I would usually give a place like this 3 stars because it is small and does not offer amenities such as towel service as provided by their sister center (DOWD). That being said, this Y is located in a fabulous spot. From a personal perspective it is literally almost across the street from where I live. Even if you can't walk here, there are two different parking lots you can use. However, the one located on the side street only allows gym members to use it after 5 PM, and you will have to get the gate code in advance.
What I really like about this place is the customer service. The employees are RIGHT there when you walk in. I always get a warm greeting. When I first started, I received a tour of the gym and a consultation. This included my weigh-in, all my measurements taken and a discussion of my goals. Any time I work out I could ask someone to retake my measurements and I can use the scale freely at anytime. They also offer personal fitness training options (pay service) and they have a nice variety of free group classes that can be taken from open to close!
Because this has more of an "express gym" feel to it, all of the cardio and weightlifting equipment is within close proximity. But hey, who ever said a lil' eye candy every hurt?
