Allegheny YMCA, great place to get your sweat on. Full service, with a full size basketball court, pool, studio rooms, weight room and cardio room. Oh yes, yoga! They have trainers, and the best staff. Cost is more than reasonable. Now, go get your sweat on!

This Y is perfect. It’s low key, not flashy, and the staff here are great. To everyone that complains about this location and says that it’s old and located in “a ghetto” do everyone a favor a go back to your yuppie gym that’s located in cranberry or Wexford. The staff goes above and beyond with cleaning the facility and keeping spray bottles stocked. It’s a really nice gym.

Great Energy & Attractive Atmosphere 🏋️🏋️‍♀️🏋️‍♂️💪

March 2020-July 2020 this YMCA was closed. I called numerous of times. Left voice messages. Never received a call back. I called to put my membership on hold due to closing of COVID. Between March -July 2020 I was charge $60 per month for my membership. I gave the YMCA another call, July 2020. Spoke with a guy who then directed me to a woman who’s the lead director. We spoke via email. She then told me I will not get refunded and the money of going to donation, charity and the YMCA. Little did she know I was in the process of being laid off from my job. And did not give authorization for money to be taken out my account. How can you charge my account without providing any service for which I signed up for? The YMCA on the northside of Pittsburgh do shady business.

As a member for six years, I have used the gym each weekday and many Saturdays starting 30 minutes before the posted opening times. This allows me to do a few weights to warm up before a Spin class on several days.Today a new employee told me she cant let me in until 8 am, the official opening time.This Y has residential rooms so this front desk is manned 27/7. So what moron in management at this facility decided on this restrictive policy when someone is at the desk in any case for the residents??I chose this gym because its in my neighborhood, but many other hums with much better hours for my schedule are within driving distance. I want a gym with better hours and, by the way, better facilities maintained far better than this shabby old Y.I can far less for a better gym elsewhere. I guess the message from the Y management is go ahead, leave.Thanks, Bill and Marissa. The staffer said this policy change is your idea.UPDATE: I quit this Y on 10/31/18. Well, actually this YMCA QUIT ME. Management closes only this branch for a week, with no membership refund for the inconvenience. The management is out of touch with the gym membership and facilities are unclean and poorly maintained. Rates are not competitive with other better managed, cleaner and better equipped workout facilities.I am going to another gym, though this is the closest to my house.I do not recommend this YMCA.

My first visit was like meeting new family and running into older family. Although an older facility with upgraded equipment the staff more than make up for existing building. Located in a great area Mexican War Streets residential educational as well as businesses rebuilding neat Allegheny Hospital etc.

The nicest people. It is a beautiful old building with its challenges but with character and charm. I feel a part of a community that runs so many programs for disadvantaged children and adults. Remember that the YMCA is a non profit.

I’ve tried to cancel my membership here for SEVEN months. I’ve filled out the form. I’ve called 4 times. They are still charging me. I’ve been promised the membership director would call me back multiple times. I don’t know what else to do but change my credit card number.

Not the biggest facility, but it has everything you need to get (or stay) in shape. The staff is fantastic and very friendly. Been coming here for months since I live in the area and met a bunch of new people. It’s a great community

$31 a month, not as cheap as I expected from a Y. I was a member at LA Fitness for 22 per month. Old and dinghy. I went to take a shower after my swim and someone had the nerve to steal my deva curl gel. Yes, my hair gel. Relieved all my other belonging were still locked up. Didnt expect in the short amount of time to rinse off my gel would be gone. Parking is also a pain. No lot, so only onstreet is available. It is hard to find an open spot even mid day. There is a pool, equipment, & the staff is friendly. I checked the YMCA app on my phone for North Side open swim. Pool was suppose to be open. I took my shower 1st as rules state before entering pool. The door was locked to the pool. At least hang a sign, pool closed. This was winter and very inconvenient.

Ive only just joined; However, everyone has gone out of thier way to make me feel at home even though I am a completely a novice. I had a great consultation with Kylee, she really took the time to learn about my medical issues and helped me develop a program that gave me what I needed based on what I have, strengths and opportunities. Joe, gave me a tour before I joined and really made me feel welcome. I think I really like this establishment. Thank you.

The Allegheny YMCA is the best Y ive ever been too. Thet just got all brand new equipment for the weight room and they re-did the locker rooms too. On top of that the staff is so cool, im always happy to see them and talk to them and laugh. Whatever they are doing on the Northside they need to keep doing.

Super friendly staff. Great facility. Feels like home. :)

100 year old gymCrack heads & bums lease out the upstairs so we share the entrance with all them.I dont know whats going on at this Y. I hope my review helps someone not join here.Went swimming In the pool & the next day my tonsils were swollen shut... I told them & they looked at me like I was crazy. Toxic waste dump 🤢Its sad the PNC YMCA in market square went bankrupt because that was the honestly the best gym Ive ever been too.This gym is like an old stray dog, it just needs put out of its misery.

Yinz guys are the worst neighbors ever. How dare you leave that eyesore of a garden plot next to my friends business. Yinz are lazy and never take care of anything. My friend took care of that plot of land you destroyed for 15 years before you decided to come over and put those ugly garden plots in. Nobody wants that piece of property, us city residents just want it to look nice but no.. all those people you have circulating in and out of there and no one takes care of the plot they started. What a disgrace. I let everyone of those sponsers on that sign in on what their sponsering. Im sure their not going to be happy either.

Great place to exercise with a friendly and helpful staff

Good Environment, Friendly Staff. Great classes.

Rented a room there for a week I did not see all the slanderous sounding things that were said about crackheads that sounds unfair but they did not tell me I had to bring a sleeping bag and some bed sheets or I would have: Hope they find some blankets instead of catering to uppity yuppie scum in the health club.

The morning staff is great

I had a room there. 98% of the guys living there are crackheads.

This Y I admit wasnt the best Y Ive been to. I mean, it feels very lacking of equipment. The staff seem like they are a bunch of bums. Of course, what more do you expect when your facility is located in a ghetto.

Clean, close to home and it has everything I need.
