Barnes and Noble has changed a lot over the years. What used to be a quiet book-filled space has now become a coffee-shop, toy store, and teacher store with a few books thrown in. There are aspects I like about the changes. We've gotten a lot of teaching materials from Barnes and Noble, and I've had my share of coffee from Starbuck's (even though they don't give a discount with an educator discount card. It's okay. I'm not still bitter or anything.) And there are aspects I don't like. Mostly the overpriced toys.
On to the commode:
The commode, after being changed several years ago, has since stayed the same. This is made obvious by the thick layer of dust on the wall. I'm surprised it didn't show up in the picture below. Useable, reasonably clean, trying to be stylish. The uplighting feels odd once you pay attention to it while in the stall:
Where is that light coming from? Why? What's it doing way up there? Yeah, they pay me to ask the big questions. Anyway, the rest is standard, thankfully with a hook (though it's a little too high).
Sometimes the paper mess can get out of hand, and I've been there when they've run out of paper towel for drying often enough that the thought flits through my head before entering. All in all, though, not a place I would shy away from using.
