This is no longer a Retro Fitness. It is now a WillyB Fitness. Currently undergoing remodeling.
This is now WillyB Fitness. The whole place is being renovated, hot water being fixed as I type, towel service added, new equipment, improved WiFi, coffee lounge, better smoothies , apparel will be sold as well as supplements, new bathrooms with sauna.
New owners and new name for June 2019. The former Retro fitness gym at this location is now "WillyB fitness".
I've been a member of Retro and originally signed up at this location. It's a very large gym with lots of machinery. One of the things I didn't like was the fly machine being broken for over a month in addition to the glute machine binding and not working properly.
Other than that, the locker room was decently clean and the main floor pretty stocked with free dumbbells (well, maybe another set or so of the most used weights like 30's and 35's would be nice).
According to a recently sent out member email, the gym will undergo some modifications during operation, such as the addition of towels, Sauna's in both locker rooms, a new smoothie and coffee bar, hot water for the showers, and some new machinery, to name the most notable promises.
I'm sticking around for a month or so to see what manifests. Other Retro locations may not honor current membership id, as the Park Slope location of Retro fitness said I needed to rejoin at their location and pay a month's fee up front and commit to a one year plan. I'm holding out for a bit.
NO HOT WATER !!! For months plus no one has cleaned the showers in probably the same amount of time. Disgusting mold smell in every shower. How can you run a gym with NO HOT WATER so basically NO SHOWERS. I have been a member for years but am considering cancelling my membership I cannot be a member of a gym that I cannot shower after a workout. Very disappointed that this is even an issue a long standing one at that. Please get this resolved summer is right around the corner how are you not going to run a gym and not have working showers.
No hot water since January. They' had an "issue." So no showers. Two stars are for the staff who've always been wonderful. I've been a member for three years. Ownership changed last year. Unacceptable. Fix it.
UPDATE: Still no hot water
I'm working with a personal trainer - Valerie. She is wonderful! I'm seeing steady results and I enjoy the workouts. My favorite thing about Valerie is that she is very attentive.. I've been having lower back pain and she customized the workouts to help address that. My form has improved and I feel stronger. If you're looking for a good personal trainer, I definitely recommend her.
You get what you pay for. Cheap place. Most of the equipment is damaged. The weights are thown around the place. Most of the equipment doesn't look/feel clean either.
But ye know it's $20 a month so what more could you want

Affordable gym with everything you need and even more. Really versatile choice of cardio. Quiet clean and never too busy.
If your are looking for a simple gym, treadmill, few machines and free weights, this is the place. There is no pool or a steam room.

Great place . staff is super friendly and always helpful, especially the manager Benjamin
It's a budget gym that is rarely overly crowded. No, not all TV's work and no it isn't the cleanest gym I've ever joined, but I think it's a great value for the area. If you expect a health club, join Equinox for 10x what you will pay here.
I am really disappointed with the maintenance of this gym. On a regular basis there is hardly any paper towels. The punching bags are all about to fall apart. Machines are filthy and stay broken for quite sometime. TVs on the equipment never work. There is a mirror that is broken and it has been in this condition for months. I guess safety is not a concern to Retro. If I am paying Retro a yearly maintenance fee, why is the upkeep of this gym is mediocre?
friendly and helpful staff, clean atmosphere and of course more equipments than other locations I sometimes go to.
Great staff, clean environment and large gym. Great location.
This place is really washed up!! The locker room is Always filty, the weights for the machines can't be found anywhere at times, the machines are all beat up missing padding and grips, the res cables machines with no handles nor can you find them at all... This list goes on and on.. I can't even find nothing good to say honestly. I give it 2 stars for conviennce of location. But I won't be coming back here ever again. They also don't have nothing at times to clean the benches of sweat and it's just bad.. I hoped this place would be good but went 3 times and I am afraid I won't be going back. Plus there's no-one working there going around cleaning like other locations do... just a front desk person that says nothing to you while checking yourself in..
Great friendly environment with many variations of machines, boxing, movie room, cross training and other services offered with childcare offered for it's members during workout.. If my review was helpful you can say I referred you. Thank you hope u enjoy.
This is my favorite gym. Plenty of equipment spaced out, i give it 5 stars because the staff at the front desk are cool, can't drop a gyms stars because other members don't wipe down equipment it happens we're grownups, if tvs being broken are a deal breaker guess what you have one at home gyms were made to workout not catch up on a show.
Location is easily accessible, I value this place.
Very good staff, let me do an extra day on my 3-day guest pass because I couldn't use my 3rd day. Has all the machines and a cardio room where you can watch movies, nice touch!
Really just wish broken machines would be fixed. Going on a year for some. Can't really complain too much for the price but I'd sure love to see more of the popular machines. Only really bad thing about retro is the amount of careless patrons. Gross non-wipedowners and machine hogs that sit there for long periods "between sets" on their phones....
A place not secure and the management not good when you have a issue
It's a cool gym I liked it the staff I meet were cool it has a lot of machines and pre work out is surprisingly cheaper here rather than the other retro fitness.
