Love the location of the Y! Very convenient for me. Only negative is that the facility is looking 'worn', areas need painting and womens locker room faucets in sinks aren't working properly.

The person working at the Y are always friendly and courteous. You know like the rest of us they have bad days in their personal lives, but they never let it show at work. Also the cleanliness of everything.
Friendly ,helpful staff, well maintained facility
I enjoy the pool and the Triathlon swim program
I am SO not a gym rat. Tried the overcrowded, judgy, Fayetteville Y last year and stopped going after a dozen trips.
The Manlius Y has proven to be so superior both in terms of amount of folks and comradery (Yeah, I still detest exercise).
I have been working with Elana in a personal training capacity, and she couldn't be more positive and encouraging to this sloth who apparently needs to have constant accountability.
iNSTRUCTORS ARE GREAT GREAT STAFF HELPFULL
I usually use the YMCA in Liverpool New York and I don’t drive I take call a bus and I haven’t felt like going to Liverpool just to go swimming, so I decided to try downtown Location and I find it very convenient and the staff are great. Hopefully I can utilize the other equipment.
The place is spotless, staff very friendly. The track is awesome. Just an all around wonderful facility.

I've been very impressed with the Baldwinsville YMCA. The facilities are always clean and fully operating. They post a schedule and stick to it. The front desk staff is competent and always very friendly. The pool is particularly well run. The lifeguards are alert and always working as they should. They manage the lanes well, and there always seems to be a place for me to get laps in when I visit. Love this YMCA.
That said, the East Area (Hal Welsh) YMCA is a polar opposite. The front desk staff lacks training. The locker rooms are typically not clean. The pool is very poorly managed. They are often late with posting their schedule and it is rarely accurate. They shut down lanes for private lessons with just a couple minutes of notice and boot the swimmers in the lane. The pace clock has been hidden behind the flags for months, making it completely unusable. The lifeguards seem to have a poor work ethic. Often times you First name removed see 3 or more of them sitting in the office, while 1 is on duty, and only 1 of the pools is open. Just seems like very poor staffing.
