Review content:
I have been a member of the 23 St location for nearly five years and the only reason I stay is that my gym buddy loves the yoga trainers and won't go elsewhere. The classes and trainers are very good, the layout of equipment is generous and the equipment is maintained but the class space and stretching area are way too small for a gym this size. The people are pretty and there are a few celebrities like Anderson Cooper as regulars but that is likely because Barton gives discounts to members of Actor's Equity and SAG among others. Once, the creepy Mr Barton had me sited for wearing shorts that were TOO short (running shorts) which was ludicrous, not only because of his own appearance, but also because I have seen guys wearing swimming trunks on the workout floor. I brushed it off to avoid a confrontation and because Mr Barton isn't here often. The deal breaker for me is that in all this time, there has never been sufficient (sometimes none at all) air conditioning in the men's locker room. I have complained and been given ""blah,blah,blah..... give us a few days; blah,blah,blah...it is an old building "" responses but nothing changes. Leaks, lack of hot water and poor water pressure are also issues in the men's locker room. The complaint from a previous reviewer about guys doing stuff in the sauna is a joke. The gym is in the middle of Chelsea Einstein! I've seen that in Equinox and NYSC too. Twenty years ago, Chelsea was a scary neighborhood and gay people made it the IT neighborhood that is now safe for the Hummer sized baby stroller crowd. So let them have their turf. That 's not a reason to avoid this gym-it happens in all of them. But the lack of air conditioning in the locker room is inexcusable. This is a 21 century gym and I don't think expecting 20 century comforts is unreasonable.
Pros: Trainers and good looking staff/members,lots of equipment
Cons: poor air conditioning, not enough water fountains,annoying bright lighting
