Good staff, nice environment
I more often go to Morgan, but the smaller Tacoma center Y has good exercise options.
The steam room is always clean.
The staff is so kind and cool. The facilities are clean. There's so much to do 9classes, equipment, events, amenities.
No kids and classes for seniors.
I have 2/3s of a lung and the pool, sauna and jacuzzi sure help my breathing. Soon, I will try working out some.
Very polite staff. Clean facility. Good equipment. Lots of classes to choose from.
Love the pool! Appreciate this is an adults only facility.
The biggest asset is the friendliness and helpfulness of staff - both instructors and at the front desk. They are wonderful! I also appreciate the daily classes for seniors and variety of equipment available. I also often use the 360 vide os for Boomers by Tina.
I sure wish I could let my grandson's use the rowing machines and treadmills. And it would be wonderful if there were more times on weekdays for youngsters (ages 4 to 9) to have freetime in the gymnastics gym. If they don't swim, there is not much for them to do.
Also, please clean the inside of the door to the women's locker room. It is so grimy feeling.
Great teachers, quiet and clean, friendly staff
The instructors demonstrate expertise plus they seem to enjoy what they are doing. The classes involve people of all backgrounds, ages and experience and all seem to enjoy themselves.
It’s friendly .
Pool lap swim
The sense of community, the friendly front desk staff, and fun classes make the Tacoma Center YMCA a great place to get your workout in and catch up with your gym buddies! Take a group class, go for a swim, or get your weightlifting on — you can do it all at the Tacoma Center Y!
Welcoming staff. Being able to use elliptical with a fan blowing on me. Swimming laps. Thank you!

Thank you very much~~~Tacoma Center YMCA
I like having my own lane to myself, swimming in the pool in the evening after the masters workout until closing. With a little time keft to use the hot tub. I understand that the Downtown center is now trying to put in Water Arobics and interrupting the whole evening schedule. That would screw up my time at the Y. I do backstroke and it’s hard to swim in the lane with any other person without hitting them or the ropes.
I enjoy the people who work there and the lifeguards. They’re all very friendly and nice.
The parking is good downtown and there’s no mothers yelling at their children like there is at the Morgan location.
