The Staff, the facility and location
I like the variety of equipment and classes the Y has to offer. The staff is always friendly and helpful, even at 6 am. Even though I am more agnostic, I like the fellowship the Y offers.
Byron’s dance classes, being in community , such a positive environment. I’ve been coming since my kids started their first swim lessons nearly two decades ago and still come even though my nest is now empty. I imagine, if I’m fortunate with my health, to come another few decades.
Love the Y! My kids always want to play in the childcare, go to camps and swim at the pool in the summer. It's so nice to have a place where I can enjoy exercising while the kids are having fun.
Wonderful (and plenty of) classes to choose from.
Friendly, clean, professional; great class options.

The Alexander Family Y has been my home Y for close to 20 years. The staff is always nice and helpful, and the classes are awesome! A+
I really enjoy the atmosphere at the Alexander YMCA. It is friendly, diverse, clean, and I enjoy the many different activities that are available.
Love the Y and have been coming consistently for more than a decade.
Locker rooms could use a little TLC. Just getting a little old and dingy. Steam room and sauna are often out of commission.
Also would be great to see a cold plunge added at some point.
Thanks,

I also use Poyner (I have an office downtown so that is convenient) and Kraft (We live in Cary so sometimes it is not convenient to drive back to Alexander) but Alexander is my "home" YMCA. I have been going since 2015 or so and I love it. The facility is great (keep the steam room going! :) ) the staff is great-it just feels comfortable to me. Also, the lobby area rocks, because you can sit and get a little work done before or after a workout.
Poyner and Kraft are great too, Alexander is more like an old friend.
I don’t like surveys.
Is anybody working on getting the A/C straightened out? Ever since you replaced the roof top units the room with the treadmills, ellipticals and other cardio machines has been warmer than it used to be.
Also it seems that you are as busy as you were before Covid, at least at the time I come, 6-8 PM, so how about opening the downstairs desk back up so the people parking across the street don't have to walk around. Don't mind walking but it is getting cold.
Nice facility. Great yoga classes.
Variety of classes, instructors, general environment. The Y is inclusive and is a wonderful community for everyone. Equipment is nice.

Great instructors. Excellent equipment. Clean and well maintained.
