Partnership between YMCA and GVSU.
Kept very clean, well staffed and safe for all guests. Well done!
I like the people who go there and those who work there.
I like the walking track.
Nice, clean and friendly place with many available workout machines.
The teachers and community of friends I've made through classes.
I love the amenities, the facility, and available classes. I hate the parking and lack of equipment (no reformers for pilates classes even if those classes cost extra, one leg press machine, etc). Still love the place
Very pleased with the organisation and my member rate. Nice place.
THe lockers are nice and bigger then the cascade one and so are the pools. friendly nice staff.
The pools

I love the downtown YMCA... I love the new remodle and enjoy coming there with my kids and grand children. Rodney and the team make out a great place to visit
I love the water and the steam/sauna rooms! Thats what sets the Y apart for me...
Lockers are big and people are sop friendly.
+ Remodeled areas are a good improvement
- Please reduce the high water pressure in the men's showers. Flow restrictors would save water and reduce water/sewer charges
- Please reinstall the water hose in the men's steam room so the sitting areas can be flushed.
Thank you.
I like the pool, and sream room
Clean and great offerings. Love the seperate sauna, steam room and hot tub.
Nice equipment!
Friendly staff. Great exercise options. The mix of people...
Our kids love the child zone, which makes it easy to go since they are always excited
The pools and the aquatic classes offered are wonderful. However, the limited free parking is not a positive for this YMCA.
If you are attending multiple classes and need to shower you will be paying when you exit! It may not seem like much but if you are paying extra three to four days a week it adds up. I hope they extend the parking time in the future.
Clean, nice layout
The staff is amazing! I love that food is provided, there are so many fun activities, plenty of swim time, and exciting weekly field trips. My son has been attending the YMCA since he was 3 years old, and he looks forward to going back every year. He always comes home talking about how much fun he had and all the friends he made.
Our favorite is Ms. Megan at the SpartanNash location. She is very communicative and wonderful with the kids. My son looks forward to seeing her every summer!
For my toddler, the dance class is the perfect time commitment both in length of each class and how many are offered. I like that parking is validated, which takes off another layer of stress. It’s more affordable than other dance classes with less pressure. I like that I don’t have to be a gym member to access classes. Staff have all been so friendly and helpful.
