Hot yoga! Great instructors and a wonderful environment, also the only branch in the area with a space for sled work.... So good for my knees!
Locker rooms were clean. Towels service was nice having both bath and hand towels . Self service lockers were very convenient.
My favorite place to workout by far. Welcoming staff and the cleanest facility
Great space, right downtown. Everyone is so nice and it’s a clean little gym.
Convenient location, facility is clean, staff are very welcoming and friendly, and I like that it has a sauna.
For a senior like me with a fixed income it is a little pricey but other than that it is a wonderful thing cause it helps a lot of people from all levels
Everything
Everyone is great and so very welcoming. I enjoy going to the gym and also bring the family into another YMCA in the area.
Great location
A great gym experience with so much equipment. It’s clean and well kept. The staff are super friendly and helpful. And the classes I have taken so far have all been really good.
I go to Poyner specifically because of Byron's class! He is a gift!
Not over crowded, great location, very clean, great classrooms and classes, awesome instructors, staff is very friendly.
I don’t expect a downtown ymca to be so comfortable with a great geometric flow from one floor to another
I've already invited friends and they have joined. I like the fact it's an "adult" community and more for those who are focused on building powerful bodies, and I love that I can go to other locations, which I do, to have other Y experiences. I love the look of the building and the professional atmosphere. I love the cleanliness of it all.
What a beautiful facility right in downtown Raleigh! I like all the windows and big airy spaces. I hope the YMCA will add hot yoga to other locations too.
Great hot yoga sculpt class on Saturday morning!

Friendly staff, great hot yoga classes! I love how new and well maintained everything is. I feel comfortable going to the gym. You really hire great people that make the place special.
Parking is a bit tricky and the homelessness situation is getting worse which makes it sometimes rather unsafe to walk downtown.
