I thought this YMCA has dirty water but in reality, it is so clean

The available workout equipment is intentionally minimal, designed to emphasize core, functional movements that anyone can master. Interestingly, the adults participating often don’t adhere to conventional gym attire, opting for comfortable casual clothing instead. This approach can seem unorthodox, and no matrix curling bars

In the beginning, it was a little challenging being African-American and going into the gym. I expect a racially competent environment however, now as I’ve been going here for almost a year, they have become much more friendly to me. The staff the people that come in and I think that’s very important. Life is already full of hardships. The last thing we need is people at the gym, making it even more harder. however, I like the front desk team that they have now and I feel it’s becoming more better shoutout to the pool manager !!

Very nasty staff with no respect or understanding for the families in the community. I asked for a call back from administrative staff and never received any returned correspondence. They are inconsiderate, stroll in to work whenever they want and are essentially taking advantage of the community and its families.

I have been a member at the YMCA in Hyde Park for about 2 years now and enjoy using the facility. I workout in the morning or at lunch for a quick hour and never feel like it’s overcrowded or I cant use a machine or weights. I love that i can get in an out. The facility is clean and i really like that they have a good offering of swimming classes for kids. I wish they had more toddler/kid programs like soccer or gymnastics. For kid classes i usually have to check out another location. The perk is once your a member you can use the other facilities and sign for classes for yourself and your kids.

My 5 yo boy is taking swim classes at Menino YMCA and he absolutely loves it. The swimming area is clean and his instructor is great.
I am also sending him there for summer camp.
The instructors for the adult classes seem like they would be great too and I am considering taking classes myself.

The first time I went to the Thomas Menino YMCA was with my 13yr old.
We were completely satisfied with the hospitality given by members of the staff and we enjoyed using the equipments.
The workout area is very clean and we are satisfied overall.
I have no complaints whatsoever.

The Menino Y in Hyde Park offers great fitness classes, new cardio equipment and weights. Nice clean pool with lap swim and swim lessons. Kids enjoy playing basketball and pickle ball in the gym.

I highly recommend Huguette’s yoga classes! Great all levels vinyasa flow in a welcoming environment.

The water fitness instructor (PAT) is excellent. She's pleasant, engaging, and very encouraging. She knows her stuff! She teaches effective workout methods; explains proper techniques, demonstrates the exercises; identifies different muscle groups, etc. The classes are fun; however; her expectations are high which results in a positive workout experience!Because of this and more, Pat's water aerobic classes, which I think should be called water fitness classes, are PHENOMENAL!I've been to an abundance of different water aerobics YMCA'S, including out-of-town, Pat is right at the TOP!

The pool experience at the Menino YMCA, especially with the self proclaimed ´´Breakfast Club´´, feels more like a community than just a lap or an open swim session. Members stop to exchange life stories, daily news and small talk, and the membership is a harmonious, mutually caring and diverse mix that one could define as an ideal YMCA community! Most, if not all of us refer to the morning swim as, "the best part of our day.", and all that before 8:00 a.m! :)

This is NOT the location you want to sign your kids up for swim lessons. The head instructor has very poor communication skills and he doesn’t train his swim staff well to either teach or communicate with parents. Didn’t receive evaluations for my kids after they both completed all their lessons and ven months after I requested them. Waste of money and time. No structure and the supervisory staff at higher levels don’t care. Don’t waste your money!

Friendly, caring and very professional. Highly recommend this facility!! Especially during this pandemic they make you feel comfortable and they take all necessary precautions. I’ve been a member for close to a decade and any issue I’ve had has been addressed immediately by whomever is working at the desk. My son is part of the LGBQT community and he feels welcomed and comfortable to participate in all programs offered.

Menino Hyde Park YMCA has a pool and a very nice daily activities such as yoga, strong Zumba, group bicycling, exercise equipment such as weight training, ellipticals and treadmills, etc. Trainers and instructors are very friendly, effective, and knowledgeable in what they do. Enough to keep an active member busy every day. Highly recommended.

I pay for a membership to this place but can’t take a dip in the pool after work days in the summer due to lessons in only half of the pool with the other half open. In what world does this make sense.

Ive never been involved with this camp but today i am a witness of their camp at the free friday day at the easton childrens museum and i am disgusted by the way the staff is treating these children from the moment i saw them step off the bus. They do not have control of them and they are just straight up mean to the children, yelling at them in front of other patrons and families, grabbing their arms too much. I have been in child care for many years. Camp counseling for about 5. These children can be handled better. Its making me want to leave this awesome day at the museum because i hate seeing how poorly these children are being treated. Also, they are taking up so much of a public space that it is really sad that the other children dont get a chance to experience the museum.

I joined the Y since beginning of the year and it's being really good, amazing pool with sauna. The classes in the studio are awesome and really enjoy a lot to be around people from the neighborhood at the classes. The service at the front desk is also good and really helpful, I had an issue with a payment and the gave it a solution quickly and efficiently. Definitely give this location an 5

My experience at this location has been unpleasant. The staff is not professional at all and the swimming lessons on Sundays are a joke. They are unorganized and do not seem to know what is going on. I am very disappointed as I expected way better from this location. The members are lovely and that part of our experience has been pleasant.

The place usually crowded with kids who are not to exercise but to hang out and make the equipments not available to others. Some of the programs are really poor. I enrolled my daughter for a swimming class, the instructor did not know what he was doing and had no personality for an instructor

Too many little kids hanging out and not working out, not enough classes, and the cancelation policy is unclear and changes everyday. They charged me two months because they "forgot" to cancel. Unprofessional but I guess that is what you get with so many teens working there.

No complaints about the facilities which are physically appealing, but their customer service leaves a lot to be desired.

I signed up and paid for swim classes and then became ill in 2012. I was instructed by my doctor to hold off with lessons, so I had to reschedule the class. I left several detailed messages with the aquatics contact about the issue, who only called back once, (after my repeated messages), and then did not leave any detailed information on how I could transfer my credit to the next class. I was just told to call her back. I went to the Y's front desk and asked to speak to the aquatics contact who was not available, nor was the Director available.

Frustrated, I then called to speak to the Director during business hours and was sent to his voicemail on which I left a short message asking to him to call me to discuss the lack of information and response. He never even bothered to call me back.

This Y seems to be fine as long as you don't have any issues that you need to actually talk to someone about. Very poor customer service.
