New York Sports Club

I've been taking personal training sessions with Damon and he is the BEST. I am coming back from a surgery and he has been great at adjusting his circuits and exercises to meet my needs and limitations at the moment. He's also listened and customized the workouts based on general areas I wanted to focus on. I've been learning so much more about form and how the different machines in the club should be used properly. Overall incredible experience with Damon, if you're looking for an energetic training who will motivate and get you excited to workout Damon's your guy!

I am proud to be a member of the New York Sports Clubs (16th and 8th). I would first like to touch on the fact that I was a Blink member before this and the two gyms, don't compare. The front desk staff, personal trainers and custodial staff are ALL so welcoming and motivating; it's almost as if I have rapport with them. They hold me accountable for my gym attendance in the most respectful way possible. The management is also phenomenal as they let me know whenever there are promo deals and any changes in the gym that might affect my workout. The gym is very clean, the members are also very respectful and all in all, i get professional vibes from everyone. The gym offers a lot of classes, such as Yoga, spin, body pump and conditioning classes etc, which are with out a doubt, worth the price of the membership. I am so glad that I made the move from Blink to this New York Sports Clubs location and I look forward to being a member for a long time to come.

I know the membership is cheap but how does NYSC have the audacity to raise rates and have such a trash facility? It was too expensive for what it offered when it was $50 a month but now $70? The staff is lovely, friendly and kind so give them a budget to care for the facility and machines as needed. Every single treadmill the belt is loose and you feel like you're going to slip or fall, no towels, a roll of paper towels and mystery spray to wipe stuff down, several men love to have their conference calls on the elliptical and no on says anything. It feels like a group of people just decided to go on craigslist and order some machines and open a gym. In desperate need of some TLC.

You get what you pay for+ never wait for a machine+ affordable+ flexible hours- run down, and they don’t replace equipment or even essentials. Example: When I asked about replacing the broken and sole paper towel machine in mens room, they replied “mgmt doesn’t wanna pay for that anymore”- a few crazies

NYSC at 16th and 8th is disgustingly dirty. In the bathroom I see the same stains and mucus on/in the sink from one week to the next, the bathroom also reeks of urine. It’s worse than a public bathroom in a old gas station. I honestly avoid it at all cost. I come to this location a lot and I have not seen housekeeping or anyone cleaning in months. I am NOT exaggerating…The gym is consistently out of towels and disinfecting essentials. Also, sooooo many machines/equipment are broken or not working properly. Some of the treadmills can only be stopped by using the emergency brake. This gym is a nightmare.The woman that opens the gym on Saturdays is ALWAYS late, so if time is a huge factor for you, this is NOT the place for you.The only good thing about this place is most (not all, but most) of the staff are very friendly.

I LIKED THE GYM, THE FRONT DESK REPRESENTATIVE GUY WAS SUPER NICE, EXPLAINED TO ME THE BASICS AND ALLOWED MY NEPHEW AND I TO GO WORK OUT....THIS SPECIFIC NYSC, IS LOCATED IN AN INCREDIBLE AREA LIKE CHELSEA, ICE CREAM SHOPS, FOOD PLACES GALORE TO EAT, BARS A COUPLE OF INDEPENDANT CLOTHING SHOPS, DANCE THEATER, AND IT IS LOCATED A BLOCK OR 2 FROM THE A.C.E AND L TRAINS, A HOP SKIP AND JUMP FROM UNION SQUARE, GREAT LOCATION TO JUST PERUSE THE STREET....AS FOR THE ACTUAL LOCATION, THEY HAVE A LOT OF STRETCHING ROOM TO TRAIN OR HAVE CALISTHENICS, FREE WEIGHT AREA IS NICE AND SPACIOUS FOR UPPER BODY, MORE THEN ENOUGH SPACE FOR LOWER BODY AS WELL, NEVER TO CROWDED.... BECAUSE THIS IS IN THE SUB LEVEL THEIR IS NO NATURAL LIGHT, I COULDN'T REALLY FIND THE FLOOR MATS TO STRETCH, AND WHEN I DID THE CLEANING SOLUTION WAS ALL COMPLETELY EMPTY... THE TREADMILL AREA FELT A LITTLE CLUTTERED BUT WHAT EVER RIGHT IT WAS NOT CROWDED SO I WAS GOOD.... THE BATHROOM YOU NEED MORE PEOPLE ON MAINTENANCE THE BATHROOM HORRIBLE, THE SHOWERS NEED A POWER WASH ,THE LOCKER ROOM IT SELF I ACTUALLY LOVED HOW BIG IT WAS AND IT WAS FAIRLY CLEAN, SO HONESTLY, NOTHING IS PERFECT BUT I STILL WOULD COME BACK TO THIS GYM , THEY JUST NEED MINOR ADJUSTMENTS...

Great gym love the vibe, the workers the are amazing would deff tell people to come to new york sport club instead of planet fitness the club is way better facts of life

The place is immaculate clean. I am happy to be able to use the facility after been unable to exercise for a 9 months

old equipment, overpriced, impossible to cancel. The good reviews recently are clearly faked. Also, they will harass you constantly about rejoining their terrible gym.

A very small version of New York sports Clubs. Front desk person was not the least bit friendly. Bikes were very good. I would never go back here.
