Somerville YMCA

Has a pool, steam room and free parking! Locker rooms are dated and need repairs. Machines are dated, but some interesting stuff.

I would NOT entrust this company whatsoever especially with children. One of their school bus drivers hit my car!! I had a passenger and the driver told everyone he was not looking! My car is badly damaged and I’m waiting to see if it can even be repaired. Do not take your children here. The drivers are grossly incompetent and reckless. The owners was too scared to say anything, even apologize. I understand the existing bad reviews but BEWARE OF the gross negligence even of the ymca bus drivers. Terrible and wouldn’t recommend even driving past it bc that’s how my car got hit.

Love the adult swim class. The swim director and the rest of the instructors are very encouraging, knowledgeable, and let you learn at your own pace. There'a frequent rotation in who leads the class every week, and that means you get exposure to different approaches and are always learning something new. The best part of my week!

It’s so gross. The worst ymca I’ve been to. Inside seems like you are going into captivity or inside a jail. They only have 5 treadmills which 2 aren’t working. I’ve never felt so bad inside a gym.

The homeless guys upstairs I believe have a free membership to the private men’s club. And no matter what the staff says to them they use it as a laundry mat.. so you see people down there picking sores on the bottoms of their feet .. truly they were taught no basic hygiene whatsoever, men in their late 50s and 60s? Disgusting. I’ve had stuff taken out of my lockers. So I quit. Stay away from that place. They barely clean it. Same rolled up Band-Aid in the corner for two weeks. The maintenance guy. I don’t know what he’s doing in there.
