Far as the cleaning crew and PTs go, they're superb. They're super positive and uplifting. That being said, there are two members of the front desk staff who have made It such an uncomfortable experience just to check in here that I regret paying the roughly four thousand dollars for an annual membership. Lexi, in particular was very rude to me today. I asked her to store a hula-hoop I had carried with me to the gym and she just looked at me up and down.

Consumers could really use a public rating system for instructors so we can just steer clear of the sour apples. If you are reading this Equinox, happy to give more details but I tried to use exactly the right words to describe the two approaches. The rating would be improved to a 3 or 4 if this issue were fixed (consistently better... read full review
