Brady DaleOctober 28, 2013This place is chaotic, dirty and loud. If you like a chill schvitz and a good spot for hanging out by the saunas, this isn't your place. Everyone gets dirty sandals.
This place is extremely special. Perfect close to a poisonous weekend. #manday
Dmitry LevitskyJune 19, 2014AVOID THIS PLACE AT ALL POSSIBLE COST. I am Russian and this place is a disgrace to what's commonly known as a Russian bathhouse. THIS IS THE FILTHIEST venue I HAVE EVER VISITED IN MY ENTIRE LIFE.
Great steam. A bit dirty. Not so good massages. Eccentric crowd.
KarlJanuary 3, 2010Spend 20 minutes in the Russian room, dunk in the ice pool and hit the roof deck, even (especially) in the winter when it's snowing out.
- Get a schvitz then come to Whitmans on 9th street for the Best Burger in New York!
Natalia MantiniAugust 5, 2012don't know how they can call it "health club", u r lucky if you get to leave without some fungus on your feet!! Nasty. People liking this dump clearly have never been to a real spa/saunas place!
akhill chopraFebruary 20, 2010Don't rush into the ice cold pool till you've been in a hot bath room first. Victor was great with the platke which was uber envigorating
Deal ShakersJanuary 20, 2011$12 for a full day pass to the Russian & Turkish Baths at
French Connection ManApril 16, 2010Laze in the baths or endure a spine-smashing massage. There isn't much more manly get-up than towel, slippers and smile. Read more
Meredith BattjerSeptember 2, 2010This is not a day spa. Prepare for some heavy sweating in close, bunkerlike quarters.

"My fave spot for Mediterranean eats. Perfect East Village ambiance. Always crowded on Fri / Sat nights + no reservations. The merguez cous-cous or any of the tagines are sure shot orders."
Dee Phunk - 6.7
"Get the mabo ramen for something different, otherwise everything is very solid. Favorite low key ramen spot for a quick dinner."
