I think this falls under tourist trap.
First, its not cheap! 45$ for a moment on the ice. They also completely overbook the thing. We had a reservation for 19h and arrived at 6h20 to see à HUGE row of people waiting. I'm talking about multiple hundreds. We could see many people resigning and just leaving after a while. (No refunds... obviously). We got on the ice at 19h45 after 1h25 of wait time. The ice surface is also quite small. The other important things is to expect MOST people to do ice skating for the first time. It is very dangerous ! Be carefull, people falling, and holding on to whatever they see... not fun. Do not expect to go there and do smooth circles, its a jungle and you have to stay focus to dodge any incoming threath. Being from Québec, I am good on ice skates, but i had multiple collisions during the hour over there.
We had fun skating but man... it comes with a lot of negatives.
