I have felt welcome and at home at the y since my first day. Staff and members are cheerful and always available to help. Management is open to suggestions ( adding more chair yoga classes to meet demand) and quick to respond to requests.
The fitness class selection is excellent and the teachers, delightful.

The Northwest YMCA offers members a variety of ways to meet their fitness goals. The steam room is a nice addition. Also, there are several opportunities to play pickup sports and leagues. I'm excited to be a member.
Love it. It's the best "Y" I have ever been a member of and I have been a member of many having lived all over this state, Rome, Utica, Poughkeepsie, Rochester and Albany!! The B-ville family YMCA outshines them all.
Excellent facility, incredible staff. Though I have noticed the gym equipment is showing signs of wear. Torn pads on several of the machines and some lines in the gym need touching up. Preventive maintenance is essential. Having years experience running facilities - it will Cost you more in a long run if you don’t keep up! I’ll keep this private doesn’t need to be posted publicly. Positive constructive feedback 😊
Lots of room and very friendly staff and patrons.
