I really like this Y location - great size, nice front desk staff, and communicates well given all the construction happening around it. Even when it’s packed parking isn’t really an issue, and there’s lots of equipment to choose from. My only complaint is there used to be a really friendly parking attendant - smiling, always greeting and keeping an eye on things. The new main parking attendant is consistently rude, not good at directing people when traffic in and out gets heavy, and seems overall to just not enjoy her job. I know everyone has bad days but it sets the tone of entering the gym and the previous attendant was much friendlier.

While I'm sure what is left of the Ymca at this location is fine but,, there is no pool at This Location. This information would have been more helpful before we walked a mile and a half there... and back in 90+ degree heat. The photos are still on their website for Pools that no longer exist. It would be helpful and more accurate to remove those photos so you don't mislead people in the future. Eric T. Hogan

UPDATE!!!!!! The Downtown Y will be under construction tentatively for the next two years to expand and make it more accommodating to the growth of Nashville. Unfortunately, during this time my favorite amenities have been suspended the chapel, pool, sauna, and steam room. The temporary female locker room has relocated off the main wellness floor and is much smaller but doable. Group fitness rooms A and B have not been impacted however; the cycling studio has moved to a smaller space off the track on the fourth floor. Staff ensures that the facility stays clean and offers assistance on updates and changes as needed.
