    Popped into Equinox during a visit home for the holidays and here's how my experience went, Parking: Lots of parking available in the lot on a Tuesday midday. I can definitely see it being more of an issue during peak hours. No street parking to my knowledge. Front Desk Staff: There were two front desk attendants there when I arrived. One person helped me fill out a guest pass and then told me I was good. I was expecting a tour of the facility or at least guidance on where to go but the guy quickly went back to doing whatever else he was doing. Gym Floor: Whhhoooo... this place is tiny. When I figured my way around I realized that this is probably why the front desk staff didn't give me a tour or any guidance. Once you walk back it's just a big open floor plan and one floor.The place felt very full on a Tuesday afternoon around 1 so I couldn't even imagine what it's like during peak hours. There were about 6 trainers on the floor working with clients and doing pretty cool programs with them. Some of the equipment that they offer is.. (& forgive me if I forgot something I'm going off my memory), * 2 squat racks * 1 smith machine *small stretch area * about 10 benches maybe in the free weight section * group fitness studio (average size) * additional group fitness studio (tiny bit smaller) * pilates reformer studio * cardio section with lots of treads, elliptical, stair climber, bikes. Not sure if I saw one of the curved treads but yea * weight machines * cable cross setup with a good amount of extensions (tricep dip etc.) Locker Room: Typical Equinox facility decked out with all the great little amenities you could need (qtips, tampons, hair ties, lotion, etc). Everything was very clean and organized. Big ups to the housekeeping staff they're doing amazing. Group Fitness Class: I took their Mat Pilates class at 10:30 am. The class was held in their lower intensity studio room which also hosts classes like yoga and barre. We were let into the studio around 10:25 am after the maintenance crew were done cleaning and setting up. All the mats had mat towels on them and a sweat towel too. The instructor wasn't very friendly in my opinion and only really interacted with her regulars. The movements were great though and well balanced. I enjoyed the class but just felt weird the entire time, not a very welcoming space. I've been to a number of Equinox's in LA, OC, DC, and now here in New Jersey and this was by far my least favorite. Everyone felt very stuck up :( Beautiful and clean facility to be expected with Equinox though.

    Dirty towels all over the workout area

    Nice location, nice equipment. Very cool that there is a saltwater pool. However, it could definitely be cleaner. (Cleanness is the reason I've stuck with Equinox despite the constantly-increasing costs.) I usually work out at the NY locations so may be generalizing too much for one visit but I've never seen this anywhere in a NYC Equinox. (These towels lay here during my entire workout and were still laying around when I left. Just doesn't feel like a "luxury gym.")

    Came here with a friend on a three day pass from my company As someone that's used to college gyms, this was quite the step up. There were personal trainers milling about, a large weight room and cardio area, pool, well maintained lockers, and an abundance of eucalyptus towels. There's also a juice bar area and a store that I never got to check out. In terms of weights and equipment, there's definitely a wide enough variety that it will cover most people's workout regimes. I personally use a variety of machines and different weight racks, and I never had to wait too long to use them. As for the pool, it was designed for two people to take laps, but I also never had to wait for to use it despite the limited amount of lanes. The shower and locker rooms also were stocked with Kiehl's products, which was definitely a welcome site. Based off my experience with Equinox, this gym definitely caters to people that are into a luxurious exercise experience. I would probably consider signing up for an Equinox in the future (Once I make more $$ haha).

    Typical late-afternoon workout. Two squat racks, barbell, bench press, and misc. equipment all racked and abandoned. Stayed 1-1/2 hours.

    I was a member here a few years back, and eventually had to cancel my membership due to frustration with a lack of management. The biggest issue is the gym is simply small. It is one floor, roughly 1:1 cardio and weights, and a small "stretch/abs" area that comfortable fits a handful of members at one time. As for the actual weight equipment, it's limited. There's mostly just one each of the bare-minimum gym essentials (bench press, squat rack, smith, etc...), save for two squat racks, bench presses, and cable stations. Two sets of each weight roughly up to 110 lbs. There's nothing notable equipment-wise, nothing making a membership any more than $50/mo justifiable. However, we're talking ~$150 monthly minimum for membership. The gym has limited equipment at best. The problem then is that you are often competing with trainers for equipment. Usually wouldn't be a problem, but trainers often multi-set and occupy equipment for their entire hour training session. You're generally left sitting and waiting for equipment you need, especially on a squat rack or cable station. If you try to work-in, the trainers can give you a hard time. They also often abandon their equipment when they're done and don't clean up. This becomes a safety hazard when there's a lot of equipment left around to trip over. I've brought this up to management during my membership, and was met with a "yes" man, but the issue persisted. Despite these frustrations, I've checked back in on guest passes frequently over the years with the intention on returning as a member. In my experience, though, the issues seem worse than ever. The positives should be mentioned, though the cons vastly outweigh the good: the facility is gorgeous, and clean. The cleaning staff is the best.

    Cancellation confirmation then kept charging me  7000$ since 2017 shame on you hiding behind company not going to work

    Transferred from the Hollywood equinox and its definitely a smaller gym but it has all the reasons I joined equinox , more space , pool, classes . Don't worry, there are still eucalyptus towels. Well maintained and connected to a physical therapy gym, so can watch people rehab from injuries. Lockers currently need to bring own lock. Not the modern autosave lockers.

