Great, clean club 11/22/2010

This is a really nice club. The pool is beautiful, and, as far as I know, they don't have any youth swim team. But, there are always plenty of lanes to swim in, and the water is very clear and clean. The locker rooms are HUGE, and they even have a sauna and steam room. Rates are very resonable,too. I just don't have anything bad to say abaout this place. more

Brooklyn Sports Club Aquatic Team 4/8/2010

Beware! Do not sign up children in the Aquatic team! Swimmers will not receive the training that is needed to be a competitor in US Swimming sanctioned events. The past two head coaches and staff were let go due to vague reasons , not because of ability. The kids training and competition events have suffered enormous setbacks due to the policies of the club administration. There is no continuity, and pride among members. Pros: Nice pool but not official length Cons: Poor administration more

Staff not too friendly 10/6/2009

To be fair, I must say that I only went in the gym to obtain information. The staff was not pleasant and didn't seem to be knowledgeable of the services. more

Rude staff 1/28/2008

First, I'd like to state that I think this gym is the GREAT! wonderful machines, clean, spacious, not really crowded, sauna, steam room, pool etc. My only complaints are that the front staff are not always polite and you'll cen get a taste of this even when you call. A young unprofessional staff and a bit snobbish. I skipped on many classes because I can seem to get moving to calypso music. I feel they should alternate this. I do carry my Ipod but then I won't be able to her instructions. Other than those two things the gym itself is fabulous. more

The Most Complete Gym in the City 1/25/2008

This is my escape from the real world. Although I prefer training outdoors for Triathlons, this gym offers the most complete ebvirnment for me and my family on adaily basis. There is my favorite pool in the city (nicer than Asph.. Gre..) and the gym, sauna, steam room, cycling, etc...... My disabled son loves it as well along with my spouse and baby girl Kaylee. Man I can't wait to get there tomorrow. Pros: Staff is polite, happy to greet members as well as they also knows the members. Cons: swimmers slowly losing swim hours to age group team - perhaps am hours is best for them like other clubs more

Best kept secret in Brooklyn 1/29/2006

This place is a gem! Many people think it is only for Starrett City residents but it is open to everyone and I just love it! I can't believe that I just saw it from the Belt Parkway and went over to check it out. Their personal Trainers are top notch and soooo much less expensive than anywhere else - I prefer the top floor with all the equipment and also use the pool a lot - Everyone there already knows me by name - that you don't find in most places - never crowded and clean as a whistle! Pros: priced fair, great equipment, parking lot Cons: not well known, sometimes crowded, only some classes for more

I lost it at the club! 10/20/2005

This club is 100,00 square feet. Where in NY do you find anything as great as this? The competition sized pool has been voted the best in Brooklyn. The instruction and diversity in classes is awesome. The most friendly and welcoming staff. They are always giving you things for free and running contests, like I lost it at the club. They have my vote as # ONE. In the summer they have parties outside on the pool deck, breakfast lunch, snacks, DJ, free raffles and free giveaway party bags!!! Pros: Huge park lot, security in lot, classes are free more
