"Really good library to study, its a shame is lacking on books"
Proshka B.
"I go to the library to try to study and the first thing I see is 4 children screaming to my left. To my right are 3 trombones playing what is supposed to be “music”, at least if they played well I could half study, but they play, and barely. I think it's calmer to study inside a bus. There were more people and they were all saying the same thing."

"A prime spot for reading and computer use. It's air-conditioned, very quiet, and has great breakfast spots nearby. It has a good selection of books."
