I am amazed at all the positive reviews. Stopped by for a reading at 3:45. I was going to be a walk…read morein with my husband, toddler, and baby. Based on the reviews I thought this was going to be a "positive place" our kid was not misbehaving and our baby was quiet in her baby seat. We were looking forward to a reading together. We stood outside, upstairs in the patio section and read two signs. One was in front of the door that read "quiet please" which made us believe there was a session in place and another one in the patio saying that it was a quiet space and that no cellphones or loud noises were around. We thought we could wait but I told my husband to go downstairs with our toddler to wait since waiting could make our toddler impatient. So I waited 10 minutes to see if anyone would come out to greet us or tell us the session ended. Told my husband we could wait another 10 minutes to see if anyone would come out. I thought the door was locked since it alluded to someone inside getting a reading. So my husband finally asked me if the door was opened. I never bothered to look so I checked. Door was opened and I walked in. There was a lady on her phone and keep in mind, it's super quiet there. First, she didn't bother to look up or greet me. Second, you could look from inside looking out and she clearly saw us waiting and never came outside to ask us if we needed anything. Because as it turns out, I asked "excuse me, is there a session in place?" She said yes. So I said "do you know when the reading ends?" Since we didn't want to keep waiting. She said "what are you looking for?" I said a psychic reading. She then looks me up and down, and says, "oh sorry I'm not doing any readings today" and then quickly looks at my purse. There was a fake smile at the end. The whole time, I felt an odd feeling. Because she was not friendly. Not welcoming. Didn't bother to check on us. Saw us waiting and didn't even bother to look up when I walked in. So, I can only think 1 of 2 or all of these 2 can be true. 1. she didn't want to do a family reading. 2. She doesn't like Hispanic people. Or she just assumed I had no money. Don't bother coming here.

As soon as I stepped into the gallery, I was awed by the intricate, colorful paintings. I immediately fell in love with many of them. Ms. Dorenko greeted me with a big smile and a kind hello as my family and I looked at her artwork. If you cannot purchase one of her pieces, she does offer prints, magnets and other items for purchase. Her pieces were so beautiful; I hope to have one hanging in my home someday. Definitely visit this gallery if you're in the area!

We stopped at the gatehouse after exiting the Biltmore estate. It was during Christmas time and the…read moreseasonal displays were very nice. The shop is filled with home goods, ornaments and Biltmore related items but the whole atmosphere came off as quite pretentious to me and the prices reflected that. I did find an adorable little plushie gargoyle that I thought my niece would love but based on my overall experience, I decided against spending any of my hard-earned money here. The staff was technically welcoming but not in a warm or genuine way. I felt like I was being more closely observed than assisted and the older, stiffer employees created an uncomfortable environment. After looking around upstairs, I came down and started perusing the shelves but as soon as I looked up from what I was doing and a staff member saw me she said " your husband is in the restroom". I don't know if that comes off as weird in writing as it felt in person. I didn't ask where my husband was and I wasn't looking for him. I don't know if it was because he was the only non-white person I saw while we were there, but it didn't give the feeling that they were trying to be helpful. The shop is somewhat visually appealing but overpriced overall and definitely lacking the warmth that would make it a place I would ever return to.

Not one studio in the facility has a fixed bar. The larger class sizes left me jammed up in the corners of a small room most of the time. It also meant that the instructor could not pay attention to any specific student.

She just seemed to teach to the most advanced student in the room at the time. And, often times, even that student was left confused and scratching her head.
