An excellent experience. I swim every day for an hour and shower and sauna. I love the lifeguard staff and desk staff. Very friendly helpful people. My only complaint is the locker room toilet near the showers. It stinks even first thing in the morning. A puddle of stinky water by the stool.

Their birthday parties are sooo great. I had my youngest daughter's birthday party here and it was so relaxed working with Ines and the host of the party was basically an M.C. I had two hosts and they even played with the kids. They were amazing and so helpful. I can't believe it was this easy, I even got to enjoy the party. I definitely will book more birthday parties here.

Very nice facilities. Plenty of treadmills, ellipticals, and the like. Weight room is very comprehensive and most likely has whatever you need for your workout. Has good mix of machines, free weights, etc. Great YMCA! I came from out of town and had no issues transferring/proving my membership. Took maybe 3 minutes

Swimming, yoga and a little bit of stationary cycling and volunteering at the Duluth Area YMCA are the activities I do most often here. My mom took me to a YWCA when I was a little girl in a different state. We had swimming lessons. I have loved swimming ever since. The YMCA has been a stable place for me to go throughout my life. As a teenager I took judo, racquetball and jazz dancing at a YMCA. Also gymnastics and group exercise. The Duluth YMCA has a nice vibe to it. It feels like family. My husband works out at the Duluth Area YMCA almost every weekday.

I shower at local Y's wherever I can find them, this branch is the standard in customer service n facility cleanliness. The staff are amazing n treat you with respect. The mens locker room has always been clean. $2.17 for a shower, coffee, n the optional sauna sess!!

Friendly staff, and good swim teachers but don't look too closely, because human filth is everywhere, and it's enough to make your skin crawl. The same gross hair and gunk clogging the shower drains week after week, used Band-Aids and rats nest hair ties pool side, along with a good 1/8" of dust under the pool benches. Grimy floors, walls, and unkempt lockers in the locker rooms. A ring of greasy dead skin just above the water line in the hot tub. The interior of the building is actually quite beautiful, but it's been so neglected it's depressing.

Do not bring infants to this Y. My son is active and was put in a jumper, not fed, and left to just "cry basically the whole time" (what the staff told me he did). I provided bottles and said he would probably get hungry and he wasn't fed, as well as told them he doesn't like confinement (like jumpers) and can side step and likes to interact with others. When I picked him up, he was off to the side in a jumper with another baby, around no one else including staff, and sitting back in the jumper with puffy eyes and not even interacting with the toys on the jumper. Basically all of which is unheard of for him because of how active he is. And He chugged his bottle when they handed him to me. Another time I worked out without my son with me, I looked in the children's place and saw staff on their phones and babies just sitting off to the side again.

Gym is fun! The pool is fun!... Honestly there are bad reviews on here for no reason...? Nothing smells like poop. The pool is not cloudy... But i will admit the locker room is disgusting. Other then that place is great!

I had told them to hold my account, but they ignore my request and changed me the months I didn't use. They ignored my emails.

A great, cause based facility that believes in healthy lifestyles and growing the community more than anything else. I love the commitment to youth and the community as well as the drive to do more than workout.

great gym, and great kid care while you're there!

This YMCA is disgusting. The minute you walk in you are greeted with the smell of poop from the daycare facility next door. The pool is cloudy, the locker rooms looked like they haven't been cleaned in weeks, cold showers, and I had to pay $5 to park. This YMCA needs to relocate. It is completely inconvenient to have this facility downtown. I wouldn't take a paycheck to come here again.

As a visitor to Duluth today I was graciously hosted at the Duluth Y - both myself and my 1 year old daughter. We were able to use our Twin Cities Y membership with no problem. Wonderful staff, especially in the kids area. Great people there. Facility was clean and had lots to do and a great locker room. What an excellent place.
