No complaints on this place too much. With the shower soap was refilled but I’ll just bring my own for future. Not the biggest whoop. Nice people. Massage chairs are amazing (shhhh). Good vibes here and I drive 10 minutes out of my way to go here. Beats north Arlington and their amenities.

It’s convenient for me, There’s alot of selection when it comes to choosing machines. I also think it would be nice when gym members walk through the door there greeted with a good morning/afternoon ….. upon leaving “ I hope you had a great workout see you tomorrow “ I’ve never been greeted since I started my membership, there’s always someone on their phones The little things matter, I also notice there’s a gentleman who’s always cleaning and keeping the facility clean, not to mention very pleasant individual. Overall it’s a decent Gym. 💕

Great staff,great equipment, and 1 of the best personal trainers in our area,his name is Daren.. seek him out if you are looking for a personal trainer who not only knows everything about training,nutrition and discipline, but he is a man of integrity and compassion.

I have to laugh at Eric Rubin's review below LOL! Dude, you're at a GYM not a doctor's office. The dude is concerned about other people not being vaccinated, which has nothing to do with the establishment, also with getting covid and dying. Then why go to a public gym ??? And gym bros? Really? What do you expect at a gym? Go work out at home. People are nuts.Anyways, I love this gym. It's small but extremely practical --you have everything you need in here. Doesn't get too crowded compared to other gyms like LA fitness (good lord, it's like sardine nation there) but of course during prime time 5-7PM it can be a bit crowded like any other gym. It's cleaned thoroughly from my observation, staff is nice, and trainers are knowledgeable. Reviews about dumbbells not being put back, I mean seriously that's not a staff issue, that's a humanity issue. In any gym, you'll have people that don't know gym etiquette. I've watched staff put weights back where they belong. They recently renovated, which shows effort in keeping it going and when a machine breaks down, they do what they can to get it fixed or get a new one promptly. Great gym

Place is a good, basic gym. If you're looking for juniper scented cool towels and lulu sold in the front shop, you know where to go. But Retro is always dependable, clean, and machines are almost always in working order (or fixed fairly quickly). Anyone giving low reviews for an annual fee or having to go in person to cancel - that is literally every chain gym in existence.
