This is one of my favorite YMCAs to go to. The best time to go is in the early morning (5am when they open) or between 1pm and 3:30pm, that is when it's least busy in the weight and cardio area. The best classes are the yoga ones, any aqua one, and the total body conditioning. I think the price of a membership is reasonable because you can go to any YMCA and all of their facilities are clean and have great weight rooms! read more

I love this Y: so many excellent exercise programs for every level of fitness. My Medicare Advantage insurance (United Health Care) pays for my membership, so I give a donation to express my appreciation for the amazing group exercise leaders. They work very hard to help us older adults get fit and stay healthy, AND they are respectful, friendly and responsive . The exercise equipment is almost the same as you would find in very expensive studios, so why pay more for "the same thing?" The front desk staff used to be friendlier (they looked at people as they walked in) and more helpful (they could describe each class). Now they apparently have so much work to do on computers, that looking up at every person would interrupt their work so often that they couldn't accomplish enough. The sound systems in the gym have improved, and I'm glad that the leaders there don't BLARE the music at us. They usually provide music that is "age appropriate" for older adults. I wish that the volume in the upstairs studio were NOT so loud! read more

Review of their kids soccer league... Our daughter has participated in numerous soccer leagues with the Y, playing at the Maple St YMCA. They normally do a nice job, and have moved the start/finish times of the game a little, to make parking a bit easier, allowing for people to leave after their game before the next round of games start. The fields are well kept, and the referees are YMCA employees, not 'real refs', but they do a pretty good job. On occasion we have had a ref not show up, so a parent has had to step in. This isn't a super competitive league, and has volunteer coaches, but is a good way to introduce the kids to the sport, and help them learn the basics...and have fun! read more

We go here for all our kids sports activities! The field is great and the people are great also!. Between the times of 9 and noon parking is very difficult in the parking lot of the YMCA. I would recommend going into the neighborhood behind the field if you're looking for parking close so you don't have to walk very far. Other than that it's a great family experience! read more

After comparing the individual rates and rules at other Omaha gyms the YMCA turned out to be the best deal for me. Pros: You can use any of the Omaha metro Y's with your membership, the Maple St location has a ton of classes and they are offered late enough in the evening for people that don't work bankers hours, the staff have been really helpful and friendly, the machines are new and all seem to work well, there's a pool, joining fees waived for various groups (like military) Cons: locker room floor is always wet, pool kind of small and very chlorinated!, you have to quit in writing 30 days in advance to stop auto deduction read more

This is a really nice YMCA. They have great workout facilities, a nice pool and neat extras like a giant tube maze. They also offer affordable pre-school which my kids went too, babysitting for while you are working out, and neat craft programs for the kids. They, of course, also offer the wonderful sports programs that YMCA's are famous for. They lose one star for small parking lots. read more

If you want quality programming for your child, don't bother signing your kids up for dance at the Maple St YMCA. The lessons are completely age-inappropriate, the teacher never spoke to the parents. I mean no introduction, no updates after class, no NOTHING. Today, I receive an email stating that our recital will be the day before Easter. Since no one ever communicated with us, we planned to be out of town for the holiday, so now my kid has to miss it. I'm livid. Maybe it's better for the older kids (my kid is 4) or maybe other classes are better, but for $120ish for 30 mins a week for a couple months, lessons geared more for 10 year olds and a recital outfit that we're now not going to be able to use, it was a total disappointment. read more

I was not impressed by the front office staff. I went in to sign up for a new membership and expected to have someone sit down and go over the memberships, prices and what's included they just handed me a flyer and told me to look at it. It ended up I was missing some paper work and instead of trying to find a way to help me they told me I needed it or they couldn't help me, I walked out with no plans to return. If they staff had been more polite and helpful I would have likely returned. Now I will find a gym with better customer service skills at the front desk. read more

I love the Y. The exercise classes are great, the staff is friendly and knowledgeable, and the equipment is surprisingly up to date. Great free weight room - has an old and dingy feel with nice equipment and not too many meatheads to intimidate you away. The cardio room is first rate. 5 plasma TV's, and 75% new treadmills, stairmasters, ellipticals etc. All equipment is well maintained as well. read more

I love the classes here at the YMCA! You can go to almost any of them and they are fit for all levels. One complaint is that when you call and ask the front desk something that they can't answer they just tell you that they don't know and won't go try to find out the answer to your question. For example on a minor holiday I had called to ask if classes were the same as usual or if they had changed. The lady said she had thought that they were the same but didn't ask anyone else to find out. That night when I arrived for the class it had switched. Called today to ask them what the length of their pool was and the lady had no idea, and didn't bother to find out!!! read more

Please be careful...!! As a woman with kids and will not tolerate injustice of any kind nor should anyone. Today was at gym and older man was rude and called me a B word and I complained to staff!! he made US confront each other and was worsen and made me uncomfortable and I froze my account for 1 month and than will talk to director and cancel my membership and my son hates the daycare center and will enroll them to boys and girls club instead as it's a sign that daycare center is not working out too The older man kept arguing with me after the staff left and I didn't want knock him to his grave but is why, told staff this man is not respectful of people space as he took his huge gym bag and chair on the side of the bike and near my workout area.. There's lockers to use it . I gave the YMCA 2 chances and done with the pest issue. Anytime fitness looks better even if I pay more I rather than put up with disrespectful humiliated experience . The staff is always on there phones and when something happens they lack the skills and then the threshold of the gym being out dated and older bathrooms and wondering what happened to upgrades none existence and no importance . Please don't go here is like worse than expected. read more

I agree with another reviewer that the staff here is just awful. It's the closest YMCA to where I live and I refuse to sign up here because I had such a bad experience with the people who work here. I haven't even seen the facilities! I actually bought a Groupon for summer day camp for my son a couple of years ago. First of all, they acted like I was asking for a handout because I used a Groupon, second of all the fine print says you can either print out the bar code or show your mobile device to redeem your Groupon--I always choose the latter and they had no idea how to help me and were barely willing to try. Also once when I came a little early to pick up my son, I overheard the instructor of another camp class screaming at the kids and being a complete ass. I actually said "that had better not be my son's class that guy is screaming at" to the person behind the desk, and he just laughed like I was joking. read more

This YMCA branch is going downhill - not paying attention to the details. Fan in the women's locker room has been down for weeks and there's no apparent sense of urgency to fix it. It gets so humid in there that you can't get dry. Visitor to the front desk staff put her unsanitary tablet on top of he fresh towels and no one called her on it. Another day - out of big towels. Another day "no towels" at all. Not quite true - both used towel bins were full to overflowing and, again, no apparent sense of urgency to move them to the laundry. Would have filled out a comment card rather than posting this, but they have been removed. read more

Very bad customer service i have ever experienced. The people in the child watch are literally with no courtesy. Not a great place to be in. The customer service reps are very rude and with 0% listening capability. read more

Their gym is pretty good, but the one thing I can't accept is terrible child care. I have seen kids cry for extended periods of time without the the staff mending to them. I have seen very young children wonder away from the day care room when nobody noticed. If you are going to offer a child watch program, you better have staff that actually give a damn about the kids. You are better off driving to a different YMCA if you have kids. read more

Great staff and facility. There are always machines available and good classes running.

Been going here since I was a kid. They have continued to remodle it over the years. I believe they took out raquet ball. Why is raquet ball a dieng sport. It is so much fun. Great kids sports programs for getting your kids started in a sport. I recomment moving you kid into a more competiive league if he or she latches on to a sport that they really like. Nice Gym and friendly staff. read more
