My only complaint is that you don’t have any ellipticals on the third floor. The bball gym is EXTREMELY LOUD when there are 25 basketballs being bounced 10 feet from the elliptical and a buncha people screaming, or 50 kids packed in there. I have to turn my earbuds all the way up just to hear what’s on it, and even the noise is so loud that I often cant hear music. Unpleasant! Really makes me wonder why I’m $54 per month when I could go work out in a gym with a healthy volume for $8 per month.
It's welcoming and fun and inclusive.

What I like best about my Y experience are the classes, the awesome instructors, and the Y community members. It would be nice to have additional group fitness classes and longer pool hours to be added to the current schedule. Overall, the Boll YMCA is still a great place to train and workout.
Community and quality group classes
I love the sense of community I have from the Y. Not only do I get a great workout in with all of the available equipment and classes, but I feel connected to the other Y members, Y staff, and larger Detroit community through supporting and joining such a great organization.
Great people, supports an important cause, very good value for exercise, good for all of us!
Friendly Staff!
Love the vibe. Staff is very friendly and helpful. Option for a personal trainer is extremely helpful for me to achieve my goals. Great selection of equipment.
It's a clean facility. There are lots of machines and weights to use. The track is great alternative for the treadmill.
The only thing I don't like is how bad 25% of the people lifting are at reracking their weights. Can there be like penalties or a ban for these people?
This facility allows me to be apart of The Silver Sneakers, The instructors they have are Great!! I also love the welcoming of YOUTHS of all ages, The Y has enormous activities that challenges their adventurous minds!! Also the fact the Y has a pool and a Scheduled water aerobics itenary! I also am grateful that my Grandson has a membership and he soars to the BASKETBALL 🏀 COURT!! The Y is CLEANED, SAFE the staff are respectful and on their watch!!! I appreciate the Y being at the ❤️ of Downtown Detroit! My only issue is the parking 😒....but overall I love coming to the Y...
