Adequate facility for any workout needs, if you know what you are doing. Staff is pleasant, premises are clean and well maintained but the occasional slammers of equipment wind up causing more damage than the cost of their membership. Folks be considerate by remembering the low cost of your membership versus the benefits; be real......

I would tell members and people thinking about joining to go to the Montclair location or a different gym entirely. The staff are great, however the bathrooms and overall cleanliness of the gym is subpar. The bathrooms are never stocked with toilet paper, dirty and it seems the owners donβt care about the minor fixes or upkeep. Go to a different gym, even if this is convenient.

The owner does not care about this facility and has zero interest in customer service
I have been a long time member of Retro fitness
I had a email reminding from Corporate for a free 16 oz smoothie . There were 3 front desk personnel along with the owner .
I wanted to redeem the smoothie and the owner proceeds to tell me that he doesn't have any 16oz smoothie that Corporate always makes the same mistake because they are 24oz. He then told me to go into my account and get a 24 oz smoothie by redeeming some points. . I asked the front desk personnel if they could help me with the transaction of redeeming the difference in points and I wa told they didn't no have to do it. I stayed in the front area for a few minutes trying to figure out how to redeem for a 24 oz using my free 17oz smoothie and the points, the owner spoke about. The owner looked at me with the hope that I just go away
Growing frustrated I asked for the corporate number and he told me he doesn't have one
The front desk agent told me that she would try to get me an email for corporate. After waiting an additional time . I was simply ignored and I found myself writing this review
He simple doesn't care if members return there or not
Place is going south quickly

6/2025 Update:Gym is cleaned, machines maintained and the kids who run the place are great.
But, people are still allowed to occupy machines watching videos and text messaging for as long as they want.
POST SIGNS, DO NOT OCCUPY EQUIPMENT WATCHING VIDEOS, TEXTING OR TALKING!!!!
Dirty always. The green rug in the stretch room where you lay down always looks like someone was eating on it. Broken empty paper towel dispensers, Alcohol spools sporadically empty and dirty, machine cables broken. Most annoying is, people are allowed to sit on machines and text or surf FOR EVER while people wait. On site management says theyβre not allowed to do anything about it or even post signs.
Other than that, the kids that work there are great.

Staff is great, but the owners do not care about this place. They have no clue how to run a gym it is embarrassing. The owners need to take pride in owning this gym, honestly what an embarassment. Iβve been here since 2013 and these guys are absolutely clueless. This metal is exposed and ripped my sweats as I was walking through the walkway. Unacceptable and couldβve been my actual leg that was cut. Place needs a wake up call. Absolute dump.

The only reason that I attend this gym is because they are 5 minutes away from my place. They frequently have broken equipment which happened for months and was only fixed because they charged members a yearly fee of $51. They were closed because the power went out and they decided not to have a paper sign in. They are frequently late in the morning and the bathrooms are disgusting. The management must change because they are ineffective at communicating with members and living up to expectations.
This facility is scheduled to open at 5:00 A.M.. I waited for 45 minutes and they finally opened. It seems as though bad habits are continuing.
I will be ending my membership because of this issue and I encourage others to spend their time and money at a different facility.
As of 11/25/2024 The turf area is not accessible. The ownership does not seem to have a plan to fix or open the area. They do not allow access to many things. How does the management keep this place open?

Woman employee with black curly hair and strong chin is extremely stubborn and infact makes the gym a less enjoyable place due to fact that she is just unreasonably having an attitude all the time or that she is just always and i mean ALWAYS aggravating multiple people that i have spoken to about the same topic.

Change in management was the BEST decision for the gym. Iβve been a member for years where things were constantly broken or OOS , Anthony has made some noticeable changes already !!

Where do I even begin? Since this retro fitness has been under new management, I have seen more improvements in two weeks than in the last four years that Iβve been here as a member. Anthony is already doing a great job with replacing broken grips getting rid of broken machines and moving things around to maximize the amount of space in the gym. He has already gotten the fans cleaned and installed new air, fresheners to keep the gym smelling great as well. He brings a new energy into the gym and it is a positive one.

Itβs almost been a month with the new manager, Anthony, and Iβve already seen a turn around in cleanness, organization, and equipment being repaired rapidly. I canβt wait to see what Anthony has in store for the gymβs future. The owners finally did something right by having him take over and hopefully this will continue to push them to stop being so cheap and actually invest into more improvement to the facility and member needs. Lastly, a round of applause to the kind staff members, especially Adam for always preparing my shake to perfection. Adam reminds me so much of his older brother, Chris, who was one of the best employees to ever work at this gym

I recently had the pleasure of working with Eileen Meson and Nick Caporrino to set up my membership, and I couldn't be more satisfied with the level of service they provided. From start to finish, the experience was nothing short of fantastic, earning them a solid 10/10 in my book. Eileen greeted me with a warm smile and a genuine eagerness to assist. Eileen patiently guided me through the membership setup process. Her friendly personality made what could have been a difficult task easy. Nick Caporrino, too, played a crucial role in ensuring my membership experience was seamless. His efficiency and expertise were evident as he navigated the technical aspects of the setup with ease.

