- CECaroline Edelheit4 days ago5.0Awesome experience! My family visits NY and works out here every year. Very friendly staff and clean facility
- DRDestiney RuffinNov 13, 20255.0I came from the city looking for a good gym I came here and the experience Brian is the best the classes are very fun entertaining and they have good prices and they have a wonderful sauna
- AVAlex VelezNov 12, 20251.0A young man gave my partner and I a tour of the facility and completely ignored me. It was odd at first, we figured he was shy but my partner and I noticed it with time. He would avoid eye contact with me and never spoke to me directly, only my partner. He gave his attention entirely to my partner and only spoke to me when I had a question but would speak his answer to my partner instead of me. As we finish our tour , he tells us he’s going to show us another area (the locker rooms but he didn’t specify). I wasn’t allowed to follow but he never told me this and just told us to follow him. I didn’t realize I was doing anything wrong until I had a couple of employees yell at me to stay out of that area. My partner is a wonderful man because once we left Best Fitness he told me right away that was not the gym for us because of the unwelcoming, socially awkward, and possibly sexist employees. This is not a safe place for the community. * After reading all of these bad reviews and the cold , heartless responses from the owner/employees of Best Fitness - I’m so happy I decided not to join this gym. 100$ Cancellation Fee?Dirty/Broken Machines? Lazy, unreliable workers that only stand around? Nope!
- HSHassan ShamsNov 3, 20251.0The staff are pushy salespeople. They just want your business. Told me my son couldn’t work out there when I wanted to try it out. I believe they don’t have any squat racks. I went to Albany Strength from there.
- CVCharles VinuezaNov 2, 20255.0The gym is clean and very fairly priced for what it offers. Just wish the dumbbell selection under 25 pounds was larger and the barbell/cable attachments were replaced more often when they showed signs of wear/damage
