Welcoming staff
I love the YMCA and the community spirit the YMCA provides.
Location, the people, the activities…
I like everything about the downtown Durham YMCA!!! It's ALL inclusiveness, the equipment that WORKS (occasional treadmills have problems but when reported personnel are immediately on top of it), the indoor track, the gym, the pool, the daycare, the overall cleanliness of the facility, the personable, knowledable and helpful staff/personnel, etc., even parking... I simply have NO complaints!!!
Staff are amazing and despite the age of the facility it is well-kept.
I like being able to come and work on my Basketball skills.
Clean, God equipment, In door pool

Location, price, down-to-earth fellow members.
I feel very welcome, and it’s always so lively. I mostly use the strength equipment, and everyone is so respectful and kind. I also recently tried my first Zumba class, and it was so fun!
Great staff selection!!!
Facilities are fine, but the best part is being around people from rh community, and that includes staff.

The Y is a welcoming and wonderful place. My teens love the basketball court and 6 hours of dedicated open gym hours on the weekends. I love the classes with caring and knowledgeable instructors. I love that the employees treat me with kindness and encouragement, it makes the Y feel like my home away from home.
The people. And the facility is looking better.
Friendly staff. Basketball gym and swimming pool is the best combination of amenities at any YMCA in Durham/Chapel Hill.
The pool and most of the people except one Front Dest Rep.
