We've been members for 15 years here. It's not the fanciest gym in the valley and parking can sometimes be a pain, but the staff is wonderful and the members truly seem to care about each other. The pools are a great bonus, and the body pump, yoga and spin classes are a major highlight for my family.
Great place for the family. I take my family here once a week to go swimming in the aquatic center. Upstairs gym is usually full. But other than that a great place.
The kindest people. The emplyees are super nice and so many programs to choose from.
Good place & staff but I continually shake my head at those running the place (who knows who that is, every time I've inquired about strange decisions they answer: "that's decided in a different office"). Latest head scratchers after closing the pool for a month in "their slowest period" (mid-Aug is slow?? Amount of ppl swimming the day it reopened seems to crack that) and posting a long note with a headline that doesn't mention "POOL" or "CLOSED", they've placed huge signs every 10 feet saying "NO CELL PHONES".
And most hilarious, they cut off the hot water at the shower next to the kiddie pool - that every kid uses before swimming. So...if you don't want ppl using it you could put ONE sign next to it and....people would know!! Novel idea, but too simple! The Y seems to run on triviality & disgust at ppls behavior - but being in the north end you don't tell ppl what you'd rather they do, no - thinly-disguised contempt is our way! Hooray!
HARASSMENT FROM THE DIRECTOR
I DO NOT FEEL SAFE OR WELCOMED AT THE YMCA ANY LONGER.
Scott the director as well as a few of his employees have harassed me for taking cat naps in the parking lot after a work out, before I go to my job. I usually go early in the morning with my partner who can walk to work from there and I take a cat nap before a shift at my job. Twice now I've had someone come out to wake up and harass me about sleeping in my car even though plenty of people hang out in their cars in the parking lot. Not to mention the fact that there are NO SIGNS OR MEMBERSHIP PAPERWORK that says anything against it. the first time this happened the employee asked me if I was homeless! the second time, Scott assumed I was camping in the parking lot and told me I couldn't sleep there overnight. I explained everything to him -refer to the top- and told him there wasn't any written rule against taking a nap in the parking lot. he said that the parking lot was for members only, I told him AGAIN I am a member and that I wasn't sleeping overnight, I was taking a nap before my shift at work. he put his hand up and told me to be quiet, that the parking lot is used for people to use the facility and then leave. I explained again that there are no signs or paperwork that explains this as a rule. HE TOLD ME IT DIDNT MATTER, THOSE WERE RULES AND IM EXPECTED TO COMPLY. I was so shocked at this situation that I finally just said ok only so he would leave me alone. this was so poorly handled that my partner and I are considering changing our membership to a different gym. I've loved the Y up until this incident and now I don't feel safe or welcomed there.

Good facility for a decent price, but you shouldn't need to come in and fill out a form to cancel your membership. Feels too much like entrapment.

Increased payment double without notice !
They have my email & phone number but they didn't notice me .
the manager claim she send me a letter to my mail ..which I didn't receive it as I told her ..almost a year they taking extra from my bank account ..
If it is up to me I was canceling my membership right now , but I have kids
Love the group fitness instructors. Lots of great classes with positive people. Great vibes here... No need to dress for a fitness fashion show and everyone is kind and considerate. And my kids love the swimming pool and drop slide!

Very convenient hours and central location. Lots of staff to assist. Could improve in many areas, but will not detail at this time. Overall, it is a good place to workout.

I just love the staff here and the instructors of the swim fit classes, there are so many classes to choose from and all different levels of difficulty and time of day to fit anyone's schedule. I would recommend it for the older or out of shape people tring to get back to it that can't do treadmill and harder exercise bikes , Aqua fitness was a good fit for me , thank you YMCA

This YMCA was about an average experience for me, the staff were not the greatest, one of them threaten to call the manager on me and my brother for him just standing near me using the equipment ( he is 10 and had the cardio pass, but he staff just had it out for him), but the gym was great except for the lack of weight equipment, not the greatest YMCA i have been to, but was ok
This YMCA has everything I always wanted coffee bar gym a swimming pool friendly and helpful staff clean restroom and showers play area for your children and it's safe I think you and your family would enjoy this YMCA down town Bosie Idaho
Subpar equipment compared to other locations. Extremely busy. I've been to numerous YMCA locations in big cities and they were never as busy. They take forever to get broken equipment fixed. There isn't near enough free weight area for how busy this location gets. 4 free weight benches? Come on. Pretty much the only thing going for it is the convenient location, being that it is downtown. Oh did I mention the parking lot is a nightmare.
The facility is older but well kept. The staff is by far the best that you will find anywhere. They make you feel welcome...
Our whole family attended the Christmas run. It was well created and attended. They offered good shirts, okay gloves, and passable food. It was very packed. On their route they periodically stopped the runners to let cars through the route, which is not ideal for a timed race or for pacing. It wasn't very expensive and was meant more for fun, so it was all good.

PATHETIC excuse for a web site. Cant find anything, except a sales pitch, about signing up for classes. No contact info, no schedules, just a description. A sales pitch! No account info, no specific contact info, not anything useful. Is this really the best the YMCA can do? Let me clue you in, customers appreciate things being easy, not spending insane amounts of time to find out the most basic information. Why would you offer classes and then make it difficult to use them? If this doesn't change then I feel compelled to tell everyone I know how much the YMCA sucks!!!!!!
Discrimination. I was showered with insults by staff and other users about my gender preference and the way I dress. But I use the gender-neutral restroom. Then they had the nerve to tell me I had to fill out a form for sex offender checking after I had already been going there for a while. I believe that was just an effort to chase me away. To first insult me and then ask for the form to be filled out, it was like they were already labeling me a sex offender because they don't like my preference. Bottom line-this is not a good place to go. Staff are disrespectful. Discrimination still happens. Discrimination doesn't always have to do with skin color. As far as I am concerned, this is not a safe or welcoming place because of that.
Go to some of the neighborhood gyms, like 24hr fitness and whatever else. These places don't care how you identify or dress as long as you pay your dues.
What a great place to work out, lots of different types of equipment, and a great variety of classes! So awesome. :)
Best place in Boise to go for fitness and
more. clean,safe and well staffed
I signed my 11 year old son up for the Jr. Chef class even though it was a little spend, $170. He said it was ok except for the two staff members that were in his class supervising, Joseph and Brianna, had told some of the kids they were annoying and told all of the kids "they didn't even have to feed them". Are you kidding me? Is this what I paid $170 for? I will NEVER sign either one of my kids up for anything else through the YMCA and I will make sure I tell everyone I know how some of these people treat children. My husband called and complained and we were pacified with a "Oh I'm so sorry we'll talk to them". Is this really who you want representing your company? People rely on you to take care of their children while in your care NOT this treatment. Completely unacceptable.
