Nice clean facility, the staff is awesome. They greeted my wife and I with smiles on their faces and in their voices. It was pretty cool,, you dont get that alot nowadays. The wellness floor was cool, lots of cardio options and machine options. They definetly need more free weight options. I was able to get a great back workout in today though!!

Find it to be a tad older in overall facility but well equipped, clean and quiet. Locker area is very clean too. Shower area is devided into stalls and they are very narrow. In this COVID time, sauna and steam rooms are out of commission.

It’s nice and has lots of space but there is not much equipment in the gym and what there is is rather old. It also closes extremely early every day, especially the weekends, so often times I can’t fit in a workout. Considering canceling my membership for that reason; I really have to work my schedule around it. The staff are super nice though. I just think it’s a tad bit outdated.

In my opinion McClesky is the coolest and most useful YMCA in East Cobb. It has everything from a pool, tennis courts, soccer fields, gym, basketball courts, and more. This is the gym I always go to now. There usually isnt as many people as you would think for a big 2 story building so its nice to visit. You just have to remember if you want to go to the pool nowadays you have to schedule a reservation. I learned that the hard way and went to the Y to only swim and they didnt allow me to. Other than that everything can just be used as soon as you come in, reservations needed.

Nice place ! Nice people! Would have given them 5 stars but my daughter coat got stolen from here during day camp . Didn’t like fact that there was nothing they could do. Not even a security camera around to see who could stole my child’s belongings smh. I would advise don’t bring anything here with you that you wouldn’t mine losing. Sad your kids can’t have a good time here without watching out for Thieves.

I joined the YMCA in Jan and I go at least 5 times a week, I enjoy the all the classes that are offered. The classes have motivated me to get there and because they are only 45 min, I feel like it is very doable.I am a better healthier person because of my membership.

I take my infant here for swim classes even tho im always late lol the only thing I dont like about the pool is that people can book up all lanes and if they are booked no one else can get in the pool so my kids ended up with 10 min in the pool the day of the class, and the class is only 30 min. So I made sure to book the lane the next time other than that I have no complaints staff is very friendly and helpful

Review №22

I have had a huge problem getting checked in at the McClesky Y. Although I have no problem logging in on my account at home, the people there say there are actually four people on our account, three of which have the same name (mine) and Im to guess which one is correct. After filling out the covid questionnaire four times and each time it not going through, I gave up and left. They also kept badgering me for my cellphone number, saying it would make it easier. Easier for what--folks, youve already messed up my account, why should I give you a crack at my cell phone number? I know the Y does a lot of worthy things, but I can only conclude that this is being done to me to discourage me from using the facilities.

Review №26

Good option for a family but the weight section is very limited, with a strange layout. If there are 3-4 people there it feels crowded. The bathrooms smell terrible and half the lockers are broken. The cardio equipment (treadmills + ellipticals) are well past usable. Pieces hanging off, screens dont work, audible clacking on a lot of them. They said they were going to replace the machines 1 year ago but no change. I asked about it and was brushed off.

I love the facilities, equipment and cleanliness of the place. There are a lot ( A LOT!) of programs and classes at great times. The staff is very friendly and helpful. I feel very welcome here, which Ive never felt at any other gym/facility in various cities. I truly enjoy coming here as do my kids (aged 13 and 9). My kids have loved learning new sports and training actively in ones they already know.

This YMCA location have been nothing but great to me from the day I sign up for the use of the exercise equipment on 2/18. I came back the next day to speak with Angela, the certified trainer and she was so sweet and patient with explaining an exercise routine that I could use to get started. I love that I can come as early as 6a as a convenience to me or even after work, if I choose. A great place for singles or families for all your fitness needs and more for children, if needed.

The pool is the greatest. Its salt-water sanitized, which doesnt damage skin or hair. And its Olympic size, which is wonderful for laps. Just plan to swim when there are no swim lessons. And they have a fantastic weight room with lots of equipment.

We had a membership here for awhile but cancelled because we didn’t come enough. It was clean, they had a ton of classes, the child care was nice, all the workers were kind and they have a sauna. We now have the program membership so my son can play soccer here and so far so good.

Love the Y but the staff people can be a little overwhelming, i feel their all over me just looking and asking the most ridiculous questions. So much for social distancing.

