Member Testimonials
The downtown YMCA is an older building and past directors have abandoned thier duties. This new directors and board members are on a great track and I feel good about going to this building again!! Great job staff. We appreciate you!!

Great fitness alternatives and helpful staff.
Front desk employees are so pleasant. Women locker room is so clean. Thanks
I like the SYAC area and all of the benefits it provides, including the steam & sauna rooms, multiple shower rooms with towel service, the tv and billiards room.
Easy space for a swim when my home Y not working out. Friendly, helpful staff.
The hardest thing is cost of parking, but the street parking is convenient.
Really nice staff and I really appreciate the character of the facilities.
The members are super nice and staff are pretty good.
The people and pool
I love the community at the Downtown Y including staff, residents, and my fellow swimmers and workout partners. The facility may be a bit worn, but it's clean and always welcoming. The Y is a big player in our lives!

POOL & SAUNA WITH A GREAT BASKETBALL COURT...JB
The staff are amazing! They provide a warm, welcoming, nurturing place for our kids before and after school. I don’t know what we would do without this program!! Amanda, Miss Terri and her team are rockstars.
They have great equipment that I can work out on in a female friendly environment. Swimming pool is great too. It is not crowded at the times that I go.
Most welcoming Y in CNY!!
The staff was very nice and inclusive of all the kids. They were extremely responsive one day when my child was late getting to the program. All ended up being fine, but they contacted me right away, which I appreciated. My child was always having a good time when I came to pick him up from the program.
The quality of staff and programming! My son has been participating since Pre-K. He gets mad when I pick him up too early from aftercare. Thank you for all that you do!
The staff at the downtown Y is aplways pleasant and welcoming. The facility is always clean and welcoming. The women's fitness center was always great but it is even nicer now with the recent improvements. Thank you to the Downtown Y for providing a safe, welcoming and nice environment for all members! As with all the Syracuse YMCA branches, it is a great place to workout!
Friendly SYAC with all the equipment I need to work out
great amenities and classes!!!
I like the pool. Staff is friendly and helpful very clean.
The downtown site is very comfortable and unassuming. Everyone is welcoming—staff and members. It may not be the newest facility but I find it much more friendly and less sterile than the other sites.
People at the Downtown Y have been friendly and welcoming.

People and the vibe
The downtown Y is very comfortable. One receives smiles and friendly greetings from others. Classes are to my liking. The teachers are confident and encouraging.
