- MGMichael George1 day ago1.0All the recent changes have ruined this gym. Used to be greeted by friendly staff and now you stand inside of a claustrophobic dystopian tube just so they can save a bit of money. Why do I need to scan and stand in it again just to exit? Feels like you're in jail. The feeling of the *whole place* is weird and sad now.
- AAAnnie2 days ago1.0I was really hoping Pure taking over would mean upgrades, but so far nothing feels like an improvement — it honestly makes me miss Blink. Cardio equipment: There’s not enough of it, the ellipticals are outdated, and only a few treadmills even have working TV screens. And the strangest part: cardio is split between two floors. It makes zero sense. Put the weight machines on one floor and all the cardio on the other — simple. The worst change: the new front-door “tube” entry. You scan, wait for the capsule to open, step inside, wait again for it to close behind you… and then it opens on the other side. Everyone hates it. It creates a backup for no reason, and I honestly don’t know how this setup is even fire-code compliant. Pure, please rethink this.
- GPGeorge Poulos4 days ago2.0Look, I'm not gonna cancel my membership over it (at least I don't think so...) but the new "tube entrance" is quite strange and disturbing. I get it, they don't want to pay a staff, but as a consequence, the vibe of the entire space is a bit cold, dystopian, and "off". Aside from that, the gym has the equipment you need. But again, it's a bit... cold. If vibes of a space matter to you, I might recommend a day pass before grabbing a membership.
- SDSophie Davidson6 days ago1.0I used to tolerate Blink, but now PureGym has me finding a different gym. It’s too bad, this location and scale of building have so much promise. The weird new doors, bad paint, haphazard upgrades and lack of staff? Also, NOT safe for non-men gym goers. In truth, I wish a bigger, nicer gym bought up this property. Also, the smell is getting worse and worse…
- JCJackie ChenNov 10, 20251.0Been coming here for 3 years and I love when it used to be “blink” gym. The new company that took over “pure gym” I do not like it at all. Reason is because they increase the price by $10 and they limited guest pass to only 4 times a month which is absurd. On top of that I don’t like the dark teal color they painted all over the wall at the gym it just feels so gloomy and sad to me. The new color scheme just Kills the gym vibe for me. Also the new revolving door is just not it for me, I like how back then I could just go straight into the gym and out the gym without going through the hassle of the revolving door. BRING BACK THE OLD BLINK AND THE PRICE/BENEFITS!!!!
