A tourist trap for sure, but we all fall for it don't we?! It's a great spot to window shop or actually shop. Some good food spots too if you're hungry. I wouldn't use the bathrooms though, they're not the best.

Wanted to love this place, but it's dirty and very much a tourist trap! You can't get 101st without someone asking you for something. Nice to have seen for myself, but a one and done stop.
