    One of the best gyms in Montreal that I had visited . The gym is in downtown Montreal outside the…read moreMcGill metro station near to promenade cathedral. The gym has 3 floors of heavy equipment that suits everyone's needs. It's ideal for men, women and elders. The gym has trainers available . Ladies had special dance classes . The place has showers to cool off once you are done with your workout . Locker system is provided free of cost to those who come to the gym. The employees who get an hour break in the afternoon can remove the stress by pumping the iron at the gym . It's a ideal location that is accessible to all the transport.

    This gym is currently the absolute worst gym in Montreal. It has gone through numerous ownership…read moreand administration changes, however the current owners are the worst this gym has ever had the misfortune of having. These owners are the same owners of the gym that used to be near Place des Arts, on the other side of the Musique Plus building. If you are familiar with what that used to be, then you know the condition of this gym. What's wrong with it? Everything. They vandalized their own elevator. You get onto the main floor and the younger looking gym flunky is the rudest and most moronic person there. It takes a lot of explanation before he finally seems to understand your statement. Then flat out lies to you. I asked if the gym opens at 6 AM, as is indicated on their Facebook page and their schedule from the last time I was there. They told me the staffer who opens it that early is on vacation. It'll open at 6 in two weeks. Two weeks later, still not open at 6. I ask why, they tell me that the city won't let them open. Wait another two weeks. Come back and still not open at 6 in the morning. Still no refund. A far cry from when this used be open 24 hours every weekday. Windows are nailed shut because "the owner told him to." Sure. The locker rooms are horrendous and filthy. Some faucets don't work. Those that do, have hardly any water pressure. Also, faucets are not secured to the counter. One easily falls over when turning on the tap. Showers are filthy. Toilet smells and looks filthy. Urinal doesn't flush properly and has a constant urine smell emanating from it that you can smell from a few meters away. The locker area itself is filthy and is mopped with a filthy grey mop. You actually see it spreading more filth across the floor than actually cleaning. The equipment is falling apart. A barbell is missing a screw at the end that secures the end to the bar. Meaning, regardless of whether there is weight on it or not, IT WILL FALL RIGHT OFF, weight, clip and all. Safety bars are bent out of shape. Miscellaneous equipment has literally been cut to pieces for no apparent reason. When asked what happened, the staff have no idea and don't care to have it replaced. Nobody bothers to put the weights in the proper places. You can easily spend half your workout hunting for plates and arranging them in the proper order. The one guy they had whose job was to arrange the plates, didn't even weigh more than the barbell and couldn't lift a plate to arrange it properly. Benches and anything with padding are mostly ripped and/or broken. They removed a power rack for no reason. A dip apparatus was removed for no reason. The plates for the barbells do not match. When the new owners took over this gym, they brought their old and broken plates with them, which was unnecessary since there was an abundance of iron plates and no broken rubberized plates. Their kettle bells are plastic and have been broken. I hope nobody was hurt. Holes in the walls that take months to have repaired. Same with the cracked windows. They no longer allow people to open the windows on hot days, so the poor air conditioning is all you have to rely on. The top floor is poorly organized. There is a hardwood floor next to the heavy lifting area that used to be for stretching, calisthenics and other things that required free space. Now it is used for cardio classes with loud shitty music and screaming participants that make it hard to focus on your lift. Back in the day, there was a wall between the two areas. It was broken down when they decided to stop classes. Now that these owners have revived cardio classes, they still have no idea how useful a wall would be. The cardio machines have been downgraded. Before the current management, there were at least two treadmills and numerous other machines that had heart rate sensors. These have been removed in favour of cheaper machines that sometimes do not work. Various water fountains do not work properly, blaming it on "the city". The workout areas are nearly as filthy as the locker areas. Overall, avoid this gym. There are better ways to spend your money. When even most of the staff dislike the new owners, you know there's a problem. If I could give this a zero or a negative number, I would.

    Definitely a place to avoid if you like weights, bars or anything that is not running on a…read moretreadmill. Maybe more appropriate for those who prefer classes and group workouts. Perhaps I would like them more if they were not littering the neighborhood two or three times a year with their flyers. They place them under every windshield wiper, hand them to every passerby. Every time we find that trash all over the neighborhood for 2 weeks. Very disrespectful of the community. For a better, less flashy gym at a better price and even more convenient business hours, I strongly suggest to check out the ÉTS (École de technologie supérieure) gym a few blocks west, and open to anyone, not just students.

    Multigym is pretty awful…read more I inquired a while back about joining and the guy on the phone (who came across like a sleazy used car salesman) insisted that if I wanted the special membership price, I would have to tell him exactly the 3 days a week that I was going to work out as well as the exact times. I actually thought he was joking, but he was completely serious! I calmly and politely explained to him that Montreal has gyms on every street corner with better or the same deals as his (year round) without outrageous policies invented over drinks by delusional business owners. He also tried to charge a sign-up fee of $50 or $100 - depending on what seemed like made up scenarios. I had to ask him: How could you have the nerve to try to to charge me for giving you my business? Avoid at all costs. I joined the YMCA and have been incredibly happy ever since.
