The Waltham YMCA is a pleasure to visit...it is very clean, the staff is friendly and it has an excellent array of exercise equipment. When my Needham YMCA was closed due to COVID, I began using the Waltham Y, and have continued to go there some, even though Needham has re-opened.
Great Gym love the free weights and everything it has. Only problems that arise is that the pool is a bit dirty but that is an easy fix another problem maybe it's personal is that the shower room is open which might get kids a little creeped out
I ve called and the person who answers the phone told me that there is open gym in the basketball court and 5 times I ve come to be kicked off of the basketball court. They are not concerned about the time of people who come here and the response I ve gotten each time I ve been kicked off after bein...
Update: young Y worker just shouted through the Y that a 5-year old [and yelled her entire name] was left by her grandmother at the Y. If I wanted to kidnap [insert kids name], I could walk to the counter right now and say, "I'm here to pickup [kid]. She's five." and these juvenile reps would pro...
I learned how to swim front stroke and back stroke. There is a fun summer day camp for many ages and a night camp 8+. Even a baby can enjoy it!
My wife and I toured the daycare in January. Our baby is to be born in June, and we were looking for October enrollment. They assured us they would have a spot, but enrollment would not start until April. They took our information and assured us that they would contact us when enrollment opened. We ...
Clean and well-maintained facilities. Covid protocol makes me feel safe and all the staff is nice and gentle.
Staff is very nice, the gym is kept clean and has a lot of machines. The pool is great though it gets full pretty fast when the outside pool closes for the winter. There is a sauna and steamroom in the locker rooms and a jacuzzi by the pool.
Facilities are good. Teachers are careless. Bad dynamic with the kids. One and done experience.
Great organization with a great mission. This branch has plenty of classes, machines and two large pools indoor and out. The grounds are a little small so outdoor activities are more limited for kids camps. Small archery range and no climbing wall for example.
Highly courteous staff, great safety protocols, and reliable equipment.
Outdoor pool is great and YMCA is a wonderful community.
I go to this Y all the time to use the gym areas and swim in the pool. Overall, my experiences are good. Once in a while there are other patrons who ignore the policies or are rude ... but I think you find that everywhere. Some of the young lifeguards that monitor the pool are fine, and others h...
The infrastructure of Waltham YMCA is appreciable with huge Cardio room, weights room, studios for latin zumba, Y-pump, cycling, mixed fit and other varieties of group excercises. Waltham YMCA also has a huge outdoor and indoor swimming pools. Well maintained and thoroughly trained staff. Staff are ...
Don't go to this YMCA for youth class! They can cancel your class at their will and you lose your money. I registered my two kids for basketball clinic over the summer. They cancelled the last session without any reason. I didn't even get notification! I only found it out when I arrived. I contact...
It s a really good YMCA I always go there i recommend you to go.
pretty disappointing bathroom, very unsanitary. The pool is kind of unsanitary too, also crowded, but other than that the pool is fine. You get what you payed for, nice programs, but for me the day camp is very bad. Staff is . The showers for boys doesn't even have curtains. Overall, the YMCA is ...
Has everything a person could want in a gym like basketball, an indoor and outdoor pool, exercise classes, a steam room, kids care, weight room, spin room and jacuzzi. Staff are friendly. Lots of open gym time for adults to play basketball. Good basketball leagues here throughout the year.
Reliable, friendly, and caring after school staff and program coordinated with Waltham public schools. Every time the program is at the actual ymca I have had nothing but good experiences- they host activities and events on weekends for the kids.
This YMCA is nice but a bit run down and could use a thorough remodel, particularly in the locker rooms. It looks like at least part of the shower area is scheduled for a remodel starting in February 2020.
If you are looking for a place to swim, this isn t fancy, but it s perfectly adequate.

A friendly staff member gave me a tour and sparked my interest in joining the YMCA. I like how social the "Y" is. You can join in on any game on the basketball court. I love the free weights and the cardio room. It's nice to have the baby sitting room in the center of the building with all windows s...
1.My daughter is enrolled in toddler program, but the management send her to preschool since they have more children in toddler class. We mentioned multiple times not to send her to preschool. But the management over the center is negligent. Without any prior intimation they use to change her to pr...
We are loving our new programs. My 8 year old daughter just started with private swim lessons and with Sunday youth soccer. It s safe, not crowded and we love the diversity!!!
Incredible swim instructors for young kids. On our second cycle of lessons for beginners and we've seen huge improvements.
Kids look forward to it every week.
Nice clean facility as well.
CVS Waltham, one of my favorite place because I have 3 children's and they have what I need for them treatment.
Very well run gym and recreation facility. Glad to be back in person after a year of remote classes!
I ADORE those whom work for the Waltham YMCA. Every time you enter your always greeted by the staff and when you leave they wish you a good day. It's a great way to start your workout/day. The machines all have big touch screans with choice of TV. Everything is clean except the bathrooms. I certain...
Meh. Pool probably needs better sanitary maintenance. It was murky and had hair floating in it and a strong chloramine smell (due to swimmers not showering or too many little kids peeing in it.) Rest of facility seemed OK. They should get rid of the prison-style cinderblock walls though... It's not ...
I'm really happy with the YMCA. Overall I think they're a great org and give a lot to the community. Pre-COVID I enjoyed using the Waltham gym/workout area. We've loved their pool and their 2020-2021 Learning Center has been wonderful for our 5 year old. So I definitely recommend them and appreciate...
Nice place to work out. Great staff and awesome facility.
Pretty nice gym, you pay $85 for 2 people if you're 30 or older. I'm not aware of a lower charge if you make less than $37K/yr. This Y offers a lot of interesting classes (e.g. barre and Bollywood dancing), and they have both an indoor and outdoor pool. I love the outdoor pool, although both changin...
Small gym. Not a great time even if there is 3 people there that wants to do same workout. Never going back to this YMCA.
This is a good fitness center with complete facilities and complete staff. The attitude of the staff is also very good. Unfortunately, the water in the swimming pool is sometimes turbid.
