Best Gyms with Child Care/child Watch near San-diego, California

It is a beautiful area but why did they forget this area we are sitting on dirt watching our children play baseball theres bleachers in 3 spots but the fourth area is all dirt 🤔🥺🥺🥺

The facility itself is adequate. It seems to be regularly cleaned at least. It's smaller than other San Diego Y's and doesn't offer all the amenities of the larger Y's but at a basic level it does the job. However, I have to agree with other reviewers of this Y, the customer service (entry & front desk) in the mornings is awful. They are not helpful at all and quite often the employees in these areas, their attitudes border on arrogance. I find it to be truly comical. They lack knowledge about the YMCA's published policies & shouldn't be in a customer contact position at all. Additionally, Jackie Robinson Y, seems to have as many days when its closed or "closing early" as to days when it's fully open. But its one of the cheaper Y's in San Diego and you get what you pay for. On several occasions I've seen little girls who I assume are kindergarten or 1st, 2nd graders, inside the male locker room with their dad's, I guess. I've seen this not only at this Y but others in the area. There are signs asking men not to bring opposite sex small children into the male locker room. Strange they don't already know NOT to do this.

Worst customer service ever. They have an issue that they need to close the pool for around 2 weeks. I only pay my membership for my kids using the pool but we have to stop using that because of their issue. I asked to extend or refund my membership for those 2 weeks. Then they said they cannot do that. That meant I lost money for my 2 weeks family membership. It's so stupid, doesn't make sense to me. Why they could do that . I paid my membership for a month but can use only half month. Super stupid customer service. No more membership here.....

They are amazing! We have been stuck at home with flood damages and horrible mold smells when my apartments were not able to provide us with shelter but everyone else that was in the flood got hotel rooms and whatever reason they have we didnt get one … YMCA , they were able to provide us with a hotel and other resources. When i gave up they came to me like an angel 💜 our family really appreciate’s everything they are doing for us !

Spectacular state of the art facility with as many machines, weights, and classes as you could possibly need. The facility was very well maintained and the young man at the front desk was courteous toward us visiting from out of town. Our YMCA membership was easily found and accepted...we are thankful for the great customer service he provided. Highly recommend this YMCA if in San Diego!

Avoid this YMCA. Get your monthly membership elsewhere. Copley-Price Family YMCA is very poorly managed. You never see any leadership mixing with members, it seems they are too busy in their offices. Overall, there is absolutely no respect for the Customer Experience, the facility is filthy, smells, and staff are a joke. 1. They are replacing 20-30 year equipment, closing the fitness area FOR THREE DAYS!!!! Any other facility would complete the task overnight, but not the Y. They would rather inconvenience paying members for THREE DAYS. It's absolutely outrageous!!! (See picture) 2. Management closes the popular Meditation Room regularly for staff events when the Community Room, the Coffee Bar area, and other rooms are available. Management would rather inconvenient paying members than manage the facility correctly. (See picture of recent event) 3. Front Desk staff 4-6 individuals at any given time are on their cell phones, gossiping, slouching in their chairs daily. No, Hello, no goodbye, nothing!!! 4. Fitness Floor staff are a pathetic. They are always behind the desk staring at the computer. You ask for assistance and they act like they are being bothered. Some of them couldn't save you in the event of an emergency. For example, Eza walks around pretending to count people, his clothes don't fit, he bends over, and you see his arse, etc. Other floor staff are similar in their overall presentation. 5. The facility is filthy, dust everywhere, bathroom stained toilets, takes weeks for repairs of equipment and restroom facilities. Management has ONE outsourced facility hygiene individual for the ENTIRE FACILITY!!!! Absolutely no YMCA staff cleans or tidys up the facility. Just completely uncalled for. 6. 70-80% of staff are not Health or Fitness focused, most would be considered obese. So much for leading by example. Bottome line, I have never seen any manager visible or interacting randomly with members. No name badges, no information center with pictures outlining Management for Members to review. Just because this YMCA is in an socially and economically disadvantage area doesn't mean the Customer Experience should reflect such. Avoid this YMCA. Get your monthly membership elsewhere.

This location is awesome. The staff is very cool. I have been to all the locations, and this one is by far the cleanest. I used to complain about all the high school kids running around, but after seeing them acting more respectfully, I'm glad they are at the gym. A lot of kids are less fortunate to have such a great place to enjoy and do healthy activities rather than our on the streets doing drugs. They also just got all brand new cardio machines that are way better than any I've seen at other gyms. Love this place🤟

I never write pointed reviews, but I felt compelled to after seeing the last review by NATIVE SD posted with 1 star. Clearly, this man has WAY too much time on his hands to be complaining THIS much about a gym. Who complains about a gym replacing all cardio equipment? Like, you literally cannot please people LOL. I for one appreciate when I see my membership dollars being spent on renovations! This location is huge. Bright, airy, both indoor and outdoor work areas with some duplicates of machines, makes for easy access and minimal wait times. Other locations (looking at you, MV, are dark, dirty, and feel like you're in a dungeon). Here, they supply freshly laundered towels always, have full sanitizer bottles, and I always see someone cleaning the floors or windows when I am there. The staff has always been very helpful and kind to me whenever I need something; usually for messing up my locker combo .__. Calling these people "not health focused" and "pathetic" as NATIVE SD did is...a choice. Maybe a bit of projection happening there, who knows! The comment about the bathrooms being under repair, there are literally SEVERAL bathroom locations including locker room, downstairs near the coffee shop, outside facility area, AND near the pools. You will find a bathroom if one is OOO, I have faith! Anyway, love this gym and the vibes, keep up the good work and take all the time you need for new renovations ;)

