111 Apartments for Rent with Gyms

What's there to be so glad about anyway? Well, Gladstone is a small town located just south of Portland, one of the quirkier cities in the U.S. It's basically a Portland suburb, but don't try to tell that to locals. Many take pride in Gladstone's history, and for good reason--Gladstone's roots grow back to the mid 1800's, with the earliest land grants handed out by President Lincoln himself. The City of Gladstone, which grew up right about where the Clackamas River joins the Willamette River (pronounced Will-AM-it), has a population of about 11,500 people, but it's surrounded by the 2.2 million people who live in the Portland Metro area, of which it is a part (get over it, Gladstone).

Apartment complexes with a gym offer a valuable amenity to Gladstone renters looking to get fit and slash their gym membership. However, not all gyms are the same.

Make a list of your must-haves in a gym setting. Ask about the variety and age of any cardio machines. Also ask about any weight training equipment and free weights.

Consider the spaciousness of the workout area. Some apartment gyms are small. Those can create tension with tenants looking to squeeze in a workout before or after work.

If you enjoy circuit training, make sure there’s enough space to spread out and get in the workout you want.

Cleanliness is also crucial to an apartment gym experience. During your apartment tour, carefully inspect the fitness area to check for cleanliness and any extra perks. Also consider the potential savings if you can cancel a gym membership!

Towels, an attendant, flat-screen TVs, and a locked door for exclusive tenants access can all add value to your apartment gym experience.
