Love It My Squash Team Plays There The Have Great Service Totally Recommend!!!
Every staff member is kind, congenial and very polite. The facility is clean to a sparkle? The public area is inviting and has a feeling of care and compassion.
I have no reason to give less than 5-star rating.
I hope that COVID-19 period pass safely and will again join again. Thanks for quality equipments.
I just finished the HIIT(High-Intensity Interval Training) with Stan S and it was great, Im definitely going back
Needs some work but overall a great place to reside
Love the pool and boxing area. There is a wide variety of time available.
Tried other gyms, nothing compares. Take note Others!
Preface: the front desk guys at this Y are amazing.I started going out of my way to the 202/Brandyinw YMCA (The Brandywine YMCA is amazing! Highly recommend!) two years ago because of the floor staff and some of the negative experiences Ive had with select few fellow gym-goers at the Central Y. Came back a single time and ended up having such a frustrating experience that I cancelled my membership on the spot.The YMCA is great. This YMCA though, I’d suggest watching out for. There are better in Delaware.
Since covid hit. The staff has done a great job keeping facility clean and safe.
Always very friendly. They speak. To everyone that come through the door
Customer service at the front desk is horrible. Dude was on his personal phone, stayed on personal phone even after I helped myself.
Good gym, good hours. There will be high school bros everywhere, but its pretty manageable here. Lots of equipment in good condition, so rarely a wait when waiting for weights.
I love the group ex classes! The instructors are always prepared, on time, and great at motivating me to work hard. The class times are perfect for my schedule.
Services and experiences are fantastic, but billing management is especially poor. They will take unauthorized funds either through ignorance or purposeful malignance. I have sent written messages twice to cancel my membership (which is the necessary method according to staff members and online policies) and have received no response. More importantly, they continue to charge my credit card long after the request have been sent.
Love the Les Mills classes included in membership!!! Also, the updated women’s locker room is a great place to get ready in the morning. And there are plenty of treadmills. The staff are friendly- I look forward to my morning routine there!
Very clean...equipment spaced very well...staff is always cleaning something (!!!😁)...wish more members would return.
Solid facilities. Sizable weight room: One squat rack, one power rack and one Smith rack. Three benches. One (two?) leg presses. The usual machines.Okay number of aerobic machines but easy to fill up during the lunch rush. Way fewer than the (much) cheaper Planet Fitness on the Riverfront.Convenient location in downtown Wilmington. Every other gym is far from here (at least 15 minutes for an Anytime Fitness), so those that dont have cars might find this useful. Parking is free, but small.Unfortunately, it costs WAY too much for what theyre offering. At this time of writing, theyre asking for $80/month. LA Fitness (30 minutes away) offers the same services and newer equipment for $32/month for a nationwide pass...
The instructors for group fitness classes are awesome! Megin does a phenomenal job managing this department. The staff at the front desk is always very welcoming too! These individuals seem very passionate about their jobs and make it easy to come to the Y during my lunch hour. Group fitness is always changing and challenging, which I love.
Great staff and very clean an organized.
Reception area is extremely cordial and upbeat when greeting customers. Feels good to be able to introduce and rear your children in an environment that not only supports family values but does so thru a wide range of services promoting fitness. Theres something for everyone @ the YMCA!
Clean facility, the front of house staff always approachable and friendly, love the womens plus locker room!
The facilities are always clean, well-staffed, and not overcrowded. The wait time for machines and weights is either short or non-existent, even at peak times. The staff are friendly and helpful.
Front desk staff and members are awesome ..leadership though won’t provide basic needs or answer an email ..so sad it could be a great place
I come here every morning at ~ 6am to workout. The gym is excellent and theyre currently renovating the showers, which is great. Only issue might be is that the parking lot is kind of small so you may not find free parking depending on what time you drive here.
A decent place to go for a workout. I use the weight room and treadmill, and Ive never had a problem. It can get crowded after work, but thats typical of any gym, so plan accordingly.
A great gym. Never overcrowded and theres plenty of weights and machines for all your workout needs. I truly enjoy working out here.
Ive been going here since the early 80s,Great friendly staff and clean facilities
Well laid out gym with room for lots of cardio equipment and a full weight lifting area. Also has nice racquetball courts. Parking behind the gym in dedicated lot.
I joined the YMCA recently and attended a few different sites. This location has friendly and helpful staff (and patrons). I participate in aquatics classes to manage chronic pain, while a large variety of fitness options and programs are available for every age. The facility is old... Perhaps different lighting or paint may brighten the hall. Nonetheless, central is in the center of an urban business district, and the population is very diverse in every way. I like it!
Decent facility, doesnt get too crowded normally. Ive enjoyed working out here for the last 6 months or so, but they just recently started enforcing their towel service policy. Ive gotten a towel everytime Ive been here, but now they say its $15 a month just for towels! I already pay over $90... Im gonna need to find another gym. This place is getting way too expensive
Good value for money and good infrastructure. You get a lot of options in one place including swimming pool, ping pong, squash, racquetball, gym (well maintained and a huge variety of machines), steam, sauna etc.
