Clean very friendly staff and plenty of exercise classes to choose from
I give it a 9+. Only thing stopping it from 10 is sometimes when machine breaks down is not replaced anywhere near time it is supposed to be back.
Everyone is friendly and helpful, it is clean and the pool is great.
Clean, friendly and lots of options
I love the variety of classes, the workout equipment, and that there's a pool - all included in the membership. The Y is the best value for fitness in this area, hands down! Plus everyone I've met, from patrons to employees has been friendly. There's a great energy at the Y!

Friendly people - coming in, doing exercises, and leaving. Smile and most people smile back. Leta Renich

I enjoy taking my young children to the kid friendly events! The events get my children into the community and involved in a variety of activities. My children loved the Pajama Party!
I like the variety and availability of the group classes and the instructors are first rate.
My children always enjoy the activities at the Ellicott City Y. Can't wait until the next event.
The classes were very relaxed, but structured. All the instructors were very patient and kind with the children taking the class. I would highly recommend the class.
The friendly staff and members.
the exercise machines are up-to-date and maintained well - the pools' consistent cleanliness is greatly improved in the past year or so.. nice staff for the most part..
The support and encouragementi i receive from the staff.
We loved the PJ party. They had a moonbounce, hair colorings, design your own pillowcases and some other awesome stuff. They also had cereal and snacks to eat. But the moonbounce was the favorite thing for my girls. We love all of these events that the y puts on. It gives us things to do together as a family that we can all enjoy!
