    I came back 10 years later to realize that even on a weekday, this gym is too small for us. The…read moreonly pro was the new sauna. We visited on a Tuesday morning around 10am and most of the machines on the lower level already had someone waiting. I saw a lot of people tapping others to ask how many more sets they were going to do. We are gym hopping to find the best gym for us and we did not sign up. I can only imagine how crowded it would be after 5pm or on a weekend. I also don't want to wait around for machines or have people constantly ask if we are done yet. Also, there's a really cool stretch zone underneath the stairs. We couldn't try it out because someone was on it for over an hour. But looks good!

    Extremely disappointing and deceptive business practices. My membership expired four months ago,…read moreyet this gym continued charging my credit card without any communication whatsoever. When I spoke with management, they pointed to fine print in the contract stating that the membership automatically converts to a month-to-month agreement. Despite the fact that I had not attended the gym for over 300 days due to an injury -- and even provided medical documentation to management -- they still continued billing me without a single courtesy call or attempt to address the situation reasonably. The customer service and attitude from management were completely unacceptable. I have been a member since this gym first opened, which makes the experience even more disappointing. Instead of valuing long-term members, they appear far more interested in continuing automatic charges than maintaining professionalism or customer relationships. On top of that, the gym is consistently overcrowded regardless of the time of day, with machines almost always occupied, making workouts frustrating and inefficient. Overall, this has been an extremely negative experience. I would strongly advise others to read every line of their contract carefully and think twice before joining.

    Just began my new journey to another gym after canceling from Puregym, since the gym culture isn't…read morethe same it used to be back when it was Blink Fitness but that's a story for another time. It just feels good to see staff at the front greeting me in and showing me the ropes of the place. I have seen this location many times passing by but admittedly foregone it in favor of Blink Fitness years ago because that was close to my location. Wanting to switch to another gym brought the opportunity to come here and it is slightly friendlier compared to Puregym, at least not as cold or sterile. It is Spring Break now so of course the gym was pretty packed but for what it's worth I was fortunate not to come across people doing super sets on various machines or spending several minutes on one machine I wanted to try out. Even had short conversations with 2 gym goers. In this day and age, social connection is very valuable so it felt almost as good as getting a solid workout in. Granted the Red and Yellow theme seems a bit garish, almost as if this place was created and run by Hulk Hogan but it's a nice change of pace from the dull and monotonous theme of the previous gym I was in. The one perk the gym has that separates it from others is that Retro Fitness has it's own Smoothie bar and a varied selection of them. I chose the Mocha Mania to be my first one and it sure does fill you up. It makes for a fine replacement as opposed to going to a fast food joint after a workout. Retro Fitness is my new home and with the highest tier I signed up for, I'm ready to explore more.

    The Early Childhood program at the YMCA is one to definitely consider if you have a young child…read more Their 3-K and Pre-K classes help with fundamental learning and questioning of several subjects such as math, science, and reading. With top qualified teachers and aids, lead by the program's Director Lois Rothstein, rest assured that your child will have a rewarding experience at the Y. They create an environment that fosters a love of learning and friendship. Like everything, beginnings can be hard but with 3-K teachers such as Ms. Marieta and Ms. Ruby, children embrace starting school everyday and anticipate the next. Ms. Miri and Ms. Elizabeth reinforce children's curiosity of learning and play in Pre-K through deeper exploration of the various subjects. Adding interactive play elements to engage children's sense of independence, focus and accomplishment. The Early Childhood Program at the YMCA is a hidden treasure in our community. Join the many students and parents that hoped it could continue through 8th grade. I highly recommend this program to all parents with young children.

    As a black person, I felt so uncomfortable at this gym that I only went once, ended my membership…read morethe same day and after speaking with the Membership Director, received a full refund for the month that I paid for. I recently moved to Queens and switched my YMCA from Prospect Park to Flushing. This Y is a major downgrade from the Prospect Park location in so many ways. most importantly the staff. I went to the small pool to do water aerobics. I have a mini tripod that attach to my phone and I watch a YouTube video of water aerobics and follow along. I have done this at at lease 3 different gyms, and SEVERAL times at the Prospect Park YMCA with absolutely no issues whatsoever. As soon as I walk in, although there are many swimmers in the pool, the white lifeguard immediately notices me. She is across the room and starts YELLING at me. "There's no phones allowed in the pool That's the Y's policy!" I say "what policy? I didn't have any issues with the Prospect Park Y." She then yells back, "Well this ain't Prospect Park." Then I ask her what the issue is and she ANGRILY yells, "We're not going to be responsible if you mess up your phone." I reply that I wasn't expecting them to be responsible if I damage my phone and that I'll pit it further away from the water. She waves me off. Then she yells to one of the swimmers that inquired about what was going on "Phones aren't allowed! She's on her phone!' I yell, "Well get the manager if it's a problem." She taps the walkie talkie on her hip and cockily replies "Oh, he's coming!" The manager comes in and says "We can't have phones in the pool, it's against our policy." Then escorts me out of the pool. I was humiliated!!! After I got dressed, I asked him to show me where this policy is written. He could not. All he could say was "It's against our policy to have phones in the pool area and the locker rooms" and gave me his manager's card to contact. After contacting his manager, she explained that their policy is that phones aren't allowed in the locker room nor the pool to protect the member's privacy. In my opinion, this could've been handled MUCH better and it would've been if she didn't immediately see me as a Nefarious Negro up to no good. All the life guard needed to do was ask me what I was doing with the phone. Instead she immediately started yelling and got aggressively defensive. Should I have matched her energy, I would've been labeled the angry black woman, the aggressor and I would've probably been banned from the Y. This was an egregious micro aggression that left me extremely embarrassed and made me feel unsafe. I was escorted out like I was some shady black criminal that should've never had access to that space in the first place. To add to this, the gym is filthy. The pool area had crud on it, the locker rooms were also disgusting. It's also very old with the exception of the cardio room that was recently renovated. Parking is also horrible. If you are black, I would avoid this YMCA at all costs. Not only does the staff not know how to communicate policies properly, and it's clear that they themselves are unclear about the policy, but they come off as RACISTS. This location also has very few black members which could be why the lifeguard was so startled that a Negro was in the midst.

