    My son LOVES this place.  Great place to take your kids, especially on a rainy Vancouver day when there is really nothing else to do.  The prices are pretty reasonable - I think I paid under $6 for my 3 year old. (it's a little bit more for 4 years and up).  Although I agree with the other posters, this place is quite dirty and could use some more regular cleaning.  

    I do appreciate that they have a lot of seating available for the adults though.  The other playcenter in West Van Park Royal has no where for the parents to sit!  Go Bananas also has a variety of snacks and drinks for your kids when they need something after playing.

    Update: forgot to mention there is free wi-fi here as well for those of you who don't have data plans.  Just ask the girls at the front for the password.

    Was here for a birthday party with my toddlers.  On the plus side, as someone else mentioned, there is lots of seating for adults and a tv (they had the hockey game on - bonus!).  It's in the mall which means it's easy to get to and sufficient parking.  Staff were polite and the food was decent.

    On the minus, wow was it ever dirty, and STICKY.  Yes, I know kids will be messy but I've been to many of these play centres and this one was one of the dirtiest.  The washroom floors were sooooo damp (yeck!!).  They could also use a bit more lighting as the play area was a bit too dimly lit.

    I'd go only if someone else was hosting a party there, but I would rather take my kids elsewhere.

    I second the other review, the setup is nice but it is dirty. The teenagers who work as cashiers couldn't tell me how often the place is cleaned. The air is stagnant and bits of dropped food are all over the place. My kid came down from the playcentre and had ketchup that someone left behind all over his shirt. Because the seating for adults is small I feel like I'm sitting in a hamster cage watching rat run around.

    Although my daughter LOVED going bananas at Go Bananas, I only gave it 3 stars...this is because it was dirty. I understand maybe not going through and cleaning it everyday, but  one would hope at least once every two weeks or so somebody would be disinfecting and dusting in there. But by the looks of things that's never happened...
    The price was great though and all the kids seemed to be having a blast! Please clean and we'll be back with big smiles :)