Review №48

As a whole the staff and facility is very nice. Every thing is kept clean and well maintained. The only reason they didnt get 5 stars is the weight area. Most of the benches arent bolted down, causing them to rock or shift.The barbells are very old and not in great shape. The weight area is small but effective. If the facility could cut back on the MASSIVE cardio area just a little bit and add to the weight area they would be a world class gym.

I didn’t even have the chance to experience what the YMCA was about. I signed up for 4 swim classes for the same day different times. My daughter got sick and gave my other daughter the strep. So I called several times went to the location called the main office and still no refund. It’s been a month and 2 weeks and still no refund. All I wanted was to cancel the classes and reschedule for another. The YMCA is supposed to be about building communities, helping families but in my case it was destroyed! I’m sure it’s a nice place but for me I will be dealing with local governments services. I know they will treat you fair and give the best service.

My partner and I came to watch our nieces soccer practice, and a woman harrassed us by placing several religious pamphlets on our windshield. She put them on our vehicle only, no one else had any of her literature. She insulted us in front of her own daughter and our toddler, she said she was entitled to preach to us about our pain because of the color of our skin. We were even asked if we needed help by another person. The manager did nothing but tell us she had to do it again to face any consequences, and that other people at this YMCA probably agreed with her (are against homosexuality). I was in tears and we told him we wouldnt come back. He got cheeky and invited us back on Saturday to see the difference. Poorly handled and extremely inappropriate. We did nothing to this woman and the manager obviously didnt care enough about discrimination against us enough to actually try and seem genuine. He even told us we would not receive an apology. This management has their priorities extremely mixed up. Keep catering to those who show their hate and this world will never change.

Always a great place to workout, go swimming, take classes, and meet people.The staff is really friendly, and the facility was really clean.Although far from an expert, I believe all YMCAs have the same amenities, but a couple of staff members made all the difference in the world regarding my review.

Review №56

Really love this facility!! Back before I had twins we had memberships to LA Fitness and Id say its better in terms of equipment and space, but once you have kids the Y cant be beat. They love the play facility here and the staff is super involved with them there whereas at LA Fitness I felt they were just bidding their time with my daughter but not really involved. They know me and my kids by name here. My eldest daughter has done soccer, swim lessons, and is signed up for summer camp here. She has loved everything shes been involved in and I have always felt everyone was respectful and kind to her. I have never experienced any rude staff, even those mentioned by other reviewers. I couldnt be happier.

Great location. Clean, well maintained equipment, both dry sauna and steam room, full sized pool. My only complaints are that they do not provide clean towels for workouts or showering, and they have one designated cloth towel and spray bottle per machine, which isnt very sanitary when you have hundreds of people wiping their sweat off on the same towel.

What I love about the YMCA is that there are activities for my whole family to enjoy. Our family has made lots of friends at the Y. I love the weekly Zumba classes and the Glow in the dark Zumba party that we have each year. My son loves playing basketball in the gym and have made some really good friends. I am very thankful to have the YMCA as apart of our lives and our family. The YMCA is a safe place that our family can come to and not only exercise, but enjoy ourselves together.

Review №75

My kids experienced one of the worst swim lessons at the East Piedmont YMCA this week. My older one was in the swim stroke clinic and the coach was yelling “GET OUT!” at a girl in class several times in front of all the other kids. The poor girl climbed out crying and sat out for the rest of the lesson. The coach in my other son’s class was chatting with a staff member in the next lane for at least 20 minutes out of the 40 minute lesson. The two kids in her lesson spent most of their time standing and waiting around, not knowing what to do. We’ve been a long term member with YMCA and hope they can improve the quality of their swim coaches. Kids should have a fun and productive time in the pool, instead of being frightened or ignored.

Rachel Singer was an awesome team player - She was a big help in working with our 16 year son acclimated to the Y, getting him working in the Counselor in Training program, doing some personal coaching with him -- Tiffany in Aquatics also spent a lot of time at swim lessons with our smaller boys -- We really appreciate everything the team at the Y has done to help our boys.

Just called to ask if I can switch swim class from one day to there other. The receptionist wouldnt even check options. Response was all classes in May are full, period. Thanks for making an effort, girl!Also disappointed from soccer club; they would not commit for time of practices or ganes, how can someone be expected to pay amd register if they dont know the schedule?Other than that our experience so far was OK. Not a brilliant experience nor a bad one, just as expected.
