What's the point of paying for swim lesson if they keep canceling class and they only allow you to make up one class between sessions. The staff in the reception area can't tell you if there will be make up classes. The coach who teaches the class can't confirm. They all direct you to the swim director. There should be some better communication there.

I am ending my membership as I fear entry into this facility. It is sad and unfathomable that the YMCA appears unable to hire staff with simple customer service skills. I have been intimidated into quitting. It's not worth the stress.

I was greeted by a nice young lady, wish I could recall her name. She was studying to be an accountant! She let me have a day pass since I was considering moving to the area. The website had a free pass for visitors. The inside had two floors and had tons of equipment. Being a gym rat for most of my adult life and an amateur bodybuilding competitor, believe me when I say this place has plenty of equipment. I did not have time to see everything but very clean! Friendly folks even at a busy time of day as well. I spoke to several members and the monthly rates are very affordable If you're in town or new to the area, try this for your workout. I will be back!

Shady financial practices. Had a membership for years and canceled it for Covid. Six months later,…read morethey started charging my card again, by their mistake, and it went unnoticed for a long time. They did a partial refund but stiffed me still for over $1000. Some advice, if you're going to give your credit card to a company that practices like this, is to make sure you block them with your credit card company after your membership is up. ( the following is a reply to the reply from one life) Hi Kelly, I think it might be wise to get some facts straight before you reply. Your regional manager never "explained" anything. After looking through the internal notes of the account, the general manager thought I should be refunded. But he could not authorize such a large refund and had to kick it up the chain to the regional manager. After many attempts, the regional manager essentially ignored the flagged requests from the general manager. So please, do your due diligence and look through the internal notes on the account. I don't judge a company by the mistakes they make, but how they fix them.

Great gym! Had to move away from Frederick so I'm switching to another location but my time with…read morethe South Frederick location was great. In the time I was there, they opened up several new rooms in the gym, including more benches, racks, and deadlifting platforms. They also seemed responsive to their member surveys and it seemed like my suggestions for improvement were actually taken into account based on the changes I observed. I typically went during the mornings and found that I rarely had to wait for equipment, which is always a plus. Better experience here than most gyms I have been to.

Best place I've ever been to for table tennis. The coaches love teaching and lessons are a blast.read more

This is one of the largest table tennis clubs in the country so was surprised that there were no…read morereviews. They recently renovated, added new floors, shower, doubled the space. It's located in a large warehouse near Costco in Gaithersburg with about 18 well-spaced tables and high ceilings. Non-members can play for $10 a day. No need to bring equipment. They have paddles that you can borrow or buy. What makes this place stand out is the quality of the teaching staff. There are very few places where you can get private and group lessons from a number of top professional players as well as a former olympian, two former chinese national team members and 2 Hall of famers at very reasonable rates. They have beginner programs on Fridays, regular leagues on Tues and Friday nights and Advanced league (2200 +) on Sundays.

Playing in community centers and…read moreindoor basketball courts are good but it gets tough when they close for the holidays, watch in disgust when your shuttlecock hits the ceiling, try and figure out the badminton lines on the floor which criss cross with basketball lines or are asked to leave early because players from other sports get there. So a dedicated badminton court/club definitely helps. I have been going to the new club for the past 2 weeks and it's great- courts, people, management-- all top notch! The only downside for me is that the club is a little far from where I live but playing badminton twice a week in a proper badminton court at a convenient time of the day is all I can ask for now.

Long time LAF member (and get an incredible rate), recently relocated to MD. The front desk staff…read moreare wonderful and really seem to love the (part-time) jobs (don't get me started on not providing healthcare so staff don't have to work 2 part-time jobs). My trainer was personable and I would use her again, I'm sure. Things I wish were different: the carpet and equipment are very old. The mats so worn around the equipment that you can see foot prints. The weight machines labels for the weights are all but coming off. The decore - as with my other LAF location on the West Coast - very, very dated (2000's). The cleaning staff seem to be present and doing their jobs but it's impossible to clean used/aged equipment. They do have a machine repair guy in regularly and that's promising (but again, the equipment is simply old and very worn). I wish there were more clocks located around the facility, especially the weight area. I guess I'm just hoping they start a renovation/remodel soon (without having to shut everything down). I promise to keep you posted as things improve (or not).

Life Time isn't horrible, but recently I have been noticing some very annoying things…read more 1. The basketball court was completely removed, which I was highly looking forward to using after getting my membership. Turns out it was replaced with a pickleball court. The thing that bothers me is the fact that half of the basketball court area was already a pickleball court, and they probably only replaced everything to make more money off pickleball lessons and stuff. 2. Things haven't been changing in a positive way. Like I said before, the basketball court was removed purely as an extension of the already existing pickleball court. Also, some of the gym equipment is pretty outdated and not getting fixed. Furthermore, the staff really don't care about members and just completely listen to the people who are ruining the experience for others, and getting people kicked out of a spot they were already in. The staff also tend to listen to the older person without understanding whats really going on. 3. Most of the Life Time membership is really just giving you access to more purchases instead of owning up to their slogan, "Healthier way of life." The whole Life Time experience really just seems to be a cash grab instead of what it promises.
