I came as a guest, and from someone who's been to many many gyms from low to mid to high tier. The draw for this Lifetime is the roof deck pool, I'm not exactly 100% sure on the formalities of how you can use as a member because you may have to pay $1500 on top of membership for access, and $75 day pass if you want to use. It's an alright outdoor pool space, the service seems to be decent enough and there is enough space to sprawl out a bit. It's New York, you get what you get in terms of outdoor pools.

Now for the rest of the facilities, super cool there's a basketball court and spa services. The workout floor itself is so tiny and seems to be an afterthought. Location of the locker rooms are strange to me and hard to find with little direction so first timers can easily get lost. I wouldn't use this change personally but the outdoor roof deck pool is nice.

It’s cozy and cute but I wouldn’t say it’s the best food I’ve ever had. The pork buns were smothered in BBQ like sauce and not in a good way. The mushrooms are good but unbelievably few mushrooms. I do believe it’s a good date spot because of how small it is, but food is nothing to write home about.

A fun experience and probably the best vintage market in New York. Yes 70% is overpriced but that’s just New York. Some sellers are very cool people and know their niche. It’s an amazing way to spend your Sunday and sellers accept Venmo or card. Also, it’s great it’s year round to enjoy. I came looking for vintage fur coat and found the one! Can be quite overwhelming the first time as it’s so much to look at. My advice is to not buy the first thing you see and shop the whole market or more and think about it and come back to it as you might find what you want at a better deal or style. Apparently the sellers stall fees proceeds goes to the school that holds the indoor portion of the market which is awesome.

Honestly could be a bit “grander” for a full day of exploring a lá rose bowl in LA.

Super cozy, unpretentious spot. Reminds me of pubs in England where people just get together to chill, maybe have a pint. They only serve beer and wine which is great for the atmosphere. Lots of board games, had fun playing and taking it easy.

Amazing top notch spa. Everyone is super professional, sweet and eager to give you a relaxing experience. I had the urban escape package which included massage, scalp massage with hair mask, body exfoliating and a facial. The massage was one of the top 2 massages I’ve had. And the facial by far the most relaxing as she also provided foot reflexology which was out of this world. The spa manager is incredibly kind and makes sure you had a good experience. The pictures do not do the location justice as it’s much more beautiful in person.
