Accessibility
Pros:
"Also there are many bus routes nearby so it's easily accessible."
"Most buses for the Bexley area stop outside at the clocktower."
"Served by over 20 bus routes with the borough's main bus hub out front, plus ample parking."
"Nice big shopping centre with everything you need, plenty of parking (except at Christmas!) and lifts up and down the length of the centre so never too far to walk."
"The shopping centre has its own 2 storey car park, with the entrance in Albion Road."
"You do have to pay for parking, but it's a reasonable price all the shops are within a short walking distance from the car park."
"Decent parking and pedestrianised outside so nice and safe."
Cons:
"Parking bays so small nearly impossible to exit car."
"Car parking charges are an absolute rip off."
"If you do stay more than an hour by one minute you've got to pay £2 for 2 hours."
"Parking is a no-no unless you want to pay, except on Sunday when you can at least park in the adjoining roads for free."
"Parking charges doubled in past month."
"New parking system is terrible. Does not take credit card?"
"Parking tickets payable by 3 or 4 machines in whole centre that only accept correct change."

"Over the years the variety has diminished and there are few if any specialist shops."
"Not a bad shopping centre but not the greatest range of shops."

"Security are always about and visible so you will feel safe and secure."
Cons:
"But even with the presence of security it's hard to feel safe, comfortable or welcome."
"This place is terrible, kids out of control, security no were to be seen."
"Unfortunately this whole area is getting very run-down and with all the school kids that try to terrorise everyone with their constant fighting and anti-social behaviour, it is not really a place to go unless absolutely necessary."
"Centre often violent due to large numbers of school children fighting or just being abusive in large numbers."
"Nothing special. Felt ill at ease as no security/police presence. Constantly looking over my shoulder at unsavoury types walking too close behind."
"Very bad, I was on my way home from work when I wanted to stop in for something to eat and browse the Christmas stuff available when I got stopped by security and told to leave."
