Fantastically run facility staffed by dedicated and helpful employees. The fitness/workout area is not the largest or most impressive but it is clean and has everything needed for most routines. The activities gym is large for a wide range of games and sports. My personal favorite is the pool and sauna accommodations. The sauna has been closed during COVID but the pool is open for 45 min reservations. I am happy to continue my membership to this local establishment as they provide necessary community/after school programs.

Wonderful staff! Very caring and treat everyone with respect. Wish more attention paid to some maintenance issues and cleaning in the locker room. The Y seems to be consistent with deferred maintenance in all their facilities.

Many free class options with membership. New beautiful facility. Family friendly and affordable. Thelma Lovette YMCA also currently have a diverse competitive swim team for children @6yrs to 18yrs old! Family membership also includes free daycare for young children while you use the facility! I found that option very helpful so I could work out when my girls were young. Free parking and safe!

New facility, very accommodating, personable staff, very clean conscious - before and since corona, fellow patrons provide a friendly community, cant say enough good things in my experience as a typical neighborhood gym goer.

The trainers go above and beyond to get to know every one that walks through their doors. They get to know you and your limitations. Totally love this place!

Its got everything you need for yourself and for kids. Nice huge swimming pool, gymnasium, running track, sauna, showers, lockers, classes, events, even its own dedicated parking lot, and few bus stops nearby. If that wont get you to bring your butt to the gym, then you probably dont need it. Good luck!Did I mention that some of the Pittsburghs hottest eye candy works out here!

Great gym, amazing staff, very helpful and always smiling. There are a lot of classes you can attend with a great instructors. This gym is a GO! The only problem might occur here is parking, good luck finding it 😉 otherwise 5/5

I used to come this YMCA after arriving in Pittsburgh. Great location, with a friendly staff, and brand new equipment. Although I didn’t spend a lot of time in the whole facility, I know that there’s plenty of features for people looking for more than a gym place. I.e. indoor pool, spinning classes, indoor court, indoor race track.

Gym is great staff isnt always. If the staff were nicer and tried to be better employees they would get 5 stars but I had several bad encounters with staff.

This is a nice YMCA in the Hill District. They offer many health and wellness classes, they have a swimming pool for swimming lessons, an exercise area, and a gym for basketball and health fairs. I have two problems with this place - no parking lot, and their monthly membership rate is very expensive. This is the only community center of its kind in the neighborhood, so its a much needed facility.

Review №20

Great community center feel with very well-kept, new facilities. They have a ton of youth/family programs and workout classes for most ages and ability levels. On top of that, the trainers are helpful and all of the staff is really friendly. No other Y Ive been to is this good.

A great YMCA. The staff is very friendly; the facility is very clean. There are basketball courts, an indoor track, pool. Lots of classes like indoor cycling and yoga. Also, I very rarely find it to be too crowded in any way which is really nice. Easy access via bus or bike (bike station is right outside).

This is a great gym with a pleasant atmosphere. In the afternoon you have the track, gym, and pool to yourselves.

The facilities here are clean and well-maintained. My workplace was here for a wellness day, and all the staff at the YMCA were very kind and helpful. The pool was wonderful, and the yoga class on the rooftop was a good experience, as well.

I am temporarily homeless and bothering nobody sleeping in the cab of my U-Haul truck in the parking lot behind the YMCA. It was convenient because I was a member and they had a shower and I also use the facility for weights. I’m a veteran U.S. Army and after the director of this YMCA pulls up in an aggressive manner and then yells at me in a threatening way for parking my vehicle behind the YMCA and staying in the cab with my dog, then tells me I have to leave. I explain my situation and he still has no empathy or compassion. All I would explain to him is that steroids kill people and you should really get off of them because they cause rage and they are illegal. The YMCA was founded to create community and help those in need.

They are doing great things in the community in addressing heart disease. Its the only Y in the immediate area that offers a swimming pool and sauna. They have a basketball court, track, and both machine and free weights. They offer spinning classes, daycare, and free parking.

They have a pool, a sauna, lots of weights. There is a huge basketball court with a track above to walk around. There is a cucyle studio and a childwatch area. They also have a rooftop deck where when its warm they will do yoga etc. Outside. Its decent and not really overcrowded. My membership price isnt that bad at all either.

I just signed up for the Ymca today. At the one on centre avenue. The only complaint that i do have is that at this particular location there isnt a hot tub or a steam room which i was really lookinh forward to. Other than that they do have everything else i needed. And the pool is so warm as well. And they have a sauna so that makes up for the lack of steam room.

The YMCA was founded to create community and help those in need but obviously this location is exempt from this value because the “director” directed me to the YMCA down the road which I cannot stay because I have a dog. This too was explained to this guy and still he “directed” me off the lot.I hope the board of directors replace him immediately because he is the opposite of what YMCA stands for in a community.

I am a member of this gym. Its not as nice as it was when it first opened about five years ago. There arent as many group exercise classes to choose from, but its still a good place to work out. The parking lot is located behind the building and feels unsafe if leaving when its dark out.
