My recent visit to the Holborn store was of somewhat a pleasant experience from start to finish. I was greeted by a colleague of blacks whom I have to say had impeccable manners the young lady was called Karen. Upon my entrance Karen greeted me with a very warm welcome and made me feel comfortable. Her offer of help was greatly appreciated. I would highly recommend this store and shall be returning soon.
