Fantastic experience: It’s my 1st day on a 3 days trail. Office personnel very professional and friendly. Amazing atmosphere: you can see staff and their customers know each other well enough to have relaxed conversations. Customers are disciplined and friendly. —- Gym good equipped and not over crowded. Pool same thing. It’s a place meant for relaxation! I was impressed by the cleanliness and the smell reflecting it. Anywhere you go it smells nice and is spot clean! Definitely recommended to anyone. Family, kids, individuals. Anyone that is kind fits. The place is fantastic. I will definitely become permanent member! Antonios Kiflemariam !

Anna T 4 years ago

Fantastic experience: The equipment is great, it’s never too crowded for how intimate a place it is. I have yet to take an exercise class, but walking by, they all look interactive and fun. The staff is kind. They aren’t always easily accessible, but I go later in the evening so I understand. I wish this location was open longer hours, specifically earlier on the weekends. The parking is never crazy, I’m always able to park right in front of the building. Thanks Druid Hill Y for being great!

paultina Priddy 5 years ago

Negative experience: I am a member and they never told me they changed the time on Sunday it said it's not open until 12but when I called it said they are not open on Sunday until 1pm it to hot to walk at that time to do anything! I don't have the luxury of transportation

The Y in Druid Hill

We are so sorry that we did not properly share our hours and that on Sundays it is too hot to walk to the center. We expect the weather to break soon and hope to see you!

Trevor Coe 5 years ago

Fantastic experience: The Y in Druid Hill is a clean, up-to-date facility that I frequently visit to lift free weights and use cardio equipment. It's seldom crowded but other guests are friendly. The staff is extraordinarily friendly, courteous, helpful, and diligent. The facility also has an interesting history as it's where eminent African-Americans from Baltimore such as Thurgood Marshall and Cab Calloway learned to swim.

Erika Ryles 5 years ago

Fantastic experience: Location is accessible and clean; prices are more reasonable than other locations (probably because of the location); and, the people are amazingly warm and will help anyone. Typical inner city parking but the entire experience erases any disquietude. The best part....they positively contribute to an unbalanced part of the city. Best, much needed location in B-more, imo.

Negative experience: I will continue to go to 33rd street. This location is not what I expected at all. Sadly we live in the area yet we have to drive to another location in order to enjoy ourselves. No yoga classes, bathrooms/locker rooms are horrible, the front desk staff couldn’t answer any questions I needed answers to. This establishment needs to be upgraded and have training sessions for their employees. At 33rd I know the staff by names, it’s always clean, the environment is just way better.

The Y in Druid Hill

Thank you for leaving a rating and review. We're glad that you'll continue to visit the Weinberg Y; however, we'd like to know more about your experience at the Y in Druid Hill. Please email [email protected] when you feel open to speaking with us. Thank you.

Fantastic experience: The staff is is super nice and helpful. I’ve spoken to Fern several times this week and she’s answered every question I’ve had. I did the FitQuest fitness assessment with Andre and he made the process easy breezy. I have a feeling I’ll have similar interactions with other staff. Also, the brand new cardio equipment is awesome. I’m really glad my husband and I joined the Y.

Lauren Estell 7 years ago

Fantastic experience: I just moved into the neighborhood and started attending this Y fairly recently. You can sign up online or in person. The staff are friendly and there are a TON of weight machines and free weights and a good selection of cardio equipment. They have these really nice video cycling machines and good treadmills and ellipticals. It is also a good price, i'm glad I joined! I have not used the pool but people seem to be enjoying it when I walk by. The place is clean. BONUS: there is a parking lot immediately across the street and there is usually street parking. The whole place gives me a good vibe. Usually I feel intimidated in gyms especially around the weights but I really like then layout of the machines, they are fashioned in a way that you have your own space to work out.

The Y in Druid Hill

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review, Lauren! Welcome to the Y! It sounds like you have checked out a lot of what we have to offer and we hope you get to check out some of the group exercise classes as well. We look forward to seeing you soon!

Brianna Jones 8 years ago

Positive experience: Group ex classes are good but the room need to be updated. Floor not clean ac not effective and ceiling leaked during classes....but the instructors endured. Otherwise a good club. Great for the community.

The Y in Druid Hill

Thank you for leaving a review, Brianna. We are glad you are enjoying the group exercise classes and our instructors! We will look into the cleaning schedule of the floors and the leak you mentioned. Thank you for supporting the Y and we look forward to seeing you soon!
