YMCA of Greater Boston - Huntington Ave 316 Huntington Avenue, Boston, MA 02115

"I love the Y. It has become my third place (aside from work and home). The community is great, people are beautiful and the group classes are fun. It is within walking distance of my house, so I come every day. Thanks for all the great work!"

"The people at the front desk need to do better with relaying the correct information to members over the phone. This is the second time that I've tried to attend open gym with my son only to be disappointed because the gym is not available.Please stop putting people without people skills at the front desk. The young man who worked the front desk tonight was SMUG. This is not some elite country club. It's the Y dude. When a paying member has a grievance, make it better. Do not brush a paying member off with an arrogant "Have a nice day". On a more positive note Trisha and the young man that was working the gym tonight with the du-rag on are AWESOME. They listened and we chatted. Pay them more."

"Huntington YMCA facility is cleaned and modern. Pool section in particular is well-taken care of and there always seem to have lanes opened for Lap swim, besides Swim lessons and other activities. Staff are friendly and helpful."

"Solid gym to be certain. They lack some of the more advanced lifting/exercise equipment, SSB bars, bamboo bars, hip circle bands, etc, but they have the essentials. They do have a hex bar which is great. They recently expanded their stock of benches and squat racks, which was absolutely needed, but it was at the cost of turf space, so during rush times it’s impossible to do sled work. Finding a stand alone bench to do free weight work is tough during rush hour. Be aware this place is like 90 percent students, so it’s often filled with 20 something dudes, but coming in off peak certainly helps if you’re not wanting to wait or deal with noise. There are people who will take up the benches and squat racks for an entire workout. However, there is never an issue getting on cardio equipment. The steam and sauna are always hot and very nice, the pool is great too. Locker room is a bit outdated but they keep it clean."

"A great gym for your work out here in Boston . Very close to Copley square . It has a pool and many different Classes. The gym has everything you need but it’s only for me doesn’t has gym atmosphere. It’s not mandatory to have a towel with you but you have to clean the machines with wet wipes after you used them . If everyone had a towel you would have to do this . I don’t know it’s the fist gym that it has everything you need but for sure doesn’t feel like a gym. No ambient music . It’s most like a kids and old people gym more than a heavy weight training Center ."
