Everyone at the ymca is so friendly
I go to this ymca because it is close to my house. I like to swim and also use the fitness center. The pool is not well maintained and is often broken / randomly closed / or cloudy. The showers are in bad condition and the drains don’t work - many of the soap dispensers and towel hooks are broken. The suit spinner is usually broken or malfunctions. The weight room is nicer than the pool, but rules aren’t in-forced (like not dropping weights) and maintenance is slow (like the water fountain and treadmills). I travel for work and go to Ys all across the US and NC - this one is in the worst condition of any that I have visited and many of the other Ys I’ve seen are in older facilities.
Unattended teenagers that take up the equipment by sitting and socializing for 30+ minutes without using it, yell over their headphones, don't follow basic gym etiquette. Barefoot or adults only wearing socks in the weight area and on machines. It's never addressed by staff if anyone is even in the wellness center to begin with.
An adult man filming me and having a teenager film me and then harassing me when I asked him not to. This was brought to the staff's attention but he continues to stare me down in the gym making me uncomfortable every week. I like the gym when these things aren't happening which is less than half the time, so unfortunately 5/10.
The locker rooms and showers need to be much cleaner and the showers need to drain properly which they do not. The curtains on the showers need to slide instead of sticking. And the mold on things needs to be cleaned off. There is no reason for the place to be filthy.
The guests and staff are friendly and supportive, however the building is definitely showing its age and is in need of improvements.
Mostly I swim at the Bryan Y. The lap pool is wonderful and I can always get a lane! However, the steam room in the women's locker room has been out of service for several months with no indication when it will be repaired. I have also spent about a year taking Body Pump classes on Saturday mornings. The equipment is extremely old and honestly pretty gross. I've switched to taking those classes at Spears. It makes me sad because I really do like the Bryan Y.
The instructors are priceless. The friends you make at YMCA are also priceless.
I am really enjoying it so much making new great friends and having fun in workout classes and doing other things for fun.
Still waiting for someone to go thru the machine and what we how to achieve at the Y.
Please do more pop up pickleball events on Saturday.

Like the epiqment that you have in the gym
Very helpful and friendly people!
The main weight rack has been missing a 60 lb dumbbell for several weeks now and hallway family locker 19 is continuously full despite saying "Day use only".
It is a great bargain and a wonderful experience
The prices are reasonable, especially since I don't have annual fees like many of the budget gyms do with as many or more facilities. The crowd of the gym also feels non-judgmental and the environment feels stress-free.
The center I like the facility I like the fact that it's centrally located however there are so many facilities that are newly built and are larger
It's an older building although it has most of the facilities you would like. When repairs are needed it often takes a long time, ie, sauna, faucets, curtains, etc, and locker room maintenance could be improved.
However, it has a very vast list of programs and options, the staff is friendly, and just a wonderful world of socialization for all ages.
You did not disappoint. I do not have any family members who could enroll in Bryan Y Aquatics
Amanda is attentive and knowledgeable. She cares about the needs of her clients. She's the best.
I have had a personal trainer for about 3 yrs. It is a phenomenal bargain and a great experience that I am sure has extended my life expectancy. My trainer takes great care of me and shows serious concern for my wellbeing.
Cheer camp was fantastic!!! Can't wait til next year. Wish there was a year-round activity!!!
