best place ever my whole childhood was here I don’t rlly remember not liking anything it was amazing they used to pick me up from school and take me there and I had so many friends and I wish I can go back
Emma arellano · 5/5 on Google · 10 months agoTerrible place. The owner doesn’t even want to be there. She says she can’t even afford to feed the kids or turn the lights on. When she turned the lights on the reception area was very dirty and hadn’t been cleaned it what seemed like years.
Mona G · 1/5 on Google · a year agoSTAY FAR FAR AWAY. THE STAFF IS HORRIBLE & MEAN TO THE KIDS. MY KIDS BEGGED ME TO NEVER TAKE THEM BACK. I WOULDN'T EVEN GIVE THEM A STAR AT ALL, BUT THE SITE MAKES U.
