The people
I really appreciate the diversity of the Downtown Y and the friendly staff. I always have such a positive experience there and am so grateful to be part of this community.
Great place to work out. Indoor pool is awesome.
Terrific staff, large, well-stocked facility.
I love that even though the building is showing some wear and tear, I get to work out with lots of different people from different cultures and backgrounds. To me, it's the ultimate Durham Experience. It's not the classic cookie cutter experience of fancy gyms full of people who aren't very friendly and expensive memberships for stuff I never use. I was a member of those kinds of Jim's for years before I joined the Y. I also love that the front desk is always so friendly and I love chatting with Wilson. I also love to see all the community support with signage and free food, etc.
Equipment and personnel. Friendly service. They try to help if you need it.
Staff is friendly, consistent, and always happy I am there.
