I've bought some really cute purses here and they just have to many cute things for adults and kids. I just got a box of 50 surgical disposable face masks for $39 that might sound like a lot but I've been seeing places around charging $2 to $5 a piece for 1 so just saying hats off to Pearson's for not price gouging

"Have you ever been on a long journey?" A quote, from a movie that a Val Kilmer character said,…read morethat I always liked. My wife and I are doing something similar to that. We needed a helping hand in planning a trip to Europe we are taking in November. I thought who better to help us than the place we relied on when we booked our honeymoon ten years ago, Pearson's Travel World. One thing that I like about going here is the smell of new leathery luggage that hits you as soon as you walk in. The staff has always greeted me upon entering, even if they are engaged with someone. They are not too pushy but they don't leave you hanging either. When get to the back, the ladies at the front desk of the travel agency are very kind and helpful. They are quick to get you talking with one of the agents. Over the years, I have spoken to a few different people and they each have been extremely accommodating and helpful. Sometimes planning a big trip, like a 10 day to Europe, can be daunting so why not let the pros do it for you. The agent that helped us this time, Chris, found us the best flights possible and he even changed a flight that ultimately didn't work for us the very next day. Overall I am very pleased this place and I will definitely go back to Pearsons's in the future for their service.

If you're looking for Spirit Airlines in the form of a hotel, you're at the right place…read more I've lived in Baton Rouge since Hurricane Katrina before moving to Houston in March 2018, and I've passed The Shades Motel almost daily. I had never thought too much of it; it's an old-school, unassuming, mid-century modern motel along the unofficial Red Light District in the Capital City. For years, I figured it was a makeshift brothel much like a similar...um...deca-flagged inn one mile north (if you're from Baton Rouge, you'll get it). I was completely wrong. The Shades Motel is a nice, quaint, no-frills motel whose footprint is much bigger than you'll see from the street. They have vending, ice and laundry machines, and the rooms clearly had some sort of renovation in recent years. I needed to return to Baton Rouge to surprise a former coworker in the hospital. On a tight budget from a slow month of work, I took a leap of faith and booked with The Shades Motel through Travelocity, where they have a 4.1/5 rating with nine reviews. I already knew where the motel was located, but even for an actual traveler, it's easy to get to because it's on Airline Highway (U.S. 61), the busiest drag in the city. My room was $55 for the night, $63 including taxes, etc., with check-in/check-out being 11 a.m. My transaction with the older Indian man at the desk was easy-peasy, and I proceeded to my room in the middle of the complex with my key and my belongings. Again, this is a motel, so each room, for all intents and purposes, has its own parking. My single king room was clean, smelled great and was equipped with local Cox cable, WiFi with the password was on the back of the TV remote, a sofa, a desk and *especially* a microwave and fridge. I am a huge germaphobe--possibly OCD--and I felt clean and safe enough to go barefoot in the room and in the shower. Naturally, the clientele weren't among the 1%, but they weren't anyone I felt threatened by at all, either. The bed was about what you'd expect from a no-frills motel--comfortable enough--and there was no shortage of towels. There was even the requisite Holy Bible in one of the nightstands. It was a great place to stuff my face, lay my head and commiserate about my life while bitterly watching my former coworkers at the local NBC/Fox affiliate... A little more about the location, The Shades Motel is located in the geographic heart of the Red Stick (Baton Rouge), just north of Florida Blvd./U.S. 190 and Airline Highway/U.S. 61. Sans traffic, you're about 20 minutes from Baton Rouge Metropolitan Airport, 20 minutes from the sprawling Mall of Louisiana, 20 minutes from downtown and the museums, and just over 10 minutes from Mid City, a large district home to great shopping, antiques and dining. But if you're into abandoned places as I am, you're walking distance from Cortana Mall. Formerly The Mall at Cortana, it was once a booming complex as recently as the late 2000s, now empty with locals walking about, pointing out which stores used to be where. I worked there at Aeropostale during the 2008 holiday season, and even did some shopping at Macy's before they closed in 2016. As uncanny as it sounds, the vacant Cortana Mall is definitely an attraction, but it's also worthy of a rebirth. Either way, you can still grab some deals at the Dillard's Clearance Center, one of the three remaining tenants and the only remaining retailer, or find a few other things at the stores along the perimeter. After a night of rest and reminiscing, I checked out promptly at 11 a.m. completely satisfied. This motel is conveniently located and included everything I needed, all while giving me a sense of safety and cleanliness at the right price. For my eventual next visit to Baton Rouge, I will definitely be checking in at The Shades Motel. Who knows? I might snatch up the Jacuzzi room. Just make sure to grab some Chinese at Gold Bowl down the street, my review here on Yelp. You're welcome.

I wanted help making plans and booking a trip to Hawaii. I talked to Melanie Williams on the phone…read moreand told her what I wanted. Having been to Hawaii before, I knew where I wanted to go and where I wanted to stay. She put an itinerary together and would not share details like what airline or what hotels were on the itinerary. I asked her to change some things and she did. She sent another itinerary but when I asked about details she said she would not give that to me. She only listed a total price and would not talk to me about it. I got the feeling that maybe she was afraid that I would price things and compare but I didn't know for sure. I asked her to change some things again and I never heard from her again. I booked the trip with another travel agent who was glad to share info and details with me. And it was cheaper.
