My family left with far too many books (if that's a thing lol). Loved the selection and variety of items at this location.

EXTREMELY disappointed! This my first 1 star review, I've left 5 on everything else. Please read…read morewhy I believe them to be unethical. When they "buy" books from you, they give less than 10 cents for most of them. Then they throw away tons of books and CDs that they just bought from you without telling you. Only a small portion actually makes it to the shelf. Why don't they just tell the customers they won't buy them? Why would I want my things to be thrown away rather than go to a little free library to be read??? This seems like false advertising for a business that advertises being eco friendly and "saving" books. I loved them before I found this out and now I feel disturbed that they hide this from customers.

Great selection of used books and some new. Price is half of the original list price but if you…read morebought the book on amazon, walmart.com, eBay, etc. you probably got just as good deal if not better. They also buy used books, videos, cd's, records, and games. Yesterday I brought six boxes of books, video games, and movies; most were in like new condition. They might sell one quarter of these in the store and ship the rest to their warehouse or for recycling or use in other locations. I was given the great total of $16.11. It was really an insult. Many of these were coffee table size books, and books about things like aircraft, aircraft carriers, Titanic, architecture, history, music. Many originally cost over $40 and were like brand new. Don't expect much but at least they're recycling things for you if you're gonna throw them away anyway.

If there is anything more wonderful than lots of books, it is lots of books mixed in with the aroma…read moreof freshly brewed coffee wafting in the air and the sound of classical music playing in the background. Well, maybe not entirely classical as there was a bit of Katy Perry's "Fight Song" set to violin and that was pretty sweet too. Add the friendly "welcome to the store" when we walked in (through the music section...and they have vinyl records there...do people still play vinyl...I remember when it was the only option) and we were inclined to like this B&N right out of the gate. All of the constructive criticism offered by Charles F in his good review are spot on. This is like a gigantic swap meet in some respects too with the old records and he racks and bins of deep discount books along with best sellers. But depending on what one is looking for, that could come in handy too. And then there is the huge selection of their regular stock. And a big children's section if you are trying to encourage children to learn the value and delights of holding a good old fashioned book in their hands and diving into the world of possibilities books hold for them. We went in for what we thought would be an hour and but for needing to be somewhere else, we reluctantly left two hours later with still more shopping we could have done. The customer service people were very helpful too. There was a specific book in which I was interested and while they had one on the shelf the book was damaged. Or as the service person says, "This looks manhandled." Yep. And since I plan to display it, that is a problem. She offered to order another one for us and have it delivered to our home or to the store. Nice. We took her up on it. (I'm doubtful though...this book is out of print...if the book actually arrives this will be 5 stars. :-) ) We three years after moving to the Treasure Valley to explore Boise's Barnes and Noble. We will go back soon. THIS N THAT: 1) PARKING: Private lot which seemed to have lots of space. 2) ACCESSIBILITY: Accessible parking in lot. Level in and throughout the store. Aisleways are ample. Coffee bar is "set up" but there is a ramp on one side. Standard height seating in coffee area. Accessible loo for him and her. 3) COFFEE BAR: We didn't sample the brew or snacks there, but there is a coffee bar in the middle of the store that appears to offer both Seattle's Best and Starbuck's. Several tables with chairs and a few stools at a high counter. The tables had lots of people reading and working at them.

Not a local book shop feel but staff is friendly and helpful in finding product. Don't have the…read morebook you want? Have no fear they can probably order it! Coffee? Check, pit stop at the Starbucks located in the center of the store. Line to check out can be long at times but what can you do but read while you wait? Good rewards member program to boot. P.S. Did someone say Lego's? They have some awesome sets to pick from!
