So it has charm as well as enough space that I never feel cramped. I also appreciate that staff members go out of their way to make sure I have a positive experience.

Finally, I want to mention that the owners/managers are constantly updating both the facility & the equipment.

I genuinely wanted to love this gym because the actual facility itself is very nice. The equipment…read moreis clean, the gym is well-maintained, and I truly enjoyed working out here while I was living in DC. Unfortunately, the membership and cancellation process completely ruined the experience for me and left me feeling like the business operates in a very predatory way. Before signing up, I explicitly told the employee helping me that I was only living in DC temporarily and would be moving out of DC at the beginning of the summer. I made this very clear because I did not want to accidentally get locked into a long-term contract while living somewhere short-term. I specifically asked what would happen when it was time for me to move, and I was told that cancelling the membership would be simple and "no problem." At absolutely no point during that conversation was I clearly informed that there would be a major early cancellation fee tied to the membership. Had someone transparently explained that cancelling early could cost me $149, I would never have signed up for this membership in the first place. Looking back, I honestly feel like the employee who signed me up was far more concerned about making a sale and getting his commission than actually helping me choose a membership that fit my situation and needs. I was upfront from the beginning that my stay in DC was temporary, yet I was still pushed into a long-term commitment that clearly did not make sense for someone in my circumstances. After moving and reaching out to cancel, the experience became incredibly frustrating. Instead of the "simple" process that had been described to me when signing up, I was suddenly told I needed to provide documentation proving my move and still pay a cancellation fee unless they decided to reduce it. That felt extremely misleading considering the circumstances had been disclosed from day one. To make matters worse, trying to contact corporate/customer service has been a complete nightmare. Emails regularly go unanswered for days at a time, communication is incredibly slow, and the entire process feels intentionally difficult and drawn out. There were even initial delays because the employee who signed me up entered my email incorrectly into the system. However, despite being told that the issue had been corrected, I still continued experiencing long periods without responses to my emails afterward. I have specifically had issues receiving timely responses from Jacob Kass, Karolin Nilsson, and Alex throughout this process, which has only added to the frustration. What is especially frustrating is that I am STILL in the middle of trying to cancel this membership over a month later. A cancellation process should not take this long or require this much back-and-forth communication just to resolve something that I was originally told would be "no problem." This entire process has been exhausting and unnecessarily stressful. What bothers me most is not even the money itself. It is the lack of transparency during the sign-up process combined with how difficult the cancellation process becomes afterward. If a customer openly tells your staff they are only in the city temporarily and asks about cancelling when they move, that is the exact moment when the contract terms and cancellation penalties should be very clearly explained. Instead, I was reassured that it would not be an issue, only to later find out that I was locked into a twelve-month commitment with expensive penalties attached. I do not recommend this gym to anyone. It is run in a way that I believe is a disservice to its customers. A nice facility does not make up for misleading membership practices, poor communication, and a cancellation process that feels intentionally difficult. This entire experience has been exhausting, frustrating, and deeply disappointing. - Sophie Nduati

This gym is in a great location with waterfront metro a few blocks away. They have a great, warm…read moreindoor pool and lounge chairs with their outdoor pool. They also have two locker rooms near the indoor pool (which is not insulated) and I'm the main gym area. Towel service is included with your membership! I actually like that it is a regular, basic gym and not high tech and fancy. Two minor issues is the showers by the indoor pool take a bit to warm up, if at all...and some do not have shower curtains. The second issue, again with the same locker room is it's hard to find a working one. Initial fee pp is $75 and we got the family membership for $120/month. For the holidays they are offering 50% off your initial fee if you bring in 5 canned items!

I've been a member here for 3 years. This gym is designed for someone who needs a convenient and…read morecost-effective place to work out. Though the equipment is not brand-new (don't expect a personal tv on your treadmill) and the space is limited (only 4 treadmills, 2 ellpiticals, and 2 bikes) Waterside Fitness is a neighborhood gym where the staff will recognize you and you'll get to know others who attend as well. The gym has a few classes including aerobics, yoga, and strength and there's no extra fee to attend if you're a member. All in all, it's just what I need on a daily basis. But if you're looking for a cutting edge place like WSC where there are rows and rows of equipment and a full schedule of back-to-back classes, you'll be disappointed. The membership fees are around $50/month and they'll give you a guest pass for a day to check it out before you join.

As a Black man and…read morelongtime Equinox member, I left this location feeling racially profiled, humiliated, and completely dismissed by management. After already being inside the gym for hours, I stepped outside to take work calls and had difficulty being allowed back in. I asked the front desk employee to simply look up my membership profile and photo, but he refused. When I asked for a manager, the assistant manager immediately defended the employee without genuinely listening to my concerns or attempting to resolve the situation. Instead of being treated like a paying member with a legitimate concern, I felt singled out and publicly embarrassed. The situation somehow escalated into my membership being terminated companywide, despite me never threatening anyone or using profanity. For a company that markets itself as a luxury experience, the treatment I received was anything but professional. My concerns about racial profiling were dismissed rather than taken seriously. I expected much better from Equinox.

Since the renovation, they've added a hair salon and the massage rooms are on a different side than what they use to be... I hear other masseuse are good here however here, I've only experienced TINA!!! No one compares to Tina. She is absolutely AMAZING with her hands!! I remember once time she informed me that I had a sprained ankle. Mind you I had went to urgent care a few days before and they couldn't tell me what was wrong with my ankle. Smh... and I never even shared this info with Tina so for her to explain to me how my ankle was inflamed and I should be careful running before I injure it more, I was impressed. She also puts me to sleep with her massages. :::)))) best naps ever! Can't wait to come again!!!! Happy Yelping!

Now, as far as staff some members can be very dismissive and passive when it comes to the members who pay and their guest. There's an older lady in the front who works directly with guest who is very difficult to get a long with at times.

I would recommend some sort of training on how to sharpen up some of the workers customer service skills to brighten up the experience. Overall 6/10.

We initially had a reservation in the Presidential Dining room, but it was closed that day, so we ended up visiting the grill.

The night we went, they were having a happy hour with a free appetizer buffet and discounted beer and cocktails. We really liked this, and I recommend the Pina Colada. Another cool thing was that they had a basket of popcorn on every table. I don't know if they do this every night or if this was part of the happy hour, but I love popcorn, so I was thrilled. After the drinks and appetizer buffet, I was really full, so I ordered the guacamole and chips for dinner. It was a really great night, and the club was not crowded.
