Equinox Wisconsin Avenue — Local services in Washington

I cannot recommend this Equinox location because of the City Ridge complex that it is located in is not safe from crime. I had my ebike, which was locked to the bike rack directly in front of the Equinox stolen in broad daylight on a Saturday afternoon. Roadside LLC, which owns and maintains CityRidge, has been uncooperative and claims no responsibility even though they do not have signs saying that they are not responsible if your bike is stolen. The security personnel who are in go-carts give a sham illusion of safety and security. There was a murder and shooting in the same complex a few months ago as well.

For a luxury, high end gym such as Equinox, I don’t feel that City Ridge, which cannot control crime such that you can’t even lock a bike in front of the Equinox without having to worry that it will get stolen, is an appropriate mixed-use retail/residential space.

The Equinox space itself is nice, although the facility is on the smaller side. The steam room is nice, and the yoga studio is pleasant as well. I will be looking to downgrade my Equinox membership so I don’t have this location as part...

From a weight training perspective, I can only give this gym 3 stars simply because of the variety and availability of equipment that you get for the price. The weight training area is a pretty inefficient use of space for a city gym. There are only 2 squat racks and 2 weight benches for flat bench press, and typically only one of each kind of plate loaded/selectorized machine. So, if you go at a busy time, you will probably have to wait for something during your workout. I have been a member of LA Fitness, WSC, YMCA, Gold's Gym, and VIDA in the DC area. Of those options, Equinox has been my most expensive membership and unfortunately I have not found that the experience is worth the price so far. If you want to join a "nicer" gym in the area for weightlifting, I would recommend VIDA over...

I am finishing my year of membership in this place so I have to say that the place is new, very clean and is usually not crowded, it is good for exercising, the hours of this gym are super bad, from Monday to Thursday they close at 10 pm, Friday until 9 pm and Saturday and Sunday 7 pm in this place they lost two belongings that I never found, the first was a white stanley thermos that I never appreciated and recently my airpods max headphones, which I was asking for several days and their answer was that the manager of the place was the only one who had access to the lost items box that had to arrive at a specific time, which I arrived at, they only made me sign a paper with the information, so apparently it is not a very safe place, I would not recommend it for...
