Love this place! The pool is my favorite part..any time of day or evening. Always a wonderful swim! Courteous and professional staff. The aquatics dept has something for literally everyone. Last, I have to mention the view..the open sky is spectacular. They do put a bubble over the pool when the weather cools off so we can still keep swimming all year round. Well worth trekking 280 for!!

I havent been coming here that long, but it is a great facility. It isnt really that crowded at peak times (4:45PM - 6:30PM). No complaints at all

Well-maintained facilities and equipment with friendly staff. Only knock we ever had against this YMCA location was inconsistency with schedule communication between app, website, and posted schedules for the pool. Other than that, we had a great experience during our time at the Greystone YMCA.Update: We are no longer Greystone YMCA members; but, we do recommend them if you are looking for a quality gym with a variety of fitness activities in this area.

Its clean. Cant say much for the staff though. Was waiting on my friend to get done working out. They basically told me they thought i was lying and needed to leave. Keep in mind id only been waiting for about 10 minutes. Ive never felt so uncomfortable or so unwelcome. I was thinking about getting a membership but there is not a chance id be a member anywhere that treated people like that.

The excellent executive director, Leonard Speed, has breathed fresh air into this site. He has dramatically increased the warmth and professionalism of the facility. He should be commended for its dramatic growth and overall improvement of its functioning.

Love the Y! Staff is friendly, they just did updates, equipment is rarely ever broken (even then, not for long), its very clean, and theres a massive parking lot. The staff takes any claims of guys taking photos or being inappropriate very seriously. There are multiple TVs if you want to keep up with the news. Most of the patrons are pretty nice and considerate. Favorite gym and worth the $40/month!

Young people who work desk are only concerned with their smart phone. Bathrooms are nasty need repairs, need to replace rusty elements. Regular schedules are not kept.

I love the Greystone YMCA! It is very clean and the locker rooms are very well kept and smell fantastic! Its not like a sweaty locker room! I have been a member of the YMCA for a very long time now and have been to many of their locations including Alabaster, Pelham, Trussville, Shades Valley, Tuscaloosa, and the Trussville location. I have found that although this location of the YMCA doesnt have an indoor pool, the covered one suits just fine for me. The Pelham location and the Birmingham location downtown are by far the largest. This is the closest one to where I currently live, so I find it very convenient and very clean. I love the fact that this location has tennis courts! No other location that I mentioned have tennis courts except the Shades Valley one (I think). I am very excited to find a group ex class for yoga and pilates! I am very very pleased with the hours and the convenience.

This is a huge disappointment compared to the Pelham YMCA. This is a small pool and has no indoor pool. Water is not even cold but what I consider to be lukewarm. If you have 2 children that cannot pass a swimming test they both have to be within arms length from you. A 10 year old cannot practice swimming on their back because if they move an arms length away the lifeguard blows the whistle. This is not a family friendly pool. Website is horrible.

They recently updated the mens and womens locker rooms, however they are carpeted. The carpet smells pretty bad already from being constantly wet. Also their weight room is probably the worst out of all the Birmingham YMCAs. Staff is always courteous and friendly.

I really want to like the Greystone branch, but I have several issues. 1) the locker rooms (I can only comment on mens) are gross and outdated. 2) the pool isnt child/family friendly (only a lap pool and nothing fun about it like Homewoods or Pelhams). 3) The cardio room always smells awful.I think this branch really needs an overhaul/updating! I do like it for all the family programs though.

I left another gym in the Birmingham area not related to the YMCA. I came back to this Y due to the Community Atmosphere, The leader Mr. Leonard Speed and His excellent/superior staff, community feeling and it is always clean. Blessings on their efforts.
