Fhitting Room

Great work out, with excellent trainers. Dennys, Riley and Dale are attentive, friendly and incredibly knowledgeable. Highly recommend.

I will not be going back to this gym after this morning’s experience. I was 5 minutes late and they did not let me take the class. They said they have a policy where you can’t join the class late, however, this is not written anywhere nor was it ever stated to me. I’ve seen people join the class late numerous times and it was fine. The people at the front desk are rude and condescending!

I loved Pierre's HIIT class here! The class was very hard even though I work out almost every day, but he was really motivating and it seemed everyone was having a great time during his class. The front staff was very friendly. Their locker, equipment and others were clean and neat. I will definitely come back :)

I took my first class through a ClassPass trial I had at the Fhtting Room Upper West Side. The front desk folks who were there helped me check in, explained all the facilities, and I have to say I was very impressed! It is very hars to find a gym that has both a sufficient workout space, but also amenities that people on the go can utilize like clean and comfortable showers, restrooms, lockers et cetera... I knew found my gym! Dale the instructor was great encouraging, and didn't come off as cheesy or robotic (which sometimes happens at places like these). My class pass trial ends today and since I enjoyed working out at the fhitting room so much I figured I would just buy a monthly unlimited membership outright at the end of my 11 AM session today. Unfortunately, as I was en route to an 11:00 a.m. class today when I arrived at 11:03 (I know this because I parked my car at 10:59 AM and have the parking reciept to show it) I was told I could not enter the class because "they had just finished the warm up" and they have a very strict policy on if you finish the warm up you're not able to enter. I understand a policy is a policy but (1) it was one I was not aware of, and (2) moreover there's a certain sense of professionalism that comes in running a business like this where grace and leniency around these policies are expected and often considered. Sure if I showed up at 11:05 and people were well into the circuit with their weights I would have understood...If I showed up at 11:10 that's entirely too late to expect to jump right into a workout class... but for someone like me who comes all the way from Washington Heights to attend a class on the Upper West side, it is beyond a mild inconvenience to be told after driving for nearly 40 minutes in traffic, finding parking, paying for parking, over extending myself to ensure that I am able to attend this class and entering just a short few minutes too late that I simply cannot attend because of because "we would get into toeubke if we let you in". I come all the way from Washington Heights to take this class so to say that is an easy journey via car, metro, uber, or bus is not easy. Just for fun, I checked, an Uber to get to the class today wouldve cost me $37. After pleading and explaining my situation a bit more to no avail the 2 teenagers who worked the front desk, they still refused to let me in. I very politely explained to them that I was fully ready and committed to purchasing my unlimited membership today because I enjoyed working out so much. As concerned as they may be about getting in trouble for letting a customer in late, the bigger concern should be on how that customer responds to an issue of this. YOU'VE NOW LOST A CUSTOMER! It never ceases to amaze me how in a city full of workout options these studios can let patrons go so easily... Tangentially, I will never forgive the pandemic for closing what was my favorite workout studio in the city. They had a very forgiving tardiness policy, fantastic instructors, and a reasonably priced unlimited monthly membership. Based on other reviews I'm sure this facility will be just fine but it's a strong no for me. Time is valuable commodity on both ends of this transaction and for me I don't have the time, energy, or money to worry about an incident like this happening again. On to the next overpriced HIIT style studio I go!
