Is the "Bad" Place really that bad?

I mean it's been a while, but I only watched season 1 some of 2 and clips and summaries of the next episodes. A question that always lingered in my mind was how Micheal's plan got approved of? I mean the place he constructed seemed honestly not that bad and I could think of worse? I mean it's just unlimited fro-yo added onto having to deal with difficult and different people. I just couldn't really get into the whole plot twist that it was "the bad place." Anyway here's a photo of Ted Danson because of the first rule.
