    Pros: Clean, affordable, lots of space, friendly staff and open long hours. Cons: It is super crowded. If you go after work or before work it is hard to work out with people passing by or waiting for people to finish working out with a machine. Another issue is that people bring guests and they workout together and take a machines for 30-40 minutes. That guest benefit as much as it is nice to have, should be taken away. It is unfair for those that pay as well and just want to work out. Overall you get what you pay for and for some may be a hassle to workout when you barely can have room to move, but sometimes it is just too much of an inconvenience. Worst times 7-9AM weekdays, 5-9PM weekdays. Weekends is hit or miss.

    I’ve been a member with Blink for the past 5 years. By far the best facility around. The Woodside location is mint from the staff, to the equipment, to the facility itself. From the ownership, to management, to the trainers, by far the nicest and most knowledgeable staff in this location. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Woodside Blink to anyone. I am certainly satisfied thus far and have been blown away by my experience at this new facility. Such a family vibe as soon as you walk through the door.

    the workers at this gym are super negligent, I’ve told them twice about the issue with the stair masters being broken (only two work) and they keep telling me they’re not broken? They literally don’t move 💀 only 2/5 of the machines work. Second, I can’t go on a machine without three people asking me when I’m getting off or how many reps I have left. Annoyed.

    Very bad service, months ago I had problems with an employee because I didn't want to continue going there and I wanted to cancel my membership and they wanted to charge me money for wanting to cancel my membership. The lady was very rude and threatened me. Apart from that, she told me that I couldn't come back. never to register, apart from that today I called to want to register and a man answered to tell me that the prices were online and that he was not going to give me the prices, they have very bad customer service, they are not professional at all, nor Respectful, terrible customer service and very bad policies!

    Very very disappointed. This location has a serious problem! Opening time for the gym is 5am most days. Paying members begin to line up around 4:30am. I the hopes of getting one of the only 3 squat racks available. At 4:45am, trainers enter the facility, close the doors behind them, then proceed to begin working out on the 3 racks prior to opening hours. By the time 5am comes around and members are finally let in, all the racks are taken. And no, they are not training anyone. They stay on each rack for over an hour! You can verify this via camera. So I/we are basically paying for a service that we are not getting! Furthermore, the employees are now letting their friends in early to also take the machines prior to scheduled opening time for paying members. This needs to be rectified. Members have written emails to member services, and nothing has been done. I'm asking you to step in and take care of this! Thank you.

    Too many broken machines and even though you tell the staff it take weeks ,months to get fixed and a lot of the leather is broken on the machine I can only imagine all the bacteria on them . Some of them smell bad . A total health hazard.. other then that it’s nice convenient gym and staff is nice . Very packed also .

    No different from any other bottom end gym. Super overcrowded. Expect to wait 20 minutes to get on the squat rack or bench. And their marketing is all “we’re different from other scummy gyms”. But they’re not. Sign up for a month to month membership? Well it’s not really month to month because you need 45 days notice to cancel. And you still get charged an annual $60 maintenance fee that the website makes seem like it only applies to the annual plans. Just join a nicer gym. The cost will probably be the same once you factor in all the hidden fees and you’ll at least be able to get a workout in

    I used to go here before pandemic. I cancelled my membership via online after pandemic. All cleared! I recently went to join again and there was due amount of 53$. When I asked I paid everything when I cancelled why is there still due amount ? They don’t know either and I’m the one who have to email them regarding this, okay! I emailed and waiting for them to reply - it’s been two days still no reply and I don’t even feel like going back to this gym anymore. Mind you, when there’s due amount - it’s going to pop off every time when I scan my code and I have to explain whoever is working at the front desk EVERYTIME!!! Instead of exercise, I’m going to lose weight explaining this to them. This is the only gym in my neighborhood and it’s always over crowded as well. Do better…

    Based on the reviews we all understand that this gym is always packed and not enough machines. Why don’t you add some more? There’s plenty of space. You sell all these memberships and stuff people in there like sardines but you don’t have enough revenue to add or fix machines? This is such a selfish and disgustingly managed gym. Make your members happy we shouldn’t wait 35 minutes for the squat rack.

    Have done a few day passes to test out this gym and it is an awful experience if you are serious about fitness. Way, way overcrowded no matter what time I went and so often times youll be waiting 20-30 minutes for a machine. This most recent visit, i waited 20 minutes just for a light dumbell to free up to start my workout (anything from 15-35lbs) and gave up and just left. Would not recommend

    The gym weights section is full 90% of the time and I’ve been there at all times of the day. It is clean. Good luck canceling your membership after one year, membership rolls over without warning and they charge you to cancel. Unjustified..

    What makes a place magical? It’s not the venue. It’s not the equipment. It’s the people. Don’t judge a book by its cover. From the outside it doesn’t look like much but get passed the semi gritty exterior you’ll get to the in between of a Oreo. I have to give a round of applause to all of the staff members here they have been nothing short of amazing, helpful and truly a beacon of positive energy. Specially management and front desk staff which are fantastic and welcoming at all times. A couple of specific employees Panagiotis and Kostas Sotrillis for pushing strength training specially to those who need it in more aspects of life than weights. Aswell as James Encarnacion, Michael Paulin, Jordan Tenzin for guidance when most needed. Maintenance staff Is way above par and the gym is predominantly very clean granted like any gym it will smell a little funky from time to time but that’s just because of the foot traffic. I guess everybody wants some of this energy they’re pumping at woodside blink and I can’t blame them. It’s Epic!

    As member for two years now. Staffs and cleanliness is đź’Ż great but the machines most of them are broken.

  • 5/5 Helen W. 1 year ago on Google
    Joined a year ago and couldn't be happier. Super clean and the staff is kind and attentive - always willing to make the time to support your workout, check your form and keep you safe. Their willingness to go the extra mile is what separates this site from the others. I've really enjoyed having Julian as my PT - workouts are always interesting, challenging and respectful of my cranky knees. Appreciate the camaraderie amongst the staff - it makes it fun *sorta* to work out.

    This happened during covid and I just happened to remerber it today. The story is that I couldn't go to the gym during covid so I cancelled the membership. I thought everything was good untill I got a letter from a collection agency. The businese not only didn't cancel the membership but also let collection agency get invloded without inquiring me first. No response when I emailed them. What a business. I have no problem with this location, it's just the company.

    Not enough benches or squat racks makes it frustrating at times. They need another location in the area to spread out the volume of members. Staff and members however, are nice and respectful, as well as the gym being well maintained.

    Blink fitness itself is very shady. I had canceled my Membership and they took money out still when I don’t owe anything anymore . Your bank accounts or money is t safe here. Go else where

  • 1/5 Mixi L. 4 weeks ago on Google • 2 reviews New
    If I could I would give them less -3 stars, the service is bad, it always smells bad, the schedules are not updated in real time, the worst of their locations in Queens to be honest!
