This is not your cookie cutter cardio-focused gym. Only those serious about fitness need apply. The gym space is mostly targeted towards weight training, however they have a dedicated roomy - yet - (glass) enclosed studio for fitness classes for HIIT / Cardio / etc (stuff I don't really follow or know much about, I only see them while in the gym).

Also the gym staff is super kind and allowed me to have a day trial at the gym when they are not really entitled to do that. I stayed for a while and tried to enjoy the gym to the fullest. It’s very clean and you can tell they are about that. I went during peak time and there was plenty of space to feel comfortable. This is all you need for a gym. Monthly it is pricy but it’s Manhattan and if you enjoy fitness it...
Read moreIt’s always nice to find and support a family business, especially when the staff is friendly and the place is clean! The women’s locker room is clean, well maintained and they even have a vanity mirror so you can get ready after working out/showering.
The front desk staff is super friendly and very knowledgeable on every aspect. The pricing is also a plus considering the fact that there are other lager corporations around that charge twice as much.
I will definitely continue to renew my membership as I am very happy and comfortable in the...
