This one star relates only to their current security situation. There has been a rash of locker thefts recently. Don't bring anything you're not willing to lose.

Signed up. Couldn’t book classes through the app for a month. Customer service didn’t respond over email. Front desk was no help. Website sign in doesn’t work. Got an email that says my payment was rejected after the first month. After a month, I’m not able to figure out how to get in contact with anyone who can help me at this gym. Also, they’re closed Sunday which would otherwise be a good time to workout. Also, they close at 2pm on Saturday. Also, sometimes half the pool is close without warning because of staffing issues.Edit: (switched from 1 star to 5): Despite the above issues, someone eventually did call me, and we talked through my issues and came to a solution.

It's a great workout facility with plenty of other community-building resources staffed by some great people.

Wow! Who knew a YMCA could be so nice? We were lucky to experience this location because our nearby hotel offered day-use passes as part of their amenities. We simply had to walk a couple doors down, present the passes to the front desk, sign in, grab towels, and head upstairs to the workout areas. I went straight to the elliptical machines which had fabulous views of the Bay Bridge. There are also many treadmills, weight machines, and pretty much everything you would expect from a well-equipped gym! My husband was impressed with the basketball court and had a great workout when some younger guys asked him to play. We didn't even get around to checking out their pool or locker facilities but would if we had more time.

Fantastic Gym. It has everything and more you wish for in a gym including steam room and sauna. You will not find another gym in San Francisco offering so much for the price.

Best YMCA in San Francisco. The staff is polite,attentive and does their job very well. Classes that are being offered led by professional instructors. The sauna and steam room are kind of weak ( in my opinion they are not hot enough). The pool is great !

First, you can't beat the view! If you're on one of the cardio machines, you're in for soaking in some beauty while you're soaking up a sweat, with pristine views of the Embarcadero, the Bay Bridge and the Bay. It always gives me energy; especially at sunset! Next I'll have to comment on the friendliness and helpfulness of the staff that work there. I am always blown away at how attentive and kind they are. This facility is top notch! Clean, friendly (staff and members), many amenities (I love the sauna and steam room, and the pool too!) and a variety of classes and well-maintained equipment.

I really love this gym. The location is awesome, I love that it has a view of the water from the windows. The steam room is great, I prefer it to a dry sauna and the other gym I used to go to only had a dry. The steam room seems to help ease pain better.The staff are very cool, I like them a lot. The gym itself is big, and has the best selection of machines and weights of all the YMCAS I’ve tried in the area (Presidio, Chinatown, and Marin).The pool is fun to swim in and not too cold. The hot tub is nice but I don’t use it often.Overall a great place to workout!

Well maintained equipment. Just lacking energy. Low ceilings. Cold. Fluorescent light. Friendly staff.

Joined recently. THE BEST GYM I'VE EVER EXPERIENCED!! HANDS DOWN! The pier is up the street, the staff is great, the gym is clean and the swimming pool is outstanding! I'm so excited that my fiance blessed me to go back swimming!

It's a very nice facility and is clean. The views of the bay are unbeatable when doing cardio. The staff is also very friendly and I enjoy the amenities the gym has to offer. For the price you pay, you're getting a steal for a gym membership. UPDATE: I'm updating from 4 to 5 stars for stellar service. Love this place and Thomas is the best!

I have to give this place 2 stars because the place is clean but the staff there always pick and choose who they say anything to. The worst staff of all of this pink hair lady that is always picking to say things to say just at me and only me . She makes my time there the worst and due to her always consistently picking in me I will have to change gyms!! Sad because I really did like it there.