Update: 10/9/24 I cancelled my membership at Copley and they never did it and keep charging me. I signed the application 3 weeks ago. No one cancelled my membership, no one contacted me about any problems with cancellation. I just found a new charge at the start of the month. I still haven't received my return. I am very upset with YMCA work, since there are no complaints about the gym itself, but the management of the organization is very bad. The employees do what they want and no one is responsible for anything. And when I asked to call the manager, they just brought me another employee who does not decide anything. As a long-time YMCA member, I'm usually very satisfied with the helpful and accommodating staff. However, I had a disappointing experience recently with an employee named Kal. When I requested assistance with parking my scooter, Kal seemed unwilling to help and instead complained to other workers about my request. It took several asks before he finally brought over a manager, who was able to quickly resolve the issue. Kal's passive-aggressive attitude made me feel uncomfortable. I hope the administration will use this feedback to provide additional customer service training to ensure all members receive the same high level of service I've come to expect from the YMCA.

The worst experience I've had with a YMCA. I've been a nationwide member since elementary school, but this one is by far the worst. They are literally incompetent and lack comprehension. Buyers & scholarship holders beware. They have charged my card about $200 over the last two months. I communicated with multiple people to ensure my card wouldn't get charged & a pause was issued. Despite my card rejecting the payments, my bank tells me they continue to run the card multiple times until a payment goes through. They harassed me, claiming I owed them a payment, only to later admit, "Oh, it was a mistake, you did pay..." Yet, they can't communicate when they decide to start charging my card $100 a month? This is insane. Finally put a stop payment on my card for this establishment. Start your membership at a different YMCA!

Bay Club Carmel Valley is an outstanding facility that truly has it all! From cycling classes and Pilates to a game room for the kids and a swimming pool, they offer activities for every age and interest. The variety of amenities ensures there’s something for everyone, whether you’re looking to work out, relax, or have fun with your family. The staff is incredibly kind, respectful, and always ready to help. The facility is well-maintained, with everything in excellent condition and very clean, which adds to the overall positive experience. I highly recommend Bay Club Carmel Valley for anyone looking for a top-tier fitness and recreation center. It’s worth every penny!

The 11am Sat dance class is the best! Bolly Dance! So fun and lively! The Wed 12pm dance class is also amazing with the lights off and disco ball. So fun! Wish it was possible to drop in to a class for around $30 instead of $50. Gym equipment is outdated but the vastness of the entire complex make up for it. Wish the basketball court schedule was online because sometime the pickle ball people play where the basketball court is for a large chunk of time so it's hard to get to play if you don't know the schedule. Wall yoga is really nice. Also wish the cafe sold espresso drinks. Would love to have an iced latte after my workout around noon but they only have coffee up until 11:00 a.m. but it is free so you have to work out really early if you want to enjoy the coffee but I wouldn't mind paying for a coffee if they had a espresso machine so I could go there workout and then have a coffee so I can go to work super energized. I think as well since it is like a community center it would be nice if they had community events like meet and greets or dinners or appetizers or just social hours so that way everyone could have a chance to meet each other because you start to recognize people because you go all the time but it would be nice to have an event to break the ice and make some workout friends to help keep you motivated and so you would have a gym buddy! Because my friends didn't want to pay the price to join so I didn't have a gym buddy so I cancelled my membership.

This gym has it all and it feels like a second home. You can workout, relax, and even meet new friends. In just one month, I have become more fit, happy, and relaxed. Thank you, Bay Club for keeping me young! My father passed away just before Thanksgiving, and the Bay Club has brought life back into my life!

We re-joined the club in Feb. We love it since it is great location for the area resident and ample parking spot. They have added great new classes like Ignite and Hit. They also have outdoor classes so inside classes do not get crowded. The reason for 4 star is with being a huge place with cafeteria there is a big need for recycling bin and unfortunately they have none. I did complain to one of the staff and he said he is completely all for it and he has mentioned to the management. Also equipment in the inside need to be cleaned once in a while.

Please do yourself a favor and choose a different club. The membership rate is ridiculous, the staff it rude, there is no parking and there is no available equipment like treadmills, bicycles and stair masters. You can get much more and better at different club. This club is not worth it for what they charge for membership

I am 70 years young and have joined the Y several weeks ago. I look for group classes to motivate and make connections with my like minded classmates. Our instructor Eddie is welcoming and inclusive in his instruction. I appreciate his highly motivating style and education of the body. Please consider expanding these type of classes. Thank you.

Pro: It's close, convenient and good value . Con: the choice of music is less than desired at this borderview y...not all paying members care for their ultra high volume speakers blasting their personal choice of dancefloor music in the gym

They never clean the gym floor. If you see the floor when sunlight comes in through the window, you will see a lot of dust and trash everywhere. I better look for different gym asap.

This was the location of my covid-19 vaccine. The organization was great. There were people arriving without the proper documents. Yet the staff treated them fairly and rapidly. The time waiting was reasonable compared to the people present. The YMCA was very clean and well organized. Congrats 🥳 for providing this great service to our community.

Claudia and Victoria were extremely helpful and friendly. Would definitely recommend.
