Stay away, this place is dangerous to your health and wallet, never fails to disappoint
Great gym with my favorite belly dancing class!
This just might be the city's worst gym. The water and heat facilities are constantly out of commission, but it is OK because they are disgusting, so you wouldn't want to use them anyway. The gym is covered by old carpeting, including the bathrooms. I can't imagine the amount of mold, bacteria, and undiscovered species that exist in it. The equipment is old and the machines are often broken. The light fixtures can be out for days before they fix them. There is no central ventilation, so they have makeshift fans and mobile AC units all over the gym, taking up all the free space. There are often leaks from the nasty drop ceiling, and I am surprised there has not been a major fire yet. Personal training is extremely expensive, and while the trainers may be well-qualified and should be compensated accordingly, the gym they have to work in offers very limited options for fitness training, so you are not getting much for your money. The studios and rooms are extremely crowded because the gym is so small, and mats and equipment are always strewn about because there is no place to store a lot of the stuff.

Friendly, helpful staff! I love the instructors and the atmosphere is non-competitive. Everyone seems to be concerned with their own workout, which I think is perfect for a gym! Oh, and major plus, classes are included in your membership.

They do not follow up via e-mail (weeks later they "check-up"). Additionally, when questions are asked online. They do not address them.
We shouldn't forget the customer. Potential customers should be dealt more serious.

This place used to be a well run neighborhood gym called the Paris Health Club. It was bought by a company called NFC Amenity Management about four-five years ago and has been in steady decline ever since. That is putting it mildly.
The showers hardly ever work, when they do they rarely have hot water. The ceiling regularly collapses leaving crumbled ceiling tile debris and leaking water all over the place. The air conditioning doesn't work in the summer, heat doesn't work in the winter, so there are cheap drug store electric heaters in precarious places throughout the gym, and a huge a/c unit in the middle of the floor surrounded with yellow caution tape. I once unplugged a broken wall fan that was quite literally about to burst into flames when I smelled the odor of melting plastic. It's a miracle no one has been injured!
They once had a really nice pool, it's been torn up and construction has been halted. Locker rooms are disgusting, with carpet on the floor that hasn't been replaced in probably ten years, would be really easy to just rip it out. But no. Nothing is ever done to fix anything.
There's only one working water fountain, the other one has been broken for about three years. How hard is it to get a water fountain fixed in NYC?
The equipement itself is ok, kept in working order I imagine because that's where the big liability is for the owners. But it's old. Newest stuff is ten years old. They used to have cable but now it looks pirated or something, all three of the channels are fuzzy. Maybe they are using an old pair of rabbit ear antennas.
The owners are at best unresponsive, when they do reply to emails asking what the hell is going on, they are indignant and rude. They ruined what was a real gem of a gym.
The only good thing to say about this place is the staff and trainers are very friendly and there is despite it all a strong sense of community here. But that has zero to do with what the gym itself offers, and just shows what resilient and patient people we Uppers West Siders are.
I am posting a photo of today's disaster, it will give you a good idea of what the current status quo is. It's the one with the blue tarp and yellow caution tape, after another ceiling collapse. The photos of people working out in a cool looking loft, of rows on nice cardio equipment, are not of this gym. The photo of the once glorious pool and hot tubs is old, there's a big dirty hole there now. I have flagged them, hopefully Google removes them soon as they are misleading (a generous euphemism for lying).

Nice and helpfull staff plus the gym is never crowded!
Worst plc to go. Old equipment, constant leaks from ceiling smells like mold. Had to buy my own neck protector as they don't provide any even after I asked the arrogant manager Christine and after a year still they didnt buy one! Horrible plc and glad I'm not there anymore. And buy the way,if you want to cancel you must have something serious so u can have a doctor's notice. Otherwise they will try to make hell of your life.

The center announced March 30 -- with 6 days' notice -- that its pool would close April 6 until sometime in the fall of 2015. I asked that I not be charged for April, and that my membership be suspended until the pool is open again, since I use the center for swimming only. I was told my contract required me to give 30 days notice and did not require the center to keep the pool open. So my credit card will be charged for April. I wish this center had given us 30 days notice, too.
Neighborhood gym, helpful staff, members are part of the reason I keep visiting. The classes are free and they keep a full schedule with options and good timing. The locker rooms are massive, so it's functional for getting ready for a meeting after working out without feeling cramped.
Not the most perfect gym. My score is primarily for the staff. Trainers Natasha Nesic, Melissa Gutierrez, and Eve Romero are very nice and helpful even for someone who doesn't pay for training. Their help and expertise goes above and beyond. House keeping staff Syviah Pagoada is also very sweet, helpful and often entertaining. These ladies have become the main reason I am happy to come to the gym. I love the sauna and steam rooms as well. The size and cleanliness of the facility is on point. I arrive and leave the gym with a smile every day. All the staff are friendly and do their best to give a good experience. Its not a perfect gym but if you like a more personal approach then this is the place to be.
Lot of machine great staff, free zumba, yoga,pilates and tango
