What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
This former railway station primarily functions as an event venue, most notably for temporary amusement parks like Playland Park and circuses. Visitors enjoy the family-friendly entertainment and the potential for all-inclusive ride tickets during events. However, the site's appeal is entirely event-dependent, and some have noted minor issues with food hygiene.
"Good afternoon, first of all, I'd like to clarify that I was here for "Las Vegas," which is a ride. Well, I really liked that there's one ticket and price for all the rides, as it makes it easier to organize my money at home so I can be more confident that I'll have enough.
There are rides for almost all ages, including trampolines, even the one that spins in the air. Since I love adrenaline, I went on it about three times.
Another thing I appreciate is that everyone is very kind and honest. For example, my backpack broke, and I left it with a woman at a stand so I could have a little more freedom. I did it with fear, but my backpack was well-guarded throughout the hours and minutes, even a little girl was always attentive to it. They were very kind and patient with me. Thank you very much for that.
Something I didn't like was that some of the food was uncovered, causing flying insects to land on it, which was certainly uncomfortable for the customers. Secondly, I think they should see what they can do to keep the wheel or roulette wheel quiet. But after all that, it was all very good, fun, and cool."

"They should give that land a use, they only use it when the Play Land Park comes"
