Blink Fitness Grand Central

First review of the New Year. I must've lucked out because I came here on a Saturday and the place was only half full. Not too shabby for the weekend. As for this place, it is deceptively larger than it seems. Coming inside, you might think this location is a bit on the small side but the stairway leading to the basement area gym is actually in the middle of the gym so there is another section coming around behind the stairs. I was expecting this place to get swamped but there wasn't a lot of traffic so getting to machines were easy with no waiting time. It's not enough for a 5 star though because I can easily see this place being packed during peak hours and the staff were basically nonexistent. Yeah it was easy going today but they could be more attentive and welcoming. Other than that, this is a good place to go if you can imagine to avoid any crowding.

I didn't plan on going to this location, but I ended up having an amazing workout last Saturday. It's actually easier to travel here than the gym near my apartment. And I heard there's a great trainer there too. The gym was giving quality, comfortable, clean, lowkey—not crowded, spacious, and the customer service was on point.

So nearly 4 years later after having to leave New York City because of an emergency and not being able to cancel over the phone or online, these scammers sick their collection agency on me calling all times of night and day, over $200 fee which I had been to the gym exactly one time. Aldous and associates is the name of the collection company which if you ask, Blink will tell you is actually them. These shady con artists, I just found out by checking my credit report today, actually marked the account as PAID! And then proceeded to report "another" account of mine which was actually the very same $ amount and account, yes they double reported it to negatively affect my credit TWICE for the same bill! They are absolute crooks, and the one single time I went into grand central to workout and had the nerve to talk to the manager about getting a towel, she looked at me like I was a leper. If you read the comments, you will see how frequently they over charge or continue charging clients long after they have either settled an account, or have cancelled their membership entirely! I pretty much never write reviews, good or bad, but these people are beyond the pale. Ugly!

Great gym. Been going to this location on and off for about 4 years now. Always greeted with a smile regardless of who is at the front desk. Everything is clean. Especially due to Covid-19, I see this place constantly being sprayed and wiped down. Definitely way better than many other locations I've visited. SPECIAL SHOUT OUT TO THE HARDEST WORKING MAN IN THEIR STAFF, JOSEPH!!! The entire staff works hard but Joseph is someone you will constantly see moving around cleaning and making sure this gym is nothing short of amazing. I asked him "How is everything?" He simply and sincerely replied "I'm having fun!"

The staff is lovely, but I’ve been trying to cancelled my membership since February because I have knee problems I went into a a couple locations since emailing them didn’t work they responded once and never got back to me again. None of them were able to help me cancel my membership. Today I was finally able to speak to a manager. They told me that I would have to show them proof of my medical conditions in order to cancel my membership, but I still have to pay a fee, which is ridiculous but whatever at this point I have been charged hundreds of dollars and I only used this membership three times. I usually don’t leave a reviews, but this situation is really messed up. So please don’t get a Blink membership if you are not planning on having it for the rest of your life.
