Best Gyms with Free Parking near Alameda, California

Great gym. The better of the two locations in Alameda. I was looking for somewhere that was open late since some days I'm only able to workout late in the evening. Has all the basics you need. Not a whole lot of frills but who needs to that to get a good workout. I haven't yet experienced a super busy time which is great. The areas are split up into weights and cardio. Encouraging messages posted on the walls all around. They already have 1 new piece of equipment since I joined. Staff and gym member are friendly. Day use lockers available for your stuff. Huge bathrooms with showers. So far all members are friendly and considerate. Staff have been great!

The Alameda gym is “best in class!” The gym is pristine and always clean, the members are quiet and respectful, and parking is a breeze. The equipment is well-maintained and although the gym is (thankfully) smaller than many gyms, there is easy access to all cardio & strength resistant equipment throughout the day. Most importantly, the owner, Stephan, is wonderful. He is intelligent, thoughtful, kind, and always responsive to questions concerning the gym. Stephan and his team consistently provide “flawless service” to their members! -An outstanding gym experience! Many thanks Stephan! -Elizabeth S.

Beautiful place and surrounding. After I come from San Francisco I would go and get a good workout. Beautiful memory.

The filthiest Anytime Fitness I’ve been to. The showers look like it never gets cleaned and the overall mood is depressing here.

A perfectly acceptable gym. Lots of equipment. Big showers.

For the price, I expect better. It’s a great space but a time Capsule: outdated equipment, old carpeted changing rooms and most group classes are scheduled between 9-5, so very difficult to attend if those are your working hours. The thing that fully turned me off are the sweaty equipments because most people don’t clean after themselves, even though I see the cleaning staff doing a few rounds.

One of the best facilities in the east bay!

Harbor Bay is a great club with pool, tennis, pickleball and lots of classes. Friendly too.

I love HBC. The place is a little old but very clean. Swimming in the pool is my happy place. Staff is nice and there’s plenty of machines.

I did a one day trial 6 months ago. The pool and tennis courts are nice, but this gym lacks the most basic equipment to do strength training. I don’t understand how they have a personal training program without the proper equipment. For example, they have 6 barbells but only 1 clamp and 1 barbell pad. That’s not enough clamps for even 1 barbell. They said members have to bring their own equipment if they’re missing. They also only have one squat rack. During my trial, it was incredibly uncomfortable having to compete with other members to use equipment. For the price of this gym, I expected better.
