Would have given this place a higher rating if it we're not for my debit card being intentionally charged for more than my purchase. At checkout, I was asked by the clerk if I wanted a receipt. Unknowingly, I declined to receive one. The next day I happened to look at my bank statement and found that I was charged $37.53 for what should have been a $12.00 purchase. I was staying at the nearby Hilton so I went back to the store to confront them of what I had just found. I was met with an excuse that the transaction must not have been closed out and carried over into the next for which I must have been charged for as well. I have never had this happen and recognize that it was an attempt to cover up someone's I'll ententions. I was given the difference of the charge and my purchase in cash from the register.

Before you know it your food has been ready for an hour and you’re still at the bar! Oops. It’s just too easy to do this, but hey, that’s what vacationing...
Read moreWalked in picked out a bottle for $20, then lined up for the cashier. When he scanned the bottle, I explained I wanted to use my debit card. He said whatever and I stuck my card in the chip slot. The amount changed to $25. I said I want to do debit, he said it's approved you can take your card out. I asked for a refund since I thought a $5 fee was to much for me. He said no refunds. So I left.
Sad because we read all these great reviews here. As a Google local guide, I take reviews seriously. I'm suspicious that all these reviews are real. Many compliment the store on its great selections. Actually the store is very small and cramped. I found the liquor prices about 10 per cent higher than normal and the selection very basic. Beer selection was much better, but really this is more of a bodega than a...
