I feel so lucky to have the Y downtown near my office. Its so convenient to get my workout in during lunch. The staff is wonderful and always so friendly. When Im not working out on my own, I am attending the 12p-1p circuit and HIIT classes with Krashina and she is a gem, as well as the class. Its exactly what Ive been looking for, and has really helped!My only request is better music throughout the gym.

Focusing on building strength so I appreciate the weights area. Good options for people who are doing barbell exercises and I like that they have the Rogue weights that are the size of a 45lb weight but in different weight variations. That makes my workouts with deadlifts or barbell rows much easier. Also the staff are great, always nice and happy to greet or help people.

I love it. Everyone is so nice and genuinely helpful. It’s always clean and the equipment is always available and in the best condition to safely operate.

This is a great YMCA, good equipment with a non-intimidating crowd, in a good location. Just wish they would extend the hours a bit.

I go often and am well pleased with the facility. It has a very good variety of weight and aerobic machines. Very convenient to downtown offices.

I’ve worked out at this location for years , left and went to other workout facilities and it’s not the same so I decided to come back home where it’s not to crowded and you don’t have to stand in line to wait to use any equipment.

I like the location and parking. The staff is friendly and the manager is attentive. If you don’t want to socialize, you don’t have to. It’s a good fit for me.

Great gym but not cheap considering they do not mind closing early! A shame that families do not get a break like dead beats do! nothing Christian about that

YMCA allowed me a trial membership to use the facilities while relocating and living in hotel across the street. Great value for you $ and now i use the Ys across BR area, depending on if I am at work, home, or playing tennis.

Great Gym, but very hard to get to if you work long days. Hours are 5-8 m-f. Would be great if they went to 9.

I signed up a few weeks back, got a referral discount. My fee hits at the regular rate, so I call the downtown office and was told the lady in charge of discounts is too busy to go in and apply the discounts this month, but its ok because im not the only one who got jipped on their discount. I basically was told to suck it up this month. The woman I signed up with in no way disclosed that my discount would depend on whether someone had time to apply it to my account each month and I would be screwed if she was to busy. I like the gym equipment, but I cannot tolerate a company who does not honor an agreement made with a customer. The management at the YMCA is very disappointing to say the least.
