Spencer Family YMCA

★★★★★Megan Wheeler

We are not members but do attend the swimming classes. While membership isn't cheap, we sincerely considered it after coming for classes! If we were a little closer, it would be a no-brainer. Open a location more towards Pleasant Hills, please!!!

★★★★★George Demnyan

Very nice gym with lots to do especially if you got kids! They have childcare as well!

We have been members of this YMCA since it opened 8 years ago, and despite a 10% increase in our monthly membership fees earlier this year, the service and the condition of the facility and equipment continues to go downhill. The front desk staff are primarily young people who can’t even be bothered to look up from their phones when members are coming and going. Twice this past summer, after an evening workout, I vacated the locker room shortly before 9pm (the Y closes at 9pm on weeknights) to find the place deserted, the staff gone, and the doors locked. The locker rooms are no longer cleaned on a nightly basis - I am not sure how this is even possible. This is obvious when you are the first person in at 6am and there is hair / debris all over the floor / trash cans filled to the brim. Soap dispensers will fall off the walls in the shower stalls or above the sink and lay broken for weeks. A light bulb has been out in one of the shower stalls for over a month, rendering it unusable; despite my informing the front desk about this, nothing has been done. Two of the four most popular ellipticals have been broken for over a month for one, and for almost three months for the other. This is not an exaggeration. When I have inquired about the timeline for getting these machines either fixed or replaced, I am met with an indifferent shrug by the staff. Really hoping things start to improve soon, but not counting on it. We are already looking to move on.

I am feeling that the stuff working in this location are racist and discriminate non white members. I also noticed that the swimming pool stuff/safe guards are receiving gifts from certain swimmers/members which should not be allowed. My son 8 year old using the treadmill for walking with speed only 2mile/h under my close supervising, which is recommended my our UPMC children's hospital doctor for physical training. One of the trainer at YMCA abruptly stopped us however there is no written policy can be searched on their website or posted on wall saying the same thing. Even during our first day orientation staff clearly said that kids of 7 to 9 can use facilities under parents close watch and supervising.

My daughter (6 yrs old), just finished up a round of private swim lessons with John and he was excellent! In just two short hours she is so much more confident in the pool. The whole time she felt safe and had a lot of fun. She's already asking when we can come back for more lessons. Thanks John!
