friendly staff, clean facility - great drop-in experience while visiting town

Good teacher:student ratio, friendly and professional staff, good location. I love ymca has indoor pools. Suggestion: can you put a small trash bin near shower booth area? Hairs are stuck in the drainage holes, so I often remove them to make water draining, but only trash bin is under the Sink.

I enjoy and benefit from the group classes

Excellent and friendly staff and instructors.
Especially like the classes for Seniors.
I appreciate the use of towels and cleanliness.
I do wish the water temperature in the women's showers was more consistent, sometimes it is cold and we weren't notified prior to using it.

Pool and Gym

The warm atmosphere, good exercise equipment (especially, eGYM), generally considerate members, and now longer hours.

I come only to use the strength machines, but the staff people there are always helpful.

Excellent variety of activities; and the new, longer hours on weekends help too!

I can walk to the gym and that is a big plus.

Variety of programs and instructors

I’m a regular swimmer and use the pool 4–5 times a week. It seems the pool facility is in need of some maintenance or upgrades. Heather has been doing an excellent job keeping things running, and she’s clearly working hard with the resources available. Still, the facility is showing its age and could benefit from more consistent upkeep. The indoor pool is a major asset for the Palo Alto Y, and I believe we all want to keep it in great condition.

Very clean and good for kids, the pool is great
