We came for a bday party where we spent on roller skating but there's a huge gaming/play area as…read morewell. Because skating was included in the party, I don't know the pricing. However, the skating aids (the little rolling walker-type creations) were $7 a piece to rent for the evening. The women's bathroom was very clean. Interestingly, the sinks, mirrors, and hand dryers are outside of the restrooms. Inside is only the stalls. This creates a nice flow of traffic and avoids any traffic jams inside the restrooms. That said, all the preteens and teenagers had to do their primping outside the restrooms and fully visible to everyone inside the skating area. While the party included pizza and drinks, many of us bought food items from the concessions area before the food came out. The food was a bit slow coming out but everything was good and the fries were top notch! I'd definitely come back just for the arcade or just for skating. It seems that doing both would be a much larger time commitment, and enough to fill a major block in the day if you wanted.

I am writing to express my disappointment regarding an experience I recently had during Wednesday…read moreadult skate night. I have been coming to this skating rink since I was a child and have consistently attended adult skate night for over a year, which is why this experience was especially upsetting to me. The first issue occurred at the snack counter around 11:49 PM. I politely asked for a cup of ice water and was told the stand was closed, even though the posted closing time was 12:00 AM. Less than five minutes later, I witnessed another customer being helped at the same counter. When I calmly asked why I had been denied service while another customer was assisted, I felt the response I received was dismissive and unprofessional. The second incident occurred on May 6th and involved my skate stoppers. One of my stoppers accidentally fell off before I could fully attach it, and I was trying to figure out a solution while also asking staff whether anyone had found the missing piece. I explained the situation respectfully and made it clear that I was not intentionally breaking the rules. However, I felt I was spoken to sarcastically and treated unfairly by a manager during the interaction. When I attempted to remove myself from the situation and seek help from another employee, I felt further confronted rather than assisted. The interaction escalated unnecessarily, and I was ultimately asked to leave and denied a refund despite trying to calmly explain my situation. I completely understand the importance of enforcing rules and maintaining safety. However, I believe all customers should be treated with fairness, professionalism, and respect. As a long-time customer who regularly supports adult skate night, I left feeling embarrassed, disrespected, and disappointed by how the situation was handled. I hope this feedback is taken seriously and used as an opportunity to improve customer service experiences moving forward -De'Aira

First, the bad: As a recreation center for adults, it's not…read moregreat. The fitness room is small and contains a handful of weights, ellipticals, treadmills and bikes that have seen better days. If you're looking for a replacement for your Urban Fitness membership, look elsewhere. But... The good: First, THEY HAVE AN AMAZING ROLLERSKATING RINK. Seriously, this thing is so 70s, but in a cool retro way (not in an outdated way) - I'm talking a disco ball, primary colors and everything. It's totally underutilized - they have tons of adult skates and a projector to throw videos on the blank wall in the rink...you could really pull together an awesome event in the space. Secondly, adult memberships are crazy cheap. Adult memberships are only $25 for a whole year and apply to all 26 Cincinnati Rec Centers and most city pools. Plus, all the money directly benefits the greater OTR community. I mean, as a community resource, it's invaluable. They provide a safe environment for kids in the neighborhood - they offer a drop-in after school program, field trips, a game room and extracurricular classes for kids ages 5-18. The thing is, even if you don't have a particular interest in using the resources, buying a membership sends a clear message that you support that these recreation opportunities remain strong and viable in as many places as possible. On the other hand, if memberships go down, it sends a message to the city and the City Council that their services are not valued and therefore puts the center's budget higher up on the chopping block.

Who knew there was a rollerskating rink in the middle of OTR? Here I thought those only existed in…read morethe 'burbs! Even more impressive, the skating rink here is in much better condition than the more notable places in the area. The skates are made from plastic and come in bright neon colors. Elsewhere you're stuck with dingy suede skates. During Final Fridays, the rec center opens its doors to all adults for three hours of roller skating for only $2.00, which includes skate rental. http://www.yelp.com/biz/otr-skate-cincinnati Tired of skating? Just head out to the lounge for some pool or ping pong. There are rooms with couches and televisions, as well as your traditional gym equipment. Membership to the OTR Rec Center is $25.00 a year, and applies to all 26 Rec Centers in Cincinnati, as well as the city pools. The money goes right back into the OTR community, which keeps the rec center open to provide after-school opportunities to youth. The OTR Rec Center is tucked away on Republic Street, which is near Findlay Market's Race Street entrance. If you're looking for a great place to stay active, or more so, to rollerskate, OTR Rec Center has you covered!

