I’ve only just started going here and not for a gym membership. I do tango classes there with tango Mercurio but it’s a nice gym and the front desk. Staff are always really nice.

The gym staff was kind and friendly. It has all amenities I require as a powerlifter. Besides the gym is well equipped with lots of dumbells, machines, cardio,...I can recommend it 100% and will drop in again when I return to Washington.
