On a Monday evening, there was a decent amount of foot traffic in this mall. Though the mall walker…read morebrigade was out in force and two securit guards were also on patrol. About ten percent of the stores were closed, but the rest were open for business, including a large number of kiosks for jewelry, accessories and phone repair. Huge parking lot and a number of entrances. The mall is shaped like a very tall "Y" with Target and Keating furniture at the top, JCPenney and Scheels at the bottom. I think the best and easiest entrance is at the south end next to Scheels and then you can go up one end and down the other. Easy. [Review 10607 overall, 375 of 2019.]

As a new mother, I went into the mothers room to nurse my son. I was in there about 20 minutes when…read moresomeone saying they were from security came banging on the door, screaming and demanding I open the door. I was terrified by the sound of the voice and how aggressive it was. I covered up and opened the door to a women in normal clothes, and she realized I was actually nursing my son and she got all sheepish and said something about the lights being off in the bathroom (a different room than the nursing room) I was so scared because for all I knew, it was some crazy person banging on the door and I'm alone in the room holding my newborn son. Apparently there was a report of someone doing drugs in a family restroom (and they checked the nursing room too I guess). I would have been far more understanding if security told me they had a report of drug activity in the bathroom, rather than the weird light excuse. I spent a long time thinking about how impractical that was and how I can't even use the nursing room then if I have to worry about the motion lights of another room or I will get security screaming at me. When I called mall security about the problem, the woman was rude and didn't even apologizing for scaring me and my son when we were doing nothing wrong, saying she was just doing her job, which I understand but it was just not handled appropriately at all. All I wanted to do was feed my son in private. I am very nervous about using the nursing room in the future after this incident, but I appreciate the mall general manager for hearing my complaint and offering to talk to security about how to appropriately deal with issues regarding the nursing room which should be a relatively calm space for a baby and mother. Would be a one star review if not for her, will definitely change back to a one star if I ever experience this again though.

Parking at this location can be hard to come by, because this Target is a part of the mall (has been for forever like 80s/90s). There needs to be more parking around the Target. The customer service is pretty good! It is pretty clean and it has what I need! Bathrooms COULD smell better, but overall I'm a fan.

It's not easy to see from one department to the other due to solid walls throughout the center of the store. That made it challenging to find the men's department without help. Once there, there is a lot and they do have some prices but it's all quite high due to the BOGO on offer. I just want ONE shirt, why are you making me buy two of them? After checking several different displays and the clearance area, I decided to go without. If you're looking to fill a wardrobe, then this would work. If you're looking for just one quick item, perhaps not so much. [Review 10760 overall, 528 of 2019.]

Next, this JCPennys has Bismarck's only Sephora. Although I'd love a big Sephora, this mini Sephora does the trick! The guest service is meh. It is okay. Hence, the 3 Stars given. Sometimes the employees just stand around and joke around with each other when clearly there's a line building for checkout. Sometimes there's nobody around to ask for assistance. Overall, this place is well maintained. This JCPennys has been an anchor store of the Kirkwood Mall for forever, so it's kind of dated. It would be cool if it was revamped a little. It is clean and spacious. I'll always look for the deals here!

They're lucky they are the only one for hundreds of miles and that they're not my normal Kohl's, we were just in Bismarck for the day. Oh and when I told the lady checking me out she said "oh well sorry". I'm not saying the store has to be perfect but it had every brand, every size and gender all just thrown around in the kids section.
