Great location!

With nearby eateries and a movie theater, this B&N is perfectly situated in this shopping area of the Marina. It's a two-story building, with a wide selection of books and clean restrooms. I do wish they had more places to sit, however.

• Pros: open late, lots of great food nearby, parking lot
• Cons: limited seating

An easy-access resource for books of any stripe, with impressive children's, business and bestseller sections.
