The facility is definitely nicer than some of the other YMCA locations in town. The locker rooms are up to date and seemed well kept. The sauna works great, especially compared to other Ys in the area. However, the free weight area is missing a few essentials for me (no incline bench? No fly machine?). It's a fine enough location if you're staying downtown and need somewhere to work out. I won't be making it my regular gym.
An sleek outer appearance more inline to the jazz of nearby upscale hotels and ballpark village storefronts. The staff are eager to assist with personal recommendations in exercise equipment. The lighting captures an update modern feel and on a good day which are plentiful throughout the week you can walk in and witness a slew of members pumping it out. Then there are the others who prefer to quietly practice the shifting, holding, and rotating through aerobic activities. It's not the largest facility but it's consistent with its audience.
I love the gym! Parking was spacious but beware of the meters. Service was friendly and helpful with a lot of the current programs. The gym was great experience too due to music selection and gender specific steam rooms. Only downside is there is no gym to play basketball in or track to run on. I recommend this gym for someone looking for a quick workout without the amenities you could be getting at other Y's.