They play Christian music, the admission is only $4 a person, and the skate rental is free. Wednesday nights admission is $3 and skate rental is only $2. The place is super affordable! Weekends are more expensive, like $10 total per person, however they do have a family deal where if you have 4 or more people, each skater gets a free popcorn and drink. Other than skating, they have a concession stand, and they even sold slices of pizza from a restaurant, I forget which. They have tons of tables, which is really nice. They also have some arcade games, 2 of which are claw machines where you are guaranteed to be a winner of either candy, or rubber ducks/animals. My kids loved that. Where you rent skates they also rent out skate walkers for beginner kids, and they sell glow necklaces which my kids just had to have. They played a couple of skating games as well. My kids were begging to return the very next day, even though their legs hurt, which is a sign of good exercise. They also slept great that night. Win! I will for sure start going once or twice a month with the kiddos. I'm happy to have something new and fun to do with them.

Took my grandkids for something different to do. Prices were reasonable. Side note - cash only…read more Floor was smooth. Would definitely recommend and plan to go again. Great for birthday parties are just skating

Who knew there was a roller rink in the middle of nowhere!?…read more Actually, I had heard about this rink a year ago but couldnt find it. A youth outing last weekend finally brought me here. .... and all this time, it wasn't that far away from me! Go figure. Anyway. Charlie's Roller Rink is a low, rectangular shaped building with a little gravel parking lot. I didn't even see any signs as I pulled up (athough it was at night). The musty, old building smell hit me as I walked inside, but quickly faded as my eyes absorbed the building: a wooden floor surrounded with a waist-high wall barrier served as the roller rink. There were some pillars down the floor to support the rink, seating off to the side, a couple arcade games, and pool tables in the back. Up front is a counter for renting skates and beyond that is a small concession area with candies and sodas. Oh, and the bathrooms are TINY! But, I suppose that's actually kind of safe considering you're most likely to be wearing skates when you go. The walls are close enough for support. Can't have people falling and peeing all over themselves. We spent a couple hours skating around, participating in skating competitions, listening/dancing to music, and having a blast. The skates we rented were great! They've been maintained well (probably upgraded a couple times). I had no issues with the ones I wore, and my feet weren't even that sore the next day. I was actually a bit surprised that I enjoyed myself so much. It's not the fancy, larger kind of rink that I'm used to back home, but it's just as fun. Three stars because it's a small rink stuck in time; but four stars because that makes it kind of charming and fun!

Took almost 40 minutes to get there, only to find the parking lot empty at 9pm on Saturday…read morenight...I walked up to the sign at the door. Which stated "Roller rink is closed until further notice" The Thompson Family. Not impressed, there should be a notice online that states this info, then I wouldn't have wasted so much time getting there for nothing. Just saying. Only recommendation would be to call 1st before you waste your time/gas to get there.

Went to Skate America in Grove City and don't ever plan on going back. Their parking lot is small,…read moregravel, and has many holes. This is a very small facility; I've never seen a smaller roller rink. There should have been a cap of how many people allowed in, because it made skating and just moving around inside so difficult. Everything looks at least 30-40 years old here, our booth was wobbly and unstable. The carpet was old and stained. It was very challenging to move around on the carpeted areas, but also the rink, due to the extreme number of people in the building. I felt like I was in a packed bar or club. I can't overstate that there were way too many people and children. The rink itself is painted concrete, which I've never seen before. It is somewhat uneven, you can feel the small rises and falls in the concrete, but it's not too severe. There were A LOT of children with the little PVC skate-aid things, but skating as an adult was made extremely challenging & nearly impossible because of this. The music they played was fun, and there was some interactions from the DJ, like a backwards skate only, and "all girls only skate," and then "all boys only skate," for a song each. I did like that there are ceiling fans over the rink, to cool you down. The ceiling felt really low, which I think made the whole place feel even smaller. The bathrooms were pretty clean and well stocked, but I didn't like that there were no hooks on the bathroom stall doors. They did let me bring my water bottle in, which I appreciated. There were lockers, but we didn't rent one. Overall, this place is probably fine if you're a kid, but terrible if your an adult skater looking to skate. Go to United Skates or America on Refugee instead!!

It was excellent!! Just like skating in the 80s-90s- not a single thing has changed! Bring ones or…read morefives because the vending machines don't take credit cards. It was super fun and clean!
