A great place to work out.
Clean facility (although waste baskets need more attention...)
Clean, convenient, friendly, busy but our schedule is flexible and we can always do what we want to for our exercises.
Community
The hours are flexible, when the hot tub and suna are working properly, best faciclity in Grand Rapids.
It’s relatively closeti where I live
Location, cleanliness, friendly staff
The water classes
My Y has the fitness classes I like with great instructors and wonderful friends
Everyone is friendly and the group classes keep me coming back. There is great variety
The people
Seems to be more family orientated you get to know people better it’s not such a big machine for people we could come work out.
Friendly staff and great classes
I really like the pool & hot tub, helps my joint pain & back, like walking the indoor track also.
Training we first got. Kind helpful people. Working machines. Clean
The soccer coaches are great and really care about teaching the kids about teamwork and fundamentals. I also like that everyone gets equal playing time. Both of my kids have played since they were little and found it to be a great experience.
Very nice place. Good space & equipment. Friendly staff & guests. All positive.
I love the Y! The classes and instructors are wonderful! The facility is very clean and all the staff are so welcoming. I sure wish you would bring back towel service.
Great family place with lots of great people!
Very clean and friendly staff
Since DDH doesn’t have a safe parking situation I always encourage people to check out Wolverine
I like that the pool water is not freezing cold like the downtown Y Family Pool. My main concern is that the water be warm enough, so I try to find the Y with the warmest pool water (not sure why the huge differences), and tho you are further than downtown Y for me, I go the extra distance for warmer water. I like that everything is clean, and I like the windows with open look. (I went to MVP Rockford prior to this for the warm water (92), but it is filthy dirty with no windows, prison-like, and the managers are mean). I like that all the staff are friendly. I like that there is open swim in the afternoon. I like that there are large hooks in the shower rooms instead of the really tiny ones at the downtown Y. I love that the Y offers scholarships for low income. I only use the pool, so no other comments. I like that you are open to suggestions because MVP will be mean to you if you have any. Keep up the great work! Going to tell friends!
My favorite thing is RunTV, a program on the elliptical a that allows you to “run” through various places and experience the “natural” hills and valleys of the landscape you see on the screen. Due to injuries I can no longer run long distances outside. This program is a godsend.
I also love the variety of weight lifting machines. I worked with a wonderful personal trainer - Donavan - and he taught me things that are truly life changing. I am stronger than ever thanks to him and to the great equipment.
I like how the staff always makes me feel so welcome as soon as I come into the door. The classes are fun and there is plenty of equipment to round out my workout.
Friendly family environment, proximity and helpful staff.
