It's an o.k. place once you figure out a loophole
This gym does the job for me. If you go during the day (like from morning 'till about 3) there's not that many people there. That's when I go, it's really the best time to be there. BUT if you can only go in the evenings... FORGET ABOUT IT! It's packed! Sometimes I think I should call the fire department and find out if that many people are even aloud to be in there all together. PLUS, if you're a cute young girl like me... get ready to be stared at. It's sort of a creepy crowd.
ALTHOUGH, they have really awesome classes there. I would recommend the yoga and the hi/low classes. Those are the only classes I've tried so far and I think they're awesome. If you can only go in the evenings it's WORTH getting the membership just to attend these classes. The instructors know what they're doing, and the staff in general are really nice and helpful.
Also, it's not smelly. I don't know what those other reviewers are talking about. I'm a clean/germ freak and the conditions there are bearable enough.
