    I've taken my daughter roller skating a few times past couple of years and we've always had a good time at Rollarama.

    Fun place for a rainy day. Look out for the $1.50 advertisement coupons around town to make it…read morecheaper than the combo pass. Bumper cars are single rider only. Go-karts are fun, squeezed two adults into a car and it malfunctioned but they let us go another lap so it made up for it. Lasertag had a lot of ground to explore and hide in, with a side room area that I saw a preschool girl and her family playing in, if you need a smaller field safer for a younger child. Minus one star for games being out of service, two bumper cars and a handful of lasertag vests broken, and they really could use lockers for storing shoes for bounce houses, purses, umbrellas etc as they just get left at the starting gates or hold onto them in the attractions.

    This is an interesting little place. We brought the boys in on a Wednesday afternoon to kill a few…read morehours. Many of the attractions were not open (bumper cars, indoor go-karts, kids inflatable play area), and those that were tended to be underwhelming. The go-karts were fun, and the rides were generously long, but that may have had to do with the lack of crowd size despite the beautiful weather. The go-karts themselves were wildly different in top speeds, and your success on the track was based entirely on the kart you were assigned vs. any actual ability or strategy. No big deal for us, but there was, shall we say, a slightly more competitive family who were extremely annoyed by this, and were letting everyone in earshot know about it. Most of the arcade games were older and not in the greatest condition, with a few exceptions. What was oddest of all was that I found a roll of 5,000 prize tickets just sitting on top of a closed air hockey table completely unattended. I brought them back to an employee at the concession stand and there wasn't even a thank you offered. If it happens again, maybe I'll just the 5' Angry Bird. They also wouldn't honor the Yelp Check-in offer for a free game of Laser Tag. All in all, this place has seen some better days, and both boys enjoyed playing mini-golf at the place across the parking lot far more than they did playing at Adventure Family Fun Center, but you could certainly do worse if you're looking to kill a few hours with the kids.

    My husband is on a hockey team at this rink, and I have frequented here often with my kids and the…read moreplace is disgusting. Womens' bathroom: The bathrooms do not have a changing table (where are you supposed to change a baby!?!), the toilet paper is almost always out, the bathroom garbage overflowing, at least one toilet is typically clogged and soap is typically not stocked. The water fountain is disgusting. For an afternoon hockey game, only one heater is typically turned on so you can't actually be on the same side of the team you're routing for. The bleachers are literally the most disgusting bleachers I have ever seen in my life and they are always littered with various types of garbage. The glass has cracks on it, and the boards that cover the space between the rink and the bleachers are broken. As far as the ice goes, it looks worse than the Pens and Flyers ice during the rain last weekend in February 2019. It's super choppy and uneven, and you can see how the players have trouble skating on it.

    Technically this is "the Schenectady County Recreational Facility" even though there is exactly one…read moreactivity here, ice skating, so for once I won't submit a correction to the yelpbase. This is a sort of bare-bones rink, but it's quite decent and very much a recreational bargain as the somewhat higher-overhead winter-sports venues go. We shall start off with the good: the rink is in excellent shape and the ice maintenance appears to be stellar. Open public skates haven't been too crowded, so you don't have the problem of not actually being able to find space to skate. They have active hockey programs run by a private group, and a Learn to Skate program for all levels including adults, from age 4 and up. The public skating hours are a bit odd: 11-1 on weekdays (so no after school skating or evenings) and 2-4 on Saturday and Sunday (call to check or go to the county website). At this writing skate rentals are $3 and open ice fees $4, which is decent bang for the buck but not as cheap as a walk in the park. They do seem to have a year-round schedule but I could be wrong about that. The facility is, as noted, bare bones, and it feels a lot older somehow that it actually is. The seating area (for hockey or watching others skate) is basic bleachers and is not large but is nicely heated, so that beats watching soccer in November outside. There is a snack bar, but it's your basic junk food (although $1 coffee and instant hot chocolate provide a little warming). The entry way is very basic, there's no coat hanging area or check, and the bench areas for putting your skates on and off and the like are kind of crammed into the front part of the oval; it wasn't well designed for the flow of traffic with winter gear and walking off ice with skates, so there are traffic jams at the rink entrance. And there's no shop; how the county missed the revenue opportunity is beyond me, but they didn't build any space for one. So you have to buy skates and gear elsewhere and have your sharpening done. The rental skates, which we're not really using anymore now we bought some used ones, are a bit dodgy as rental skates usually are, but I've seen a lot worse. Tip: you can get here by turning into the "entrance" for Schenectady County Airport off 50, and it will loop you around the back. If you miss the entrance there are signs for the "Ice Rink" on Tower Rd. I'll try to review the Messa Rink at Union College for public skating as well, and the Apples-to-Apples comparison here is that I think Messa's a little nicer and has a somewhat more involved Learn to Skate program (as well as a dollar cheaper for public skating) but has more limited hours and is harder to get to because of the schlep you have to make from parking across the Union campus, but there isn't a huge differentiator once you're out on the ice. -- Update: so there's no entry in the Yelp base for the rink at Union, so for now, assuming those who want to ice skate in the area are reading this review for options, I'll add Messa's basic information here until the Yelpbase catches up: PUBLIC SKATING Sundays, 2-3:45p; Mon, Wed, Fri, 12-1:30p $3 for skate rental, $3 for entry To get to Messa, you go to the intersection of Van Vranken and Nott in Schenectady, turn into what is called "Alexander Lane" and the rink is on your left about 200 yards in. However, parking is restricted everywhere, your best bet for public parking is to enter "Gracie Lane" off Nott, directly opposite Peter Pause, and walk uphill to the rink.
