A friendly, helpful atmosphere and I love that they offer a variety of classes.
Love the variety of classes with such good instructors.
There are plenty of machines to workout and the staff are helpful/friendly
I appreciate very much being greeted when I arrive as my tag is scanned. Being acknowledged means a great deal to me because I struggle with depression. Getting out of bed in the morning and getting through the door of the Y is very hard for me.
I take my friend Dawn to the Platte Y on Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday so that she can attend your Zumba and Boot camp classes. She's my accountability person to go to the Y.
On Wednesday, we go to the Clay YMCA on Iron Street in North Kansas City.Because that's where Beth has Zumba class. We scan ourselves in at the desk. I don't like it. Sometimes the people are all visiting with each other. Also it allows people other than members to use another persons ID tag and use the Y there with out paying.
The Platte also provides us with vending machines so we can get a snack and/or a drink when ever we need it. The Clay Y has this Ruby Jean's place with healthy food. Well, I used my protein bar after working out, however, my blood sugar was still too low. I went downstairs and the place was closed because of lack of help. No vending machines there. Luckily, another diabetic helped me out or I would have been in trouble.
Keeping the place clean
Clean facility for the most part. Great pool and saunas. Workout equipment is well maintained.
Good management and instructors
Always staffed well with polite professional people. Clean with well working equipment throughout the facility.
The Y does a nice job of keeping the equipment and facility relatively clean.
Equipment is placed such that it is relatively easy to navigate through and use safely.
Trainers are routinely friendly and helpful.
Re-tiling of the seat areas in the steam room and the new thermostat are nice. Temperature is now more consistent and warmer as appropriate in the steam room.
Wet areas are clean and nice looking after the work done in January.
The upgraded full-length exercise mats with storage racks are a nice improvement.
I've worked out at a wide variety of fitness facilities in and outside of the Kansas City metro area and the Platte County Community Center YMCA is my favorite.
