The floor is TERRIBLE! I think its the original floor from 1979. Its dangerous and needs to be fixed properly. I just had my daughters birthday party there today and they had to clear the skaters from the floor due to the roof falling onto the rink. (One of many hazards.) Im not sure what was worse the roof that clearly leaks often or the bumpy floor with crappy repairs. For the price I would take my kids to a newer rink that puts a little more pride into the establishment. I spoke to the manager and asked for any type of compensation and he said sorry I cant help you. This is definitely NOT the rink I used to skate at when I was a kid. This unfortunately was a big disappointment.

I have young kids who are going through a rollerskating phase. So, we frequently go to different rinks all in the name of fun. I hate to say it, but there are better places nearby.We almost didnt stop. The exterior looks like an abandoned warehouse. They open sign wasnt on. It really looked like it was closed.1) price is on the higher end for the amount of time, compared to other local rinks.2) do they not pay their A/C bill? Its like a furnace in here.3) the place is run by high school aged kids. There is no DJ or customer service experience whatsoever. The games are facilitated half-heartedly, and employees appear they have better places to be.4) this is an authorized dealer for custom skate accessories. It just so happens Im in the market to buy a certain type of (fairly expensive) wheel. The young kid behind the counter had no idea what I was talking about. Instead of asking someone else, or making some sort of effort otherwise to assist me, he elected to shrug me off with attitude. I happen to know that if they didnt have these wheels in stock, they certainly have the ability to easily order them. I wonder what the accessory manufacturer would say about their vendor shrugging off attempts to buy their product.5) the floor is in complete disrepair. Do they call this place Roller City 2001 because thats the last time they fixed the floor?6) not a huge deal, but their floor guard is never on the floor. Although he can be seen monitoring from a chair outside of the rink, I think they call them floor guards for a reason.In a climate where roller skating isnt as popular as it used to be, its unfortunate to see a rink that cares so little for the few remaining fanatics.

Ive been going here since I was little .. my mom even went here growing up. She lived off this place , but now that Im at a age to realize the quality of the place its horrible. They have not upgraded the place ever. Their food is horrible frozen food ! Also hard as a rock . The prices are too high for the quality. Skating floor definitely needs a upgrade, thats why I never go anymore . No passion here at all ... I dont rent the skates but everyone I take with me always has problems with them being broken .I hate to say we dont have many roller rides and it would be amazing if they at least slowly upgraded.. hopefully starting with the floor everyone skates on .

I just spent $100 for our family to go skating. Im kinda upset with myself because I knew it was a dump four years ago when we had a birthday party there. Back then I asked for my money back because nobody in my party had been served food or gotten to eat before the session was over. So we were forced to eat and cut cake in between sessions which was literally like 20 minutes... They embarrassed ME that day all of our guests didnt understand why everything took so long.Flash forward to tonight four years later the place hasnt changed. Something is wrong with the bathroom setup; Im not sure if the toilets worked. Every toilet had crap in them, plus theres no liners . I was worried to let my 6 year old use the restroom.The FLOOR is unsafe!!!!! I found myself weaving around the cracks and damaged areas.They dont take debit cards at the food center when I saw that a drink cost $3.00 I was forced to get a soda from the vending machine...The area where you sit and eat was nasty and the tables were sticky; only a few tables werent broken.The sound system sounded like it was weak or had broken speakers.Plus it was empty on a Saturday night... I didnt understand why... when its the only one for milesIt needs a gut jobseriously...My husband and I said if it ever came up for sale wed love to purchase it and make it COOL.....We live about five minutes away from here and I dont think we will go back... I cant believe that I have to drive to Chino to get a real roller skating experience

The main point to any rink is the floor and their floor has gotten very bad and bumpy I stopped going there because of this. The people are nice but when I get on the floor its horrible. Roller City 2001 Please put some money into your rink. I will not go there again until I know it has been fixed and I no longer refer people either.

Daughter and her friend went for 2nd session should have only been $22.00 and the lady in box office charged them $30.00 and said the 10 min they were early was for the 2nd session. They were waiting in front til 8 now they are refusing to refund the $8. Will never give them business again

Went here 1st time after moving to Riverside 4 years ago and the place was a dump then. My kid recently went to a birthday party there for a classmate after the place had supposedly been renovated. Mother of birthday child called me upset stating that the place messed up their birthday booking, stating that they didnt have it booked but if they wanted to have a party it would have to be at 2pm instead of 3pm which was stated on b-day invites to her classmates sent out 3 weeks prior . Parent had difficulties with reaching all her guests parents on the party time change being moved up on such short notice to rearrange kid drop offs so many were a no show and owner/manager was unapologetic, unprofessional and rude to parent infront of children/guests as well as wouldnt provide a refund or discount for the mix up.On a separate issue, called rink recently to obtain info of skating sessions & lessons. Lost two weeks time because first, you cant even a an actual person on the phone to speak to. Left a few voice mails which no one returned, tried website to obtain info, however for 2 wks its been saying its under construction. When you finally do get an actual person on the phone they sound like teenagers and absolutely know or can offer any information regarding skating lessons other than they were provided by a third party company and couldnt provide me with a name or contact information for me to call. One person actually had the nerve to suggest I go on Groupon because she thinks they have a Groupon for lessons. Sooooo frustrating and ridiculous! Totally fed up with wasting anymore time via phone, this past Friday, my child and drove to the actual place and spoke to the manager face to face and explained our experiences and let her know if she really wants her business to suceed she needs to start with educating the people that answer the phones but to be honest I wasnt at all shocked by her complete lack of concern, made no apologies nor did she make any efforts to resolve the situation or provide info/answers to my questions and just pawned me off to a young lady who happened to be the daughter of the third party person who does the lessons. I let her know about about the awful experience with Roller City 2001 and how theyre not not doing her moms company any service and losing business because of it. In regards to the rinks renovations, all they did was slap some new paint on it, nothing else was repaired or replaced to improve it. 2 of 3 pairs of skates we rented had broken straps, frayed laces were you couldnt thread through the holes to lace them up. Inline skates had broken parts or buckles came unsnapped while skating. Floors and sitting areas still look like that havent been cleaned since the day it was originally built, bathrooms are still disgusting with black grout between the tiles, old/run down drinking fountains. I wont even discuss the food prep, food choices and eating areas as its a given it should be shut down. They claim the rink floor has been newly resurfaced when its sooooo lumpy in areas and dangerous it actually reminds me of ice-skating as a child in Detroit where a large field would have water that froze over it and the ice would be smooth in some areas but lumpy in others where the water settled over some chucks of grass and earth and would poke out through the ice where youd either trip over or would wipeout. No mgr in sight the entire 4 hours we were there and appears place is being run by a bunch of teenagers who actually seem to love working there, have positive attitudes and are actually helpful which is great however they lack proper management skills. Music DJ spent most of his time texting on his phone instead of making sure to switch skating directions after every couple of songs unless a customer went to his booth to request it.PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE let someone who actually cares and has the means to this buy this rink and turn it into a fun, clean, safe and cool place all the while still keeping it affordable for kids and families to spend time together.

Rental skates are broken beyond repair. The rink floor needs to be redone. Entire place is a throwback to the 80s with Zero upkeep done.
