About

The YMCA of Yonkers, located at 17 Riverdale Ave, Yonkers, NY 10701, USA, is a community-focused organization dedicated to youth development, healthy living, and social responsibility. It provides a range of programs and facilities, typically including a fitness center, gymnasium, and aquatics facility, to serve the well-being and recreational needs of the local community.

The YMCA of Yonkers includes an aquatics facility with one or more pools. While the specific temperature of these pools is not publicly listed online, YMCAs generally maintain their pools at comfortable temperatures, often in the range of 80-84°F (approximately 27-29°C), suitable for various activities such as lessons, lap swimming, and recreational use.

What are people saying (AI review summary)? Reviews highlight significant issues across various programs and facilities. Key concerns include a lack of professional follow-up from program directors and unprofessional front desk staff. The transitional men's program is described as a 'horrible and disappointing experience' due to an outdated building from the 1800s with severe electrical/plumbing problems, basement flooding, overpriced rooms, and an alleged caseworker theft issue. General cleanliness is also a major problem, with reports of rats and a dirty environment. Additionally, customers find the payment system confusing, particularly the requirement to pay a week in advance, which often leads to misunderstandings about outstanding balances.

I have been in contact with the director of the Teen Program regarding some questions I had about the program and how our community might be able to assist. The director initially expressed a willingness to answer my questions about both the program and the YMCA. However, after reaching out as agreed, I did not receive a response and have not heard back since. I find this lack of follow-up to be unprofessional, especially considering the initial willingness to engage in a conversation.

This review is for the transitional men's program located upstairs. I lived there for three months before leaving. The building is extremely outdated from the 1800's, there are lots of electrical and plumbing issues, every time it rains, it floods the basement. The rooms are very overpriced, $500 for a crappy room. But there are no options in Westchester county. In addition, the caseworker Linda kept stealing from the tenant's rooms when they weren't there. Overall, a horrible and disappointing experience.

My daughter goes there I kinda like it however it’s always a problem when comes to payment. Your payment is due a week in advance not the week your on which to my brain it’s very confuse how Am I going to pay for service when I haven’t received it. However Arthur tries to explain but sometimes I feel he gets confused with his own explanations. I now feel to stop this headache for me I need to pay on a monthly basis not weekly nor week in advance I would know my month is paid and I don’t owe when the last week comes up on that week pay following month in full. Hopefully it works and they can stop saying I owe them 🤜🏽
