O'Fallon Park Rec Complex — Attraction in St. Louis

This is the Dirtiest YMCA I have ever been to! They have great amenities, friendly staff but they need to do a better job of keeping their facility clean! The locker rooms are atrocious!! The same stains, and hairs are in the same place they were the week before, which let’s me know they didn’t clean the showers, which I refuse to use because their disgusting….. some bathroom stalls are out of order and have been like that for at least a year or more! The Steam room is the same with hairs in the exact same place as it was a week before. And they are always short staffed when it comes to cleaning…. “trust me it shows”,…..can’t they reach out to corporate and hire a cleaning crew to help out? or the ones that do clean have them do a more thorough job of cleaning, like actually scrubbing down each shower thoroughly with bleach and soap….. it’s so frustrating because this ymca is located in a predominantly black area and it’s always filthy, why? …. And shouldn’t it be clean for sanitary purposes? And can we get the shower heads and handles fixed in the showers? It’s as if they’re ok with these conditions because it’s always like this. And the workout area has so many dust bunnies and trash along its boarders of the space ….it’s as if no one at all cleans the area!!!! And can we please stop allowing people to bring their radios inside the steam room, it’s distracting and disruptive. It’s a great ymca with all the amenities if only they would keep it clean and disinfectant it could be a more enjoyable environment to workout in. I would really like to hear a response to this review because I noticed the owner only responds to good reviews and not the bad ones...

I am posting this review about the thermostat reading 78 degrees in the fitness area and 75 degrees on the tract today 7/19/2023 at 6:00 a.m. It had gone down only slightly an hour later. On Monday morning it was worse!! it was reading 79 degrees....This is entirely too hot and dangerous for much activity. This is also a time when Seniors are using the facility which makes it even more risky for a serious medical incident. Is there some way to better control the temperature and humidity during the Summer months? There is no one available on the staff to adjust the temperature at that time so we either leave or suffer and limit over exerting. Please help, the summer will be...

Today was my first time using this facility. It was disgusting! the locker room is infested with flying insects and smells horrible. I got into the indoor pool and stepped in what felt like a pile of sand. I cant help but to feel like the surrounding neighborhood is the reason this facility is being neglected the way it is. I don't understand how the YMCA expects the people of that community to pay their hard earned money to use a facility that has been neglected the way it has. This place needs to be shutdown until the necessary cleaning is complete. Staff also needs to be retrained and held accountable for the lack of cleanliness and care this facility...
