The staffs are nice but the rule is not good. I come to the gym mainly for sauna and hot tub. I have been using my sauna suite to help me sweat during 15 minutes. At Ymca here, they don't allow it and it doesn't help me at all. It is suck!

Palo Alto Family YMCA is a safe place to improve overall health for all age groups. The great staff is always willing to help.

I strongly do not recommend you or your family coming here. I have several reasons that you should avoid this place.-YMCA staff is vague and unhelpful, as they won't do much to help the members and won't make even small changes.-The service is quite pathetic, coming from my own experience and others as well. Emails are very slow.-The wifi is not the greatest, often disconnecting randomly and not working properly.-Swimming pool smells strongly of chlorine and a few of the life guards are inappropriate and like to stare at minors who swim, such as them following minors around and staying near them.-Gr**ing happens in the swimming pool as well, mainly to underaged kids. If you don't believe this, just contact the Palo Alto Police, and there are several reports of it. If you don't want your kids to experience anything unsettling or uncomfortable by the actions of the staff, please avoid the YMCA pool.-If you end up deciding to buy a membership here, note that there it is very crowded during the afternoon and evening times especially. Lot's of classes going around in the pool, so it is better in the lap pool.-To end it on a good note, there are lots of machines here and the facility is mainly clean most places.

PA family YMCA offers great group exercise classes. Especially love the Zumba classes . In addition, this facility has several indoor sports like basketball for kids, badminton, pickleball, etc . I love going to this facility.

Would you like to hire more professional instructors for the Aqua fitness program in the Recreational Pool of Palo Alto Family YMCA? The old instructor, Carol, does not have particular exercises for class. Unfortunately, she has most classes during the week. The teachers should have several activities for 45 minutes of aquatic class.

Best YMCA in the Bay Area in my opinion. They have great indoor heated swimming pools and courts. And lots of group exercise classes and other activities.

YMCA is a great place to go to when you are taking kids to the pool because the kids pool is heated and kids can have so much fun. A great place to take kids to. The adult pool is good too but very cold it is great for adults and school aged children. It is a great place to go to if you are taking kids or going on your own to the pool. Both of the pools are very high quality. The showers are ok because sometimes the showers will not keep the water warm for long but overall the showers where ok. The locker rooms were great because you can put in a code to unlock and lock it. The best place ever.

Visiting PA for a week, got a free membership for the week. Excellent facilities and weight and workout equipment. Looved that they have all kinds of lockers (you dont need a lock) which allow you to quickly drop your stuff and get to the work out if you are short of time. Also liked that the have programs visible on the lobby screen, so that you know if you can take advantage of something that day or the following one. Great front desk staff that made the process seamless and helpful for me to maximize the membership. If I lived there I would cnsider joining it, no question. I already recommended it to family who lives nearby.

Great staff and generally not too crowded. Midtown residents are lucky to have close access to this neighborhood facility.Unfortunately their hours are not quite as accommodating at they could be...closing at 7 PM on Friday and 4 PM on Saturday and Sunday.The other problem I frequently run into is the number of teenagers/young adults sitting on equipment in the exercise room, but reading their cellphones rather than exercising. This ties up the equipment.
