The Scene – This storefront gym gives the misleading first impression of being a small facility with its cardio theater occupying the entire first floor. But continue up the staircase beyond the elliptical trainers and you'll find a small spinning studio and another larger room well-stocked with upper body strength-training equipment. The third floor contains aparati for legs--including a squat rack that dates back to the gym's start in 1984--and a second studio, with an impressive cerulean domed ceiling, that houses classes in yoga, Pilates and the like. (The basement is reserved for…

- Pros: short walk
- Cons: to many to list

Great Place
by motorman0 at Citysearch
This facility is very decieving to the eye. You walk in and see only a floor of cardio equipment but when you start to walk around become amazed at how big the place is. They have a wonderful staff and a very convenient towel service that makes you want to sweat. They have a very clean and tidy facility that offers wipes to wipe down equipment and also always has a fun promotion going on every once in awhile that makes it interesting. They are always updating the club with new equipment or giving it a new fresh by always adding to it. This is a private gym so you dont feel like your part of the corporate world and you can just be yourself and be apart of the family instead of the company.
- Pros: Great Staff, Large Facility, Very Clean and accomodating
- Cons: No Elevator..but it is a gym

Sneaky Gym
by miensa at Citysearch
This gym is way too cramped. A gym like this needs to have a limit instead of trying to rake in all the cash they can get. It isn't a nieghborhood friendly gym, it is one of those gyms that makes people regret ever joining a gym again. They are very friendly when you join and then something snaps when you unfortunately have to break your contract for whatever reasons. I first joined on a month to month basis, (which I recommend, if you join at all), I was going out of town every now and then for months at a time so I didn't want to sign a year contract. Well it seemed I would at last be home for a good stretch and so I relented and signed to one year. Going well and then, boom! I was called out again for 3 months. I HAD to actually show up to cancel my membership, what a pain. I told them I had to go out of town and had to release myself from the contract but that my husband and I would like to join in the future. I had three months left. They charged me the $100 fee PLUS 2 of the remaining months! I was livid. Basically I was charged more than the original contract! These people don't think about the future of their business. Only what monies they can retain now. Well we will go elsewhere, to a bigger place for the same price or less with nicer people. Thinking about the NOW instead of the future will see that they have no future. Your typical sneaky gym. WAY too crowded.
- Pros: convenient
- Cons: Just want as many people to join as possible, not friendly or accommodating in the least. Bad business policies.
