The staff is friendly, facility is clean, and parking is ample when I am there. I do have to try classes and engage a trainer, but so far my experience has been great.

The facilities are great and clean. The staff is kind and helpful. We love going there. The only reason why I didn’t give it a 10 is because:
- Not everyone wipes down machines or benches after they use them, which I find disrespectful to everyone else working out.
- When we came for the first time, we didn’t get a tour and nobody told us we need to be scanning out when we leave.
- Some of the front desk staff seem unaware of programs or how to answer questions.

The facility is well maintained, updated and family-friendly. The staff is friendly and professional. In the event there is an issue with the equipment or members, they are addressed efficiently. I have recommended the Southeast Oakland YMCA to family and friends, many of which have happily joined.

It’s been cleaned up and looks much better than last year. The water is warm in the pool, the showers have plenty of hot water, and the staff are friendly.

I cannot help but live and die by the Egym. I am hoping to see Egym expand across several YMCA locations throughout America. I am also in love with the pickleball community that plays every Wednesday and Friday. I hope the pickleball network continues to grow. We have also enjoyed sending our kids to childwatch, summer camp, and "parents night out" events.

I can exercise my complete body in a manageable fashion. I like the E machine’s cycle. People not following the cycle process is annoying.
