This play centre is quite roomy and large for the children to run around. I have a 2 year old and a 1 year old who both had a great time. They wouldn't have a problem going again although I found it to be quite dirty and play equipment damaged. The nets on large play structure are ripped in some areas and lots of chocolate rappers and dust collected on nets throughout the structure.
We were there during the week there was only 1 other family there at the time with 2 staff members and 1 of them spent most of their time on the mobile. I think their time could have been better spent cleaning. Overall it was dirty and dark but has great potential if it was better managed.

Approximate cost: $7

Things have obviously gone downhill in the last 6 months. I first went to PlayZone about 5 years ago and it was lightyears ahead of anything else. Unfortunately, regular maintenance hasn't happened and the quality has suffered.
The netting through the main play area has many holes through it. The innovative Time Trial section that was introduced a few years ago should have been left alone with the gate entry, now it is just another part of the play area complete with shortcuts through the netting. Far too much area dedicated to party rooms, would be better to take 2 or 3 out and use that area more productively. And the one thing that I really noticed is that it was FREEZING in there (mid winter) and I don't feel the cold as much as most. As mentioned by others, there is not a lot for parents, the usual Melbourne's Child to read plus a couple of Cleos if you're quick enough.
The toilets were clean, which is a change from some, and the admission was cheap (IIRC it was $9.50 for kids 6 and over, $8.50 for 3-5 and zero for adults), but the pricing in the cafe looked high. Not a bad place for those on a tight budget, but if you can afford a couple of extra $ there are better places.
All in all, it's time for it to be shut for a couple of weeks and some serious work done on bringing it up to scratch.

Approximate cost: $9.50ea

children love playzone, everyone finds it fun and any day you go there, at least three birthday parties are going on, there are many different themes for parties.
The vertical slide is not always open, if you find it open it's definitely worth a try.

there's not much for parents to do, children and pre-teens aren't allowed to leave the place without the parents leaving with them.

Interesting environment for children to play and have a party. I found it to have good customer service and nice staff. It is a very safe place for different age children to play. I will recommend this place for my friend's children to play or have a party.
