Like all Equinox clubs this is clean, modern, clean, packed with amazing equipment, clean, staffed with great trainers. Did I mention it was clean. Love that. The fitness rooms for yoga and cardio are roomy and have good climate control and very spacious. The trainers are all in great condition and very knowledgeable about all things fitness. There are 3 tiers of training so there's a variety of intensity in training and expertise offered. The equipment is state of the art, brand new. They seem to be updating everything frequently so it's rare that you'll be on a machine that seems over used or old. The membership is a little expensive but if you go often, take classes, use the sauna, and all facilities it's worth it. Also, for the parents, it's has a great day care.

Best Things: Very, very, quiet after peak hours. Classes are great. Elixer bar downstairs.

Worst Things: Unfortunately there are huge columns that make for many bad spaces to occupy in classes. The yoga matts aren't the cleanest, bring your own.

I love this Equinox.  Its not crowded at all.  All the equipment is new (I really love the new Lifefitness treadmills with displays that allow you to hookup your iPod, create a virtual trainer, change the display of your route (track, nature trail, etc).  The weights and strength equipment are really spaced out so you don't feel you are on top of each other at any point.  It takes up the full 2nd floor of the building and there are windows surrounding the entire gym so you get a lot of natural light.  I generally work out in the AM and compared to other gyms (including other equinoxes) the locker rooms aren't that busy.  The best thing is that its CLEAN.  I constantly see people cleaning the equipment (insides of lockers, ceilings, its pretty impressive).
