You get what you pay for. NYSC is a mid-tier health club for mid-tier prices. I like that membership allows you to visit all non-Premier clubs and there are plenty in the city. You get fresh towels and this club is very large over 4 floors with the same equipment as most other clubs. No swimming pool. Unlike their 51st street club, the machines have yet to be renewed, likewise the changing rooms. Remember to bring your own lock for the lockers. In my experience, 90% of the machines are working. The treadmills are not callibrated so the pace of each one is a little random, some easier, some harder than the pace you set. The fourth floor weights room can get crowded. TV service is a bit of a lottery on the machines. They constantly play corporate videos highlighting fantastic front desk staff talking about greeting members by name. This only goes to contrast the reality of someone exuding boredom scanning your membership in silence without making eye contact barely glancing away from their smartphone. I only visit this club at weekends so rarely see any staff other than front desk, janitorial or a trainer or two. Overall, I give it a 3 stars as the facilities are desperately in need of a refresh, and there seems to be a general lack of focus on details and quality customer service which isn't a cost issue.
Love this gym! Lot of different equipment and staff very nice
I would not recommend this gym to anyone. Truly the worst customer service I have ever experienced in my life. Was incorrectly charged for 3 months straight and the management team including Marvin, did nothing to rectify it. When requesting to cancel, they ignored me for days on end and then charged me for yet ANOTHER MONTH.
In addition to the terrible customer service, their equipment is out-dated, and 30% of the machines are usually out of order. With so many options for gyms in NYC and the UES, I would recommend looking far away from this poor excuse for a fitness center.
This gym has nice people working in the Coachs are very knowledgeable, I would give to them 4 stars because some give a little less of the time we pay, however this gym is awful. Every ten machines, only 3 work perfectly. I've been training at this gym for almost two years, unfortunately it's the only one near my house, but it's so frustrating the lack of consideration for us by this administration that what they charge should compensate us for wasting time because even with 8 stairs, and getting 4 sometimes 5 unused we have to wait because nothing works properly or is broken. The spinning bikes are all noisy and some are broken - there is 6, but only 2 works properly! The machines may cause accidents because they have been without maintenance for a long time, at least since I'm here. I already complained about to the administration but they don't care about. I do not recommend this gym at all because there is nothing that has a positive point except personal trainers.
Not very clean - equipments are dusty. The soft cushion flooring makes it hard to get a good balance with heavy weights when you are standing.
For the price they charge, this needs to have a much better/tidy setup. Used to go to Blink and I prefer their environment.
They say they'll renovate, but never do. Broken machines, and very rarely stocked with necessary items like tissues, wipes, etc. Nonsense
I lived in the area 3 yrs ago and was shocked how packed this place got with people ..reason because way cheaper than others in hood...the equipment is very limited and very old...
Now arriving back 3 yrs later nothing has changed so I just walked out again..

Equipment is old and outdated. Staff routinely showed up after 5am when gym is supposed to open AT 5am.
This location is ok. They do have bigger and more spread out locations. This one has the main location on 76th with some machines, locker room on the 2nd floor, more machines on the 3rd with studio 1 and some weights on the 4th. I usually go after work around 6. Straight after work you will be able to find a machine. But wait like 10 mins and everything fills up fast and there are a lot more people. A little bit emptier during the fall and winter season. Classes are great, some instructors are better than some at motivating you. The cycling studio and studio 2 are not located in the same place. It is located on 1st avenue between 77th and 76th on the east side. There is an app online which you can use to sign up for classes. I recommend the passport. Because then you can go to any NYSC in the city and some of them have different classes available and at different times.

Cleaningness is an issue at the 59th street and Park Avenue spot. Never have enough towels and conditioner. One of their trainer is always loud, arrogant and disrespectful of others.
Basic but dirty. I have been going there for several years, due to convenience, nothing else, it is not expensive so you get what you pay for. But recently, I have seen a real decline in cleanliness. At different times my wife and I have tried using the fourth floor weights, but it smells so bad, I just could not take it. I imagine all they need to do is put in a couple of air exhaust fans.

Really friendly, helpful crew, plenty of equipment, not glossy or fancy but functional. Even busy plenty of options
I've been a member of multiple NYSC's in Queens before I moved to UES. I picked this club over the 3rd and 91st one, which isn't as nice. The gym is 4 stories and very accessible. Most members keep to themselves and are respectful of others. The usual cleaning staff takes care of the floors each night and the equipment is fairly new and in working order. Occasionally, there are some bikes and precor machines that are out of order or aging badly without TV controls. But the weights and most other machines are great. Showers, sauna and locker room are clean. Great gym for the price if you are not looking for Equinox.
Definitely needs a makeover. Has gone downhill over the past two years. The cleaning staff seems to be diligent, however I have seen two waterbugs. The showers need to be cleaned more often.
The front staff is friendly and polite.
I've been a member here for the past 3 years. The staff is great! I enjoy the gym classes & the opportunity to workout inside when it's nasty out.
My trainer, location and the friendly staff keep me coming back year after year. However, The place is not as clean as it used to be. I'm not sure why the machines and mirrors can't be wiped down more frequently. And the dust and dust bunnies need to be vacuumed. My mom's gym is so clean that the staff even periodically wipe down the weights! Now that's impressive.
Errol Roberts is a great trainer if you are considering personal fitness training.
Overall gym experience was good, just be careful to put in the cancellation notices in time as per the policy.
Found a live cockroach scuttering around (TWICE!) in the weight room and when I confronted the staff all they had to say was "Okay, Gotcha." Place is dirty, cramped, awful layout, equipment stays broken for weeks at a time, and always smells funny. Only decent part about it is its cheap for students, only $30.
This gym offers multiple equipment. I love the fact that they offer free classes and they also offer complimentary personal training. The equipment is up to date. The plus for me is the sauna and cleanliness!!!
It's an incredible 4 stories of fitness that is motivating and inspiring with multiple machines for each body part and members that take their work out seriously
