Reasonable price for NY, very basic room, great location, friendly staff . Haven't used the other facilities.

Nicola Medrano

This place shouldn't be called the YMCA, all they care about Is money & saving money. What happened to the community feel of the YMCA? If u charge a lot, u should stay open longer! Peace out WS Y!!

Raza Ram

Pilates with Mike on Mon. & Wed. @ 12:30pm is excellent. Great for all levels.

Court Passant

Be sure to check out my spin class . Sunday AM and Monday and Tuesday nights .

David Rossetti

There are single private bathrooms by the cardio rooms . Usually cleaner than the ones in the locker room .

Roger Kessler

Def., need to where shower slippers or sandles while showering . People are in and out constantly, just about zero privacy, just be aware of it..

Tynee Goshow

Take my zumba class fridays at 5:30pm and hip hop aerobics sundays at 5:30pm check out www.dancewithcasie.com

ᴡ macmahon

If you're an old guy, just hang out in the locker room with your balls proudly on show. It seems to be a rule.

Judy Tenenbaum

Be careful swimming . The lifeguards are reactive and not pro-active so if you are headed for a collision, they will offer you an icepack AFTER and won't try to stop it before!

Tara

The zumba classes ROCK! Wed and Thurs at 7:30p. So fun and good looking teachers , too! :)

Jeremy Tauber

West Side Seido Karate - Tues /Thurs 7:30-9:30pm & Sat 1:30-2:30pm

If you are over 30, this is not for you - unless u get a room at 12 or 13th floors. Cute staff though.

Marc Mapplebeck

Finally in the city !

Alan Samuels

Best value racquetball and squash in the city . Monthly gym membership covers FREE use of the courts (4 racquetball, 2 squash ) Read more

Joe Cooper

Really? Naked men in a men's locker room ? Shocking. Maybe if you are too put off by older men soaking in the heat nude, you may want to shower at home. Whiners. At the gym no less!

Chris Seitz

great deal for 2 people, less of a deal for 1

Peter Shankman

During the week, get there at 5am or after 10sm for a swim - Between 6am and 9am, it's a bit crowded .

moe fad

It's like your university dorms by the way.

Glen Ganaway

Science of Mind meets in the side conference room on Sundays at 11am.

Krista Harris

After a workout, check out new 63bites downstairs for healthy snacks and Stumptown coffee .

Peter Shankman

One of the best lap pools in the city - Lap swimming from 5am to 3:45pm. No excuse not to get your laps in!

Sayle Milne

Holding on hope and a great workout.

Court Passant

The classic experience. Cheap clean hotel , great gym , neighborly feel. The Village People were right.

Jeff Mack

The best Gym in the WestSide!!!

Jacqueline Chan

Pool is a little cold.

Ahea Swayz

Sauna and steam

Nicola Medrano

Expensive. Keep increasing prices & services diminishing.. For ex, holiday weekends they cut out as many classes as possible to save money . Schedule sucks! Closes at 745?? Is this NYC?Look elsewhere.

Emily Speer

Core Training on Saturday mornings is a great start to my weekend.

Daniel Cadenas

There's an unlocked clean private bathroom in 12th floor, bathroom #9

Yoshi Manale
