Some find it to be a fun place for treasure hunting, with interesting items and affordable prices. They appreciate the friendly staff and the opportunity to find useful antiques and unique items. However, others describe the store as run down and messy, with cluttered aisles and a cluttered interior. Several reviews mention that the store can be claustrophobic, with a few noting that it seems to be used as a hangout spot for local kids. Some customers have expressed concerns about cleanliness, noting unpleasant odors and items that are broken, stained, or ripped without clear pricing.