This has to be one of the worst gyms in the area. Thereβs at least 5 machines broken currently. Two of them have been out of order for over a month now. The only two flat benches they have are broken and are still being used. They need to be replaced instead of fixing. One day the bench is going to collapse on someone mid workout. A lawsuit ready to happen. The owner robs members with the yearly fee and neglects the machines. Thought this fee was to help upgrade the gym. An embarrassment to retro fitness franchise.

Upgrading from a 3 to a 4 star review. Amazingly low price. Limited amount of equipment but offers a good variety of selections for different muscle group focuses. Conservative when it comes to gym rules for example dropping weights and being loud some times. Does not offer much in terms of heavy weight training equipment and spaces. Amazing view of the NYC skyline while running on treadmills. Offers amazing shakes and drinks. Overall, this gym is for the average fitness enthusiasts with some important above average features but lacking in a huge market of weight training.

As a disabled member as of July of 2021 I have been visiting Retro on a daily basis. I've never seen the abuse of handi-cap spot. So for starters, there's only one spot...After going there for > 8 mos, yesterday I called the No. Arlington Authority to deal w/ vehicle parked illegally w/ no handi-cap placard or license plate. I waited 25 mins for a close spot to entrance & waited for Authority to investigate why the driver was irresponsible in nNOT letting other disabled people know why he was taking the spot. In addition, previous to this incident, the parking sign has been turned around, moved or gone leaving anyone to park in the same spot...People need to practice compassion for the disabled & Retro will be fined by the ADA to correct the abuse...Sorry, I didn't wake up from an induced coma 7 years ago to deal w/ the lack of compassion for both member & Retro itself....

I have been a member since it opened. My biggest complaint is that they donβt hire employees that understand that part of their job is to show up on time to open the door. A number of Saturdays, myself and others have been had to wait at least a half an hour until somebody shows up. Please hire responsible people to work. We all have busy schedules and are trying to get a work out in on our schedule not whenever someone feels like coming. Also get the TVs on the machines to work. Most have been inoperable for months.
I originally gave them two stars, but have changed it to one as no one showed up on time to open the gym two days in a row. Once you could maybe understand but twice indicates to me a lack of care by the management for their customers.

The convenience, the affordability (and what I get for it), the friendly staff, just so many things are great about Retro! People are friendly and respectful too, which is so incredibly appreciated. Also I really love just how spacious the Retro in North Arlington is, I've been to a few others and the layouts just seemed so cramped and uncomfortable. I love getting there when it's not busy, makes me feel like I have the whole gym to myself.

A lot of what other reviews have said has been true. Iβm going around the NA, Kearny, Lyndhurst, Nutley area looking for a gym so this was based on my guest visit. I went around 530(prime time). This place has just about everything you need. All the machines and weights possible which is good. However, it isnβt clean at all and the locker rooms smell like someone has left their sweaty gym bag for years. In addition, I overheard some members complain about how it is dirty, greasy, and dusty and that the workers (young teens) are at the front desk just hanging out, all which are complaints in the reviews. However, for the price you pay I say itβs fair what you get in return, could be a bit cleaner.

Been going to this gym since 2013 , itβs the perfect balance of gym equipment. No sauna or steam room like other high end gyms but if youβre just someone who likes to get a nice workout in without any high end equipment then this is the place for you. Super affordable, nice staff, and most importantly they keep the place constantly cleaned (#1 thing for me as a constant gym-goer)

Nice gym and people are very friendly but they really have trouble finding a staff member to open gym up at 430am. This is annoying at times. There is nothing worse then waking up at 3am driving 30 minutes just to get to a gym and it doesnt open on time. I believe in the real business world the management staff should be opening the gym and not some young adult. HORRIBLE!!!!!!!!!!

Great place to workout, only reason for 4 star rating is the fact that is always packed

Before joining the gym , I was making sure that I have done enough due diligence making sure I am getting everything what I am looking for. I have read all reviews here and finally decided to visit this place and was really happy to see this excellent gym with lots of space, brightness , clean and very friendly staff. Thumbs up and will recommend to everyone.

The gym overlooks the beautiful New York skyline which is a pleasure to see when I work out here. The staff is incredibly helpful and very enthusiastic as well. The eqipment is well kept and there is enough space to work out easily.

Every day gym. Surprised at how spacious and big it is. Equipments seems relatively new. Clean and absolutely there is nothing to complain.
If I am picky at one thing, it is the crowd that comes to the gym, and the people that I see every day are quite pleasant, looks well educated and am happy to see the same and familiar faces every day.
There is a movie theatre with some cardio equipments. Used it once only and it was not crowded. Not sure as to why more people donβt use theatre.
I would certainly recommend this gym without any hesitation.

Started visiting North Arlington location. I like how bright the layout is. Fernandaβs classes are infectious. A great workout and lot of sweat. I would definitely recommend this gym.
