Everything
Kids Club is a great amenity. I have enjoyed yoga and look forward to Women on Weights. I would like to see a pilates and boot camp class offered in the evening!
I wish the facilities in the counties were as fresh and modern as the Central Parkway YMCA. It's obvious that they have invested in an adult-only facility. I would use the downtown Y, if it weren't for the expensive nearby parking.
Gym is clean I have never participated in any programs I just work out there

The people
I can select what I want as my routine at the “Y”. I am not locked into any one particular program.
The thing I like least is the extremely loud music, screaming and loud shouting at each other standing next to one another and the use of vulgarity in the men’s locker room. Remember this is the “Young Men’s Christian Association. On many occasions you would never know it. Many consequently many members have left the downtown facility.
The staff is always friendly. The atmosphere is always welcoming. It is always clean. There is a new kids club which is a major plus for us since we have small children.

The staff are cheerful, friendly, and helpful. The multiple and varied exercise machines are clean and well-functioning, the rooms well-lit and at a pleasant temperature. It's nice to have views of the city and nature from the large windows, and I enjoy the historic elements of the important building. I got a great deal out of Silver Sneakers before the pandemic, but now enjoy self-work at the machines (NuStep). Best of all, I live upstairs!
