Outstanding senior workout program on Monday/Wednesday/Friday
The facility is gorgeous; right in the heart of downtown. The staff is friendly and helpful. The people who frequent the site are great too. Never a bad experience 😊
We love the senior exercise group. Good fun and great people. Welcoming snd warm.

the parking sucks, what can be done for seniors that need parking especially in the
morning when most of us come. The parking lot at the opera house is usually almost empty
when I come, that could be a solution. Something needs to be done. I would come at least daily
if I did not have anxiety over where I will park.
The facility is always clean and welcoming. The staff is friendly and is very helpful.
Definitely the best YMCA I have been to. Great facility and wasn’t over crowded at all.
I enjoyed the view while I exercised. The only draw back is the parking. As a mother with limited time having to circle the block 15 minutes for a parking spot when I only have a certain window for self care after work is a little annoying and is something to think about when it comes to returning.
Other than that the facility is beautiful! If it had better parking opportunities it would be PERFECT!!
People and customer service-oriented

the facilities and the people
I love going to the Y - the vibes, the people, especially the pool
the only thing i wish was different was more options for weightlifting classes
One monthly fee to have excess throughout all programs and equipment at the YMCA also instructors to help with special muscle groups especially for me since I had a stroke I've had a heart attack however I am in very good health and approved by my doctor and insurance encourage exercise at least every other day I appreciate the why it's clean it's safe I love the way it is aerated fresh air Windows everywhere It is well lit up beautiful Yes I am proud of being able to access if not the best for sure one of the best In the country.
I love all classes I’ve taken especially David’s Cycling classes and Cheryl’s Pilates classes.
Friendly staff clean locker rooms great pool
The staff are friendly and responsive. They greet you with a smile at the front desk and wish you a pleasant day when leaving. They take action when informed that a repair is needed or that something needs to be tended to within the facility.
Management is friendly, accessible and responsive as well. Sometimes they have to make unpopular decisions (e.g., ending the child care program) but they handle them in a professional manner ensuring they communicate the reasons for the decisions and the future vision for the facility.
There is so much talent under this single roof. The Y offers a variety of exercise/class programs that are all led by dedicated and knowledgeable instructors. It definitely feels like a family.
Finally, the facility is well maintained. I don't know how many members/guests/visitors walk through their doors on a daily basis (including most holidays which is another compliment to the staff), but it's A LOT which requires a lot of upkeep. Given the wear and tear, it still feels like a modern facility at 10 years old.
Thank you TO ALL for a safe and fun place for our mind, body and spirit.

Great facilities. Great exercise classes. Super friendly and helpful staff. Great location. There's so much to like about YMCA Metropolitan Detroit.
The Boll Family YMCA is a very welcoming environment. The staff are pleasant and helpful. The
range of exercise classes offered is extensive, offering something for every skill level.
This is my second time having Keith as a swim instructor and he's the best.
