Member Testimonials
I’ve already been telling everyone I know about my experiences at your facility. So far, I’ve taken the Yoga and BodyPump classes. Not only is your staff super helpful, the other members were more than willing to share what to expect and to help me get set up. The equipment meets my needs and I enjoy the time I spend there!
My only recommendation would be more proactive to prevent people from utilizing two types of equipment at the same time. I get that they have their set they’d like to complete, but it monopolizes the equipment and prevents others from continuing their workout. I feel like we all pay to be there and no one’s workout (or time) is more important than another.
Love facilities staff classes
I really enjoy the group fitness classes.
Great facility, equipment, and staff.
I love the classes and teachers, especially yoga and sometimes zumba. I think the exercise rooms were designed too small and sometimes classes are too crowded, but other than that, it is a good facility.
Great experience so far
Warm and welcoming and clean environment. The variety of classes, especially the yoga classes. Playing pickleball is my favorite activity.
One suggestion about pickleball is to have more availability, maybe daily instead only M,W,F. I would love to see outdoor courts too.
Its close to my work and I can fit a work out on my lunch hour.
Variety of activities. Family friendly atmosphere.
Wish the climbing wall was up and running. Sometimes feels like the common areas (track, window ledges, edge of courts etc) are not cleaned for weeks.
Everyone is soooo nice. The facilities are spotless.
Less crowded than the downtown Y. Plenty of machines. Nice layout. Clean.
Friendly
Clean facilities and good variety of gym equipment
Friendliness of staff, the track, ample lockers,
Mary Freebed has excellent instructors, friendly staff, and friendly members as well. The facility is always extremely clean and well-maintained. It is a pleasure to work out in this gym.
I am delighted with Mary Free Bed YMCA. It is very clean, has lots machines, great pools, a track to walk and jog on, courts, great kids programs. It is a very friendly place (both staff and members). I could not be happier.
Staff friendliness.
It’s clean, big enough to accommodate many, helpful people
Love the employees and the guests. Each day so enjoyable. Great equipment.
Always something great for each of my family members to do there. The longer hours are terrific too. I recently joined a master’s swim group there and love it.
Basketball court , gym, the pool, the people at the front desk how they respect when you i enter the door, group work lockers most of them like
Easy to access, awesome classes scheduled at convenient times with excellent instructors, easy place to bring small children!
Great facility, friendly staff.
Unfortunately, we are dropping our membership. What kept us there was the track and the above mentioned items. I have suffered a knee injury and we find MVP has a lap pool. Since MVP is free to us (though Priority Health) and the "Y" is $78 a month, we decided to switch. We will miss the staff. (Perhaps the "Y" should contact Priority and see if they would pay your fees.)

Great instructors, clean updated facilities and equipment, diverse membership . Pickleball !
Mary Free Bed YMCA is a great facility that is always clean and has friendly staff. I highly recommend this location.
I like all the different classes that the Y offers. The instructors are all very knowledgeable about what they are teaching. However, the classes that I am involved in are very crowded. I wish there was some way that the gym spaces and the community room could be made available more often. I would love to join some of the weight lifting classes but it looks as if you could not squeeze another body in the rooms. I have seen some of the weights touching other weights when people are working out. I don't think that is a good situation.
When I first joined several years ago, I was immediately impressed with the atmosphere and the "leveling of the playing field" by having only ramps/elevators and no steps. Such a great statement!
I like the wide open feel of the facility. Staff are friendly and helpful. I can most often have access to the machines I use in my routine.
Really enjoy all of the classes and instructors! Great facility! I wish there were maybe more kids programs and lockers with built in locks. Most ppl carry their stuff from room to room. Overall super happy with the YMCA. I’ve also been anti-gym my whole life and that mentality has forever changed!
I like the friendly family environment, the cleanliness, and the organization. At 75 years old I still
play Basketball with the youngsters.
I really enjoy this facility. It's always clean and service is always very good. I do wish the pool were open for open swim more often. I understand about the break requirement for the gaurds but it's a pain to have to stand in a cold hallway while waiting to get back into the pool area. It would be so nice to have a small cafe to get a coffee or tea while waiting.