Everything about the Y is awesome.. it makes it easy for me to be healthy I’m a nice clean friendly environment
This is an excellent YMCA located centrally in Downtown Wilmington. It is very clean and well-maintained. There are a lot of facilities:Weight room, ( Cybex machines, dumbells, Smith machine and 2 racks, Hammer Strength equipment, deadlift area with wood floor, Life Fitness cable machine, and assorted dip and pull up stations), cardio area with stairmaster, treadmills and bicycles, functional training room for calisthenics, kettlebells, running, stretching, mobility and flexibility work, (one upstairs and one downstairs), swimming pool, racket ball courts, basketball courts, gymnatic rings, punching bag, excellent stretching station, mats for stretching and for yoga, Bosu balls, assorted size swedish balls, kettlebells, jump rope, bands, squat rack pad, saunas, and well appointed locker rooms. The locker rooms have small and large lockers. Bring your own lock. They also have showers and dressing areas; makeup counter and hairdryers in ladies locker room. There is also a lounge / relaxation area in the locker rooms They are very secure and locked. You need to use your access card to get in them. They also have lots of classes all day and all evening long. They have a coffee cafe where they serve beverages and snacks. There are food and drink vending machines around the facility as well. There is ample staff around to help you and answer questions. There are at least six personal trainers that you can hire. There is a playground outside where are you can send your children to play while you are working out. Also of note is the fact that you can use any YMCA throughout the state of Delaware once you become a member. There is ample free parking at each facility. The members are friendly and will let you work in sets with them. The only negative thing I have to say about this place is that its not open very late and at night. 10pm Mon-Thursday, 8pm Friday, 6pm Sat and Sunday till 5pm. These hours might have changed, so you can call and check, but longer hours, especially on the weekends, would be great. Other than that its a great facility!
There is a family atmosphere that welcomes ALL. Plenty of classes to include all ppl of various exercise experience. The instructors are experienced and helpful. Coming this week is ALL new equipment!!!!
I was in town for three day intensive job interview.I belong to the YMCA in New York and signed in with my card. The first day the young man on the desk was very nice gave me two towels to use for shower.Today the young lady at the desk around 8:15 am was extremely nasty!She did not want to get me any towels to shower after a long workout and gave me a lecture about how giving me a towel is not fair to the Central YMCAMembers!!Seriously?? She gave me a towel after she berated me telling me she was trying to be “nice” to me.I was thinking about sending a nice donation to this YMCA as is my practice because I love the YMCA!Not doing it!!!
Very nice experience!
For the third time in a month the fire alarm went off and everybody in the building had to leave and stand outside in the freezing cold. Each and every thing it is a false alarm and it completely ends everyones enthusiasm to continue working out. I realize that every fire alarm needs to be treated as though it may be real but why does this happen so much? If this happens again I quit!
I love going to the Y...there is no judgement here whatsoever....people at the reception to all the instructors everyone is so friendly and always with a smile ...the classes and variety I just so unique and a fun way to workout and meet new people....the instructors recommend each individual to perform at the intensity that they are comfortable and not compete with others in the group...the pool,the locker rooms and of course the steam and sauna....I love everythimg!!
My gym for 2+ years. Always clean. Staff always friendly. Equipment always working. Well trained staff.
The central branch Y is a awesome place .The Y has allowed me to meet new friends.The energy the instructors bring whether morning or afternoon is amazing !!!!Keep up the good work!!!!
Great location and facility. They have almost all indoor sports some of sports like badminton, Squash are available only at Central YMCA. Wish they could have more slots for badminton
Very nice place for a workout, they offer dorm-style housing with other adults on the higher floors as well if thats your thing.
Seriously, this is a joke!Please look at the Dowd YMCA in Charlotte, NC. This is what you’re supposed to have for the cost of membership.People in this city should simply stop going, and then the YMCA here would have to improve or shut down.And check this out, even on site medical....For many years, YMCA of Greater Charlotte members have been able to drop in to see a nurse for health screenings on their way to or from a workout.In the future, through an expanded partnership with Carolinas HealthCare System, some YMCA sites will offer more comprehensive services that could include primary care or urgent care clinics that focus on keeping the community healthy.Attaching photos of what a decent YMCA has to offer for the SAME price.
Like to rejoin and get back into the fun, summer is approaching😁
I enjoy open gym, cardio classes, the fitness center and the programs aimed at having a healthy and better life.
Good facility. The Plus locker room and shower area could use a good cleaning!
Great gym and spa. It also has a pool,steam room, full size basketball court,racquetball and very clean.
Convenient location, parking behind the building for y members (use your y id to swipe in), nicely maintained gym, pool, adults only locker rooms with sauna/steam rooms, and the usual class offerings.
Awesome teachers. Friendly staff. Have lots to offer as far as their facilities.
We are dedicated to the Y...love the place...clean and safe...good for the community
For the age of the building, its holding up like fine wine. The staff is always helpful and the instructors are top notch.
CENTRAL Y is a great place to exercise. The gym is clean and the views outdoors are great.
Great place for maintaining health, plenty to do and very open.
YMCA does a great job including the community in their outreach programs, while at the same time providing a great place for any type of workout, on any skill level.
Always fun!
Am thankful for the YMCA,Great place for families!
Great place to workout,swim, or just relax in the steam room or sauna. Staff is very friendly and helpful.

This place sucks if you are a basketball player in Highschool I come here after school and every time I do I only get to hoop for about an hour and then I get kicked out and have to wait like 2 hours just to play again.
Not a good idea at all for anything
Always basketball available, but front desk employees are jerks.
