★★★★★Takahiro HiroiA very good YMCA location with a swimming pool and a fitness room. Men's locker room has a sufficient capacity and hot showers. Fitness room has enough number of machines for me most of the time. Wheeler high school kids may occupy the pool at 4-5 pm in their season, and sometimes the schedule is not correctly conveyed to the members via email.
★Wayne GonsalvesJoined here a few weeks ago and am very timid about gyms. Emailed 3 times for a facilities tour and never heard back. Just cancelled my membership. They don’t care about anyone. Just your money I guess.
★★★★★K MThe group exercise classes are well-run and fun. My Medicare Advantage insurance covers the monthly fee.
★Tanya VaydaFAR too HOT in the teeny tiny workout room. I can only treadmill run 5mins at a time before I have to stop, while at planet fitness I can run for 40mins. No fans here. AC is set to 74 degrees, only comes on briefly when it's too hot. They removed the $1.75 water vending machine so if you come without water but have money, you're screwed. Awful business hours. Bright bright fluorescent lights complemented by white walls. Constant depressing early 2000s tunes on the radio. Closes at noon on Sunday and 2pm on Saturday when ur paying $65 a month? Oh but there's classes included? Why should I supplement someone else's classes when I only want to use the treadmill for 5 hours a week? There's no structured payment system. If u want to use the pool all day, take all the classes, and spend all day in the workout room it's the same cost as someone casually using one gym machine a few times a week.
★Freddy SmithMost of the staff are great and helpful however the "personal trainers" there are trashy... Everywhere says to wipe down the machines and weights once you're done using it. However in the past year that I've been going here not once have I seen these trainers or their trainees wipe anything down. Even if they leave a sweaty trail behind on the machines. So disgustingly unsanitary and so disappointing for a location that's great otherwise.
