the folks at Sweatshop bust their humps. the rates are reasonable. the equipment is in pretty darn good condition. the deli is one block, the pita palace is two. As is the L and decent za. what's not to love? Edit" pita palace was closed, is reopened (haven't been yet), but the Sweatshop is back and the AC blows cold. godspeed, local music rental Mecca.

Great spot to practice. It’s in a good location and there’s tons of rooms. I’ve been coming here for years and it’s still being run in the same great way. I will continue coming here as long as it’s open. Looking forward to my next visit.

Sweatshop is great for what it is, great equipment and lots of rehearsal rooms. They're a bit overpriced for their small rooms. Def been to rehearsal studios that have a better hourly rate with more space.

Studios for all sizes of bands, but they will never give more than 3 mics. Equipment is better than most studios in the area but not great.

Great place to practice. Lots of good options for gear and setups. Prices have increased since was there last. Booking online is a new thing and I don't really care for that part so I'm taking off a star for that.

Go here for the band practices all the time. Parking isn't bad. Rooms are cheap, staff is young and helpful.

Been rehearsing here for years. Very grungy and the community of musicians that has grown around it are all great people. Equipment is taken care of and the drumkits are complete. Staff is knowledgeable, and don't mind turning a blind eye to enjoying yourself while playing. *wink wink* Bottoms up!

Been rehearsing at Sweatshop since it was located on Metropolitan Ave. Variety of rooms and rates. All rooms have air conditioning, so Sweatshop is merely a catchy name, not an apt description of the climate.

This is a great place for band practice. From it's strip down, minimalist, punk rock aesthetic, too it's easy to handle pricing, too it's easy to reach location, it's hard to beat. It's a two second walk from an L train stop.
