Reviews

Amazing and great place for recreation, sports, and relaxation. My kids enjoyed the time they spent here and are looking forwards to another exciting time. Volleyball  , Basketball , hockey , swimming ‍, soccer , badminton , climbing, and gymnasium ‍. They have lots of parking spaces, toilets  and seating areas.

Older equipment. Little cramped in the weight room, but it has a ton of light, a running  track, access to a pool and classes for a lower than average membership price.  Also, they have child minding which is huge for young parents or mothers looking to get fit during matt leave.  Overall, this gym needs an update and probably needs to be organized a bit better. But we are really happy with the crowd and the vibes there.

This location is very close to us which is a bonus.  People can complain about anything.  I find the staff, volunteers and members to be generally kind and likeable.  Our kids are enjoying the swimming lessons.   I like the gym.  Yes there are gyms that are more fancy but this facility has what most people need.  With the membership one can always try another Y location.

We like this location of YMCA, this one is smaller than other locations, but still there is gym, hoops and 2 pools - one for adults and another one for kids. Staff is really friendly, my kids enjoy it being here, and me too :. And yes, it's clean and neat here. One more update: for those with hypersensitivity to noise/loud music etc. this place is better than Shane Homes YMCA, because it's way quieter here.

Much of the volunteer staff are utterly terrible. Their focus is so much on enforcing the rules that they get tunnel vision and don’t consider if the rules actually help anybody. They’re on power trips, enforcing every petty thing and generally just giving the customers a terrible time. They don’t seem to care at all, nor show any respect, and just sour the experience of this YMCA. Also, it’s hours are pretty sad. The facilities themselves seem okay though, there aren’t many issues with the gyms or equipment. 2 stars because I still continue to use this YMCA thanks to its convenient location.  2 Months later update: Hours are finally acceptable, not as good as other locations but nothing to complain about. The annoying volunteers still do not quit, but there are nice workers here as well. Won't increase the rating out of principle, but without the bad staff this would be a 3-4 star location.. Alas, they are still there.

The only upside is that this location is convenient near a train station and plenty of neighbourhoods.  However, the hours are horrendous so one can barely make use of this facility unless you are an independent 3 year old or a loafer that is always up at all hours of the day and doesn’t have anything on their plate. Staffing shortages shouldn’t have affected this YMCA as it’s located in a vital area in the suburbs. Honestly, closing at 1:30 pm on the weekends is baffling.  Furthermore, the facility is run-down and falling apart. Classes are always cancelled, the changing rooms are filthy and the equipment sinks, showers, swimsuit dryers etc. always out of order. The atmosphere is also quite dour, with 1-2 harried staff members working throughout the day only. Although stretched with tasks to do, they seem to only hang around the check-in desk and have the audacity to question the few-remaining clients on their accounts.

Beautiful pool and a great location! It's been yrs since I've been swimming and it feels so good to be back in the pool. 7:30am is a great time to swim..the pool is almost empty! Had a lane to myself!! Very clean.

They may be an older Y but less busy than the the newer one built at rocky ridge.  And their staff are always friendly and helpful. I just wish they wouldn't keep the pool so warm .

The male life guard needs to relax. My husband and I have had our own seperate experiences where he is yelling at kids or being rude to parents. So other than that the facility is great. Please do some interpersonal training.

Overall not bad, but this is the first gym I have ever been to when mid run I’ve been asked to move machines so they could clean the treadmills periodically when there was 8 others they could’ve cleaned first….  I also don’t appreciate being stared at until I take my headphones out to respond when I am clearly running..
