I have been a member here for more than one year, everything is good so far. I love their group classes.nToday I met a mom who is very rude in the parking lot. I was sitting in my car, and she helped her kid open the door on the passenger side. However, her door hit my rearview mirror, and she saw it but she didn’t move her door away from my mirror. I was like ‍and haven’t said anything yet, but she started yelling to me said omg it’s nothing. She doesn’t have any manner in front of her kid. It’s terrible.
The weightlifting room is adequate in size, but too quiet for my taste. I also felt like the air circulation wasn't all that great, but it might've simply been an off day for me. I also find it inconvenient that it closes at night as I like late-night gym sessions. It is however much cheaper than many other gyms, and has multiple facilities included.
The Cartierville YMCA is to my knowledge the newest site and quite well organized. Great trainer, friendly staff and friendly members! I wish I could say the same about the parents bringing their kids to the swim classes. They often ‚block‘ changing rooms and walk with street shoes in the shower area. The YMCA should look closer there and enforce the rules they posted. Another downside is the lack of parking spaces when swim classes happen.nnThose negative points do in my mind justify 4 stars. If you use the YMCA for yourself and avoid the peak times on Friday evening and Saturday mornings it is 5 stars!
Overall good gym -nnIve been going to gyms consistently for about 4 years now. I started going here about 5 months ago because i moved close. I have tried many gyms in the past and here is my review when compared to competition. I also preface by saying i have only used the gym and havent tried other activities yet.nnHIGH POINTS:n- vastness and quality of the installations.nThe gym is large and the equipment is plenty. They also care about equipment availability. The cable machine was always busy and they ended up buying another one.nn- attendancenThe gym is never swarmed. Even in peak hours you normally get machine availabilitynn- staffnStaff is friendly when you go see them annd leave you alone when you want. It looks like people like working there and it shows.nn- they carenWhen machines break they get fixed quicklynn- culture & peoplenThe people there are respectful and nice! Had some nice interactions with gymgoers without any trouble.nnLOW POINTS:n- Gym etiquettenI was really surprised by this. There seems to be this unwritten where people leave bottles / towels to reserve a machine. This happens even during peak hours when benches and equipment are highly contested. Not only this but people sometimes clog machines forever. I once did a 45 minutes workout without being able to use one of the 5 squat racks because the same 5 people were clogging them.nn- no mandatory towel policynAlways a low point for menn- Unsupervised minorsnThey allow Kids/minors into the gym. Not a low point per se but something feels wrong when you see kids misusing / messing with machinesnn- opening hoursnClosing at 6 pm on weekendsnnOverall i would recommend as the highpoints vastly outweigh the low points. I am looking forward to discovering the rest of the facility!!!
The gym area is nice but the down side is the price. If you only plan on using the gym equipments and maybe the basketball court once in a while you still have to pay the full monthly fee that it costs to maintain a pool and hire lifeguards. It is way too expensive for someone who wants to work out for 2 hours and leave. Also to add the gym closes way too early I mean 10pm?! Come on!! At least close at 11 or midnight! Very unpractical in so many ways.
