I can't speak for the ice rink, but the roller rink in the summer is BAD. Don't go here, just go to the RiverRink instead. I'm surprised there aren't more reviews about this. The surface of the roller rink is so rough, uneven, and bumpy that it's unskatable, especially for beginners/tourists/casual skaters. It's not one flat continuous surface, but rather, it's a bunch of 2-foot plastic squares snapped together, and there are lumps at every single joined edge. Also, it was pretty small and crowded, even with timed tickets, so you're constantly dodging people. To be fair, I went on a Saturday. This rink is only good for taking a couple photos with the colorful decoration, and that's it. If you're actually trying to skate, don't come here. The other one redeeming factor of my visit was that there was a nice little water ice stand. If after all this, you still want to go.... you should also know that if you want to rent a locker, you can bring your own lock and use a locker for free (or just don't use a lock and use it at your own risk). The $10 "locker rental fee" when you purchase tickets just buys you a physical masterlock dial combination lock.

Terrible rentals skates, loose and hard like a rock and felt like I’m falling and braking my ankles anytime even though I’m an intermediate skater. Admission and rentals are also expensive.
