  I was here from out of town and came to the YMCA to lap swim. The front desk staff was so kind (shoutout Joe!!), the locker rooms were clean, and the pool was great! Definitely recommend 😃

  I was there years ago so don’t know how relevant my impression was but I toured the “y” and I really liked the variety of fitness equipment and pool!

  Been my home gym/pool since I was old enough to walk. The facility is pretty old, but the employees are kind and helpful, and the place never gets too busy. It's a great gym.

  Great YMCA. Tennis fields are ready for some pickleball matches.

  Nice pool area but the rest of the facility is very dated and rundown. Swimming instruction can be hit or miss here. Plenty of parking compared to other locations in DC.

  This review is for the summer camp, as I'm not a member of the actual facility. I highly recommend the Y Summer Camp program, particularly the aquatics sessions. My daughter has a blast every day, and her swimming has improved through the experience. Chiquita, the camp director, and all of her team are compassionate and organized, and the camp itself is very well-run.

  Max (personal trainer) rules. He has such a nice way about him, feels like a friendly cousin. I’ve never been interested in personal training at all. In a relatively short amount of time he really made my muscles burn and I left feeling exhausted and fantastic.
  
  The gym is pretty good. They have a lot of stuff. It’s expensive IMO, but I feel good about the Y as an organization so I prefer to go here than a cheaper private gym. That said, I’d prefer an option where I pay less a month and don’t have pool or class access since I never use the pools or classes anyway.

  Great Y, older building. The staff, the programs and the availability of two pools and pickleball beat any gym in the area hands down. Not only that but the TV access on the cardio machines actually works! Compare that to any other club at this price. The locker rooms are old and tired, otherwise I'd give it five stars.

  A YMCA with its priorities correct!

  Tennis courts are a mess, none are maintained and have been pointlessly thrown to Pickelball players. I’m afraid the people there say there’s no will to advance updating the courts.

  It’s a YMCA, but aside from being older and the place being very spread out like a maze, what makes this place unique is it has a year round heated outdoor lap pool, which is awesome. There is also a big indoor pool. Big downside though is there’s no sauna and no towels. But 5 stars just for the outdoor heated lap pool because it’s dope.

  I cancelled my membership here due to pricing increasing with no prior notification almost $30 more. The class schedule changed with no prior notification and some were completely removed from their program. Unfortunately, this location is a disorganized facility. It is very sad because I truly enjoy the evening classes and the instructors.

  Showing improvement. Doorways widened. Some newer equipment. Had a great Director (Melvin). Front desk friendly and pleasant. Convenient hours, etc. Everyone has always been very nice to me.
