Sad to go, it's a beautiful space and the staff is friendly. BTW quitting is NOT easy. I tried numerous times by email while I was travelling for work and landed up paying for months I never used.

After nearly a year of emailing and notifying the gym staff and "complaint box" about, I finally…read morequit this place. The staff doesn't help clean the place up, people don't re-rack their weights, the free weights and kettlebells are impossible to use because they can only be accessed by the classes, there's a single bench press area, a single squat rack/deadlift platform, spin bikes are only available during classes, two benches, and as I mentioned, nearly no available kettlebells and free weights outside of classrooms. Teens take over the place, as do unsupervised children. Lifting on a wooden floor is dangerous. I personally had to put up a "broken do not use sign" on a broken peleton, because the staff didn't notice. There's one plyo box that you have to run around to find. NO showers...in a gym. The manager, Chris, does not address your concerns, even after contacting him personally.

It's just an okay gym. I like the location and the variety of machines available, but I wish they…read morehad a better selection for free weights and mobility exercises. The main issue is the cleanliness. The gym floor is dirtier since it became a 24 hour gym. The floor is often filthy. They need to hire more employees to stay on top of the clutter, too. People just leave weights and plates all over the gym. It would be helpful if the staff were available to assist with putting things back where they belong.

If you're looking for a great gym in Brooklyn, the Crown Heights Blink Fitness is definitely up…read morethere. While I love my Blink in Bed-Stuy, this one has its own charm, especially with its modern, spacious setup and fantastic location. First off, the convenience is a huge plus. The gym is right near the Franklin Avenue subway station, so getting here is a breeze whether you take the A or C trains. If you're coming by bus, you've got options like the B15 and B43 lines. And if you're driving, there's parking around, though the traffic around here can be a bit crazy. Honestly, sometimes I joke that if you really need to get to downtown Manhattan or Brooklyn, you'll wish you could just physically run there because the streets can get so congested! But on the bright side, being on the second floor of the gym, you get a nice view of Lower Manhattan, which is a cool reminder that you're only a few stops away from the city. As for the gym itself, it's clean, well-kept, and has a good amount of equipment so you're never waiting around. The staff is super friendly, and I've never had an issue with anything. It's on the second floor, and while the sound of weights dropping can echo a bit, it's really nothing that takes away from the experience. Plus, that view of the city skyline is a nice touch while you're working out. This Blink Fitness location is also an award-winner, which they proudly display with a championship belt in the gym - a cool touch that reflects their commitment to maintaining a top-tier environment for members. If you're hungry after your workout, there's no shortage of food options nearby. Right next door, there's Chipotle for a quick and healthy meal. Subway is around the corner if you're in the mood for a sandwich, and if you want something a bit more substantial, Friedman's serves up great brunch dishes. Saraghina is perfect for pizza, and if you're looking for plant-based food, PLNT Burger is a solid choice. All these places are within walking distance, and they offer a variety of healthy or veggie-friendly options. The gym's hours are pretty convenient too: it's open every day from 5 AM to 11 PM, so you can squeeze in a workout no matter your schedule. All in all, if you're in or near Crown Heights, this Blink Fitness is a great place to work out. The diverse staff and community make it a friendly place to get fit, and the convenient location means it's easy to stop by before or after other errands. Definitely recommend checking it out!

I came on a Saturday morning and the gym was pretty calm. Firstly, the gym is about 3 flights up so…read moreprepare your legs. There is an elevator but that day the elevator was not in service. The gym is small but it has everything you'll need. Not sure if this location was recently renovated but everything looked need, like brand new. Even the benches.

Back in July, while I was doing landmines with poor form. Daniel stepped in. He didn't sell me; he simply corrected me, encouraged me, and said, "try a free session with me' I did and I am thankful! Daniel is always on time and in great spirits. After years of waiting around for trainers who seemed allergic to punctuality, that alone earned him five stars in my book. Our sessions? I affectionately call them "complain or bust-my-butt" sessions. Daniel somehow manages to push me past my limits while letting me get a few good grumbles in. We get a lot done in a short time -- and now that I'm training with him three times a week, the results speak for themselves. I'm stronger, leaner, and fitter... and even other people have started noticing. If you want a trainer who's professional, efficient, and delivers results (without the sales pitch or the waiting game), Daniel's your guy. Just a warning -- he's an early bird, so set your alarm and get ready to work.

I've been training at 5th Ave for over 4 years and I love it…read more This place is different from a lot of other places I've been, so it's worth understanding that before you go. This is a boutique gym with a focus on personal training. I'm not a fitness buff -- I go to 5th Ave 1x / week to ensure I have at least one solid workout focused on strength training. The rest of the week I run, yoga, do workout classes or do strength training on my own with varying degrees of intensity/dedication. The trainers are experienced and high-quality, but above all this place provides a great place to work out in a relaxed atmosphere with a sense of community.

But I needed to get in shape (for my wedding - cliche, yes, but a great motivator) and thought I would give FC a try. I live close by so convenience was a big selling point (I'm a little lazy - also a road block to the whole gym thing). As it turns out, I really like working out. Still not sure I'd feel comfortable surrounded by super fit gym rats at, say, Crunch, but I'm much more confident in my abilities now, not to mention physically trimmer and stronger. FC has a great system, with wonderful trainers who are friendly and supportive and not at all intimidating. I only with I could train with them indefinitely! It's not cheap but definitely worth it.
