Trash blink with all the dumbbells all over the place, people donβt put their weights back/hog 3 different dumbbell weight sets, warm up area is small, and the lack of machines.
Went to other blink locations and never had an issue with dumbbells being all over the place and impossible to find

The staff members are great, and the equipment selection is pretty diverse. A second Smith machine would be really great, because there's always a line behind it.
But the members need to do better. I have been everything from shocked, amazed, confused, to downright horrified by the things I see people doing. Pieces of used Band-Aid, chewing gum, napkins, and soap wrappers In the showers - and that's at like 6 in the morning. Discarded underwear in the locker room floor - what are we doing bro? Cup holders are always stacked with used paper towels and sometimes chewed gum, used paper towels and tiny dumbbells in the weight stacks, on top of the equipment, on the seats, on the floor - basically, if a surface exists inside the gym, there is some member out there who will take it as a personal challenge to put their sweaty paper towel or the tiniest little dumbbell on there, like some kind of primal marking of territory. At this point, I'm not even phased when I see somebody on the treadmill arguing with imaginary demons at the top of their lungs.
Even though I see gym staff cleaning every few minutes, it is humanly impossible for like 3 people to keep up with a duplex hall full of grown adults acting like toddlers. We're all grown ups here, and you're the one who benefits from keeping your own gym clean. It's not that hard to just walk 5 ft to the nearest trash can to throw your stuff out. Speaking of toddlers, this is not your own room, you can't just take off your sweatpants and throw them on the equipment and go about your business. The lockers are right there, and they're never all taken.
Huge respect to the staff members, especially the cleaning staff and the front desk associates, for dealing with this on a daily basis, and still being super friendly and respectful. I'm in there for like 2 hours a day and I carry that trauma with me everywhere I go.
