Staff is great! Location is great!
Great staff. Comfortable and welcoming place.
I just had my first personal training session with Melissa. I have not participated in other programs or activities
Great staff and programs in a friendly neighborhood location. Totally different than the sterile industrial feel of most of the other fancy new centers.
Ease of parking. No big crowds. Clean. A bit old and tired but clean.
Members are polite unlike City Way they don't sit on piece of equipment using their phones.
Close to work
very helpful staff and pleasant atmosphere. Also free nursery is the added advantage.
We like the convieniece primaily as we live close by and it's an excellent faciliity at the Atheneaum. Plus the staff and Andy are so freindly and the hours of operation are fabulous. We tend to come earlier in the morning by 8:00 usually and like the fact that we could come earlier if we wished.Having the TVs are nice as we can watch the news of ESPN as we walk the treadmill. One downside is the piped in music. If you are pay for the service I would save my money. Most people wear buds anyway.
Love the environment and the access to classes at all times of the day with the auto virtual classes.
Super convenient to downtown (I'm able to walk there), friendly front desk, lots of equipment, and a welcoming vibe.
I like the quality equipment

It’s convenient and not overcrowded
The instructors and the friendships made in the classes
Diversity of activities.
Mara is an excellent trainer and the whole staff is very nice!
Always able to find space to workout or a free machine that I want to use. Space is clean and staff is friendly.
The Athenaeum Y is conveniently located for me and I enjoy the classes offered for the good they do for raising my activities levels and for the social interaction among neighbors who join the class.
I don’t use the programs or activities, I just love going to the Y. For me it’s an older crowd and the directors do a great job keeping things updated and clean.

Enjoy such a friendly staff.
