I have walked by this location countless times and have never gone in. Today was the day! It was quiet and a little cramped in the lobby. The first floor is the entrance, lockers are underneath, and then two floors above. Second floor was cardio and a large studio, and there were plenty of treadmills for all to use. The best feature of this (gay!) facility was the equipment all overlooked 7th Ave. Natural light in a gym is the BEST atmosphere.
The third floor (really fourth since you have to walk up two flights of steps...those tricksters) is the weight room. It was nice and spacious and had everything you need. Up a few stairs on this floor were the bikes and spin room, but I don't think that counts as "floor four." Just a subset of floor three perhaps. Who cares?
The weight room was nice, clean, and open. Full of natural light. TINY stretching areas (one tiny one on the second floor and another tiny one on the third floor); I guess people don't stretch or do abs here. The locker rooms, while having plenty of lockers themselves, were a little cramped and downtrodden. The most fascinating thing of the day was the naked man who was opening all of the shower curtains and looking inside -- whether or not there was someone showering. Awkies? YES. I chose to bypass the showers since there wasn't a steam room or sauna anyway...and he wasn't really my type.
My grade: B
