Since being at the University of Kentucky, I've learned to appreciate the William T. Young Library…read more When you walk in, you're greeted by five floors of study space. The higher you go, the quieter it gets, which is great for focusing. Each floor has a mix of open tables and private rooms to study, so every student can find their own ideal spot. There are plenty of seating options, from regular chairs to comfy couches. The staff you see are almost always helpful if you need anything. I love coming here to study for tests/exams because I always get more Motivated. There are also so many resources available, and the Starbucks inside makes it easy to grab food without leaving the building.

The William T. Young Library is beyond amazing!! I am a student at the University of Kentucky, and…read moreit is one of my favorite spots to relax and work on my homework. It's so much more than just another university library. As soon as you walk in you are greeted with a huge pillar-type structure in the middle of the building. You'll find that if you go to the 5th floor there is a walkway to the middle of the pillar where there are group studies. It is truly beautiful to be able to see everything and just enjoy the views while studying. There are also study areas on every floor so it provides students with many options on where they would like to sit to study, whether that is group studying or using a private two-seater bookshelf seating to quietly study. The library also has a humongous Starbucks on the first floor where many of the students go to get a snack while they're working. Overall, there are so many resources available to everyone which makes this library stand out from many others.

Early Saturday morning I discovered water flooding the laundry room of my significant other's…read moretownhouse and realized the water heater was leaking. I turned off the water supply rendering the condo with no water. Now what? Who do I call in Lexington, a town I'm not that familiar with much. She called her sister in Versailles but her recommendation of a past plumber she had used previously was closed for the weekend. So I did a search on Yelp first, skipping over a couple of plumbers with some not so good reviews and found Bluegrass advertised as being 24/7 and Shonda C.'s review listed first. She is in my friends list and I trust her reviews. I also saw photo's of the business owner and his family, plus some of his past work, indicating to me I was looking at an honest man. But to be sure, I utilized BBB for a background check and found zero complaints in the past year, an A+ rating and that they were BBB Accredited. So I gave them a call. Ron answered the phone at 7:52 am on a Saturday. This was a huge indicator to me I was going to be doing business with a good company. He told me he had one customer ahead of me but that he would be over between 11:30-12:30 and that he would call thirty minutes ahead of time to let me know he was on his way. He called me back at 10:26 am and arrived in 15 minutes. He assessed the work to be done, quoted a price, then left to pick up a new water heater and associated parts & pieces and arrived back around an hour later. I doubled checked with my sister, who owns five houses, on his quoted price and found he came in little bit less than her prediction. Ron and his son, who was helping him, installed a new water heater, and upgraded the water pipes and gas line, along with new valves on both, to meet today's codes. He completed the work in two and a half hours. We were completely 100% satisfied with the work, his timeliness, consideration of cleanliness and knowledge of his trade. Would not hesitate to call him again for any plumbing needs.

Ron came out and cleared the pipe in no time, left no mess, and charged a fair price. He was super friendly, nice guy. Glad we could hire a locally owned small business that cares.

I have to confess though that, on this particular day, I was visiting in order to visit the rotunda which features the world's largest ceiling clock, a 5-story Foucault pendulum, and a frieze depicting the history of the horse on the Bluegrass. Beautiful! It was also clear that this is a "living library" -- with many patrons (including school students), signs for community events, and Ask a Librarian research assistance. There is a parking garage next door (the library validates for up to two hours) and some street parking.

Won't return phone calls, won't respond to messages. Sound like a trustworthy company?? Sent home early many times bc no work then given ultimatum in an emergency to stay or turn in keys. Was told if I didn't turn keys in DURING THE EMERGENCY, that money would be illegally deducted from my final check, for them to pick the truck up from my residence. All they had to do was literally wait for me to get back from the hospital, and bc I quit, I would have GLADLY taken the truck in. Petty and ridiculous!! Still waiting for my two last, hard earned, shortened due to having no work, checks! !

Honest and reasonably priced. How nice to find such a service. They are now our plumbers of choice!read more
