A wonderful option if looking for a comfortable place to work for a day. Today, I used the "study…read morepod" at this library branch. There's only one pod so it is available on a first come first serve basis. The pod contains furniture that folds out--one table and two benches--plus several outlets. I was able to do some work calls from the pod without feeling disruptive to other patrons. after my calls were over, I vacated the pod in case someone else needed that space and works from a regular table in the library. The tables have plenty of outlets in the library is spacious. The best part, is that I did not need a local library card in order to use the study pod. Since I was on a road trip and just needing a place to work in transit, this was very helpful. Other features: --In the children's section, there is both a puzzle table and an art table, in case the children want activities other than reading. --In addition to the study pod, there is a conference room that can be checked out.

I bring my toddler here in the mornings and it's quiet and she loves playing with the kitchen and reading books. They have a bunch of computers and printers if that's what you're looking for. Getting a library card is easy and fast. They also have plenty of people in the library to help you find whatever book or category you're looking for. They do morning events for families, toddlers and big kids. Schedules are posted up front with times and dates. They have something for all ages which is good when you have three kids (one being a toddler and two being older) very friendly staff and plenty of parking. It's very peaceful here.

We arrived and called the number as directed (during business hours) & no one picked up. We called the other number & was just told we need to wait until someone showed up. 20 minutes later, the person working the booth walked up and got upset with us in "not reading the instructions right" before purchasing. We told him how we found the option, offered him to read what we read, & he said "no it's right there, you just didnt read it" and didnt care to explain. I spent time during this exchange and afterwards looking online various ways and there is not one site that says that. Then he told us he had been "running around the last 4 hours" and that we were basically inconveniencing him for showing up on the hours of his work day. "Can I take a break first ? I can't do this right now. I can refund you and look at places you all can park but I promise it's not a spot you want". It was not the lunch hour yet either. We decided to give him a hour to himself to sort out his emotions on his designated day to work which he was amenable to and "I'll be here all day". We stopped by the PMSI management company of the garage (a few doors down) and the front desk was empathetic but did not care for us to escalate it to someone and just said "he is the one who runs things" at the garage. Clearly their level of professionalism was enabling staff to perform at the level that we were experiencing. We came back around 4pm and he wasn't there again. He showed up then stated he only had 1 spot "and it's so narrow no one wants to park there. One of our staff gave it up this morning and it's just hard to get out of it. You're welcome to go take a look but I promise you won't want it". We looked around and there were plenty of available spots per the app and in plain view, beyond this security gate one would go through (after receiving the access card). The spots were all extremely narrow but this guy swore up and down no spots at all were available unless we were going to apply for the apartments (4 winds or the strand) "I have a lot of spots for that though". Clearly this guy had some particular opinions of us already or was feeling some way the day we went in because that was the strangest thing I have ever noticed or experienced. Since he was so adamant on how we could go look ourselves & how much the spot was bad, we decided to save our valuable time and asked for a full refund and found a better, user friendly lot for our vehicles instead. Looks like some people had odd situations in the past yet I recommend going somewhere else that will respect your money and time more with less attitude.

No sales person from a kiosk in the middle of the mall harassing you. Major stores, better dining options, easy access. Best Buy, Dillard's, Dicks Sporting Goods, Books-A-Million, LA Fitness, and so much more. The parking lots are huge with directions clearly marked, well-lit and well maintained. Amazing. I would still remain vigilant against any wrong-doers, but overall, I feel safe coming here to shop, any time, day or night. I do like the design of this shopping center, and I feel like it is well designed, from start to finish. My main complaint here is that it is difficult to access the Starbucks when you are leaving. You have to make at least one U-turn in order to get in and then a U-turn to get back on the highway. Other than that, all is great!

As I was driving down it caught my eye and I passed it without processing what it was. Upon backing up and looking at it again I was pretty freaked out. Of course the cops were called and an investigation began. Yep. I was involved in a big crime. I'm only pulling your chain a little bit...as it turns out it was the ribcage of a wild pig. But it sure did look like it was human. At the end of Lake Road is lovely Lake Pontchartrain. People like to come out here and fish and to birdwatch and sometimes just to relax. You can see the city of New Orleans on a clear day or night and that's pretty freaking cool. It's really picturesque. I've also watched some pretty awesome sunsets here. Just the other night in fact I saw one of the best sunsets I've ever had the pleasure of laying my eyes on. This place is just great. It's definitely worth an hour or two of your time. You'll probably see me there! **400**

Once you choose a spot, you can either pay through text, an app, by phone, or by the provided kiosks. I chose the text option and it was super easy! All you have to do is inform them of your license plate number, and pay for however many hours you want to stay there. They even send you text reminders when your time is close to expiring and once it has actually expired. How awesome is that?! Although I feel the price was extremely steep, it is in a high touristy area, so that's to be somewhat expected. Regardless of the price, I felt this parking structure was well placed and very very convenient when it came to paying.

That was 2019, pre-covid, when the menus were better and the stupid Covid protocol wasn't mandating the dining car remain closed and the Porters bring the food to your room. Digressing here :-) But today we've actually here for my sweetheart to board the train and Hattiesburg may just be our future routine train departure point. Since the train companies and the city of Mobile can't get their acts together we are forced to choose New Orleans, LA, Meridian, MS or further points for boarding a train to go up northeast. This one suits us just fine and is closer. There's handicap and temporary parking right by the front door, and there's free overnight parking directly across the street. The seating is old school church-like wood pews and there's several vending machines with drinks and snacks. The one employee that we came in contact with was very friendly and pleasant and she was quite helpful even opening and holding the door for us before boarding, nice. I also enjoyed reading about the history of the station, and some of the old pictures and posters that were hung on the walls all around. This is a beautiful old train station built in 1910 by Southern Railway Company and is an impressive one, designed in the Italian Renaissance style with a clay-tile roof. It has a 14,000 square foot interior and included a 4,000 square-foot passenger waiting room. In 2000, The City of Hattiesburg purchased the depot and 3.2 acres of land from Norfolk Southern Railways initiating a seven-year, $10 million restoration and improvement project. The restored Hattiesburg Depot was rededicated in April 2007 to function as an intermodal transportation center for rail, bus, and taxi services. It would also serve as a space for meetings, exhibitions, and special events. Bottle line: there are some funky train stations across the country, but this one is adorable, quaint, and a pleasure to hang out in while you're waiting on your choo choo.
