Spokane Valley YMCA - YMCA of the Inland Northwest

I have been a member of the YMCA for years, the gym and its amenities are good. However the hours of operation on the weekends are disappointing. I am beginning to feel like being a member is not worth the money. They need to be comparable with their competitors such as MUV fitness.

Love it. Very helpful and encouraging staff

Now the YMCA supports queers. This is suppose to be a Christian organization. I'm done with the YMCA. Go woke, go broke.

This place is incredible and the childcare offered is priceless. All of the child watch employees are wonderful and take such great care of the kids.

Great place for teens. They can play basketball, swim, workout. You can also sign up for spin, yoga, dance, zumba. Perfect outlet for winter blues!

A club for the social elite in the Inland Northwest. Premium prices ($90 a month) under the guise of charity but actually socialism. The high rates go directly into feeding the ceos bank account. You pay obscene amounts for the "gym" which is unclean with dated equipment. On top of that, the kids programs usually cost extra, even of they're on your membership.Very liberal environment, and there's a lot of old people that loiter around trying to flirt with married women and college girls. It's disgusting. If you dont have a mask on your membership is terminated, end of story. It's a very toxic mental health environment in general would avoid at all costs

The YMCA is a great resource for the community. They have a clean facility and offer cardio, cable machines and free weights. The have a recreation pool and a lap pool as well as a gym for basketball.

We have had a membership here multiple times through the years (10 or so) and finally said forget it once and for all. The hours they typically have had for open swim are during times when kids are in school or evening when they are home eating dinner. Roughly. There was a time (maybe it isnt this way still?) When the open swim in afternoon was around the time school got out but it was short lived before activities started up that took over the pool. So confusing. How is that family friendly? Makes literally no sense.In reply to YMCAs reply - this has been really many years. Well before covid. But I appreciate their reply

This ymca is not for families! As much as it tries to cater to families it does not. Anytime we have gone to swim with our kids there is a water aerobics class in the pool and they do not let our family swim during this class even though there are lifeguards available and no one else in the pool! It is so frustrating. The kicked us out of the pool and we sat and watched the lifeguards look at an empty pool for the next 2 hours. But for some reason we were now allowed to swim!!!! Sooooo frustrating! The gym is always taken over by pickle ball and only a few hours in the evening dedicated to family time in the gym! We got a membership to utilize the facility for our homeschool family and it is not working out! We are very disappointed! This gym also is needing an overhaul and update! This is a picture of the pool when we were kicked out because it was not family swim and the lifeguard watching 2 adults swim, that left shortly after taking this pic and then the lifeguard was watching no one! This gym is the worst!!!

The owner is a very nasty, disrespectful, confrontational, and overly sensitive individual who argues against the honest reviews of their members. The owner feels the need to lie to defend their filthy sauna and locker rooms especially at the Central Y, there has been a bandage on a shower stall for over 3 months, they do not properly scrub and sanitize these areas. The owner stated they encourage their lifeguards to pick and choose what rules they enforce, they’d rather harass someone doing a few pushups by themselves in the sauna, while saying nothing about people not showering before entering the hot tub or pool, they can be covered in sweat or just take their shoes off and put their feet in, owner says that’s fine. Then you want to challenge me saying I should bring this to your management. Check your communication with your management before making ASSsumptions. It’s easy and respectful to share the only studio space but, you clearly have no respect for members do you? Many do not need your groups yet you seem proud that fell alienated from the parts of the gym we need throughout much of the day. You choose to condemn your members rather simply speak up to your instructors, it’s sad that you have a problem with others outside of your groups using the gym, you seem to have a severely skewed perspective. Maybe you can work on your sensitivity and cope better with reality, you don’t have to cry and fight with people who leave entirely reasonable and honest reviews about your failed services. Do better.
