The place was dingy, the equipment was old, and the service was slow and rude. There was only one guy working there (which I understood from other people is typical) and he had to not only man the register and shoes and whatnot, but also ran the snack stand, and had to go out to lay out foam pieces that were used as bumpers. I told the guy that I was waiting for some friends to arrive and asked if we could get two lanes. He said that was fine and set me up with two lanes and said he'd start them we I was ready. I waited around for 10-15 minutes for my friends and went back in line to ask the guy to go ahead and turn on the lanes because I didn't want to wait any more. Of course, there were 5 people in front of me and I sat in that line for a good 15 minutes. I saw he was the only one there so I tried to be sympathetic. My friends came and I finally went to bowl. This place charges based on time. I saw the guy look at the clock and rounded the time down a few minutes when we started. Slihgtly annoyed, I let it go. After coming back at the end of bowling, the guy charged me $5 extra. I asked him what the discrepency was about and he said that because I held the lanes that could have been used by other people so he charged me extra. It would have been one thing if the place was booked, but the guy had at least 4-5 other lanes that were still unoccupied. When I tried to debate it with him, he told me that I needed to have some common sense. I think the guy was the owner. He was a rude a**hole. I'll never go back there again. The cheaper cost does not outweigh the lack of quality. I wouldn't recommend it to anyone.
Pros: Cheaper cost, novelty
Cons: Dirty, Rude Service, Slow Service, Old Malfunctioning Equipment