    Best choice ever I just moved to this gym 2 months ago and…read moremy experience compared with the gym I used to go before it's been totally different. I think that in our culture as Hispanic people we have this sense of community and respect, we like to feel that we are in home everywhere we go and that's how I feel at this gym. The staff welcome you with a greeting and a smile every time that you check in, and they say good bye to you when you leave. For me this is important because I feel that I'm really welcome there. In general is pretty clean the whole time. The cleanest bathrooms that I've seen. Disinfecting wipes dispensers are always full and you can see the staff always walking around the Instalation cleaning and putting equipment on it's place ( they always ask if you are using it before they take it) if you go between 9:00 am - 4:00 pm you will be really happy because there is not many people. The staff is respectful and helpful if you have a problem they do their best to help you and find a solution for you.

    I really try my hardest not to post negative or disappointing reviews because I always prefer to…read moresee the positives over negatives of things but I still have to be honest and forthright in each review I put down and I can't pull any punches on this one. This location has earned the dubious title of my least favorite Blink fitness spot. Before I put it into detail, I'll note a few positives of this place. It's a two floor spot with a lot of space and variation of machines and is pretty close to a bevy of restaurants in the area. However, despite all of the space in the location, it's already deemed irrelevant when the whole gym is packed from top to bottom. I've been to crowded gyms before and they weren't too bad but I'm not a fan of the atmosphere here at all. The place gets crowded as early as 10:30 AM, ON WEEKDAYS! Imagine how hellish it could be on the weekends and peak afternoon hours. Most of the people here speak Spanish and my Spanish is mediocre at best, which makes me feel like a foreigner in this place and some of the people here in the gym occupy certain machines and do supersets on them with the length of a short movie. Maybe that's an exaggeration, but I do recall one guy being on the chest press machine for almost 20 minutes and I found that absurd. The atmosphere here is very off putting and I'm a guy that is easily influenced by the vibes of certain places, which is why I value service over presentation when I review restaurants, and I'd rather work out in a barebones gym yet have fun with a small group of people than be in a state of the art gym and feel alienated. My trip here was not pleasant, there were machines I couldn't get to use today because they are always occupied. This is in no way a fault of Blink in any way because they can't do crowd control but I in good conscience can't recommend this gym to anyone considering the very short time frame you have to get a decent workout going before hordes of people pack the place. Fortunately I am a Green Card Member of Blink so I can go to any location in the city and there are several other better places than this location.

This should be a 2.5 star review but Yelp doesn't allow fractions. Let's get the cons out of the way: - During peak hours this place gets packed. Expect to be very flexible about what you work on. Benches booked? Look for something else. Popular weights (looking at you 25 lb dumbbells) will disappear for long stretches. You'll also do better if you don't mind being social and asking folks to work in with them. - Machines fall into disrepair here and are then left in unusable shape for sometime. They aren't labeled as broken either so you may find yourself climbing on a treadmill that looks like it works (the lights are on) before realizing you've been played with (it beeps when you press the keys but just won't start). - Folks are friendly here but terrible about picking up after themselves. The lady who runs this place complains sometimes but when she isn't there the staff at the front desk won't get off their ass and enforce the rules. Late in the day weights will be strewn all over the floor in large, dangerous piles. Note to manager: When you aren't there, the front desk staff watch soccer games, surf the internet and generally rest. - The locker rooms and shower (that is singular, not a typo) are dirty and depressing. I wouldn't take my shoes off here. Go home and shower there. - The music is fine, fairly generic dance and Latin mixes - but it's often way too loud. If you bring your own iPod you will still hear the gym music mixed in with your tunes. Generally the result is unsatisfying. Now there are some significant pros, but you have to understand what this place is for and what pleasures it has to offer: - Cheap. I just paid $199 to renew for the year. That's a lot of your money that Equinox didn't manage to steal. Invest your savings wisely. - While I would love to see more women here (it's about 80% male), it's a great crowd. Men of all sexualities working out and chatting. Multiethnic, though mostly Latino. You'll hear many languages here (some Mandarin, some Hindi, mostly Spanish). This is a place that feels of and by the neighborhood. Some inelegant reviewer objected to Spanish being spoken around her. Not sure what to say to that except: Welcome to New York City. (Also, to that same inelegant reviewer: everyone speaks English here, they just don't always choose to). - The Dominican lady who runs this place is welcoming and funny and irreverent. Get to know her. She'll make you laugh. - Folks come here to workout, sweat and then leave. If you're looking for a place to look pretty or preen you will be unhappy. - There is no AC in the summer. Yes, I am listing this in the pro column. If you have spent all your life in North American suburbs this might not be the gym for you. You may not realize that the human body can function without AC. But those of us from other places and with other biographies can adjust easily to a place that keeps the windows open and cranks up the fans. You have a body. It sweats. This is what being alive feels like.
