Member Testimonials
The instructors!
The friendly staff, the clean equipment and locker rooms, the number of other members (I never have to wait for a treadmill or machine!), and the location!
It’s so close to my apartment and very clean and the staff whenever you go are so friendly. I wish it had a steam room but the sauna is still wonderful
I like the presence of towels in the locker rooms as well as the really dedicated yoga teaching staff - I’m sure all instructors there are dedicated but I only do the yoga so basing my comment on those teachers;) 
I like the friendliness of front desk staff. I love the button at the top of steps !! 
Very convenient location; great, challenging but fun classes; always clean; staff is friendly
Friendly, welcoming, clean, great location, equipment well kept
Poyner YMCA has the best sauna of any YMCA I've ever been to. It's what keeps me coming back!
Clean. Well maintained. Good selection of workout options.
LOVE THE STAFF! They truly make my day every time I go. And it's not just one or two people. It's all of them. It's an amazing group of people at the Poyner!
Love it. It’s clean, well maintained, has everything I need
I love going to this Y for Yin Yoga. Coming out of class and heading to a downtown establishment is such a blessing.
Downtown location and always is relatively clean. Not too crowded ever.
Very well-equipped! Peaceful gym environment
Staff are always friendly. Gym is clean. I would like to see more of a selection of classes each evening, but being able to use other gyms is helpful for the time being
The vibe and the hot yoga studio
The instructors are great! The class offerings and times are super convenient if you work downtown.
Great classes. Well maintained. Clean.
Awesome high-end facility (especially hot yoga room). Love the front desk staff.  amazing class instructors. 
If only the parking wasn’t so difficult. 
I love the hot yoga classes and overall how clean and new everything is. The vibe is great.
Just wished there were free parking options during the day and Sloan would also teach some late afternoon or weekend classes. She’s SO good
N/A
Great location, friendly and knowledgeable staff, decent/above average workout equipment. But the best thing is the hot yoga studio. Would suggest more of instructors like Grace, Alaina, Cody.
This Y is always clean, has friendly and inviting people working and working out, and honestly the best part are the cold lavender towels at the end of any hot yoga class. I go just for those honestly!
This is our 'home' gym that is in downtown Raleigh and walking distance from our house. The staff is very friendly and I've known some for over 2 years now. I like the facilities, particularly the machines, and the fact that there is more than enough open space on the floor so that I'm not in anyone's way.
Convenience. Not crowded.
Convenient location, uncrowned facilities, high quality facilities, classes, and sauna quality.
Beautiful, upscale environment, professional and friendly staff, great hot/warm yoga classes.
I look forward to the hot yoga classes with Alaina, Dana, and Grace!
Everything
Everything is perfect, the people, the staff, the classes, and the gym is always clean. Thank you for all you do! Special shoutout to Joy and her amazing staff, they always go above and beyond. You are appreciated!