    I'm only giving this place one star because it's clean. Other than being clean this place is terrible!!! I was very excited to workout but once I started I quickly realized how depressing this place is. This place is good for old people who need some personal training. There's barely any equipment and the equipment they have is in terrible condition as I have illustrated in the video and photos. All the benches shake so it's very dangerous to use them. Almost dropped a dumbbell on myself because the whole bench shifted to one side, so I stopped doing the exercise. Why would I pay 160$ a month plus 300$ to sign up when I'm not even able to do my workout because there's no equipment and the equipment that they have is in terrible condition. Avoid this place it's not worth what they are charging!!! Update contacted equinox in response to my review as they have asked, but no reply!!

    Equinox isn't for everyone as it's expensive and whether it's worth the money for you is an individual decision. This location is similar to others in that it's scrupulously clean and well maintained. It's not opulent but is it very consistent, which I value. There's always someone hovering in the changing rooms cleaning something, which to me is very welcome. The gym equipment, lockers, showers and similar are always in good working order and very clean. It's not usually very busy, parking is easy, and the pool is very pleasant as well. For this makes it much easier to pickup the motivation to stop by and get a work-out in during my day. I alternate between this club and the NYC ones with an 'All-Access membership for quite a lot of money, but I feel is worth it as I feel it's so easy to go. You can certainly work out for less but I got fed up of crammed gyms where equipment didn't work, lockers were often broken or were dirty with grimy showers - and there's none of that here. On the downside, I find the hours at Summit very limiting, and especially for the price. Closing at 8pm in the evening when the pool closes 1/2 an hour before at 7.30pm (does it really need to be 1/2 an hour?) seems very early, and on weekends it's 5pm. I don't usually finish work until 6pm, as I think is common in many jobs, and then it's scramble to get there when I go. For the money I wish they opened later a few nights a week.

    I struggled this evening with posting about one of the lamest massages I've had in my life…read more Struggle over. I worried that a business struggles to make it in this economy. I worried that perhaps the "therapist" just had an off day. Then it hit me. Who's going to worry about new customers coming here and shelling out $150 for an hour's worth of mediocre tepid substandard whatever this was? I will. What about my endless long work hours that would shock most people, coming to this place for a decent massage to relieve the bad body effects of extreme overwork but walking out with zero effect? I'll worry. Not one knot found, much less kneaded out. Zero reflexology. Faking it over and over. She started off telling me - not asking me, but telling that she doesn't talk "because she listens to the body." Guess her hands were deaf. I've gotten massages for decades here in the U.S. as well as other free countries. This wasn't just a below average massage - the only massage worse than this was a masseuse in her 70's down South that after just running her hands tepidly over my skin here and there, she left after she tried selling me a Bible. They're so charming down there I couldn't get mad. And I had never returned to Bennesere until today. My prior visit, I was subjugated and subjected to -and I'm not kidding you: an hour of unwanted Russian propaganda talking points. You think I'm kidding? I'm not. That massage wasn't great either and I wasn't buying "Ukraine had it coming". So i struggled tonight with whether or not I should just write privately to them but I don't want a third wasted hour offered. It's clear they don't hire quality masseuses. It's clear they don't vet or train these people. And for $150, I don't just expect competence: I deserve it. Never again.

A few of my girlfriends tried the BSK location, then some of my daughter's friends moms wanted to try as well. We came 15mins before class (as advised) so we can get a tour of place and how things run before taking class. They have bathrooms (with a shower) coat racks and lockers to place your belongings while in class. The staff and coaches were very friendly! We've had the pleasure of taking almost all the coaches and every class is different, every coach style is unique but they give you the individualized attention and motivation you need during class. The first class was an intense workout but I ended up taking advantage of their first month $99 promotion and plan on continuing. I love the way I feel especially after each class knowing that I was able to accomplish it, from the "assault" bike to the ski mill, ski erg to the erg rowing machine. I live for the community - the camaraderie feel. It gives me the Orange Theory meets CrossFit vibe. 100% give it a try, you will feel as if they rocked your world after the class but I can guarantee you- you will be back.

I was supposed to have a 50 minute tranquil stone massage, gifted by my children. I received at most 20 minutes of hands on massage...that was it! Apparently my masseuse was injured therefore it appeared that it was most difficult for her to deliver my service. (Mind you, the assistant manager had offered me a male masseuse prior to my service but since I am more comfortable with females I declined...I should have picked up on that) At the conclusion I spoke at length with the asst manager regarding my dissatisfaction. She offered to take some money off my bill (but it was a gift card so it didn't have any effect) and told me the GM (Sheila) would be contacting me and she would be able to compensate me more. I believe that I should have been given the opportunity to reschedule the service I had hoped for but she assured me the GM would make things right once she contacted me the following day. After waiting all day for a call, I called them. I was told they were very busy but that Sheila had received a very thorough email regarding my situation and she would be contacting me asap. 3 days later after no call, followed up with an email. No response. It is now another 6 days later and I have not received a word from anyone at Woodhouse Spa. Unfortunately they have lost me as a customer and I have made sure all my family and friends have heard about this very poor customer service. What a shame.
