Fine for cardio, but if you want to do anything else (weights, machines, etc) you’re going to have to wait a long time. Always packed no matter what time of day, with people hogging multiple machines at once. And the bathrooms are always super dirty! This location costs more than a standard Blink, but isn’t worth the price.

The location, atmosphere, and energy appeals to me. Everyone appears focus on their exercises, routines, and the results of theirprogress, i.e., the pump or overall physique.Plus, the Winter Village Festival is dope!

Never leave any money in the locker. They clipped my lock and stole cash from my wallet. I felt so violated! I am never coming back here again!

In this gym on Friday, November 3, while I was training, they robbed in the bathrooms. I was one of those affected, they broke my lock and opened my backpack. They took out my cash, which was an important amount for me. All this happened while we were training and no one could realize what was happening, today I go to the gym to know how it was going to be solved and they simply tell me that the case is still in the police which is fine and that they would not be responsible for what happened to me since it was cash and that I simply lost it that I could not trust the gym to have my things and that way it changed it could happen to me again and no one and no one can do anything the Response from the gym manager.

My goal is to visit as many Blink gyms in NYC. Location: downstairs Elevator: yes Convenience: a block away from Bryant Park. close to virtually every train at Times Sq and Bryant Park. 42nd st Gym Size: medium size vs other Blinks. downstairs (like a basement gym). Square shaped layout. 1 level. Locker Room Size (Men's): on the larger side Equipment (outside of the basics mentioned below): battle ropes, plyo boxes. Doesn't have a lot of specialized equipment like other Blinks (heavy kettlebells, sandbags, TRX) Crowdedness: On the busier side given its location I was told by staff its busiest time is lunch time between 12-2pm and then picks up again after work. Saturdays are manageable. Cleanliness: average Staff Friendliness: Good. Smiling. Hours: 6 days/wk. Closed on Sundays. Closed early on Sat 5pm Overall: one of the busier Blinks I have been to given its location. Also the Blink close to Penn Station is no longer open. Note there is a Blink near Grand Central which could alleviate the crowd. Basement gym with no windows. Large stretch area. Crowd seems to be office workers and blue collar workers. Also see food delivery people taking a shower and bathroom break. An average sized gym which benefits most from its location but very crowded on weekdays and lack of specialized equipment. *Unless noted, assume all Blink gyms have locker rooms, water fountain, stretch area, dumbbells, kettlebells (up to 50lbs), smith machines, weight machines, cardio equipment (Rower, treadmills, ellipticals, bikes, stairclimber), showers, wipes, Towel machine (pay separate charge). Assume you can scan in via App or Apple Wallet/Watch **Note: I am a Blink user with entry possibility of all their NYC area gyms via an Add-on to my Classpass membership. (I did not want to deal with Blink corporate in case I needed to cancel and wanted to avoid a startup fee or annual charge). I do not take showers at the gym and tend to go off-peak hours.

I use several Blink locations. While not perfect I find them consistently clean, with friendly members and staff. My main objection is the crowding, I might have to wait for my equipment. Sometimes equipment is broken and not fixed for a while. But, unlike other gyms, it is the culture here for members to wipe down their machine after use.

Be careful ladies letting your man go to this particular gym there is various female employees trying and have slept with your husband including blinks female manager she's sleeping with a married man with multiple kids and seeing him on the property of her job. Have fun with that yeast infection.

I was in the city so I decided to try a free trial day since I have never been to any Blink before. The gym itself seems to be underground since you have to go down a flight of stairs to get to the actual gym. The free trial sign up was a bit frustrating since the kiosks were not working properly. The locker rooms were a bit dirty along with the bathrooms. The gym itself could have better cleanliness. There are a good variety of machines but it was disappointing to find out they didn't have a hack squat machine. Will not be returning.

After years of going to more than one Blink location (couldn't afford better), I can tell you it is pretty bad. I have had my things stolen multiple times, management never even tried to look like they cared. Cameras are non-existent. This place is like an open public square. If you are a big dude who knows how to growl the others in the gym out of your way, you'll feel at home.

Manager kicked my friend out cuz he didn’t have shoes and was wearing Adidas slides? I’ve had memeberships from many gyms ranging from Planet Fitness, LA, NYSC, Xsport and Lifetime and I’ve seen slides worn at all these locations. She wouldn’t let him slide for the day, even tho he told her he’d bring kicks next time, It’s not that serious. If this is blink’s policy then should be known verbally, otherwise it’s definitely not worth the price they charge for a membership if the goal is dress code and not a commitment to health. Workers were chill tho, y’all not the problem

My son and I were visiting NYC but wanted to get a workout in whilst on holiday. Loved this place. Day pass cost of $15 was reasonable. Great range of equipment. Thanks!

They need to turn on the AC! This is the second time this week that it feels like a sauna. Is this their tactics to keep customers away cause it’s definitely working.

They rob you. How?In changing terms and fees of the cancellation.When I started going there I understood that I have to go for a year and then nothing will be autorenewed. But I was wrong.Not only I was charged for the 13th month, annual fee, but when I came to inquire I have to pay another 22$ to cancel.It was June. I didn’t pay the first time. But when I came back same June the amount became 2,5 higher - 56$.And when I was asked about the refund of annual fee I was told that they don’t do that!So 150$ were waste to stop blink membership that is 35$ per month.Not recommended! As they are NOT honest.

I experienced incredibly unprofessional service and damage to my personal property at this location tonight. The manager Yami has incredibly poor communication skills a bad attitude and an unwillingess to diligently serve customers. After promising to wait 15 min after closing she cut my lock anyway and refused me entry to the gym.After speaking to her personally on the phone and asking if they could wait 15 minutes after closing so I could get my things Yami agreed to wait.I arrived at 10:09, knocked and called multiple times yet no one answered. I also called multiple locations to see if they could reach the gym.After 30 minutes staff came up the stairs and I asked to get my things. Yami refused me entry saying that they had cut the lock and that I could not get them until the next day despite ensuring that they could stay open so I could retrieve my items, not answering the phone when I called multiple times, and not answering when I knocked on the door which can be seen from the security camera.I would like to cancel my membership and receive a refund for the month in the amount of $40.00 a refund for the damaged lock $15 and compensation for the dishonesty and negligence of the management and customer service team at the Bryant Park New York Location.
