Downtown YMCA

Check-in was seamless as an out-of-area guest. The facility itself is stacked with top-notch equipment, an indoor track, pool, sauna, steam room, and basketball courts. Spotlessly clean and professionally run, plus they had complimentary coffee and tea available on my way out which was a nice touch.

This is one of the most well-equipped fitness facilities I’ve ever been to. They have everything. Except parking and professional staffing. Parking is chaotic and the parking attendant is ALWAYS on his phone in the entrance booth, instead of using cones to direct cars to overflow. Once you get to the bottom floor only to find out it’s full, you have to do a U-turn inside the narrow space. Then you park outside in overflow which has no walking entrance, no security, and no attendant. When you walk in, the first person you encounter at check in is also on her phone. An hour and a half later as we left she was still on her phone. Yet, dirty pool towel bins were overflowing, pool deck floors are filthy and sticky. All the amenities in the world aren’t worth a dime if they’re not cared for and kempt. I’ve been a member over 15 years and this is the most complacent staffing I’ve ever experienced here. Maybe since they’re always on their phones (instead of keeping a nice gym) they’ll see this review and make some improvements.

This Y would be nice if they thought more about the structure of the facility, especially the pool/sauna. You can’t even go into the sauna because it is packed full every time at all hours. It’s hard to even get a good workout in with how many people are here at a time. Most treat this as a social gathering rather than a workout gym. The sauna and steam room need to be bigger. Not worth all the money.

We were visiting from Houston (nationwide membership) and the Downtown Y staff couldn’t have been more accommodating, engaging + cheerful (lookin’ at you, Ginny!) On top of that, the facility is awesome. Numerous equipment options, clean and spacious. Well-deserved 5-stars!

Amazing selection of hammer strength, arsenal, precor, and lifefitness machines. All areas including the locker rooms are clean and the coffee is nice! A little milk wouldn’t hurt though 😉

The Downtown YMCA is the best facility with numerous levels and workout spaces to offer different experiences. I love the variety of classes. Nothing negative from me - you may want to look at expanding the sauna. The staff is also very friendly and welcoming.

By far this is my favorite gym, it’s 6 levels of SUPER STACKED, it’s the best place to go get your steady **GOD-THICC** workout in and this is the closest you’re gonna get to a pretty gym photo out of me….
