Lafayette Family YMCA Downtown is a clean and friendly gym located at 250 Main St, Lafayette, IN. Though compact, it offers weight-lifting machines, treadmills, free weights, and more. Members also get access to the larger facility on 18th Street. The gym features a welcoming environment that caters to diverse groups of people, including downtown office workers. Conveniently located with a parking garage, it’s a great spot for anyone working or living nearby.
While the gym is small, it remains scrupulously clean, with new equipment and additional amenities like towels and hair dryers. Group fitness classes are enjoyable but somewhat limited, and the staff ensures a familial and inclusive atmosphere. The primary downside is the occasional difficulty in finding parking.

The group classes are so much fun. This location is relatively small though.

Nice gym with new, clean facilities and friendly staff. It is small (though you get admission to the bigger Y in Lafayette too, if you want things like a pool), but I have never had to wait for an elliptical or bike, and they have a full weight training machine circuit. The convenient location is the biggest reason I signed up. Most users seem to be downtown office workers, so it is not one of those uber-fit gym scenes (which can be awkward if you're like me and can never remember how to set up the weight machines!!!). It is not a super-fancy gym, but they do provide towels and hair dryers, and the showers are really clean.

It's a little hard to find the first time, so be sure to ask around and look for signs posted in the building. Awesome location to exercise for the downtown pedestrian. Parking garage is attached to building. Small capacity gym, but membership provides access to both downtown and 18th street locations.Group fitness classes here are sparse, but they are adding more as the demand increases. I highly recommend trying the group classes, no matter your level of fitness.
