Very friendly staff. The gym equipment covers all my needs and is very often available for use because the gym isn’t too busy.
The front desk staff are awesome. In general the gym is very clean. (I find that the downstairs women's dressing room doesn't smell great when you go to the back row of lockers)
enjoy my classes.

Steam room!!! The best way to relax after a good workout
Love the Thursday morning Zumba class with Lola. Also appreciate the nice ladies at the front desk. However the speaker/music system in the Zumba room often doesn’t work. And the floor in the Zumba room needs maintenance.
family-like atmosphere, very clean and welcoming, great equipment
Location is super close to my work and Body Pump classes. The workout equipment floor is a nice-sized area too.
Friendly staff, great equipment, excellent location.

The friendly, family atmosphere.
Love the Y, and the downtown location is great. It is convenient, and has all the equipment I need.
So far so good. It's convenient.
YMCA looks like Durham, diverse & inclusive. Staff is friendly & helpful, facility is well equipped & clean. I especially like the indoor track for running when it's too cold, rainy or hot outdoors.
I never go to the downtown Y--I go to the Lakewood Y, which I love. But I HATE getting constant requests to fill out these surveys. It is annoying and it never stops.
I needed a place where I could exercise with low impact. The pool at the Downtown Durham YMCA was the perfect solution for me. Staff is always friendly, fellow members share lanes well when it’s busy… the parking is always hit or miss, so, I typically try to swim on off-peak hours.
Friendly staff, great teachers!
