Friendly staff
While the Salem Y is probably the oldest and smallest Y on the North Shore, it is the nicest and funkiest space and everyone is very friendly there. I like that the staff greets you when you enter and says goodbye when you leave. I can't say that about the Marblehead Y, the other Y which I frequent. The women's locker room at the Salem Y is very clean, also. The showers in the Marblehead Y, on the other hand, are dirty (clumps of hair and Bandaids, and dangerous bits of soap in the showers) and EVERYONE is using her cell phone in the locker room and sauna, despite signs that say THIS IS A CELL PHONE-FREE ZONE. Women in the Salem Y tend to follow the rule about not using cell phones in the locker room and in the sauna.
Friendly staff, awesome historic building, location, clean!! Over all good vibes!!
Wonderful staff, usually open for long periods of time!
Great facilities. Great staff.
Pros
- central location
- up-to- date exercise equipments
- courteous staff
Cons
- Not that I’m watching tv when I’m exercising, but sports-related, business news, are more relevant content than talk shows like The View. Get members in the right “grove” by showing contents that are fitness related.
Very friendly and helpful staff. Every area I use is kept super clean
Open lane in pool is worth recommendation!
