And one of the Security guards was even taking a piss in front of my Mother and I in the parking lot. I walk here daily and had a good experience with their previous Security Guards. Very very very nice. But these 2.... rude and pissing in front of women and kids is disgusting. If you work here, why didn't you go inside of the building where we seen you walk put of. Don't blame the piss smell on dogs or homeless. It's the rude Security Guards that work there.

I noticed around me that most of the tables were filled with homeless people. I was by myself as a young women and even though they have every right to be there, it did not feel safe and it smelled bad. I had to leave so just a heads up for anyone going, please be mindful that this library seems like safe haven for the homeless to go. Still a beautiful library but I just didn't feel the safest.

I took my daughter to the Burnett Library to get some books to keep her busy over the summer. The…read morelibrary was clean, the environment was quiet, and a librarian asked my daughter if she needed any help. I was impressed. When we were ready to check-out, we lined up at the counter; my daughter was first. The clerk behind the counter did not look up. She tapped impatiently on the counter for my daughter to place her books there. My daughter and I stared at one another incredulously. It was not until she looked up and saw me that her demeanor abruptly changed. We were definitely not pleased with the customer service we received from this library.

A special thank you to Emily, our wedding coordinator, who was absolutely amazing. She was always pleasant to work with, helped us navigate every detail, coordinated with vendors, offered wonderful ideas, and greatly reduced our stress throughout the planning process. Carlos was equally outstanding. He assisted with so many aspects of the wedding, including alcohol selections and pricing, and was always professional, helpful, and accommodating. Maria Plata and the catering team exceeded every expectation. The food, service, and attention to detail were exceptional. Everything was beautifully executed, and our guests are still talking about how wonderful the experience was. Every member of the team delivered five-star service. As a mother, seeing my daughter have the wedding of her dreams meant everything to me. Thank you for creating memories that our family will cherish forever. We could not be happier with the fairytale wedding you help create for my baby girl!

The banquet rooms vary in size. There is a large atrium, ideal for large events. The natural lighting in this atrium is simply beautiful. There are plenty of clean bathrooms on the property.

This center has a busy calendar of exercise classes and information on health, housing and finances. This is something for everyone!

What I like about this library: This is a massive, beautiful…read morefacility right in the heart of downtown Long Beach. One of the coolest features is the archive and history room, which houses a lot of fascinating historical books as well as the Medal of Honor awarded to the library's namesake, Billie Jean King! That's definitely something you don't see every day. The interior is well-designed with plenty of space between the books, computers, and study tables, making it easy to browse their extensive collection of media. Additionally, the recent installation of the steel cage barriers outside has resolved the issues with the homeless population loitering right at the entrance, making the exterior look much cleaner and more welcoming. What I don't like about this library: The parking situation is a bit frustrating. The lot directly adjacent to the library only offers 30 MINUTES of FREE PARKING. By the time you walk to and from your car, you really only have about 25 minutes to find your books and check out if you want to avoid paying. Your other option is to park in the lot behind the F&M building, which gives you two hours free, but that requires about a 10-minute walk each way.

Kubo continues to be a Filipino-owned community venue that houses a retail space,…read moredisplaying/selling a variety of Pinoy-inspired merch. My wife and I stopped in during a visit to the Bixby Knolls neighborhood of Long Beach, and was impressed by the collection of curated products, neatly displayed across the space. Folks were setting up tables for one of their many cultural events/gatherings, but their space is big enough to handle it while shoppers browse. Their retail space includes a collection of 'Filipino Komiks & Kids Lit' and prints from local/Filipino artists (two of which we've already displayed at our home). This time, ended up bringing home a 'Bangus Pro Shop' ballcap ($24.95) and Filipino Birthday Greeting Card ($5.50). The payment processing is modern, using Shopify, their website platform provider. And their associates continue to be so friendly and helpful. Kubo is just a great place to visit.

When we came in, they were setting up for an event later in the day. With that being said, I can tell there is a lot of engagement and activities for the community! My fiancé and I came to stop by, to purchase gifts for a friend. He felt very seen and felt with every little book, trinket, and toy. I also felt delight seeing myself, being represented. I loved seeing the handmade items, small business items being sold, and books. The most impressive part was the books and toys for infants/toddlers. We purchased some "first words in Tagalog" books and a toy. This place is definitely worth visiting! The girls here were very inviting and nice. It was a pleasure stopping by and we hope to come back again!

Well, it took me a couple of hours to complete everything needed, I think this is fair because I did not come prepared with all the paperwork filled out if I had I think I would've been out in less than an hour maybe even less than 30 minutes. I would also like to say that at first it's a little frustrating because there's not a line you can walk directly to, but then upon second glance, the check-in system and the exceptionally kind gentlemanly receptionist was super helpful and would put you in queue for exactly where you needed to go. I actually found this rather efficient. Furthermore, everyone was extremely helpful with anything that I lacked knowledge on. I got the permit and started the roofing project and everything has been going very smoothly and I'm just very impressed with I do about 100s a year all over Southern California so I experience. The last thing I would like to say was, I really quite had a great time at the office because the morning I was there it seems like the coordinators of the front office a couple of very kind ladies. It seemed to me like we're organizing the staff and having a kindly meeting about how best to operate, it seem very cordial and productive... Then in the middle of the meeting, some soup walked in, does seem like Very butt hurt. He wasn't invited to the meeting and made a big stink out of it, and it clearly made everyone extremely uncomfortable. They were trying to whisper, but it was pretty obvious though there was a ton of office drama going on... Listen, I don't know who's on the right side here, but I thought it was pretty funny and from my perspective, no matter who is right the "Suite made everyone super uncomfortable so I thought it was hilarious. Anyway, I still recommend the city of Lakewood if you need to get a roofing permit... In fact they are the only game in town

But due to work, I have only been able to take a few classes throughout the years. But I do love the variety of classes that they offer and how constant their schedule is. If you are looking for a Japanese school for your child to attend, they offer that. If you would like to just learn more about the community through the different cultural classes, just sign up for the emails and you can be alerted for upcoming classes that they offer. I've taken amigurumi (crochet), ikebana (Japanese flower arrangement), and a cooking class. All of the instructors are great and mostly volunteers. So it just shows you what a great community there is. They have festivals through the year and also help put on the West Covina Cherry Blossom Festival. They also host the West Covina obon at the center but it is organized by the Buddhist church which is based out of the community center. So there is just a lot of activities that you can get involved with.
