I took off a star for two reasons : the address given on the ticket wasn't the correct address and we ended up in the wrong place, having the Uber driver change directions twice. Also, not that I care much about it but it does mention a snack and none was provided, just a water bottle. Otherwise it was an absolute blast and we loved it.”
