Great space but it needs lots of maintenance and repairs.The basketball gym is a sauna because there is no AC and bad air flow into and out of the gym... And parts of the gym floor are chipped which is dangerous. The good thing is that there are alot of good facilities to work out in and the space is there if you want privacy. I think the HVAC system needs to be cleaned because there is a lot of dust building up around the air ducts. Compared to the other YMCAs in the area this one clearly needs some help from the maintenance department.

The Founders of this once Great Gym and community/family space would be rolling in their graves. Management is more interested in stone walling and insulting members asking for historical hours of operation or withholding/limiting towels and cleaning services then they are addressing the loitering and open drug use withing the building.It is the only gym in the downtown core, yet is massively missing it's membership goals and seems to be going out of it's way to be as non user friendly as any business I have encountered. Completely overstaffed yet it's embarrassingly underperforms. Saddens me to say but stay away from becoming a member until the Management and board become serious about matching the levels of excellence their predecessors strived for.

Hi I’m 13 and I want to go to the gym with my friend that’s 16, we don’t have memberships and we just want a day pass, can we get in if we don’t have any parent? And it’s just us two?.

Great place to be a member of. Super friendly staff and the building is well-maintained base on its age and its use of it.The gym is very nice, clean and not too busy at certain times.I love going to play squash, and they got two squash courts and a few other different courts.The swimming pool looks fresh and smells like chlorine.

The staff are kind and welcoming. It's them that sold me to sign up.Here and there needs some cosmetic TLC...only one machine was out of order amongst dozens and dozens of other machines.The space was clean and organized although the bank of lockers I was using were rusty...the rust rubbed off onto my beige coat when I went to hang it... nothing like a fresh coat of paint to spruce up the place!Overall a great space for excercises and all types of amenities. A full pool, childcare, racket ball, ping pong and on and on!

Staff are nice and knowledgeable.Has a lot of up-to-date equipment, the only thing I don't like is how the machines are close together.Wish the gym wasn't in the basement because it feels kinda like a dungeon lol .A nice track with different speeds posted.Also you have to pay a $1 for a towel, which I never had to do at my the other YMCA that I went to.Even still I will definitely go again.

Used to be a former employee and went back for a visit. Marco at the front desk recognized me and welcomed me even though it has been 10+ years. Genevieve was also working. She is a highly competent senior manager so it was nice to see her again and still running the facility. The building was clean and all the staff was friendly and attentive. Only critical point was the hot tub was closed and not working during my visit which hopefully will be fixed for the members.
