This place is not black people friendly.They give us a hard time everyweek we are there.

I love this place. The staff is the best! Aubrey is THE MAN!!!! I’ll never have another main Gym as long as I’m in the area. Love this place!Kenya and Anne, at the front, are ALWAYS so sweet and welcoming. They’re my friends now haha. Overall it’s a great environment that I strongly recommend to anyone looking to maintain or improve their physical health journey.

My special needs daughter and I use the indoor walking track frequently. We have always enjoyed our visits. Patrons are extremely kind when my daughter acts out. It is a very fun experience to observe activities on the separate basketball courts.We have never had a poor or bad experience with staff on our hundreds of visits. They have always been kind and supportive.I look forward to tomorrows walk!

Great 👍 place

The app let me sign up to swim today, but the Y was closed. No signs about today’s closure, Disappointing.

Been pretty happy with my local Y. I especially love attending classes here and utilizing the childcare to have some time to take care of myself. The only drawback is that some of the front desk staff are very young and not super professional. It’s clearly the first jobs some of them have had. This can sometimes cause wait times at the desk or trouble getting equipment. A little tightening up would make this a five star branch.

If you are a swimmer and or use the pool for a disability or health issue this Y is not conducive to your working out here. They will not tell you this when you sign up, but youll need to ask specifically to see the pool schedule for the entire year to gather this. The swim team that is nationally known is of utmost importance at this facility and you will need to look elsewhere for a place that looks to serve all its clients equally.

Great staff. I am always pleased when I pick up my kid from after school care. They take good care of him and wear him out, mostly! Thanks y’all!

The downtown Durham YMCA is larger, has better hours (and better pool hours), and better service, including towel service. But then Chapel Hill is half the size of Durham. The renovation to the weight and cardio areas has made both of them much more functional. The pool hours are quite restrictive, and the pool can get crowded. I havent had problems with the staff, though others seem to have, based on the reviews here.One thing I admire about the Y as an organization (as opposed to the Y as a facility) is its strong role in our community. The youth sports director, for instance, is a positive force for good. The Y Guides program connects dads and daughters to one another and to other dads and daughters. The Y is also very inclusive (though could do a lot more to include low-income people in our town).

Amazing swim team (YOTA) with state of the art workout machine. Yearly challenges and lots of motivation from staff. Simply amazing!!

Came to YMCA as a workout facility before work at 9, suddenly both locker rooms went under renovations (projected 4 months). Talked with aquatics director who was very understanding, but unfortunately couldnt help with refunding membership due to lack of shower services. Love the YMCA but the building isnt operational.

Great place to work out, though the swim team takes up a huge chunk of time on the pool

Like the outside set up for strength training

Everything you need under one roof, but there are a few minuses. The hours are not the most convenient, especially if you go at night. No towel service. Otherwise a nice little gym.

Jennifer Hartig harassed my friend and made us feel very uncomfortable and unwelcome at this establishment.

A mediocre membership for a premium price. I would have preferred to have rated them 2.5 stars, but that option is not available. I wish for the day when I can speak of my community Y with words of high praise, but to recommend them without warning readers about several significant problems would be misleading. My life circumstances often dictate that I work out later in the evening. This Y is not well-harmonized to this need. Evening staff here have always had the annoying tendency to want to close early (up to 15 minutes early) and to be unpleasant about it if that doesnt square well with your needs. Weekend closing times are far too early. Holiday hours are inadequate and involve very early closing times that are not advertised on the on-line activity schedule, or even available on their telephone message that lists hours (i.e., expect to gear up and drive over only to find the place closed--after you called and checked the website).Aerobic machines are always quite inadequate for crowds earlier in the evening and are often in poor repair. Weight machines are often broken for long periods of time. The machines they have cover only large muscle groups and are insufficient for a complete muscular workout. Courtesy is poor in the workout room. Time and set limits are very frequently broken, resulting in frayed nerves and unnecessarily lengthy workouts. It is not uncommon to wait for 10-15 minutes for a weight machine, or for someone who has been violating the one-set rule to become testy and territorial if you ask to work in with them. Attendants are disinterested in encouraging rule-abiding machine usage and wont intervene when someone wishes to dominate a machine.I think prospective members need to know that aggressive encounters in the parking lot are not uncommon, especially following basketball games. Some of the encounters I have witnessed would make many people uncomfortable and feel unsafe. Staff often seem disinterested when incidents are reported.In my experience, concerns memorialized in telephone e-mail messages are never returned. I wish my perspective of staff here was as sanguine as one of the earlier reviewers. There are certainly nice people working there. There are also plenty of folks working there who are not yet well-suited to positions involving customer relations. In my experience, the ratio is about 60/40.In the final analysis, if you are looking for a place with a pool, a basketball court and a racquetball court under one roof, this might be the place you have to go. If you are looking for a good place for weights and aerobics, go to O2 Fitness.

Really unfriendly staff and very very ignorant fitness director Jennifer Hartig.

We have done basketball for our sons here. Plus afterschool care. Top notch programs. Friendly staff. A community treasure.

Great people and amazing swim teamGO YOTA

Friendly staff. Everyone wants to help

Aquatic director: abrasive, offensive and brusque. Highly recommend choosing another pool/workout facility

Rude staff - will not be returning.

Best place in the world for youth growth and enlightenment.

Friendly lifeguards, Poor management, Not worth membership fees especially during the renovations, No showers.

Older gym that hasnt been updated in years.

The name is misleading.

Mean staffs no equipment

I love the y

Wooooo
