I have been going here for years. This is a gym that also has a bar. There is also a swimming pool. It's very clean. There is a nice cardio room. They converted many racquetball courts over the years to gym machines. The still have a racquetball court. The bar area is a hidden gem. It's a great place to have functions like holiday parties and birthdays but you need to bring your own food.. therevis a dance floor. They have plenty of tvs to watch sports. They also have keno.its a great spot to hang out and have a drink after having a nice workout. The owners are great people.

They are too expensive to begin with. Plus, unprofessional staff.

At $109 and up per month (for month-to-month), WF is at the top of the regional market pricewise and, having been a member for a year now, increasingly I have felt that the value is not there.The equipment is serviceable, although there are some serious 'bottlenecks,' e.g. one set of fly cables in the entire facility, only one quality set of battle ropes (in a class studio, so usually inaccessible), one public sled often used by PT, which can derail workouts. Furthermore, a huge portion of the downstairs workout sections have been allocated to classes/PT. I understand the need to raise revenue, but this comes at the expense of the baseline experience which, at $109+/month, should feel like more than an afterthought. For gym users who just want to get in, get through your sets, and get out, I can't recommend WF in light of the amount of the dues.Lastly, for my month-to-month membership, WF collected last month's dues at sign-up. I have submitted my cancellation, but now I have access to the facility for an additional month, which I neither want nor need. I should have pushed back on this when I first signed up...be forewarned of this practice.Edit: WF’s response highlights the facility’s focus on all users other than those who wish to get in, get through their sets, and get out (i.e. do not need classes/PT). Which is fine! No facility can be everything to everyone; in my case, it was not a fit. I stand by my critiques of equipment bottlenecks at WF. Working people, at least, are not able to access the boot camp studio during the majority of the day, as they are working during the majority of the day (during the workweek). I made no accusation of lack of transparency regarding collection of last month’s dues at sign-up, but it is an ill-advised business practice as it encourages members who are ready to move on and have submitted their cancellation to continue utilizing the facility as the last month’s dues have already been collected. I maintain that I should have pushed back on this practice when I signed up, and I encourage potential members to do so, to avoid this awkward situation.
