My friends and I have gone to their ice rink a few times over the last few weeks, and it is the…read morebest rink that we have skated on. The ice is always smooth at the beginning of public skate, they have really good rental skates as they were sharp, and they have walkers provided for those learning. I paid $2 for entry as a student and not a resident of the city. When I went, they did not do skate sharpening because they have over 200 rental skates that needed sharpening. Best ice rink I've gone to since I started skating.

A day that was supposed to end by 11 PM didn't end until midnight and they had to skip medals/awards ceremonies due to the late hour. We ended up skipping practice ice the next morning - which we prepaid for. Since it's at 6:30 AM. And our 9 PM event wasn't over until 11 PM.

The Cuyahoga County Public Library system is pretty fabulous, and in total, it boasts one of the…read morelargest book collections in the United States. This fact has helped local supporters note that the NE Ohio/Greater Cleveland area has one of the largest and most comprehensive public library systems in the nation. (Now if only the County could get every denizen to really educate himself -- and create some sort of brain bubble in the region. Just a wish.) This is a review of the Beachwood city branch, a small yet nicely remodeled facility. There are great nonfiction and children's sections; however, the fiction selection is a bit lacking. The Saul Eisen Reading Garden offers a tranquil, secluded reading space. For research projects, one might be better served at the Mayfield and South Euclid city branches (the latter is set in an exquisite old local castle-esque building). All of the branches -- east and west -- afford the opportunity to find a quiet place to get lost in a great piece of literature and/or media. Grade: A

Starbucks gets too rowdy after about 8:30 AM, and as a transplant I was at a loss as to where I should go to study. A friend suggested this branch of the Cuyahoga County Public Library. I can't vouch for the selection of books or the services they offer, but as a quiet study environment, this place is great! There are plenty of plugs for your computer (yay!) at each work station, so you don't have to bring an extension cord or awkwardly drape anything over your neighbor just for a hookup. My only beef was that the quiet cubbies were along the perimeter of the main room, which meant that it did get a little louder as the day went on. In any case, it beats the 'bucks, and helped me get my morning off to a productive start!

This is by far the greatest Jewish Heritage Museum I've ever visited! I like how they don't focus…read moreon the bad stuff, although it is addressed because it needs to be. The staff was very nice and friendly and accommodating to me and my service dog. They explained how the order of the exhibits went and it was all very interesting. You start with the history of Judaism and the artifacts are amazing. There are TVs playing throughout the exhibits with history videos and people's personal memories and there are plaques on the walls and at each exhibit explaining everything. Then you move on to the more recent history and current events and I appreciate the history of all the donated artifacts. I am not from Cleveland but they do an outstanding job of honoring the area Jewry. I thought that was great. The Holocaust part of the exhibits was not as overwhelming as most other places and I respect that quite a bit. It's something that needs to be forever remembered but many places only focus mainly on that and there is more to being a Jew than that! I spent several hours there and although I am a bit of a historian I learned quite a bit so I loved that! I can't say enough great things about this place. The parking is free, the admission rates are very reasonable, everyone is so nice and friendly, and the gift shop had a lot of great things ranging in price. I would give this museum 10 stars if I could and I hope to visit again sometime!

The staff greeted us warmly, gave us a map after we paid our admission and told us about a docent tour that would be starting in an hour which we were welcome to join. We started off with the artifacts sections. Although they were replicas I was literally blown away by some of the pieces. Among those pieces was a replica of the statue of Moses by Michelangelo and a miniature of a beautiful ark you would find in a synagogue. We then went on the docent tour which was entitled "Israel now and then". We first saw a brief movie and then got to learn about the Jerusalem and the people of the Holy Land. This area mostly had pictures and videos telling you how Israel became an independent state. The last section we visited was the permanent exhibition. Since our tour ran overboard we couldn't stay here to take everything in. Most of it deal with the Jewish history in Cleveland and as I went through most of the exhibits I noticed quite a similarity to what the immigrants faced here to what they faced in New York. I did get to learn about the origins of the May company as well as American Greeting cards as well as the struggles they faced. This section takes about 2 hours to see everything but we just skimmed it and took in the highlights. The museum has a small store with all types of gifts and right now the focus is on Passover since we are in the middle of the holiday. We had a great visit and a great way to tour one of the many museum Cleveland has to offer. Located on Richmond Road in Beechwood it is an easy drive to I 271.
