I am answering this for my daughter First name removed who has Down Syndrome and is a Y member. She likes going to your Y, even though she lives in the west side of Syracuse, because it has a nice variety of activities and she is able to see some of her friends there.

Everything
Love the group exercise experience!
What a beautiful facility! Your staff was wonderful as well from the front desk staff to the lifeguards. We frequent the Fayetteville Y which can be described as shabby at best . Your swim area was clean, bright, well cared for. Even the locker room was clean and bright and in great condition. I’m used to rust, broken tiles and sewer flies in our swim area and locker room. Our visit was most refreshing. Thanks again for a great day
I like the variety of group classes offered at the Northwest YMCA. Instructors are friendly and knowledgeable. The community of individuals who use the Northwest YMCA are friendly caring people. A great place to go!

Great clean, well maintained facility !!!
It's not typically overcrowded, which, to me demonstrates that there are generally enough machines to handle the number of people there.
In particular, I am very happy with the Triceps Press and Biceps Curl (with double pulleys) machines as I prefer them to a Triceps Extension and a Biceps Curl (with single pulley) machines, respectively.
I do wish there was a Rotational Torso machine - I feel like that would round out the weight machines available.
The ambience and atmosphere are generally good.
It really could use a thorough cleaning and a better daily to weekly cleaning - every nook and cranny of every machine there is full of dust and human hair (yuck!).
Used the pool area with my grandkids. Excellent supervision and spacious.
Great facility. Friendly, helpful staff.
Pickleball everyday

Being able to swim and work on my aqua therapy. Because my disability has worsened as I have aged…. Water exercises is the only way for me to get meaningful workouts.
