★★★★★Brigitte MLove the water aerobics classes however the classes are large and water space is limited.
★★★★★Bryan StrongFadayo had great customer service upon arrival to start up my membership I really appreciate my guy you deserve a raise
★★★★★Amie JosephI love the downtown Y. They could use a few more weight machines and a little more maintenance on what they've got, but overall, they do a good job and it's a good place to work out.
★Cassie RunionCalled this location and the taylorville location to see if the pool was open. Drove all the way to taylorville (and hour and 20 minutes) to find out they were closed get the this location after called and talking to the front desk when I got here, and their pool isn’t open either. And I couldn’t get my money back. Beyond pissed
★★★★Jess ReynoldsOverall, it is a great place to exercise. Gary at the front desk is so friendly and kind. From swimming, basketball, racquetball, pickleball and all the exercise equipment it is the place to go to get daily exercise. They have workout classes and even one on one training available. Day care is extra but is available during certain hours. I have never used it at this location, however, so I can't vouch for it, only I see a room for it. I do wish they listed all the times for stuff like open swimming. I never seem to time it right.
