" I've never been that interested in the modular buildings line until this set piqued my interest. I've always been a big fan of noirish detective movies and so this set in particular caught my eye.
The look of this set, especially from the outside, is perfect! It's beautiful and stylish and has so many creative little details like the the "pool" sign and the printed windows. It's something you could imagine being ripped straight out of a Hollywood movie!
The interior is no less beautiful with a lot of really fun and interesting ideas. Details like the ceiling fan and the barber shop mirror to the cluttered detective's desk and table top fan are all really well put together.
I also enjoyed the build itself a lot. I didn't find it particularly challenging to put together, but I had a blast doing it. I really loved watching the set come together so well. In fact I had so much fun building it and enjoyed the end result so much I ended up going out and purchasing three more modular sets (the Parisian Restaurant, the Palace Cinema, and the Pet Shop).
One of the issues I have is of something I didn't even notice until I read some other reviews, which why I'm still giving this set such high marks. The walls of the first floor between the barber shop and pool hall don't go all the way up to the ceiling, which is pretty baffling and kind of takes away from the set once you're aware of it. I can't imagine why the set was made this way as it doesn't seem to serve any purpose that I can see.
Another minor gripe is the size of the rooms being so small. It's hard to imagine how easy it would be for people to actually play with this set outside of small children with small hands. This issue is especially prevalent in the pool hall room where the ceiling fan obstructs the ability to reach into the room unless it's completely removed. To be fair, the ceiling fan is easily removable and is fairly sturdy so you don't have to worry about it falling to pieces too easily.
Over all I would definitely recommend this set to any fan of Lego products. It's beautifully and highly detailed and tremendously fun to build! "
I would recommend this to a friend!

" This is my fourth modular I have built, and I definitely feel it's the best. This set is so detailed I just sit and look at it, and I am waiting for the characters to move. It is well designed and goes perfectly with my other modular. Keep it up lego!! "

" This set is a whole lot of fun, not just in building it, but goofing around afterwards. The floors helpfully snap apart easily so you can actually access each individual room after you've built it, but are secure enough that they won't fall apart. Realizing the mystery of the cookie smuggler as I was building it (hint: study the back of the box carefully!) was surprising after I realized there was no specific smuggler minifigure.
My only complaint is that if you have big hands like me, it can be pretty tough to get in there and move things around after you've built it. Bring tweezers! "

" This is now my seventh modular building, and slightly underwhelming compared to previous models. While the interior detail and playability features were given much more attention, the exterior detail and size seem to have given in return. It is still a very interesting build and works nicely as a standalone display piece almost as well as a play set.
I feel this building caused a turning point in the theme where visual impressiveness was compromised in favor of younger builders and players. If this was intentional, it was done very well, but the compromise is still clearly visible. "
