I have been a member for 3+ years and I am happy with the facility. It attracts a professional busy crowd so there are not too many people just “chilling” there. There are three floors and it is a relatively spacious. It’s possible to find a quiet spot to do a workout on your own especially during less busy hours.People are complaining about price /facilities. But, relatively speaking it’s better than the YMCA and other gyms that may cost $80/ month or less. For an extra $20-30 , you get lockers that can be locked with a code ( no need to bring your own lock), cleaner, more spacious, friendly staff, pleasant, better/easier parking options, more convenient if you work or live in the area.

Don’t use the lockers here! Thieves stole my phone and wallet out of the lockers on Wednesday while working out.

This place, o my god, from the top to the bottom unprofessional, untrustworthy (major theft problem) and downright disrespectful. Bottom line, ACTIVE SPORTS CLUB, isn't worth their $105 a month price tag. Oo wait it totally is worth it if you want to get berated by the staff in the middle of your work out.

Due to the specifics of my work, I have to be in different states. I go when there is time local gyms. Yesterday I went to this gym and I really liked it ... the hall in three levels had all the conditions created, but most importantly, everything was clean .... there are no unpleasant odors in the shower room, steam room and dry sauna .

I live in NY and used their 3 day pass. Easily the best gym I've been to. The equipment they have is fantastic and the most I've seen it crowded is totally manageable.

Open space and usually not crowded. Of course it picks up around 5pm, but most of the time there’s space to workout. Unfortunately the locker room is not reflective of the high priced monthly fees. With $105/month, the place should show great maintenance and cleanliness, but there’s always something out of order, lights are out in the showers, and bathroom needs a remodel.
