affordability and results. Pros: Everything more

This gym is great if you're not into the whole shallow gym scene. It's low-key and the staff is top notch! It really has a great neighborhood vibe and offers great child care as well. Pros: everything Cons: nothing more

From the staff to the members a warm welcome is what is recieved. Most members greet each other by name. Staff are friendly and eager to assist. I've enjoyed many great times, from senior potlucks, to halloween party for the kids. Their staff thinks of everything. Classes are setup with everyone in mind from simple to advanced, all being quit enjoyable. Its easy to see that it is family owned and operated. I enjoy being there. Pros: friendly staff, open 365 days a year, child care more
