While the gym could have more equipment, and the time it takes to repair broken equipment is a little long, this is still my favorite gym facility in Flagstaff. The staff are friendly, the community and youth programs are great, and you'll always feel like they are making the most of the money they are receiving. I'd happily continue supporting this Y over all the other facilities I've been to.
Somewhat unprofessional. Weird hours. Trainers/classes monopolize the best slaces/equipment even when "open." I would not recommend joining unless you have kids to utilize daycare.
Location and slow-paced vibe are the best qualities.
Decent place to work out.
I came to the YMCA, because it's closer to where I work and live and because it was a little cheaper than my other gym. I was going to cancel, because I missed having a good shower and steam room, but decided to stay for the convenience and access to the nice basketball court.
positives
+fairly extensive workout area. Good cardio equipment. Not the best selection of weights and machines, but plenty for me. Weight machines they do have are high end and fairly new.
+cheaper than Summit/FAC - not that much cheaper, but the extra $5 I saved was appreciated. I think getting a nice shower/hot tub with clean towels may be worth $5 to me personally, but if you dont use those amenities, it may save you money)
+basketball - great full basketball court. basketballs to borrow.
+climbing equipment, childcare, etc - it has a lot of options. I just havent tried as I'm only in for cardio, weights, and basketball
+rarely crowded.
+fairly good hours. Other than Sunday evenings, there isn't a time I really can't go in. If you want to go in Sunday evenings, I recommend FAC.
negatives
-staff is hit-or-miss. Some really friendly staff. Some that are annoyed to get off their phones to answer questions. Summit and FAC definitely have more friendly and helpful staff if that is important to you.
-no towels. You have to bring and launder your own if you shower there
-can be a little dingy/dirty at times or at least look that way
-lockerroom is tiny, dirty, and lacking in amenities. Showers are cramped. No steam room, sauna, or hot tub. If more than two people are in the locker room at one time, you will bump into others and feel like a sardine.
-bad wifi and entertainment. I don't need TVs on all the equipment nor good wifi to enjoy myself while working out, but if you do, it's worth noting. Hard to even stream Netflix on their wifi and the TVs built into the cardio machines have only a handful of fuzzy stations. Wifi is plenty good for music and podcast streaming. Wifi is a pain to join and makes you sign away your first born and then redirects you to a commercial advertisement.
The staff is really rude, they sit on their phones at the front desk and if you ask a question they treat you like your bothering them. No one ever knows whats going on there and if you call for information they always say they will get back to you and never do.
My three kids hate the daycare staff that watches them while I workout. (Not to say they are all bad, there is one guy and one girl my kids love when they are working. They actually pay attention to my kids, let them rock climb and play board games with them). Ashley is one of the staff and my two daughters say is very mean and never lets them do anything. My son also says she just sits there at the desk on her phone or a computer and yells at the kids to stop doing things. Ive stopped bringing my kids to them because its become more of a fight to get them to stay.
Exercise equipment is always "under maintenance" for months at a time! And the hours are horrible!! They close early on friday nights and sundays they dont open until 10am and close at 4pm.
I will not be continuing my membership. This place is a joke!
The only nice thing here is the facility. Otherwise a complete ripoff for the price, even more that they decided to take the punching bag away. I wouldn't recommend to anyone!
The girls that work here a rude and disrespectful. If you want to feel like your going to a low class facility run by junior high kids, you'll have that experience Here.
Their Janitor Darrell is an emotionally distubed psychopath! Him and I have had a few run-ins over stupid stuff like using the shower or drinking from the water fountain after cleaning them even though it was all before close. One should never be intimidated from drinking from a fountain or taking a shower at an establishment that you pay to be at and is still within normal operating hour. Combined that with the fact that there is no pool (the pool privileges for the local school were canceled), the hours have been cut ridiculously and the equipment is undermaintained not to mention the decline bench was loose and now has been gone for nearly a month and this place is not worth the cost. Go somewhere else. YOU WILL BE HAPPY YOU DID.
I have been a member of the Flagstaff YMCA since 2013. This branch has a serious staffing issue. It is not uncommon to show up and the doors are locked during hours that it is supposed to be open (usually in the mornings) but has happened at night as well. This is very disappointing as I do like this gym, but if this keeps happening I will go find a more reliable one. Disappointing.

This is a nice facility. The staff is friendly and helpful. What I like the best is that they don't play any music on the sound system. If you wanna jam, you can rock your headphones, but if you don't, you're not subjected to whatever's on the radio.

The one of the best assets of the flag YMCA, is there management of the MEMs swimming pool on fouth street. It is Olympic size and great for lap swimming, perfect temp, very clean and well lite. VERY affordable to non member. Possibly the BEST kept secrets for swimming fitness in Flagstaff. Great work YMCA, please keep up the great work.
Very friendly staff, and very reasonable rates for date night baby sitting for both members and non-members.
Very refreshing good clean atmosphere & excellent staff w/ various workout stations to choose from...
I'm disappointed today! I have been going to the YMCA for a while now. Today I go and the doors are locked. Business hours are 5 a.m. to 10 pm M- Th. No one was there. No employee. I missed my morning workout today. I like that they are open at 5 a.m. Well not today?!?!
Working on making this review better. Bring it YMCA.
