The W 92nd street location isn't the fanciest one and doesn't have amenities that some other locations have such as a pool or rooftop, but it's my favorite branch. Why? The staff! They are so kind and helpful. The personal trainers will meet you where you are at and listen to what your goals are before helping you build a routine. The equipment is top of the line and they have a great variety of classes. I look forward to Pilates Rise every week. The locker room is full of bespoke products and a steam room to wind down after your workout. The little shop and juice bar are great. It's the cleanest gym I've ever been to.

I started out with them on class pass, but enjoyed the workouts so much, that I bought classes separately (which I NEVER did). It also helped that they used to have yelp or gilt deals.

The hotel I stayed at had an inoperable gym due to construction, so I got day passes to this place during my stay. I don't really have any complaints. The layout of the gym was interesting, but it's New York, so maybe this is how gyms are out here. I had no problem finding working treadmills, and I appreciate that they were facing the windows to keep me stimulated during mundane treadmill runs. The workers were kind. No complaints there. I will say I absolutely hated the bathroom. Outside of that, it did what it needed to do.

I saw there's been some poor reviews recently for this location, but my experience has been pretty…read morepositive. Admittedly I only go there when I'm in town from time to time, and only use it for working out using weights, so I have no experience with classes or trainers. Given the relatively small space, I feel the variety of equipments suits my needs very well, and they are by and large in good working order. Sometimes I had to wait a bit for my turn to use an equipment, but usually it's not a problem. The place is clean enough, and people tend to be there for workout not socializing. Certain areas are roped off unless you speak to a trainer/staff so that's probably what put some people off, although gyms in the suburbs often have large classrooms locked except for specific classes, so it's not unusual practice. Location is convenient for me. Hours could be more flexible but I am OK with it.

I go only when I am so short on time that I am forced to go close to my place. Issues? Management is powerless to change a thing, and corporate ignores all Communication. This gym was wonderful (with one exception) before renovation; then they ruined it. In a location that used to, and should, have thrice as many, 73d shockingly installed FIVE--total FIVE--ellipticals, and even fewer stair mills. No variety in cardio: use treadmill instead of Central Park (boring), ride a bike (only THREE), climb stairs (almost always taken), or fight to get one of the four functioning ellipticals that are, by the way, all the same variety. To all those considering this gym, I say Buyer Beware!

While doing so, another member approached me and made inappropriate comments, saying, "I won't tell if you won't tell." she repeated this a few time She went on to imply that people often walk in and take items without permission and suggested I should go to a gym closer to my home. I explained that I live in Brooklyn and do not have a gym in my area. She then insisted on walking me to the locker room. A few minutes later, this same member entered the locker room and questioned whether I intended to work out there. This interaction left me feeling uncomfortable, judged, and unwelcome. Shortly after, a male employee approached me regarding a complaint about people "laughing and screaming." I wasn't aware that speaking or expressing joy at the gym was against the rules, and I strongly suspect the complaint was made by the same member who confronted me earlier. This entire experience has left me feeling unfairly targeted and profiled. As someone who chose NYC Sports Club for its reputation and accessibility, this incident was both disheartening and unacceptable. Everyone deserves to feel welcome and respected in a gym environment, and my experience today fell far short of those expectations.
