Easy to present your tag and go to you class, or the exercise fitness area,or enjoy a lap in the pool. It's a great place to pump up or cool down.

Everything
I appreciate that the YMCA is welcoming to all members of our community
I enjoy the classes, staff, and the other members I have met.It has been most rewarding experience.
Staff is great
Easy to use app to sign up for classes
Nice variety of classes
The downside is accessibility (lots and lots of stairs) and parking - which you pretty much can't do anything about.
Any way to have at least some water aerobics etc during the summer?
Swimming pool and instructor
The Park Street YMCA is clean, well equipped and easily accessible. The staff are friendly and patrons are respectful.
1. Excellent selection of hours of operation;
2. Nice selection of knowledgeable customer service representatives, from entry level personnel to upper management staff;
3. Fantastic selection of exercise machines, cardio and weight options, and two swimming pools, for Christ’s sake!!!
Basically, I’m in heaven!!

All the options
The Y has a wide variety of classes with very good instructors for a very reasonable price. The Y is kept clean with the twice yearly closings for repair/cleaning.
I basically use the various weight rooms. They are clean and reasonably well equiped. And the Y location is very convenient.
Tremendous facilities, well run Y.
I like the pool and the women’s locker room, and the dry sauna.
I’ve already written a positive public review in Google.
The people, especially the aquatics director! I don't know how she remembers every detail a out everything, but she DOES! Give her and all the swim instructors a raise, honestly, because they are unfailingly excellent.
Great instructors. Friendly desk staff. Helpful atmosphere
The staff is very friendly and helpful. I love the group fitness classes - Rayshawn's boot camps, Mary's step and sculpt, and Gerald's Zumba. You have a great schedule that meets my needs. Thank you for all you do to make the Y a great fitness community.
There are lots of classes to participate in, and it is very clean and friendly.

Convenience
Montclair ymca is the best! The equipment is new and well maintained, the classes are excellent, the pool, and the people! I would never go anywhere else.
My husband and I joined in February. We come at least 4 days a week, sometimes multiple times in one day. We enjoy our fellow gym goers - so welcoming and caring and not hoity-toity, as well as the instructors - fun, knowledgeable and professional, and all the staff who always have a kind word and smile when we come and go.

I like the variety of classes with different instructor's plus the variety of time
