You can have an excellent view of Michigan Avenue and the Cloud gate at the same time! <3

Cute city rink (Like Bryant Park , NYC). Skates were poorly sharpened (mid January), but we asked to switch them. Polish guy at counter was rude; others super nice! :)
Definitely bring your own skates if you can, then it is free and no lines for rental. Only bad part about a nice Saturday is the number of people on the ice. Too crowded for an experienced skater .
Bring your own skates , it is free to skate ! Otherwise it is a long wait for $10 rentals, especially on the weekends.
Experienced skaters beware: wobbly newbies and tore up ice abound. Lockers take four quarters.
the ice rink is actually cooled, so even if its above freezing you can still skate here
my first experience today and it was really fantastic.
Great to visit early in the morning with no crowds

Take advantage of down times like Monday afternoon (:
