It's been great having a Barnes & Noble conveniently located in the Marina since the previous…read morelocation closed. I love the book layout making it easy to find books of interest. If you're not sure what you're looking for or where to begin, just start with the "Best Sellers" table at the front of the store or look for the "Staff picks". There's also a nice selection of gift items for book lovers: candles, journals, bookmarks, mugs, etc. I personally love purchased Barnes & Noble gift cards for students.

We do go to this location more often than other Barnes locations because it is closer but once…read moreagain, we went in last night and Jasmine was visibly horrible to us. We walked in, she glared at us- I tried not to think much of it, but as she was finishing ringing me up I looked up to thank her and she was literally grimacing at me, and this was after she tried to hurriedly ring me up without even asking if I was a rewards member (I am) or anything else. I keep trying to give her the benefit of the doubt because I also work in retail, but girl just seems miserable. Literally I have NO other issues with any other employee there, everyone else has been so kind so I brought my review up to 4 stars from 3. But if you're going to give me a dirty look Jasmine, wait until I turn around. This is a smaller location but I'll continue to visit, I just really hope Jasmine isn't there- it's always uncomfortable when she is.

Why is Hudson News our only option at Airports!? Freaking LAX!…read more They have self check out which is nice and convenient. I feel like these stores aren't usually busy so not sure how necessary self check out was. But it's here and so that's a good thing for fast & easy checkout. I dislike lines and usually end up at Hudson News to avoid a sprawling line at Starbucks or McD's. Their prices are expensive but they have a wide array of drinks and snacks, a few gifts like See's Candies you can bring to others. They don't have a lot of coffee drink options though which will never cease to surprise me. And when you check out your coffee drinks, prepare for sticker shock. A bottled coffee and water cost me $13.33, sigh.

As she got older, she didn't notice that they were hiking the rate higher and higher until I took over as her Power of Attorney, looked at her checking account and they were charging her $406 PER MONTH ($13.50 per day delivery!). She has had YEARS of overpaying. New customers pay $.71-$1.43 per day, depending on their subscription plan. Any lawyers out there want to take on this Elder Abuse?

I was tired of getting bills endlessly and not knowing when I was paid up to. the final straw was the billing calls, so I told them cancel my subscription and send me a final bill because they kept insisting that i make a payment. What they failed to tell me was they couldn't cancel my subscription. I got another call from their billing center and told them I canceled 2 weeks prior when they called, again they insisted I pay what was still owing and they told me they couldn't cancel and that I needed to call customer service which I did. They wouldn't take no to canceling. They rep said she couldn't adjust my bill reflecting I should only be billed for 18 days ?? They are a headache to deal with.

Love that their set up have tables where you can have your laptop screen against a wall (open tables if I'm working is not my thing) The overall store and restrooms are pretty dated :( but it definitely is a good go-to spot if you're needing a place to sit/work. Got a coffee at the cafe (so thankful when B&N has them) and it was a good place to stay before I had to leave for LAX pickup.

I was able to stock up on a variety of foods for an early breakfast for my parents and I to have before our early flight. Of all their options their Blissful Pretzel Bun Trio Mini Ham & Turkey sandwiches caught my eye to get for my parents. I got one of their Southwest Chili Chicken salads that comes in a plastic jar. I of course refeuled the group with water from here and a Pineapple Kombucha Tea. These were all the perfect selections that held us over on this very early morning 6am flight. The lines goes in waves of stretching out the door but if you let that cool down and the people pass to rush to their gates then the there is literally no line. The man at the counter was so kind and helpful making sure I had extra condiments and utensils for my meal. It always feels nice to be around nice people.

CURRENT EVENTS! After finding out they did have 3 copies, I explained I was in O.C. and almost an hour away and wondered if they could mail me the 3 copies? Kay said sure and $20 would cover it completely. I said YES and now Saturday at noon I have not just 3 copies but an extra copy of the Business section that I actually needed. The NY TIMES cost $3 each, the Priority Mail $8.95 for a whopping total of $20.95, that Kay charged me $20 ! ? !
