Manipulation score
CleanCompleted Nov 3, 2026 · 51 reviews flagged
How this score works
The score estimates how strongly this place's review record matches known manipulation patterns, from 0 (no signs) to 100. Verdicts: Clean below 40, Suspicious from 40, Likely Manipulated from 70; Review Drive when the flags are mostly staff asking customers for named reviews. It rises with the share of reviews flagged and how suspicious each one is.
- Burst
- — an abnormal spike of five-star reviews in a single day compared to the place's usual pace.
- Low activity account
- — the reviewer has almost no other reviews, photos, or Local Guide history; throwaway accounts look like this.
- Duplicate text
- — the wording is nearly identical to another review of the same place.
Verdicts are statistical estimates based on public review patterns, not accusations. Full methodology, signal definitions and known limits →

Good selection and many friendly staff. Very unpleasant in summer, as the building unfortunately isn't properly air-conditioned.
1★ · 2026-07-01
It's simply old and the cooling system is constantly breaking down.

4.5 stars 🌟 Next door you'll find Rossmann, Netto, a parcel station, and glass recycling containers. Two hours of free parking, large video-monitored parking lot. Those who know their way around can complete their shopping quickly, even t...

Shopping there in the summer is torture. No air conditioning. The staff are friendly, but the "accessible" checkout is almost always closed. I don't buy meat there at all. The ground beef once looked like coarsely ground pork.
2★ · 2025-07-08
Good selection and great staff. But don't buy anything that might have already been left out in the store during hot weather. Since there's no air conditioning, the chocolate melts and then hardens again in cold weather.
Broken bottle return machines
Reviewers report that the bottle deposit machines are frequently out of order or difficult to use.

It's actually a great store. The product range is really comprehensive. But almost every time I shop there, one of the bottle return machines is broken, and the other is being used by someone to exchange a large quantity of bottles that fil...

The selection is okay. The bottle return machines are frequently broken. The store is quite dirty and neglected.
3★ · 2024-12-05
Helpful staff, but the worst bottle return machine I've ever seen. This urgently needs improvement. The machine only accepts bottles without any dents, and the barcode must always be facing upwards when inserting the bottle. Too bad, I'll...
Parking fines and fees
Multiple customers express frustration with strict parking enforcement and unexpected penalty notices.

I'm a long-time customer and shopped there twice on a Saturday. Unfortunately, the parking enforcement system counted these two trips as one, resulting in a €35.10 ticket for six hours of parking. My email inquiry only yielded a curt reply....

The store is well-stocked. Unfortunately, they have a very unpleasant parking attendant (loyalty parking) who charges you a lot of money if you don't read and meticulously follow the fine print of the terms and conditions on the sign.
1★ · 2026-08-17
I will never shop at this store again. Anyone who outsources their parking management to this dreadful company, Loyal Parking, is alienating their customers for life. What they're doing here borders on extortion! I received completely unju...
Good for
- One-stop grocery shopping
- Finding a wide assortment of beverages
- Visiting during cooler weather
Avoid if
- Shopping during high summer temperatures without air conditioning
- Expecting hassle-free parking without strict rule enforcement
- Needing to return large quantities of bottles frequently
Recent pattern — Newer reviews increasingly emphasize an aging store infrastructure, persistent cooling system failures during warm weather, and growing frustration over external parking enforcement fines.
