Horace W. Sturgis Library

★☆☆☆☆

The Sturgis Library is one of the most iconic buildings in Kennesaw, as the first large major building, it is where KSU has begun its expansion into a incredible campus. A building that boasts a truly great rare book collection it is truly an icon for all of Cobb county.

But the years have not been kind to KSU's library, and strictly speaking its bathrooms.
the Library scored embarrassingly low except for two areas and maybe it will make sense once I have presented the ratings.

Although the library itself is a high traffic area the bathrooms rate 4 of 5 which is little to no traffic and an impressive number, the privacy rating is similar at 3 of 5, but the privacy rating is only this high for one reason. Floor two of the Library has a stall that was built for a King, it's not just big it is massive, I'm fairly certain you could fit two toilettes in this stall without a divider and the sheer distance would be privacy enough. This is where we find the Library's asterisk, the bathrooms in the Library are neither clean and the atmosphere is very poor, the bathrooms are so old they even seem dirty (1 of 5 and 1 of 5). so while it ranks well in privacy and traffic that is because these bathrooms should be avoided and everyone already knows it. Did I mention that the bathrooms even smell, not that "someone was just in there" smell, but the "oh these pipes are wrong and all the bathrooms smell, like every floor."

The Horace W. Sturgis Library ranks 1 of 5 stars.

Pro tip: stay away, beware, no trespassing... you get it. find somewhere else to do your business.
