A great value for a decent gym if you’re just looking to get some movement in each week. Monthly memberships range from $15-25/month, there’s generally a special to get the first month for free and there are plans where you can bring guests. Each membership comes with a free training session, which are so reasonably priced if you sign up, something like $30-40 per session. Some coaches even let you bring your partner or friend to train with so it’s like a 2 for 1 deal.
There are plenty of cardio and strength machines and you’ll never have to wait for free weights. It is limited on squat and power racks, which are usually taken. People are generally very polite and the staff is always cleaning. This is the cleanest gym I’ve been to, it’s always spotless. As a repeat customer, I can say this is definitely a great gym if you’re on a budget and not expecting something upscale, there are ones nearby that are fancier or offer more amenities, but I always get a good workout in and have the best experience when I avoid the rush hour so machines are usually more free.

Extremely overcrowded! Doesn’t help that trainers while working using the machines. One of the trainers came up to me while I was using one of the machines and told me to go use a different machine since he had little time left before he had to leave. After reaching out to costumer service I was told that I’ll be contacted by the manager of this locations. It’s being six months and I’m yet to hear from them! I decided to cancel the membership since I’d rather go work out in the middle of the park then deal with the rude stuff there, I was charger $26 which is not that bad considering the place is a nightmare! I’d consider your options before signing up for this gym and make sure your read the terms and conditions because they will charge you cancellation fee for their stuff being inappropriate and rude!
This gym needs to clean house. It’s too overcrowded. There’s nothing but a bunch of high school guys running in packs hogging up every single gym equipment like they run the place. I can’t even find a single dumbbell because they’re all hogged by other people that are not really using it. Then you have people sitting on the benches like if they are at a park. Is this even a gym or is it just a hangout spot? These people aren’t serious, they are either texting or filming to chase clout. This is Mickey Mouse stuff. Either you train or you don’t. Someone at management really needs to do something about this. All I see is nothing but a robotic staff crew that doesn’t even look like they care. This is supposed to be a place to release stress, not to be more stressed. Another thing this place is supposed to be an 18 or older gym. I’ve observed kids that obviously look younger than 18 sabotaging equipments. Common courtesy is non existent.
This Blink is an incredible value. For the price, you get very clean and well-lit facilities, friendly staff, and good equipment. Equipment includes cardio machines, three full squat racks, many dumbbells, benches, cables, yoga mats, pull up bars, kettlebells, and more. They offer personal training, and the staff is overall helpful and friendly.
Stars because the staff is always friendly and helpful, and the gym is pretty clean.
Hours are horrendous, and its always packed. Fixing the hours so the gym is open later/earlier would make the experience here much better for people working different schedules, and can help fix the overcrowding issue too.
Several of the weight machines are broken/old and could use an update. Could use barbells and punching bag options as well
Would definitely raise to 5 stars if the hours extended (especially on weekends!). 6am-2am on most days would be great.

I’ve been a member of this gym for 18 months now going regularly 3-5 times a week at different times. I consider myself a strength trainer who focuses in compound lifting.
This is an all around just okay gym that has a couple pros and many cons.
Pros:
It is kept very clean, serious kudos to the cleaning staff.
Most of the personal trainers are great, mostly because when I talk to them they actually care about teaching form and helping you grow rather than creating terrible programs that force you to spend more money on them.
There is a fair amount of cardio equipment. Even at its most peaked hours I see spare treadmills.
Decent selection of free weights and an okay layout.
Locker rooms do the bare minimum but are effective.
Cons:
Groups of high school kids run around rough housing and breaking equipment. They never get reprimanded because they are friends with some of the workers.
When equipment breaks, which there is always at least 3 pieces broken, it takes about a month for a repair. Over the summer I waited 9 weeks for the rear delt machine to get fixed. I laughed when a treadmill was placed in German / kilometers and it took about a month to find out how to fix it.
Most of the carabiners for the cables are broken or just missing all together.
There are only 2 dedicated bench press seats which means you will often have to wait 20 minutes to get to them.
Because there is so much cardio equipment spread out the strength areas are compacted with a lot of people standing around waiting for equipment.
Peak hours, 5p-8p on weekdays and most of the day on weekends, are a nightmare. Specifically with the school kids running around in packs of 5 and spending 45 minutes taking up machines.
The club manager is super dissociated from everything going on and I have found them often just blankly staring at people when they workout and it’s very uncomfortable.
Conclusion: if you go to the gym for some light cardio after work it’s fine. If you are just starting out at a gym for the first time and want a “cheapish” intro, it’s fine. If you want a wide range of equipment and space to really dial in and push yourself, look elsewhere.
Recently Blink raised the prices of their memberships and the personal trainer sessions to the point were I would no longer consider it commercial gym prices, memberships for this level shouldn’t be $30/month with so many hidden fees. I will be moving to the Club Fitness down the block soon once my trainer sessions are up. It’s double the price for five times the space and equipment. With way nicer locker rooms and showers. In my mind, worth it.

It’s an average gym. However it well equipped and clean. Gets extremely busy around 8-9:30pm. Better in the early morning before 9am. If your workout is 30-40 minutes max, it’s an ok place to get the exercises done, also if you have patience to wait to use the equipments.
