The best gym to be at. From the classes to the trainers to the basketball court.

Ive been a member at this gym for 4 out of my 7 years in Bayonne and I'm a bit confused about the terrible reviews. The billing is VERY clear ahead of signing the contract, and even if you want out, they are notorious for working with people. The gym is always spotless and the service has always been great for me...Even the owner called to check in on me after learning that my mom was battling cancer. The gym is in a central location that is convenient for parents. Only wish there was a pool.

If you ask about the no contract membership they wil treat you like garbage. The guy on the phone had me on hold for a while for no reason.

BETTER STAY AWAY!! WORSE BILLING PRACTICE!!
This place has a very worse billing practice and mislead customers by hiding few facts.
For example, they mentioned i can enroll my friends in my family membership. So i took the member ship but later they denied this. Thus us about misleading customers.
They never mentioned that there is a 60 day notice period for cancellation of subscription even for a annual contract .
While cancellation , the staf behave very rude and they speak like doing a favor and charge hidden fee annual contract(80$) , 2 months fee.
If you start arguing , they respond very rudely by asking dont u read contract that we mailed you.
THERE IS NO ZERO RATING FOR THESE REVIEWS . OTHERWISE I WOULD HAVE GUVEN ZERO RATING

I went there to check out prices and as soon as I came inside the people wanted all my information from my address to my health insurance saying that "they just need to keep track of who comes in". I honestly found it very interrogating how they already wanted all that before I even knew I could afford it. When I was leaving the lady at the counter tried to grab me to stop me from leaving. This was very unprofessional of her and scary to be honest. I wouldn't join a gym that is that people hungry!

Questionable billing practices; blames billing company for incorrect charges even though club bills you. Fail to return phone call in a reasonable time. Employees seem to have high turnover. Seems no one communicates effectively so ALL employees know correct information. Hidden fees, like the fee to downgrade from a family plan to a single plan ($40+ I found out about later). Only gave two stars because I liked the classes.

The place is a dump and not clean.
My first time in there, I was given every excuse by the manager as to why the air vents were caked with filth, the bathrooms had paper towel strewn everywhere (I've seen rest areas on a hokiday look better) and the showers were moldy with cracked tile. You could see where they replaced the ones which fell off and there were plenty more ready to come off.
When I asked how often the carpets were steam cleaned, I was told once every two months. That's disgusting. The rubber floors? Twice a day, she said. I didn't believe her for a second.
The disinfectant spray bottle (for wiping down the machines after using them) - the only bottle in the place - was nowhere to be seen and there was no paper towel, either. Heck, they can't even wash either the interior mirrors or the outside windows - there were hand prints everywhere.
How often do they clean the steam rooms? Every hour, which is standard? No. Every week.
The machines were outdated and some of them looked like they needed to be fixed. Holes in the plywood deck (elevated platforms for some machines) and broken tile on the bathroom floor are safety hazards, but it didn't seem to phase the manager. When the "maintenence crew" (one guy) showed up, it looked like he was a little pissed we interrupted his workout. He had a weight belt and lifting gloves on. Totally hilarious.
I ran my hand on the top of a wall - one which she said was checked/cleaned daily and I found two years of dust bunnies on top.
Time for a visit from the health department; it's ironic a "health" club might end up making you sick. This place needs a serious flush - both of the facility and the management.

Do not join this gym if you are going to have any unforeseeable life event that requires you to cancel. They are completely two-faced! Call you every other day to get you to join, but if you need to cancel it's like they went out of business. I called every day for a week and NEVER received a phone call back. I have to go there and stalk them to get them to talk to me! I had to cancel my personal training because I changed jobs and was making significantly less, they wouldn't let me cancel even though the contract says nothing about not being able to cancel after the 3 day period. Apparently you can't have a major life event where now your struggling to make rent but also they want their money. I was forced to move out of my apartment and stay with a friend so that I could pay my bill. I started this process in October 2015, I still have no been able to cancel. That's 5 months!!!!!!! When I was starting this process, one of the staff members, Margaret Bayse, berated me on the phone. Telling me to "put my big girl pants on and be an adult" Part of being responsible is knowing when not to go into debt, which this place will do. I've even had employees tell me that all they care about is money, and wouldn't get paid. If your employees are saying this, there's something wrong. The only reason they've been in business this long is because they don't allow you to leave; even if you lose your job or have major surgery.
I would NEVER recommend this gym nor will I return. They should be reported to the Better Business Bureau and also mandate everyone to take a seminar on customer service. I've never been spoken to that way, and I would be fired if I ever spoke to a client/paying customer that way. It was appalling. I also noticed the owner only replies to positive reviews on here. Not surprising.
