Impressed with the Waltham branch. They just updated their weights and machine in the weightlifting room and it’s an excellent move!! Love the staff and they are super helpful too!

Have been utilizing the outdoor pool in these warmer summer days. Weekdays are lovely and not terribly busy, even with the camps. On a very hot summer Saturday it was, of course, busier; however, there was always some space to float around and adult swim every hour for fifteen minutes.

My son is new to this particular summer camp. He loves going everyday and comes home tired. The staff is very friendly and patient with him!! The pool is awesome!!

Great facility. Get great workouts in without feeling judged. They deserve 5 stars but the only negative I have to add is that there's alot of people, young adults/kids that goof off a little.

YMCA in Greater Boston, especially the Waltham facility has a wonderful property and buildings, indoor and outdoor (seasonal) pool and good variety of programs. Staff is friendly, helpful, positive. Members who go there have a nice sense of community. Price is reasonable for all that they offer.

I just started taking group swimming lesson at Waltham Y. The facility is clean, not too crowded.My swim instructor is Adam. He is fantastic. He is really good at breaking down the strokes, suggesting drills to each individual's needs to get comfortable with the strokes. He is patient and is able to give us individual attention despite being in a group setting. He has a calm demeanor which instills confidence as you try to learn to swim as an adult.

I love this gym. The staff are super kind and helpful. The only negative is that the pool is not great. It’s often VERY crowded in the lap lanes, and has so much chlorine in it that it stings my skin. However, all other aspects besides the pool are great! I highly recommend this gym if swimming is not your primary form of exercise.

We frequently take my 6 year old swimming, but he never seems to progress in his swimming ability. After only 5 weeks of swim class at the YMCA, he is gaining confidence in the water, is swimming more independently, and is more comfortable going under water. He also loves his teachers and the class!

The Y is clean and perfect for my needs. Instructors are friendly. Great treadmills where you can choose to walk or run in beautiful places in the world. Today I hiked in Utah.
