DO NOT BOOK A PARTY or EVENT HERE…read more
JUSTIN MARTI IS THE WORST MANAGER I'VE EVER MET. He is rude and condescending, talked down to my wife AND over her, often gas-lighting her when she brought up issues with his attitude. Then did the same to me and other guests in my party. He's a bully, tries to emotionally intimidate you. Look at my timeline below to see what kind of person he is.
I looked through all the reviews on this site, and noted that his name is brought up over and over again, but you'll also see that he tries to defend himself, often trying to blame customers instead of taking responsibility. I can only imagine this is a pattern of behaviour that he thinks will gain him success. Given that he's an angry 30+ year old stuck in a dead end job managing a trampoline park, I feel sorry for him. He's probably tried to get another job but this is the only one that allows him to flex his "dominance and control". I run a business and if any employee of mine (let alone a manager) had talked to any of my clients the way that he did - he'd be gone in a second. From the reviews though I can tell that management, condones, if not encourages this type of aggressive behaviour from him.
I encourage anyone that's had the same issue I've had to contact consumer protection BC (https://www.consumerprotectionbc.ca/complaint-assistant/) and report the incident. If you've experienced racism from him (which many reviews have indicted) you can also report him to Human Rights BC (https://www.bchrt.bc.ca/) . I've also included other reviews where you can obviously tell that Justin is replying back to all the complaints - you should note his micro-agression toward women, and multiple reviews indicating his racism - seems to me when multiple people are calling him out for the same thing, it's probably because there's a ring of truth to it, but that's my opinion.
Keep in mind, I have receipts, video, and multiple witnesses - heck even the other staff members themselves to corroborate my story, though I'm sure Justin will make something up to justify his actions. I've included a screenshot of the video.
After doing some research, he's worked with EAP since at least 2017 (public information) and in the same role. It's a wonder that he's never been promoted.
One other thing to note is that this place is disgustingly filthy, used socks left all over the place, the smell is atrocious, bathrooms had vomit on the floor, - I've taken photos and am also filing a case with Fraser Health.
Before our event, I received conflicting information about the party room access. When I raised concerns, the response was curt and dismissive. Things escalated when the manager, Justin, called my wife and spoke to her in an aggressive, condescending tone that left her visibly shaken. When I followed up, he doubled down, blamed us, and eventually hung up on me.
At the venue, Justin was even more confrontational--making sarcastic comments like "I don't need to give you therapy" and "I made up that rule for you" when questioned about a surprise payment policy change. He refused to honor the original credit card payment, forcing us to pay again with debit and delaying a refund for over 30 minutes.
Multiple guests and even uninvolved parents witnessed and called out his behavior. He threatened to cancel our pizza order when others spoke up. A staff member later apologized privately, admitting "he's known to be like that," which only confirmed our experience.
What should've been a fun celebration turned into an unnecessarily stressful and upsetting ordeal.
