Member Testimonials
It is SO clean. Staff are visible. There are no children running around without parents.
Teachers and the community
The pedaling for Parkinson’s has gotten me back in the gym after years of no exercise. The group is so friendly and the instructors are all so helpful and encouraging! Bravo. Please keep this class going.
You have a big gym to walk around - only 5 times to make a mile!
You have enough machinery to workout on.
You have the arm exercise machine when some Y's don't!
Clean facility, friendly staff - and sometimes (only sometimes) HGTV is playing on one of the three TVs. I wish it was playing all the time for those of use who aren't football crazy.
Lots of classes. Good facilities. Ample parking. Convenient location.
Like the music, helpful staff, huge selection of machines & exercise options. Also, relaxing atmosphere for those who wish to focus on form/posture during exercise regime. I have learned how to tune out background noise. A big “thank you” for compassionate trainers & their encouraging words (especially Dave).
The classes are too crowded. Please add more sessions.
The cybex machines need to be cleaned. There is grime.
So far I only used the track for walking. I hope to expand my usage over the summer
Mary Free Bed YMCA provides all the necessary things to stay healthy.
Love the class options MFB Y offers! I do miss being able to add them to my calendar from the app though.
The facilities, the machines, and the pools are clean. There's a great selection of weight machines, treadmills, bikes, elliptical machines, rowing machines, and basketball courts. There are also nice separate walking/jogging lanes.
Size. Availability of family shower/changing rooms. Weight machines.
Pool availability.
Even on the busiest days there always seems to be machines available.
Exercise space is always clean, and I can generally get on the equipment I prefer to use. I appreciate Mary Free Bed adding two more stair machines to offer 4 total. One are of constructive feedback: locker rooms need more thorough cleaning and maintenance. Torn shower curtains are left unreplaced for too long. Lockers and benches are often dirty.
The class was great, but the swim class hours are difficult to find on your website, and they don't match the actual class times posted outside the pool
The space and the equipment
Nice facility, nice gym, ramp was nice for people that have trouble with stairs.
Body combat class was nice, but a small room for the amount of people, felt a bit cramped.
Always friendly and helpful staff, the place is very clean. Love the classes.
Big, spacious facility. Wonderful pool . . . all of those basketball/volleyball/pickleball courts! The well-maintained exercise machines, free weights, etc. and that marvelous 5 lap track.
But it is the people who manage this Y . . . friendly, hard-working, caring people!
I love the YMCA grateful for the membership!
The kidzone date night was great however I really wish this was offered at the Lowell litehouse location - we would be able to participate more frequently and my kids are comfortable in that location and familiar with their staff
The staff is knowledgeable, friendly and professional. The facilities are clean and well kept. Classes are well organized and the instructors are able to teach members of different abilities at the same time.
It’s great, clean and accessible. We’ve been members for years.
Warm,welcoming and challenging
It's not too crowded at 5am, they have a good amount of free weights
Diverse population and wide variety of classes
The wide variety of programs for individuals with all levels fitness.
I have good interactions with staff and the class I’m currently taking, the instructor is great. They have been helpful from scheduling to billing. I have used the massage and PT, they have been great.
I especially appreciate and enjoy the aqua cardio classes. The instructors are motivating, fun and they really seem to care about the people in the classes.
