What could we do to improve?

The women's locker room needs a redo. Too many changing rooms and toilets. Not enough showers. Ceiling vents are dirty, shower curtains are ripped and need replacement. Shower faucets often dont work correct. The showers should be redone with doors...not curtains. The swim suit dryer should be relocated to the shower area so wet suits aren't carried across the toilet /sink are causing a slipping and electrocution risk.

The front membership office at the entrance is an embarrassing mess with stuff piled up.

What could we do to improve?

I would love to see improvements to the spin program and equipment. Several of the bikes are not fully functioning, particularly the monitors, and upgrading the bikes—or creating a dedicated spin room with newer equipment—would make a big difference. I’d also like to see more spin classes and additional instructors. A “Weights & Wheels” class, like the one offered at the Westport YMCA, would be a great addition, combining strength training with cycling.

I also feel the monthly membership fee is high relative to the quality and condition of some of the exercise equipment and facilities. The mats are showing significant wear, the resistance bands are often dirty, and the exercise room floor frequently feels gritty. It would also be helpful to have more consistent cleaning of equipment between classes, although members should certainly do their part by wiping equipment down after use.

Overall, I really value the YMCA and the fitness programs, but I think investing in the equipment, cleanliness, and variety of classes would make the membership feel more worthwhile.

What could we do to improve?

THE LACK OF COMPASSION FOR A SENIOR CITIZEN IS UNUSUALLY HIGH LUCKILY NOT ALLOWING SILVER SNEAKERS TO PAY FOR THEIR MEMBERSHIP WHICH IS THE MOST DOMINANT INSURANCE AVAILABLE TO SENIOR CITIZENS. I CAN AFFORD A FAMILY MEMBERSHIP. I KNOW A LOT OF PEOPLE THERE FIND IT DIFFICULT TO BE PAYING CLOSE TO $100 A MONTH FOR A MAN AND WIFE SENIOR CITIZEN I DO NOT RECOMMEND THE SOMEVIEW YMCA TO ANYONE ,BUT IF IF ASKED I TELL THEM I ENJOY THE FACILITY IT'S CLEAN AND VERY FUNCTIONAL IT'S THEIR BUSINESS PRACTICE THAT I AM NOT FOND OF.
