Most of the bad reviews for this gym are from 5+ years ago - there must have been some serious renovations/improvements since then, because I don't think those problems still exist. I just joined this gym about a month ago, and IS expensive, but I feel like I'm getting so much more use out of it than I did my BSC membership. First of all, the cardio equipment is very nice, with built in touch screens that let you track your workout with an app on your phone. The complaints from users that you have to sign up for the cardio equipment are no longer the case; even at 5-6 pm there are still usually a couple of machines free (you might not get your favorite treadmill, but it's not over capacity). It does get busy on the free weight floor, but I'll take having to wait my turn over having to awkwardly work out around a bunch of much more fit bros any day. Moreover, the gym is clean, spacious, well lit, and has a nice view - yes it's weird that the check in and locker room are in the basement and the workout floor is on the third or fourth floor of the building, but whatever. Overall, I think this is a good investment if you can afford it. If you're a teacher, mention that - you get a small discount off their mid-tier package but it's worth it.
