Right, let's not have an attendant on site so we can suck the customers dry with the pricing while locking them in until a credit card's given up. Are you kidding me? I was there 20 minutes and had to pay $26.25 while being held prisoner until I did so. This is s a disgraceful 'business' practice - and shame on this strip mall that's considered one of DC's first neighborhood shopping centers (opened in 1930) for allowing customers to get ripped off in such ugly fashion.

This is even after I have scanned the free parking code at the store I visited and exited. The parking App is called "Metropolis" and it is a total JOKE.

Even though I have lived in DC for a few years, I embarrassingly was not a member of the DC library. It was really easy to go online and fill out a form. When I was confused, I was able to easily get help online. Although I have not had a chance to use the library building, I have been able to go there to pick up books. Each time I have been in and out very quickly. They have a system of how people walk through so that people are not too physically close to each other. The location is incredibly convenient to the metro. I really appreciate how nice everyone has been and how easy they have made it to take out books. Thank you to the staff of the DC Public Library and the Cleveland Park Library for making life easier in these crazy times!

Chevy Chase Neighborhood Library is a great place to study and have time of peace and do what you need to do. I tried Starbucks, tried time sharing places, even tried offices, the library is the place I can accomplish the most. Staff are nice and welcoming for new people. I wish they could walk me to the shelf I needed, and not just point in general direction, the obviously want enough. But one of the library visitors was happy to help. Very quiet library. Lots of places to choose. And staff that could be little better.

The stores here aren't as exciting as they used to be. Whole Foods is a reason to come to this area (they also validate for discounted parking). There are also some nice restaurants such as Capital Grille (fully validate), PF Changs (no validation) and Maggianos (across the street). Bloomingdales is near PF Changs. There are other high end retail stores on the block. The parking garage at Wisconsin Place is approximately $3/hour. Look for street parking first (not just because it is cheaper). The garage is usually quite full so you'll need an extra 15 minutes just to circle and circle inside the garage. Take a picture of the level you parked your car to increase the chances of finding it again. Take your parking ticket with you since you can pay at the automated pay stations near the elevators.

There is one positive review of the LOCATION of the embassy that has nothing to do with the quality of service. This one positive review is strategically placed there to skew the overall rating based on actual honest reviews. Notice that it has pictures as well because that is viewed favorably by the Yelp algorithm, how sneaky! The truth is every transaction I have had with the consulate has been a frustrating experience. I rarely get a reply to my questions by email, and the few times I did, all I got was a link to some instructions on the consulate web site that clearly indicate the who ever replied to my email did not even read it or understood my question. I find this to be extremely incompetent and unprofessional behavior. I wish the Egyptian government would do something to remedy the horrible image that this consulate is projecting internationally. I wish Yelp had minus stars option because that is how I would rate this entity!

I guess the customer who rides metro regular really gets screwed as driving downtown is horrific by itself. The ads all tell us the train is easier with the endless delays, filthy cars and lack of any management in stations. I did pick up an idea if you don't want to pay. I watched this one go by while the dude in the little hut is playing in his phone. A woman has a small child plus a stroller. She sends the kid through the end turnstile which opens when the kid touches the card to the card reader. She walks on through with the stroller and pays nothing (aside from the kid). It's genius. Maybe Elmo is available to be hired.
