Dryades YMCA

"This YMCA is a great hidden gem in New Orleans. It was about a 10 minute taxi ride from the French Quarter, I could not find an outdoor pool open, That would let me swim, it was November, this YMCA was all I could find close to my hotel. the water temperature was cool great for swimming laps, got in 3000 , they honored my YMCA pass from home and I did not have to pay. The lady at the front desk was kind of a hard ass, slight language barrier, always hate when people expect you to know the rules when you just told them it was your first time here. They made me shower before I could get in the "

"My mother attends the YMCA, it's an amazing facility. she boasts about how she can workout and swim. She's loves the pool, it has been her favorite thing to do since a child. The guards are wonderful, very polite and on guard at all times. I appreciate that because my mother is old and I can't be there to watch her all the time. She talks about one guard in particular that's been a great help to her, her name is jernika (sorry if im misspelling it) she talks about how she is always watching her and giving her advice on what she can correct and how to save herself or others in case of emergency"

"I was just turned around by the front desk lady because the main branch that I signed up through in a different location was closed today, so she couldn't "verify" my membership. But their scan in system is "old" as she says thus it doesn't work. So I can't scan in like I can everywhere else but because the other location happens to be closed today, you can't verify my membership and denied me entry. This is poor practice and was a terrible experience at this location. Fix your equipment."
