Crusty's Water Bed Palace is where Procrustes lives.

Business
Whenever someone comes in his store, he claims to be selling water beds, but when they get on he says Ergo! and magic ropes spring from the bed to stretch them to six feet. If they are too tall, he will cut part of them off, too short and he will stretch them.

The Lightning Thief

Annabeth and Grover gets tricked into trying out water beds, and with a snap of Procrustes's fingers gets trapped, but Percy manages to free them by tricking Procrustes, telling him how great they are and he should lay on his own bed. finally when he had done so, Percy yelled ergo, which caused ropes to spring up from the bed and keep Procrustes in place. Percy cut him with riptide for"sizing" and Procrustes turned to dust. After looking up the address of the entrance to the Underworld, they left the store. It is unknown what happened to it since Procrustes was killed.
