Came in the gym through a recommendation from a friend, he gave me a voucher for a 3 day pass. Came in was greeted by a lady who her name slips my mind. Probably the manager, she showed me around told me how I need personal training classes which I had no interest in, as things progress I ask her if I can just work out and see the gym for myself by myself. Off I went, for my first work out I sat down about to play a song on my soundcloud. No wifi connection no cellular service no music means no work out lol that's just how I always workout with music. This is where it went down hill from their. Went to go speak to the guy at the front desk asked about the wifi. He said sorry you need to be a member to access the wifi. Asked if he can do anything to help out in the situation he said he couldnt. At that point I felt like I wanted to leave. My motivation was shot and as a last resort I asked the guy who was standing next to the register if he can help me out and sign in for me on my phone to use the wifi, offered to pay him. Guy was very rude and said let's not have this conversation. Guy saw I was Jewish since I had a Yamurka on my head and replied to me, "Oh that's what all YOU guys are good for is bargaining right." What a remark, at that moment I told that guy good luck and felt very angry to the piont I wanted to bash this guys head in with the computer monitor that was on the desk. Went downstairs did 2 sets of a work out to let of some steam and after went complained to that same lady manager what occurred and told her how I felt and how unprofessional that scenario turned out and I had to experience an anti Jewish Remark. The guy at the counter saw the whole thing and didn't say a word, I have a barbershop around the corner on Maiden lane and i do not tolerate any prejudice of any kind and if I were to ever have something like that happen in my place of business I would kick the guy right out. I hope the management sees this review and shows it to that ignorant guy who slurred the prejudice slur. So to conclude, don't push private training even after saying no, get wifi for everyone especially since you guys have no service at all in the gym, and last and biggest thing is to call out ignorant jerk offs from harassing potential clients. Other than that gym looks ok, sauna doesn't work "yet", and not so crowed.
