I've been a member here for over 25 years! It's close to where I live and has a wonderful pool. The ambience is low key and relaxed for a health club and I like that. Because it's in a temple, there are restrictions on hours, which can be annoying - e.g. closed Friday evening and Saturday morning also closed for Jewish holidays. Some membership plans DO allow you to go to Brooklyn Heights on OFF hours, which is good.
I've been going to this gym for about three years and even after I moved away from the neighborhood I kept going back. I like the swimming pool, the staff at the desk, lifeguards, and convivial gym goers I come across at times! It's definitely one of my comfort spots in New York. I felt the average review point doesn't do this place justice, which is why I decided to leave my own, one that's overdue.
The place is falling apart extremely diry the stacase in the smells mashrooms. Also has very bad service and the worst timetable for the weekends
THIS IS THE WORST PLACE WHEN IT COMES TO CUSTOMER SERVICE COMMUNICATION, THEY TEAM UP TO ROB PEOPLE. IF YOU GIVE NOTICE OF CANCELLATION 60 DAYS BEFORE YOUR MEMBERSHIP EXPIRES THEY BLAME ONE ANOTHER FOR NOT MAKING THE CANCELLATION. DIANA WILL TELL YOU TO WAIT FOR BENNY AND BENNY WILL TELL YOU TO WAIT FOR DIANA PHONE CALL AFTER PHONE CALL THEY STILL TELL YOU TO WAIT FOR THE ONE WHO ISNT THERE TO COME IN, UNTIL THE DEADLINE IS PAST DUE. THIS IS A MAFIA AND ILLEGAL ROBBERY I DO NOT RECOMMEND ANYBODY TO GO THROUGH THIS EXPERIENCE AND THEN THEY WILL END UP TELLING YOU TO SPEAK TO A THIRD PARTY.
Excellent place to work out, great swimming area. Clean and spacious, not crowded and full of testosterone jocks. Definitely a place to check out!

I have been a member of this gym for about a year and a half now and I LOVE IT. I have belonged, over many decades, to many NYC gyms; none of them are perfect but this sure comes close! The staff, the entire staff, is so welcoming and friendly. Genuinely so. The facilities are unbeatable. BIG workout room for free weights and exercise machines, really high ceilings and lots of natural light. Same goes for the separate room adjoining it for stretching and other floor exercises. Good schedule for workout classes and the pool, although I personally don't swim, looks great. Locker rooms are large and super clean. Plenty of fresh towels. They have a personal trainer, Otto, who has a cult following. I am among those, as Otto has been instrumental in getting me back into shape after a frozen shoulder. He really knows his stuff. I go to workout about five times a week and always leave . . . . always . . . . . feeling SO much better, physically as well as mentally. It's a really positive thing to do for yourself.

Keep charging you when you tell them you just want to do the trial membership and don't live in Brooklyn. Gym is nice membership consultant is a scum
Great place...pool, sauna, steamroll n great equipment...
I like the Olympic size indoor pool on the 7th floor. The classes are all great specially the hydro fit classes. Good equipment never too crowded. Nice trainers that really help motivate. The rug in the ladies locker is not very nice.

It's usually fairly empty. Lots of space for a stretching. Indoor, heated lap pool is pretty nice.

The EAC on Eastern Parkway in Brooklyn has one of the best swimmimg pools in NYC. The swimming pool is 75 feet in length. The width is divided into two big lanes which can accomodate 4 people swimming in circles and two smaller individual lanes. The pool is well managed and usually clear and at a reasonable temperature. Staff is always friendly and the trainers are excellent.
Don't listen to the negative reviews. This place is wonderful, large, clean, and never busy. Just make sure to check the schedule ahead of time. If they are closed the other location is usually open and membership is for both places.

This place is managed by a squad of lunatics. They have no value for their customers whatsoever, and operate with a mean spirited attitude, as if they couldn't care less if you join or not. This is my 3 third time trying in 10 years work with them, and they are really bad! Besides, the place is not clean, the gym is old and stinky, and the pool is not clean either. Pick another place, you will avoid aggravation and diseases.
I would not recommend this to anyone. First off, they are liars: I called three times to confirm that kids were allowed all day, on day passes, and and was told absolutely, 100 percent, with no limits. However, when we got to the pool, the very rude and nasty woman at the front desk told us that (1) open swim was not available and (2) the pool closed at 1pm. When I explained that I had called and been told none of those things, she told me that wasn't her problem. I expect this to go out of business and fast. Just terrible all-around. You promise your children swimming, and then surprise! Not gonna happen.
Been coming here for a long time. Great gym! Never packed
If you are a person who is serious about healthy lifestyle and fitness, this gym is not for you. It's closed very often. The membership fees are a little bit cheaper than others, but it is not worth it with its inflexible and crazy schedules. I always end up with heading back home from the gym door on my work out days because the gym is closed.
Clean lockers, basic gym and great pool. Staff is friendly and hours are reasonable.
