Went last night for a semi private event.In my opinion,that's the only time to go.I was happy to see it seems they made some improvements since the last time I went,however the floor is crappy with a few rough patches that need to be worked out.
Maybe it's just that I've been spoiled by high end rinks like Roxy,Metropolis,Lloyd's and the Paradise that are all sadly no more (except Lloyd's,but I don't get to Canada as often as I used to).I liked Surfside for their staff and great floor,but they are gone as well.
So all I have now is this place that when it's public skate,is overcrowded and full of constantly falling and crawling kids...I have also run into the surly manager someone mentioned in a filtered review which,in combination with everything else,keeps me away until such time as anyone rents the rink privately for an event I can wangle my way in to...
